transigence

Perhaps a small bash script to iterate through all of the package delivery mechanisms’ for updating everything?

I think kinship ties should be and should have always been available to declare or establish at the state level, and calling it a marriage just confuses the issue. I also don’t think it should be restricted to couples, either, but it is.
I think the churches should have their business and the state should have its own business. Modern marriage really only serves to invite the state into the bedroom, so I don’t even think about it as something that should be fought for. I mean, have at it if you want it, but I think you’ll find that it just invites more problems than it solves. I don’t recommend anyone ever get married in 2023.

There are no “actual activists.” There are no causes. The only thing left to fight for is the right to indoctrinate very young school children into gender ideology and show them, graphically, how to be gay.

Go climb a tree. You’re a stereotype.

Yes, you did. Don’t lie.

State interference with and regulation of marriage is, and always was, an abomination. Marriage is a religious and societal institution, and the state only got involved to prevent miscegeny.
The Christian church isn’t going to recognize gay weddings, but anyone else is welcome to.
I’d be happy to advocate with you in the pursuit of getting the state out of marriage.

Do you want a trophy?
Question their identity? What are you even talking about? Why would someone question someone else’s identity (in that sense)?

The concept of “trans” is part of gender ideology. They are people with an identity disorder. Conceptualizing them as “trans” can only exist if you subscribe to the concept of gender in the first place, and gender only exists as an abstraction in the minds of gender ideologues (and people who don’t know any better, who have been duped by gender ideologues).

Correct. Because I don’t rant against gay people and people telling me to stop are effecting a slander against me. It doesn’t help me, and it doesn’t help gay people. All they are doing is stirring shit and profiting from it.

I never said that and I don’t believe that. But the people who fought for civil rights for gay people aren’t today’s alphabet mafia.
Oh, and the gay men who fought in the stonewall riots are the reason the G should have always come first, because it was gay men who set the foundation for civil rights for non-straight people. Not the alphabet mafia, and not lesbians.

When I say “the alphabet mafia,” I’m not talking about gay people, bisexual people, etc. I’m referring to the bully activists who go around stirring shit and spreading lies about society and claim to represent gay and bisexual (etc.) people.

There are a couple of “trans” people in my life. They have one sex but feel as though they are the other sex. I feel sorry for them the discord they feel in their identity, but beyond that I really don’t give a shit. One of them works with me and the other slices my lunchmeat at the deli. I don’t press them about anything, and I don’t talk about it. I actually use their preferred pronouns because I respect them both as individuals, but internally, I believe they are both men who think they feel like women. I’m not even convinced they actually feel like women. I think they’ve been lied to scummy activists all throughout their public education.
Gender is made-up bullshit.

I understand better than gender ideologues the difference between sex and gender, and unlike both the left and the right, I meticulously never use them interchangeably.

Yeah, the system is “I feel this way (today),” or “I feel that way (today).” This ends in “does free will exist,” which I don’t want to end up at.

If I feel like eating pizza today, that desire comes from deterministic conditions. Me choosing to have pizza is still an arbitrary choice. If I had a cheeseburger instead of pizza because it’s cheeseburger day, even if I want pizza, that’s deterministic. You could argue that the schedule is arbitrary, and that’s fair, but deciding for yourself what pronouns you are going to have used in your regard regardless of your sex is arbitrary.

No, they are chosen by “I identify as…” and then they make their choice. That is literally arbitrary. I don’t know how you have been using the word, but you could look it up in a dictionary to see how people have historically used the word.

You have a very loose definition of bigotry.

It’s the alphabet mafia who are treating people being gay as political, not conservatives.

It’s not “about trans and non-binary people,” it’s about the injection of identity politics into video games. The removal of the mod shows that activist fiat is necessary to present the illusion that people buy into gender ideology.
