I think that the anti-abortion court ruling is going to end up spectacularly backfiring on the GOP. The reason why the Democrats have failed to gain any new strongholds in the past fifty years has been partly due to the fact that, even if you live in the most conservative state in the entire...

It really tells you all you need to know about someone if they say, "My culture made me do it."

Please, support the Brigid Alliance, and pass on knowledge of it to anybody that you think would support it. https://brigidalliance.org/ They are a charity that helps women that may need to travel long distances in order to get abortions.

@DrZoidberg I am going to cut down this tit for tat conversation because I think that we are wandering too far over too many different topics. The "one step backwards" that you are talking about has been directly caused by your anti-woke crusade. You are not helpless to stop what is happening...

The "army" includes straight people that are also tired of living under a system where they are judged and harassed just for being themselves. Many straight people, in our society, are tired of being told they should not be allowed to pursue a close friendship just because that friendship MIGHT...

For one thing, I again resent being called "woke." I am a queer that grew up in the 1980's and 1990's, and furthermore, I am also a zoo, which gives me additional personal insight into the anatomy of hate. My views on this subject are based on half of a lifetime of experience, not on a popular...

I still have to live with being transgender, and I actually am justified in doing whatever I have to do in order to make sure that I am safe in my day-to-day life. Literally everything else will always come second, and it should. Hegelianism is cancer. I am not under any obligation to...

You cannot understand the patchwork nightmare of the United States without actually living here. Unfortunately, it is only going to get more complicated over here for a while.

Putler is basically ruining his people's lives by driving wealth out of his country. The only country losing HNWIs nearly so fast is China, even them not as dramatically fast.

Well, Russia is an evil imperialist regime. Do you expect them to behave like a normal country?

I Well, I had what would now be called "woke" views before the word "woke" was being used, but I have my own reasons why. I grew up in a state where gay sex was a felony, and defense attorneys were still trying to use the "gay panic defense" in court, which is literally the defense, "My client...

Ideology has an impact. Individualist employers are less authoritarian and less likely to demand comformity, tending to focus on the bottom line and not caring if their employees fuck each other on the clock as long as the company stays in the black. Individualist employees are likely to find a...

Excuse me, that party was an important party in the history of DANISH, not Swedish, politics. Jeez. *head-desks* Why does someone from Sweden have to start talking about Janteloven, anyway?

^Edited the above due to the fact that I was thinking too fast and conflated two countries together. My intellect got ahead of my common sense. I am going to add, as a separate note, that there is a very natural reason why the Swedish people would be sympathetic to the idea of compromise. They...

I am aware of the Law of Jante. I have met other Scandinavians, and some of them I have met believe that the idea that this is uniquely Scandinavian is at least slightly exaggerated. We, in English-speaking culture, have a similar concept to the idea that you should keep your agreements. We...
