[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, if he were saying the same thing, but talking about, say, conservative parents and reversing the names of the politicians, you wouldn't bat an eye.

Also, super weird that you think a pizza guy shouldn't have political views that differ from a rich person. [/quote]

Here’s the thing:
We don’t talk about or even think about “conservative parents” unless you’re doing batsh#t crazy things like trying to ban books or threatening our teachers or local school board. Like, you’re not a topic of conversation in our lives unless you’re getting up to some crazy-ass stuff. Going back to your point - I would definitely be weirded out if someone I knew said “Conservative parents must be destroyed and eliminated.” However, the more likely scenario is that such words would never be uttered because I surround myself with stable people.

This gets to the rub of the matter: 
[b]why does “Woke” - a fictional concept - live rent-free in conservatives’ heads?[/b] [/quote]

I can't speak for conservatives because I am liberal.  However, some of the craziest woke ideas are actually being implemented in progressive places such as NoVA and MoCo.  Normal people of all political affiliations are fed up and they're starting to push back.[/quote]

What are these woke ideas, exactly?[/quote]The worst is allowing males to play girls' sports in school.  Doing this in K-5 is OK, in middle school is less OK, in high school is completely insane and anti-science.[/quote]

That’s not a woke idea. That’s the result of a SCOTUS decision penned by Justice Gorsuch before Biden was even elected. [/quote]Come on man.  That wasn't a real case.  "The Supreme Court’s brief order, which let stand an appeals court’s temporary injunction, gave no reasons, which is not unusual when the justices rule on emergency applications filed on what critics call the court’s shadow docket."  We'll soon see a real case and the Supreme Court will prohibit males from playing girls' sports because this is what most sane people believe is fair.  And you'll be right back here screeching about it and begging Biden to pack the court.  So yes, allowing males to compete in girls' sports is woke, anti-science, and discriminatory against 50% of the population.  [/quote]

I’m talking about Bostock, which was a real case. The court did not grant cert to Virginia in the Grimm case.

I don’t give a damn about sports, and I never will, but let’s not pretend a bunch of libs voted for Gorsuch to make this happen, mmkay? [/quote]Come on man.  That's not related to what I said, even a little.  Bostock was about being fired for being gay.  No one should be fired for being gay or trans.  I said "the worst is allowing males to play girls' sports in school."  This is woke, insane, illiberal, and discriminatory to girls (the female kind) who play and DO care about sports.

Any law related to sex discrimination will have to fall in line with the Bostock and Grimm decisions, such as Title IX.

You can feel however you want to feel about it, but don’t blame liberal voters. Trump and McConnell are responsible for Gorsuch being on the court. This is the law of the land now. Deal with it. [/quote]

If you’re a lawyer you’re a really bad one. It does not follow from those opinions that boys have to be allowed to join sports teams for girls. Also, even if you were right (which you are not), the liberal justices joined Gorsuch on this opinion, which was obviously decisive. There were conservative justices in descent. So if you want to allocate blame, more goes the liberals[/quote]

Give it a goog[/quote]
