[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So here’s the thing. I reckon most liberals would consider me a conservative. In fact a lot of liberals have told me they think I’m a secret conservative. I’m not, I voted for Biden, but I agree with Robby Soave that wokeness is something you know when you see or whatever. I don’t get trans/non-binary stuff (but I try to be respectful and use correct pronouns), I think it’s weird that there are so many trans kids, I despise inclusive language…you’d think I’m the perfect customer for Bethany’s book.

But no, even though I probably agree with Bethany on a lot, I think she’s a complete shit for brains. It’s true, I can’t define wokeness but I also didn’t spend a year writing a book about it. You’d think someone who wrote an entire chapter defining woke would have come up with a 15 second explanation. Like, Bethany at no point when writing the book did you and Karol think “Hey during the media tour we’ll probably be asked to define this super vague word. We should have a brief and pithy explanation”? No, you didn’t, because you and Karol are both effing stupid. But Karol didn’t shit the bed today on live TV so we’ll leave her out of this.

On top of just generally being stupid, she’s an attention seeker. This woman loves to be talked about badly on line so she can pull song and dance numero uno from the MAGA playbook: Martyrdom. Bethany loves to tweet “play stupid games win stupid prizes,” but then when she does something dumb and people call her on it, she is SHOCKED. She’s an edge lord and grade A troll who loves to fuel the outrage Olympics. Instead of just tweeting something normal in spring of 2020 like “Hey maybe we should evaluate how lockdowns will affect kids and the economy long term” she literally tweeted “call me a grandma killer I’m going to the zoo” and was surprised that people were like “wtf?”

And remember, kids. Bethany claimed to be anti-Trump until she realized being MAGA brought more clicks. So she was vocally pro-Trump all through the 2020 election. And then on January 6 she pretended she had never been pro-Trump. The end. [/quote]

The percentage of trans people is really small. The Dems simply sought to make life a little easier for a stigmatized class of people in our society. The GOP has blown it way out of the water in terms of prominence. And frankly, where is the Libertarian wing of the GOP on this issue? [/quote]
