    I no longer engage Bernie-Bots, as they are as allergic to facts and political reality as Trumpies. Rather, I’ll do all I can as a Democratic voter to tank him in 2020. I take it those poll numbers you cited are from that single Harris poll from 2017 that Berners cling to, and you provided no link to, good luck with that.

    I'm not a Bernie Bot or a Bernie Bro (I actually have a few criticisms of Mr. Sanders' policies myself) I also have no clue who I'm going to be supporting in 2020.

    The only interest I have right now is my dislike of the propaganda campaigns the so-called liberal left is waging on other leftists who threaten the status quo, like the way the establishment went after Alexandra Ocasio Cortez.

    If Bernie and AOC's ideas are trash then make arguments against them, convince us that people like Bernie are bad for Black people and the country. Maybe you can "reprogram" a few bots.

    Oh and here is some more recent polling data:

    So, this happened in 2017..

    New California law allows jail time for using wrong gender pronoun.
    Democratic California Gov. Jerry Brown signed legislation on October 4, 2017 that would punish health care workers with fine, and potential jail time, if they decline to use a senior transgender patient's "preferred name or pronouns." The bill was sponsored by California State Sen. Scott Wiener. (AP )

    Among the unlawful actions are “willfully and repeatedly” failing to use a transgender person’s “preferred name or pronouns” after he or she is “clearly informed of the preferred name or pronouns.”

    The law states that if provisions are violated, the violator could be punished by a fine “not to exceed one thousand dollars” or “by imprisonment in the county jail for a period not to exceed one year,” or both.

    For a lot of (transgender) patients, that didn't match, and that was distressing for our patients," Scrafford said..

    Grammar police preparing to issue actual citations.
    Acknowledging this incorrect grammar, Jackson said since California passed a law recognizing the non-binary designation as a gender, “he and she, we are now merging them...we are using the phrase ‘they’ and replacing other designations so it’s a gender neutral designation.”

    If you doubt the insanity of all this, watch this batshit at aGameStop:




    Finally, a report came out today that: 1 in 50 school kids now identify as transgendered.
    Congratulations. Mission accomplished.

    Turn off Faux News. This is absolutely a non-controversy.

    Genuine transgender people are a fraction of a fraction of the U.S. population.

    Also, the NYT published a story two years ago that 1 in 137 teens identify as trans. Don't know where you got that 1 in 50 number.lol
    https://www.nytimes.com/2017/02/23/us/transgender-teenagers-how-many.html

    Why is the Right always in some state of gay panic??

    About 1.5 million U.S. adults identify as trans. That's half of ONE PERCENT of the overall U.S. population.

    I swear, yall love to be scared about something.

    How about you turn off cnnmsnbc.
    Because it's destroying your brain cells.
    You're normalizing abnormal and inauthentic behavior that's being exhibited by young impressionable children. If the tide-pod challenge and child dick-sucking contests isn't indicative to you of peer pressue to conform to what's trendy, l can't help you. Its now up to 1 in 50 but even 1 in 137 is an abnormally high number.

    This push towards transgenderism is physically damaging propaganda and you're seeing the results of it now. The transgender Community is a powerful Lobby even though you yourself said there's a small amount of them. Yet, they're getting all kinds of laws passed by spineless hijacked politicians who tell parents they have no say and now tell us we will GO TO JAIL for mispronouncing their gender.

    So please don't call it 'overreacting' towards threatened jail-time, all because I call somebody sir instead of maam or insted of "non-binary" or "they". These kids don't even know their own gender correctly, yet we'll be criminally punished because we don't know it.
    I don't think so.

    https://www.theglobeandmail.com/opi...urge-in-gender-dysphoria-among-teenage-girls/
    Why the surge in gender dysphoria among teenage girls?
    Clinics working with children with gender dysphoria issues were seeing a sudden surge of adolescent girls who identified as boys.

    In Britain, one well-known gender clinic reports that the majority of its adolescent population, once 50-50, is now overwhelmingly trans-male (female-to-male). What’s going on? Lisa Littman, a doctor and researcher at Brown University, decided to find out. But these are shark-infested waters, as she discovered the hard way. After she published her results, activists released a barrage of protest on social media, and the university quickly distanced itself from her findings.

    Dr. Littman describes the condition experienced by these girls as “rapid-onset gender dysphoria" (ROGD).

    It develops during or soon after puberty and mainly affects girls with no previous signs of childhood gender dysphoria . According to the study, parents say that many girls do have a history of mental illness, and some are on the autism spectrum.


    Dr. Littman’s research..claims that ROGD spreads via social and peer contagion....it’s not uncommon for two or more girls in the same friendship group – or even half of them – to begin to identify as transgender. ROGD also spreads by social media according to Dr. Littman; some parents describe their daughters binge-watching YouTube transition videos.

    “It is plausible that online content may encourage vulnerable individuals to believe that nonspecific symptoms and vague feelings should be interpreted as gender dysphoria stemming from a transgender condition,” Dr Littman writes in her research article.

    1.5 million is that all? And how ignorant is it to let grown men who insist on wearing women's clothing interfere with preserving the planet from imminent destruction?

    Hopefully for your sake the people who help destroy this planet by putting cross dressers before the fight against global warming don't have to come back here to a hardly habitable Earth in their afterlife. That's some karma for your a$$.

    Speaking of all this Kamala Harris hype, it looks like most of the pics from back in the day when she allegedly was involved in an affair with the former Mayor of San Francisco Willie Brown have been scrubbed off the net. Here is 1 of the few pics of them together that still exists:

    End of the day, so what??

    Assuming the statistics are correct and 1 to 3% of teens see themselves as transgender, I mean who cares??
    Tomorrow they may say they feel bisexual. Or pansexual. Or a trangender male/female homosexual. These are KIDS who are mostly confused about life in general.

    This is an extremely small population regardless, and I don't get this sense of alarm about other people's gender identity and sexuality.

    You remind me of people decades ago who tried to enforce sodomy laws and convict adult couples in their own homes for engaging in illegal sex.

    No one is going to jail for using the wrong pronoun. This is the gay panic bullshit I'm talking about. No sane DA or judge is going to put someone in jail for using 'he' instead of 'she'. Very few people are sentenced using the extreme end of sentencing guidelines.

    Gender dysmorphia didn't begin with Bruce Jenner. It may seem like a fad now but it's been around forever, it's just never been broadly documented before by medical professionals.

    That still doesn't justify banning trans people from the military or discriminating against them because they're 'weird'.

    I understand someone being curious about this phenomenon, but elevating it to some kind of crisis is ridiculous.

    Um, Trump is still POTUS.

    Cheating and having affairs is currently a non-issue for most voters.

    Speaking of Kamala Harris, does anybody think that her being in an interracial marriage will hurt, help, or make no difference in her electability? I ask because I remember more than few people saying that Obama never would have gotten elected if he was in an interracial marriage.

    Pretty much, especially when it comes to the voters who should have a problem with adultery. I'm staring dead in your direction, conservative Christians.

    No, he paid money because he didn't know that it wasn't going to be a non-issue. Everyone knows he had an affair with a porn star while his wife was at home pregnant with his child but very few, if any, of his core supporters actually care. The conservative evangelical Christians that put him in office and pretend to care about the sanctity of marriage have completely turned a blind eye to Trump's affairs. In his eyes, Trump can do no wrong.

    In hindsight, he could have saved that $130k because his affair was a non-factor in his election.

    People have all kinds of petty reasons why they vote for a candidate. We all know a lot of black folks didn't give a shit about Obama's policies, they were voting for skin color. Trump embraced petty tribal voting and he rode that wave into office.

    I just wonder if the petty voters will give a damn about her IR marriage?

    Sorry pal. A Cali Dem has about as much chance of winning as the current president of Venezuela.

    Her personal life and nothing else matters. Cali has such a shitty reputation when it comes to law and politics that a democratic brand from there will fail instantly. Before it's even announced, so in a way that's faster than light speed. Kamala has already failed. I'll save you the time.

    Perhaps a rare exception would be something like if the Rock was running.
