Agreed…What if you peacefully take a knee during an anthem?
I've changed my view on this one. If a player wants to take a knee then fine. But if he doesn't then fine as well. Maybe eliminating the anthems altogether might be warranted. I'd prefer to leave all politics and social agendas of the pitch, court and ice myself. But the social justice taliban isn't going to go for that.


Sure…boycott whatever you like. It’s not working. The world is changing and there is fuck all you guys can do about it.
😁
Anheuser-Busch's and Target stock losses tell me different.

It’s part of our plan to trick you into turning trans.

Lesbian, gay and bisexual persons are quietly distancing themselves from trans the trans movement. I don't blame them

Wow…I actually agree with you…😮
LOL

I think we’d be better off without the anthems at this point.

This is never gonna happen. Sports reflects whatever is going on in the rest of society. What you are asking for is the “Olympic Ideal” of nations putting aside their differences through sport. But doing so inevitably favours the needs of those in power.

Short-term…maybe you’re right.

Long-term…aligning with anti-trans conservatives is not going to age well.

Meh…I call bs on this claim. There are certainly Trans Radical Exclusionary Feminists out there but they are a loud minority who don’t hold much sway in the community.

Have you seen the share prices for Target and Anheuser Busch lately??
I posted an article about this earlier but companies who support the lgbtq community are doing so based on long-term demographic trends. There may be some short term costs but there are also long term consequences to resisting these changes.

These books are inappropriate for little kids, because at some point you have to explain to the child why Adam is attracted to Steve
You didnt answer the quetsion. Did you actually read an y of the books and if so please point to a passage wihich is offensive.

Show us where gays are getting special treatment
Legally someone who assaults them can not only be charged with assault, but can also have an extra hate-crime attached to the charge.
Heterosexual people dont get that privilege (unless you're part of a visible minority).

LGBTQ also get preferential treatment by the media.
An assault on a regular person probably wont make the news, but an alleged assault on a gay person does

That would be true of anyone whose crime was motivated by hatred toward a group. Jews, Muslims etc. Do you know of many attacks which are motivated by someone being hetero?

No but I am not the one complaining about them you are. Wouldn't it be reasonable before one trys to get a book banned to actually read it?
I explained that in my previous post, at some point you have to explain to the child why Adam is attracted to Steve
