Current Affairs 2024 POTUS race

Ok mate. Whatever you say.

Yeah but you get my point.
I hate Trump but not without reason.
I dont think it's some sort of misguided irrational action that can just be laughed off.
Coming on here telling Americans they have TDS and then proclaiming that you are left leaning in political nature isnt going to win you many friends.

This is where the MAGA narrative goes off the rails

No one is "pushing kids down the path" of changing their gender. No one. That's a MAGA fear mongering talking point.

What the other side wants to do is provide care for those kids/teens if they are having those feelings.

It's not the new "go-to thing" FFS. It's simply being a decent human being and recognizing some people struggle with this identity. People are only seeing this as the "new go-to thing" b/c it's being addressed as an issue that affects some people.

I'm old enough to remember a time when gay people had to stay in the closet for years, sometimes for their whole life. It's now something that is more accepted. It's not that "more people are gay now" than 100 years ago. It's only that more people today can be comfortable living what they know to be true about themselves, rather than hiding in the closet, which is what society demanded in the past.

The same can be said on the trans topic

Exactly. Same as how left-handedness didn’t magically jump from occurring in about 3% of the population in 1920 to 12% in 1960, and then never move off that line for the next 60 years. Parents just stopped actively suppressing it.

That's fantastic news

I have a strange feeling if Kamala wins we won’t be seeing you again anyway… this is just an easy get out for you

Your premise is wrong. Biden won in 2020 and I still stayed.

Yes… sadly you did

you think the US born child of an illegal immigrant has never been victimized?

also you know immigrants who have applied for asylum are legal right?

And what about the thousands of legal Haitians in Springfield OH who were vilified by trumps lies?

and on and on and on

Ok coward, since you didn't want to take the wager let's address this:

Immigrants applying to asylum can only be legal if their asylum is granted which makes up about 10-20% of all asylum requests. Plus, I don't believe people should be able to claim asylum after coming to the country illegally. If somebody wants to claim asylum whilst being legal on a tourist B-2 visa, that's perfectly normal.

You got any evidence those Haitians were legal in Springfield OH? I'm talking green card holders btw.

Trump and the GOP are the party that want to import more Elon Musks into the country.

I have to feel sorry for Kamala Harris this week, she’s had some bad moments through the campaign but she’s been good through the final stretch, and you have Biden with the garbage comment & now Mark Cuban’s comments on the republican women. They need to stop giving fuel to the republican base lol

Good luck to Ukraine and the Middle East if that orange mutant gets back in.

Why Ukraine? I'm genuinely curious about why so many people are concerned with Ukraine.

 

[verreauxi]

Jesusasaurus, who lies constantly, is getting triggered and setting-up cross-purposed challenges, as if being here "legally" and "having a green card" are somehow at odds with each other. One can be in the USA legally without a green card. Haitians have "lawful immigration status" which to dumb it down for Jesusasaurus means "legal."

Fact check: Are Haitian immigrants in Springfield in the US illegally?

JD Vance says immigrants with temporary protections in Springfield, Ohio, are 'illegal'. Experts say he is wrong.

100% mate. Now. Tell us all again about that sex story with the HOT Scandinavian.

Personally, on the trans kids thing. I'm not sure I do agree with any physical surgery before the age of 18.
I don't have a problem with medical intervention for teens as long as parents and doctors approve.
The teen suicide rate for kids who don't get the treatment they need is sky high.

But the way I look at it, Trump would like to just magic the whole trans community away.
He's vilified them and made their lives hell.

Why is the suicide rate with them sky high though? Nobody ever seems to ask the question of why this is, because it isn't because of lack of medical intervention, it didn't have the same rates 10 years ago but surely just as many kids we're trans then? What changed? Unless medical intervention is seen as a magic solution to kids without the real understanding of what the impact of that is. Perhaps it is based on living an alternative life online that they think works in real life? After all kids also self diagnose mental illness as well and live that online. I have an issue with a kid saying something and adults going along with it. Yet on another million and one subjects, you would never trust a kids input because, well they are kids.

Suppose point I'm making is maybe the issue isn't face value yet it's treated as such. There is a lot to it that often gets ignored by people, or witheld by the media, almost like the American medical system would benefit from kids convinced they need medical intervention?

This is exactly the type of naive, inhumane, amoral question I would expect from someone who believes that dinosaurs coexisted with humans.

This is a joke, right?
