Is this when it all started?
The so-called “bathroom” issues while disturbing are not the real issues. As disturbing as they are they keep peoples’ focus away from the real issues.
The real issues are printing money faster than toilet paper and not calling muzzies for what they are and what they represent.
I had to take a Religion class in college as a requirement. The professor was a lapsed Methodist. He kept marking down my papers for using BC and AD, and told me to use BCE and CE. I was a bit older than most of the kids in class, and I didn't toe the line with BS like that, and simply asked him what the CE was in BCE and CE, and stated that it was a distinction without a difference. He backed off.
“In the year of 2016, it’s now permissible to believe you’re the opposite sex.”
A pig can believe that its a swan...but it doesn’t make it so.
I'm also not pretending that a man is a woman, that government is love, that theft is honesty, that surrender is freedom. I don't have to, I'm old and cranky and established and not worth the effort to try to bully. I tremble for anyone young enough to be vulnerable to this miasma of idiocy.
This...sounds familiar:
You’re a failure if you believe you’re owed what belongs to someone else.
It's getting so that it isn't even fun to reread Atlas Shrugged anymore. It was supposed to be fiction. Fiction.
On the whole BC/BCE and AD/CE thing:
Think about what “A.D.” means: “Year of Our Lord”
I’m Jewish, and that doesn’t exactly give me the warm and fuzzies. OTOH, I am also aware that Jews are a very numerically-insignificant minority in this country, and more so throughout the world. We have to adapt to the way things are, like them or not.
FYI, I am quite comfortable in my Jewish skin - using “B.C.” and “A.D.” don’t really bother me, or make me think that I’m more likely to convert or anything like that. As with most of these PC things, it is the Special Snowflakes that are trying to make getting through the day a major pain in the rear for those of us that aren’t so “special.” Those Special Snowflakes who are Jewish (by accident of birth, mind you) are, by and large, rather irreligious and are NOT comfortable in their Jewish skins. They likely feel threatened by mere words and conventions. I have a special contempt for these people.
Any country that can afford this insanity is too wealthy for its own good.
I firmly believe that all this is due to a severe case of affluenza.
That great guy is a she.
Ah but if you are a muslim terrorist then all LIEberal morphers claim you are not a muslim!
“The so-called “bathroom” issues while disturbing are not the real issues.”
It absolutely is THE issue. It’s denial of reality which is the primary cause of all our problems.
What we need is a nice reboot.
God has promised one.
I’ll take it to heart and enjoy myself now.
