Those of you who attempt to slur gays -remember
would you rather continue with your attempts at
trying to shame gays then let orphans have a family?

Also, if any of you admired the former US President who
said "Grab 'em by the pussy." Have zero room to claim
to protect anyone in bathrooms.

Dear Voice of Reason,

I assume, but please correct me if I was wrong, that since you quoted my earlier words, your last post was addressed to me, thus I am obliged to respond even while I have no particular interest in this topic.

«It's poltical so long as the policies of society discriminate.»

Sadly you parrot, blindly to give you the benefit of the doubt, this false notion of "society": no such thing exists, how less so could it have policies!
(that vicious term was invented for the sake of coercing people and trying to make them feel guilty as if they owe others something)

Yes, individuals have policies, individuals do discriminate and I too discriminate against angry people - it is unpleasant as well as unsafe to stay around them.

«Pride came out of fighting back when cops killed gays»

You may indeed feel proud if you actually fight such cops - but how many people do you know who actually fought back when the cops attacked and killed?

Shouting slogans in a big crowd, disturbing the peace of others, is hardly anything to be proud of. Further, as noted above, the anger of such shouters drives others to discriminate against them, irrespective of any sexual tendencies they may or may not have.

Anyway, cops never represent "society" - they represent the regimes that hire them.

«Now it represent societal change.»

A very dangerous threat, that is a code-word used by regimes when they are about to make new decrees, new forms of oppression.

«And they have advertising on their jumpers for capitalism. Do you hate capitalism? Welcome, comrade.»

I disapprove of capitalism and socialism just the same - both are coercive.

I am going to ignore the idiot who can't read or see outside his nursing home and has no clue most people do anal today. I am going to ignore most of the other drivel, I get 8 replies a day, and the horde of crying boomers means I use them up quickly

"thus I am obliged to respond even while I have no particular interest in this topic."

HAHAHA!! I have no interest in this topic but I keep reading and replying to it

"Sadly you parrot, blindly to give you the benefit of the doubt, this false notion of "society": no such thing exists, how less so could it have policies!"

I am guessing you are a libertarian, given you hate society. Libertarians are trash.

"but how many people do you know who actually fought back when the cops attacked and killed?"

Irrelevant, pride is a reminder gays have had to fight for the most basic rights

"Shouting slogans in a big crowd, disturbing the peace of others, is hardly anything to be proud of. "

Not sure what this is about? Me opposing right wing race riots. Nazi will never feel safe.

"A very dangerous threat, that is a code-word used by regimes when they are about to make new decrees, new forms of oppression."

Yes, change is scary when you are very old. I get it

"I disapprove of capitalism and socialism just the same - both are coercive."

Only real morons think that. Perhaps read a book and learn what socialism is? Why is it coercive to give people food and shelter, or make sure everyone's needs are met? Because the rich have to pay taxes? LOL!

Dear Voice of Reason,

...or this is how you call yourself here, yet your manner of speech is emotional, not reason-driven.

You speak the language of hate, not of love, you speak in overreaching slogans, divorced from reality and reason, but beneath that bravado I sense your fear, how terrified you are of old age.

These relatives of mine who are homosexual or made changes to their body to better suit their gender-related feelings, have never participated in parades and demonstrations, nobody persecutes them, they are not interested in politics, they just get on with their lives peacefully, lovingly, busy with their families, work, friends and hobbies like the rest of us.

They feel no need to hate anyone, this "rainbow" angry expression does not represent them, they do not consider themselves "gay" and if proud of anything, then it is of their own achievements in life, not their incidental sexual tendencies.

You asked me: "Why is it coercive to give people food and shelter, or make sure everyone's needs are met?"

Well I never claimed that the former is coercive (assuming you don't give people food and shelter they don't want and and never asked you for - that too happens...). Many people of all political persuasions (including those with none) do so, while many others of all political persuasions do not.

As for the latter, rather than coercive, it is plainly impossible!
I wish I could fulfill your need of finding peace and overcoming this debilitating fear of old age, but is there any way I could make sure that happens?

Indeed I have no interest in this topic. I was disturbed of the fact that people are being ordered what to wear, especially when it goes against their conscience and morals, thus I commented. Having made my comment, I feel responsible to defend it, thus I quickly scan these pages from time to time to check whether anyone replied to it, nothing beyond that: rest assured that I have no time or interest to read through the tedious rest.

VOR,

You post a blatant lie then call anyone that calls out your BS a hater. Grow up

"You speak the language of hate, not of love, you speak in overreaching slogans, divorced from reality and reason, but beneath that bravado I sense your fear, how terrified you are of old age."

I hate bigotry, true'

"These relatives of mine who are homosexual or made changes to their body to better suit their gender-related feelings, have never participated in parades and demonstrations, nobody persecutes them"

Irrelevant. They are safer because other people stand up.

"They feel no need to hate anyone, this "rainbow" angry expression does not represent them, they do not consider themselves "gay" and if proud of anything, then it is of their own achievements in life, not their incidental sexual tendencies."

You think that pride is about anger? That's YOUR anger you see.

"You asked me: "Why is it coercive to give people food and shelter, or make sure everyone's needs are met?"

Well I never claimed that the former is coercive"

So you don't hate socialism. thank you.

"As for the latter, rather than coercive, it is plainly impossible!
I wish I could fulfill your need of finding peace and overcoming this debilitating fear of old age, but is there any way I could make sure that happens?"

I am 53. I will grow old without becoming trash, unlike so many of my peers. I am OK with it

HAHAHAAHA! Christ this forum is ridiculous.

To the other idiot - list my lies, friend. You cannot. I never lie.
