    fine... how many of your jobs in the last 15-20 years were self created/sole proprietorships?

    employ anybody else?

    I think it's indicative of the hyper-partisanship of (some of) our resident liberals.

    I'll skip the more detailed analysis you're not likely to read and just say that UA and FF are, to put it simply, fuckin' deranged. Even the more conservative posters here regularly disagree with them because their positions on issues both partisan and non-partisan are so absurd and misinformed. If you find yourself on their side more and more, it's a good idea to ask yourself why.

    But instead you choose to be like...

    Get fucked. That bullshit "transphobia" label isn't a blunt instrument you may use to silence dissent and coerce unconditional support.

    That only shows you don't bother understanding, and simply attribute some generic point of view to me.

    I generally have no truck with their views. The only thing we've ended up agreeing with lately is your (and others) desire to oversimplify complicated issues in order to stifle debate.

    Yeah, it's not transphobia if you don't think trans identities are even real.
    Oh, wait, that's exactly what it is.

    That, or maybe the people that have been reading your posts for years can tell you're not actually the sort of person you imagine yourself to be, and we refuse to reinforce your self serving delusions? :shrug:

    Do you find this traumatizing? Is it perhaps your own personal Vietnam? :bergman:

    Then perhaps consider that they might desire to unnecessarily overcomplicate simple issues for the same reason and the rest of us see through their tactics now? :shrug:

    He's literally saying it isn't the same thing as a war. LOL. Jesus, what about this topic turns off so many brains in otherwise intelligent people?

    That may be how YOU see it, but your opinions aren't universally binding.

    Just yesterday you were speculating on what sort of person Amaris is and how she must behave in real life. What makes you more authoritative than anyone else? :chris:

    I believe I was open about it being a figurative wager, and not a statement of fact. I could be wrong.

    That's not the alternative to your personal beer goggles being the standard.

    Yeah, they should instead be pink hair goggles, and squeaky voice earbuds.
