William Contraalto posted:It's pretty simple. You and all the hateful people can self-segregate away into random basement meetings and hooking up with neo-Nazis, but you can't enforce your beliefs about who constitutes a woman on the rest of humanity. You also can't do this while serving the public, so you can't conspire to murder all trans people by taking over shelters and support groups.

Sneakster posted:I think women have the right to determine what a woman is and who they associate with, and that doesn't somehow legalize murder. Hmm, and now you've switched to arguing that white women should be allowed to exclude women of color... Fascinating.

Sneakster posted:If it's illegal to discriminate on the grounds of sex, a terf club by definition can't legally exist. The basic human rights of gay people, eh, whatever, just dating. It ain't my fault you're too cowardly to come out and say what you really mean, and instead end up saying things that leave the door open to discriminating by race, by sexual orientation, by ability, or by class. Granted, given the gold-star obsession of your ilk, you're probably fine with the second one lol.

Illegal to discriminate in public business and poo poo, as in to exclude people from public life. If it was actually illegal to discriminate on the grounds of sex in all areas, there would be no women-only spaces already. That's why I've been talking about trans people being fired, or denied housing and services.

Sneakster posted:There's a concerted effort to dismantle women's rights to physical autonomy, and asserting that lesbians have no right to association is essentially the point of not allowing them to discriminate against cis men. I don't think eroding their legal rights further is acceptable because it isn't "already" worse. This is a thread where people post about how identity politics is bad, a distraction, killing the Democratic Party, people are openly shielding you, and you still don't have the guts to openly say what you want to say. Pitiful.

Sneakster posted:I don't think feminism is radical, nor am I the one advocating for removing lesbians legal right to association without being pressured into conversion therapy because not being attracted to trans women makes them transphobic. Okay, so you're opposed to liberalism, but you're also not a radical, so by definition you're some degree of right-winger. Now we just gotta pin you down to bog-standard conservative, fascist-adjacent, or full Nazi.

Sneakster posted:Communist and feminist I suppose. I'm also marginally transgender and queer. I don't think men, even men that identify as women, and can pass at that, have a right to women's spaces. It's incredibly, disgustingly chauvinist and misogynistic to assert women's rights, which is what these legal considerations are, are just a flippant little thing to push aside for men that assert they have a right to them. I also don't think the morality of it is something anyone who's given it any thought can treat as a simple thing. Okay, so you're lying about being trans in an extremely clumsy way, or you're in need of immediate psychiatric intervention. So, having established you are a liar or operating under a dangerous level of clinical depression, the question becomes, "why should anyone listen to you?" and I'm sure you'll grunt out some semicoherent blather about liberalism!!! women's rights!!!!! transness isn't real!!!!!!! in response to this extremely salient question.

It might be the case that, even if you relate more to female gender norms, you're smaller than most women, pass for a girl without trying, feel explicitly uncomfortable presenting as male, are pretty much only considered approachable by girls who range from kind of gay to just gay, and are given uncomfortable attention from "straight" men, you still don't have an explicit right to intrude on women's spaces. BENGHAZI 2 posted:Ah yes I believe that you're not a transphobe guy who refers to trans women as men It could perhaps be the case that women are physically subjugated due to their role in procreation and stature, and that their legal rights as a class of people take precedence over my right to assert that I should be allowed in their spaces because that's the morally right thing. Maybe I even see being used as an excuse to dismantle their rights as a sickening thing that I'm morally obligated to oppose out of human decency.

I'm somewhat concerned that Hillary is going to run again, and I wouldn't put it past the Democratic voters to be on board. I can hear "Fight Song" playing with confetti again. This infighting between moderates and progressives is bad, but the moderates just aren't budging on anything and it is asinine. Kamela Harris is adopting some Bernie ideas like Medicare for All, maybe that's a sign that they'll at least pretend. Mokelumne Trekka fucked around with this message at 04:52 on Sep 4, 2017 |

Seriously, this thing is infinitesimal. quote:Maybe I'm transgendered and think that doesn't give me the right to women's spaces, and even if I psychologically identify with and short of a uterus practically am one, doesn't change that I don't have the right to assert control over them.

Jesus, start your own thread to discuss this and where you are starting from because you are either a tremendous autismal pendant or just a troll.

This Verrit thing looks like something from Hillarys 2016 campaign. I guess the concept is a filter that blocks fake news. But it is obviously partisan. Hillary claiming truth and verified data as her cause is like Al Gore with climate change. Once these dead horses claim a cause, it is tainted by their baggage. They have Messiah complexes and won't gently caress off. Seriously, they need to go away. Dem Party needs new faces.

The people punching left the hardest are the same people who would instantly be out of jobs if the party moved left.
