Canadian Leader Lying To Manufacture Outrage Over Prayer

Notice the similarity to US politicians?  See how he lied to gin up outrage over the idea of woke left taking away a right of prayer from the people.  It was a lie that he repeated to stir anger and win votes.   Hugs

McBride To House Dems: Ignore Anti-Trans Attacks

 

NOTUS reports:

House Democrats are brushing off Republican attacks on Rep.-elect Sarah McBride after some GOP members made clear they would attempt to keep McBride from using the women’s restrooms in the Capitol. That’s because McBride told them to.

By Tuesday morning, Democrats had a clear message: Republican attacks on trans people were a distraction from other issues. Sources told NOTUS that McBride had made obvious in meetings that she wanted her colleagues to talk about policy — and what Republicans weren’t doing — instead.

The congresswoman-elect, one lawmaker said, reiterated that Republicans’ messaging was a “distraction” and that this isn’t “her first rodeo” dealing with anti-trans rhetoric. Another House Democrat said they’ve personally talked “extensively” with McBride and “she doesn’t want to be seen as a victim.”

Read the full article.

McBride shows us what courage is.

Our incoming president elect remains butthurt over a Vanity Fair article (small hands) from over 30 years ago.

McBride brushes off direct personal attacks and wants us to focus on policy. Our incoming president wants SNL taken off the air because they told jokes.

We just need to elect more trans people to office.

In 2018 Virginia’s Danica Roem was the first out trans person elected to any state legislature, as a Delegate. Last year she was elected as a state Senator, and when that happened she became the second in the US to be elected to a state Senate, after Sarah McBride’s election in 2020. Interesting both mid-Atlantic, soon everywhere hopefully.

Most people have more important things to be concerned about than what is or may have been between another’s legs!

Greene and her ilk are beyond pathetic. As it happens, I’ve worked with and written about more than a usual share of trans people.

Their journeys and, in some cases, what they’ve endured to live their lives authentically and with joy are far greater than this.

McBride can let them spin in the sewer of their ignorance, immaturity, and hatred while McBride focuses on being a grownup. I applaud her response, and I have to say I’m not the least bit surprised.

Democrats always play the mature opponent

Usually very noble, but that won’t help in a fascist government

The problem is that Democrats can’t avoid talking about trans people because Republicans won’t let us. We aren’t bringing it up. I don’t think it’s a big issue. Yes, it affects trans people but no one else is harmed by a small percentage of our population being treated fairly and decently.

Texas is a good example. Ted Cruz made trans girls playing sports a core issue in the campaign. Allred tried to avoid that topic but had to address it. And it didn’t matter. Never mind that Cruz used images of cis-gendered girls from Oregon in his ad because this is just not a problem in Texas. Nope. That’s not scary enough for the knuckle-dragging redneck assholes that show up to vote in Texas.

I agree we shouldn’t bring it up, but it’s naive to think that it’s an issue we can just ignore because Republicans are not going to shut up about it because they think it helped them in this year. Look for several more rounds of this shit. Trans girls in sports is the new gay marriage.

Opinion | ‘Woke’ didn’t lose the US election: the patrician class who hijacked identity politics did
Why is this simple explanation being so widely embraced? Because it does not require a commitment to real, structural change, says Guardian columnist Nesrine Malik

What AOC had to say about the House bathroom ban

Please listen to the audio as the written part doesn’t fully capture what she said and why she said it.   This is also in a post Ali made from friend Janet at her blog which I will link below.  Janet is an amazing woman and I enjoy reading her blog.  But AOC mentioned what this is about is targeting people who do not fit the people on the right view of who looks like a man to them or who looks like a woman to them.   

Also Johnson said this was not a hardship for McBride as she could use all the public bathrooms or I guess they have private bathrooms in their offices?  Well why couldn’t Mace also do the same or use her own bathroom rather than making the spectacle and forcing all trans people to be targeted with suspicion from people.   She was the only one complaining?   Well if he told her that they couldn’t make a big deal of it, Johnson wouldn’t be able to push his Christian cred and Mace wouldn’t be able to carry on for a week on a crusade against someone not harming her in any way.  Hard to fund raise off a threat that doesn’t exist unless they can make it seem like one.    Hugs.

AOC comes out swinging against a Nancy Mace for targeting Sarah McBride."They're doing this so that Nancy Mace can … fundraise off an email. They're not doing this to protect people. They're endangering women, they're endangering girls of all kinds. And everybody should reject it. It's gross."

Reducing A Child Of God To “It”…

Another great video from Rev. Trevors supporting trans rights.  He tells the story of a family in a waiting room talking about someone who transitioned.  The mother says she is doing well and the daughter says “Don’t you mean it”?  The Reverend explains which one in his opinion by the teaching of the bible stepped out of being human.  Spoilers … It was not the trans person.  Hugs.

Comment: “Do We Follow Jesus Or The Bible?”

What I like about this video is he uses the bibles own words against the followers of the bible’s vengeful angry god who worship the bible instead of following the teachings of Jesus.  The bible is a story of a people looking for god, finding god, running away from god, disobeying god, and returning to god.   It is not a thing to worship as even the bible says don’t worship the book.  Instead the Christians follow Jesus and his teachings.  How many Christians today such as Nancy Mace should really call themselves Biblians because they follow a collection of stories about the people instead of the New Testament of the Jesus.   Hugs

When We Can’t Tell The Difference Between Truth And Lies…

This is an incredible video on lies and truth, not because he tells us to call out the lies, but look to the real serious needs below the lies.   I finally after several hours of fighting got the finial very large big program installed on my main computer.   Hugs.  

Hatiest Hate Preacher Vs The Priesthood Of All Believers

Rev. Ed understands his position well.  It is about serving his people so that they won’t need him when he is gone.  It is not about ruling them.  In this video he talks about hate preacher Steven Anderson who glories in his hate for some people and take supreme joy in causing harm to other humans.  I know I have posted a lot of him and to tell the truth I may post a lot more.  I have 20 cued up as I reload the finial programs in the computers.   Finally everything is working as I desire it to.   By tomorrow morning or even tonight I should be back to full steam.  Hugs

Side note, the link to Owen’s channel is at the YouTube site of this video.  I will not link it here.  Years ago, maybe 6 to 8 years ago … maybe more, the atheist community fractured badly.  That was when trans kids became an issue.  Some supported kids understanding their gender as they understand who they are attracted to romantically / sexually at a young age.  Others were adamant that kids had no way to understand their gender until they were nearly adults.  Maybe around 17 or 18.  Owen was one of those that was staunchly anti – trans refusing to listen to anyone on what they had to say from their personal experience.  He also admitted he did not understand it and had reservations about the entire issue.    Granted that was a long time ago and his views could have changed.  His backstory is he was raised in the cult of Jehovah Witnesses.  His history as I remember it he got a girl pregnant and there were big issues between him and her family.    I know several of those I originally refused to watch did come around, it took them time and talking to people.  I just don’t know if he did.  Is he still anti-trans I don’t know?  But on the chance he is, I won’t post his blog link here.   Hugs
