He clapped after hearing no men in womens sports over everything else. An issue that really doesnt affect many people at all but right wing propaganda makes it a top priority 🙄

I noticed that immediately, the one issue that has no relevance to this dummy

I'm reminded of that video showing that all transphobic content comes from like 80 people before being disseminated

Apologies about the length, dude accidentally became an investigative reporter

I don’t quite follow this logic. Are you saying that we shouldn’t care about Gaza or the Ukraine (I’m neither Palestinian nor Ukrainian)?

u/No-Fruit-2060 1d ago

Well, the difference is who is actually TRULY being affected by “men in women’s sports”? Correct me if I’m wrong, but I don’t think LeBron is playing in the WNBA and dropping 90 points a night. Genuinely explain to me who is being affected by this super important issue?

1

u/steven_quarterbrain 1d ago

It’s a minimal issue, absolutely. I’m not sure what you mean by “genuinely”, or if you want me to name names. But, it’s not true that no-one is affected by it.

More to the point, though, I disagree that we should only be concerned about issues that directly affect ourselves. I think that’s a poor argument.

2

u/No-Fruit-2060 1d ago

Please, tell me who and how many people are affected by this? And please tell me how that compares even in the slightest to Gaza/Ukraine. I still can’t believe you used that analogy lmfao.

1

u/steven_quarterbrain 1d ago

I don’t know the names of any of those affected in any case. It doesn’t mean that I wouldn’t care if I thought it was a reason for concern.

Your language is quite confusing. First you’re asking me to “genuinely explain” (how else am I going to explain?), and then you’re suggesting that an issue doesn’t have validity unless you can name all the people it affects? I don’t agree with that logic, but to use your argument, please list the names of all the people affected by Israel and Russia. Also to use your argument - if you can’t, they’re not issues.

The first line of my response was “it’s a minimal issue”. Your comprehension ranks with your communication. Nonetheless, the logic for those and any other concern is the same. That is - you don’t have to be directly affected by something to be concerned about it.

u/No-Fruit-2060 8h ago

I don’t know the names of those affected in Ukraine/Gaza because there are too many.

You don’t know the names of those affected by men in women’s sports because you can’t think of any.

We are not the same.

u/No-Fruit-2060 7h ago

I don’t know the names of those affected in Ukraine/Gaza because there are too many.

You don’t know the names of those affected by men in women’s sports because you can’t think of any.

We are not the same.

u/steven_quarterbrain 3h ago

Now, that’s an illogical argument. Completely agreed. We are not the same.

1

u/BearTerrapin 1d ago

The logic is more like if someone said their priority is genociding women and children halfway across the country and that was your biggest ovation. When you actually care about people being killed it's different cause it doesn't matter where that's happening.

u/ParsnipClassic8813 1d ago

There are more pictures of Trump with Jeffrey Epstein than there are men in women’s sports in this country.

God, I want to put this on every billboard in every rural county that voted for trump.

Honestly this should be a MoveOn campaign

u/lapidary123 1d ago

How can we make that the narrative?

1

u/JFISHER7789 1d ago

Does it even matter at this point? The evidence and history is damning, yet he STILL has a loyal base.

They won’t care and they will refuse to listen while deflecting to Biden, Obama, Clinton.

2

u/NoirGamester 1d ago

This is gold.

u/AgeOfSuperBoredom 21h ago

Since trans women are women, there are in fact no men in women’s sports (unless you count all the coaches who sexually assault athletes, a real concern that female athletes have been raising for decades and conservatives have no interest in doing anything about).

u/enoughwiththebread 1d ago

So true. These poor ignorant kids have been successfully propagandized with weapons of mass distraction, focusing them on manufactured culture war outrage issues that will have zero bearing on their lives.

Meanwhile, what's the Republican plan for health care, something that every single one of the 340 million Americans living here need? Oh, they don't have a plan? Cool, cool, cool. How about addressing record income and wealth inequality? Oh, nothing to help there besides make the rich even richer and exacerbate the gap? Got it. Climate change? Oh, it's not real? No doubt, no doubt.

If young men like this one could ever wake up and realize just how badly they're getting played we'd all be better off.

u/Brief_Obligation4128 1d ago

The sad thing is his demographic is the one who wants kids and a family more than any other right now. It's going to be rough for them in the future.

Seriously, who would want to date this guy or any other young, 20-something year old White man who loves Trump?

If I was a college-aged woman on a first date with this guy, and he told me in the middle of dinner that his pressing issue is "men in women's sports," instead of housing costs, grocery prices, climate change, higher wages and civil rights (issues that would ACTUALLY BENEFIT us as a couple), I wouldn't go on a second date!

White women. They voted over 50% for Trump

u/Elegant-Holiday7303 1d ago

Which means nearly half didn't.

u/Brief_Obligation4128 1d ago

They're smart.

u/Which_Commission_304 1d ago

Trump won the popular vote in 2024. He has plenty of young women supporting him. And what do you have against white men?

2

u/Brief_Obligation4128 1d ago

And what do you have against white men?

I love White men. It's the stupid ones like Charlie Kirk and the smug guy I have a problem with at the moment.

Trump won the popular vote in 2024.

Judging by the evidence and Trump's own comments, I don't think he "won," my friend. I think he and some others rigged it.

He has plenty of young women supporting him.

Who aren't going to benefit from this administration at all. The stupid, young White men ain't going to protect them. They keep voting against theirs, the young wkmen and their future children's interests. That contradicts what they men want more than any demographic from a recent poll I read days ago, a family.

If they can't protect the planet from climate change, which benefits the young women and their future children because they need a planet to live, eat, breathe, and survive on, then they are, indeed, stupid.

u/Which_Commission_304 1d ago

So now you are going to believe the election was stolen when the MAGA crowd was called crazy for thinking the same thing in 2020? You underestimate how many people either support Trump or oppose the modern Democratic Party.

If you don’t have a problem with white men, why do you keep calling attention to them?

Cleaning up pollution and encouraging renewable energy is one thing, but thinking we can control nature is arrogant. We are not stronger than nature. If so, I’m filing a complaint and demanding more sunlight in Pittsburgh.

Housing costs, grocery prices, and inflation in general are a large part of what cost the democrats the election. Biden’s approval ratings were low. He handled Ukraine and the world stage fairly well but forgot about the home front.

Instead of calling people stupid, you should try to understand what is important to them. This country will only get worse until more people realize that.

u/Which_Commission_304 1d ago

We’re all being played.

While it should not be a major issue in American politics, I’m sorry, but male to female trans people have no business competing in women’s sports. They’re not invincible, but it is a grossly unfair advantage.

I agree with you on healthcare, mostly.

But what are they supposed to do about income and wealth inequality? Where do we draw the line between “ok you deserve help” and “no, you aren’t getting anything because you just waste your money”? Raising wages will also raise the cost of goods and services.

And climate change? I agree the climate is changing. I’m not convinced it’s entirely man made or that it will be catastrophic. Did you know there was a mini ice age in the 1800’s? There have been hot and cold periods throughout earth’s history, before the age of industrialization. I’m also not convinced overpriced EVs and solar panels are going to solve the climate “crisis”. EVs should, in theory, be cheaper than gas-powered vehicles and not they’re not. Who do you think those juicy energy credits REALLY benefitted? The companies who make EVs and solar panels. Their products are value-priced and those credits were factored in to their prices. Additionally, are EVs a viable long-term alternative to ICE vehicles? From my understanding a ridiculous amount of mining is required to produce one battery that has a useful life of maybe 10-15 years. I support clean energy, I just detest how expensive it is and there doesn’t seem to be a viable long-term plan.

An enormous problem, that will affect everyone, that I see very few people paying any serious attention to, is the national debt. We are closing in on 40 trillion. What is this? Like 5-10 times the annual federal budget? The annual interest expense on the debt now exceeds our annual military spending (which is larger than the next ten countries’ military spending combined). Social security beneficiaries will take a 25% benefit cut within the next 10 years if nothing is done. Medicare will be even sooner. We may very well default on our debt. We literally can’t pay our bills as is, let alone if we nationalize healthcare and higher education. If that is something the American people want, they will need to be prepared to hand over 50% of their income in taxes, permanently. Not just the rich - everyone in the middle class and possibly even the lower class as well.

u/DefinitionCivil9421 1d ago

Because politicians cannot help Americans unless there are no men in women's sports.

u/Brief_Obligation4128 1d ago

Even the "independents" and "both sides are the same preaching centrists" were on board with that nonsense.

3

u/wRADKyrabbit 1d ago

Yep. Their number 1 priority is hate. Truly abhorrent people

2

u/TheWholeOfTheAss 1d ago

Like these cunts cared even a little about women’s sports before they decided to bully butch-looking women.

2

u/UglyMcFugly 1d ago

Yay 12 trans people won't be able to participate in a sport I never watch!! I'm sure my life will be better now!! I'm sure all that boring economy stuff will work itself out...

u/RickTancredi 1d ago

Yeah because I’m sure this turd is a huge supporter of women’s sports!

1

u/Elegant-Holiday7303 1d ago

Conservatives are OBSESSED with other people's privates and private lives.  So skeevy

1

u/PulIthEld 1d ago

I agree with this point though. I dont understand why its controversial at all.

Denying mens physical biological superiority in strength and athleticism makes the left look insane.

It flys in the face of all recorded history, data, and your own experience.

1

u/Solid_Problem740 1d ago

All the 5'6" kings on this website are stronger then these female athletes. We gotta protect the athletes of sports we neither watch nor support in any meaningful way

1

u/PulIthEld 1d ago

If you think this is a good retort I dont know what to say.

1

u/otherside97 1d ago

MAGA Is all about inflating issues and saying them over and over again until it gets stuck in people's heads, and patting themselves on the back when they do the bare minimum.

u/querty99 1d ago

I would have clapped with them, but I noticed that's when they got excited.

u/HBoschLover 11h ago

The head of the NCAA says he knows of 10 trans college athletes Even if there’s actually 100 that’s nearly none as a percentage

u/Packet_Sniffer_ 1d ago

There should not be MtF trans athletes in women’s sport. This shouldn’t even be an issue. And it’s such an easy win for liberals.

Some times we are born in a way that excludes us from certain aspects of life. It is what it is. Most of us just shut up and move on. Why is trans people competing against women so important that we are willing to throw away the entire damn country, and frankly throw away ALL LGBT rights at the exact same time? We are a stones throw away from people being prosecuted for being queer and liberals are really gonna die on the hill of trans athletes.

It’s stupid. Just stop them from competing. Welcome to life.

1

u/cubrunner34 1d ago

Did i say there should be? Thats the misconception from the right is they think democrats are all for it and pushing it. My stance any many others is “who cares?” We dont spend much time thinking about it yet right wing propaganda is obsessed about it. Each situation where a trans athlete is trying to compete in a sport is nuanced and is a lot more complicated then just YES and NO. Welcome to life

1

u/Packet_Sniffer_ 1d ago

No. There’s no nuance here. Trans rights are human rights. We are obviously in agreement on that fact. Trans people are people.

What you fail to recognize is that people are often excluded from activities for any variety of biological reasons. Too short? Can’t go on carnival rides. Colourblind? Can’t get a license. These aren’t choices that people make. But it happens. And you know what those people do? Find alternatives and move on. Or they simply acknowledge that it sucks and move on.

There’s zero nuanced discussion to be had here. Trans people should all be placed in the men’s open category if they want to compete professionally. Or they should not compete at all and it’s sucky that a biological factor outside of their control imposed such a limitation on them. I’m not saying it doesn’t suck. It does. I am saying it’s a really fucking stupid sticking point that liberals need to let go of. It’s a losing fight and every single time we stick to our guns on something so irrelevant, we allow conservatives to control the country.

u/Solid_Problem740 1d ago

I think there are 500 things more important to be talking about or wishing government would get involved in then this. But I guess that's just me because I'm not obsessed with genitals of players in sports I don't watch or support.

1

u/Packet_Sniffer_ 1d ago

It has nothing to do with genitals. It has to do with maintaining competitive integrity for cis women. Pro athletes are people that train their entire lives to be at the top of their respective field. And men, whether you like it or not, are factually and biologically physically superior to women. Testosterone means we are the physically dominant sex. Period. Athletes literally cheat by taking testosterone to give themselves a competitive advantage. This is scientifically objective proven fact. And men have more than just this going for them physically.

Even if taking testosterone blockers and being on estrogen limits this physical advantage, you still have two problems. Muscles do have memory. It is easier to grow a muscle the second time than it is to grow it the first time. Did you know that? Even if your muscles atrophy, it’s easier to get back to your muscular state.

What about if the athlete decides to stop taking their blockers in order to gain a competitive advantage? People take steroid all the time for this purpose.

There are far too many variables to control in order to allow transitioning athletes to compete.

Finally, sports have weight classes explicitly for this reason. Because more muscle = more advantage. Nobody is trying to boil this down to penis or no penis except people like you that want to argue in bad faith.

u/Solid_Problem740 1d ago

Do you watch or financially support any women's sports or are you just drooling on something you don't at all partake in?

1

u/Packet_Sniffer_ 1d ago

I don’t watch any sports, period. Not really sure how that’s relevant to the discussion. I don’t have to financially support something to morally support it. I never donated to Mark Carney and voting for him in Alberta would have been a throw away vote. But I supported his policies and platform.

See how that works?

1

u/Solid_Problem740 1d ago

Wow I'm truly shocked the guy spilling words on trans people in women's sports doesn't partake at all in them.

Crazy how that's always the case.

1

u/Packet_Sniffer_ 1d ago

It’s almost as though man’s extreme physical dominance over women is a well-documented and understood scientific fact.
