Sometimes I wonder if a full-on, Chinese-style cultural revolution is a good option.


Works for me.

I sent a letter to the mayor of my town (I live in a rather conservative suburb of Houston), simply to ask which bathroom he would require Caitlyn Jenner to use. The purpose is to determine whether to publicly expose the mayor as a right-wing bigot, and force a recall election.


Caitlyn Jenner would use the women's bathroom. Which do you propose?


There are homophobic bigots who want to force Jenner and other trans women to use the men's room. They insist trans women want to rape women and girls. :roll:


Jenner's gay?

I wasn't aware.


I believe homophobia is a catch-all term for discrimination against all LGBT persons, including transphobia.


Perhaps according to certain Identitarians who wish to push LGBTETC as a monolithic group.


Due to fighting against bigotry directed at them, LGBT people have had to make common cause.


All of them? Did they agree to become clones of each other?

It's a weaselly use of a weasel word.


No more than black Americans did during their civil rights struggles. But like them, gay Americans recognize the need to make common cause.

To be honest, I sort of welcome this Presidency, much as I despise the people involved. If all goes as planned (and no way am I a predictor of the future) the United States will be destroyed. Then maybe people will wake up to the fact of what we did have, after it is too late.

I got a Daemon failure notice that the e-mail didn't go through.

It was probably a lost cause anyway.

WASHINGTON—In an effort to allay concerns over how the abrupt removal of Obamacare would impact millions covered by the legislation, House Republicans pledged Tuesday that they would not dismantle the healthcare law without first putting in place a detailed and comprehensive plan for disposing of patients’ disease-ridden corpses, sources confirmed. “We want the American people to know that we will not, under any circumstances, repeal the Affordable Care Act until we have a full, working Republican alternative for disposing of participants’ withered, virus-infested remains,” said House Majority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-CA), adding that current enrollees can rest assured that the GOP is working tirelessly to draft provisions that will ensure every single Obamacare recipient can have their ashen and tumor-riddled carcass cremated, buried, or dissolved in a quick and efficient manner at minimal cost. “To those presently insured under the ACA, you can expect a smooth transition in the weeks ahead from your current coverage to our much cheaper, easier, and more convenient corpse-elimination plan. Your putrid lifeless body and the putrid lifeless bodies of your loved ones will be well taken care of—that’s our party’s guarantee to you.” McCarthy added that Americans will also be pleased to know that free-market competition will keep down the fees associated with the GOP’s plan, as all current Obamacare beneficiaries will soon have the option of having their moldering corpses disposed of across state lines.

The only way social change could occur in my town would be through armed revolution
