This is the most quintessentially liberal "one of the Good Ones (TM)" way you could possibly be about this as a trans congresswoman lmaoThey'd ban "female impersonation" on the House floor on party line vote and she'd sheepishly comply
>>38041208what do you want her to do exactly?
>>38041208she hasn't proven herself to be One of the Good Ones™ quite yet and I think her approach so far while maintaining composure and insistence on her belonging is the best anyone could expect
She didn't fall for the trap, good on her. They wanted this to be about trannies and bathrooms but instead she's going to show people that trannies can be capable leaders and statesmen.
>>38041208What's the alternative? Censureship? Lol.>>38041239This.
>>38041221Not surrender ground?Sorry if it comes off as a bit cold, but goddamnit at least put the onus on them to actually enforce it. Make Republicans look like weird little freaks about it.Also the performative congressional mindgames towards her definitely aren't going to stop at this. Thinking of what the Montana state house did with Zooey Zephyr for playing the game but talking foul on them.
No fuck that and fuck you. This right here is what an American ought to be- fighting for the prosperity of the people instead of getting caught up in bullshit culture war nonsense that accomplishes NOTHING, especially when the people right now are DESPERATE for the financial and economic nightmare we're in to be fixed. I'm a schizo who doesn't trust any politicians, but even to me this woman makes a good impression here and I wish her well. This isn't her kowtowing to transphobia and calling herself a man and whatever, this is her getting down to fucking business like her people expect her to. That's respectable and honorable af. Grow the FUCK up.>>38041270Nah, not cold, just incredibly immature and stupid. You realize nothing fucking changes because our own grown ass adult politicians are too busy slapfighting like you want them to instead of getting down to business and actually fucking doing something, right?? And you want MORE slapfighting and gradeschool mudslinging?? Are you fucking kidding me?? People are going homeless and can't afford to fucking survive and you think bathrooms are what we should be fucking focusing on instead of idk helping people be able to keep a goddamned roof over their and their families' heads?? Now is not the fucking time for stupid culture war nonsense. Now is the time for honorable leaders of the people to rise up and protect us. You should feel nothing short of proud that one of our own is serving this position with such dignity and resolve.
>>38041270this is always a tactical decision and i'm not going to second-guess her judgment on her own circumstances. sometimes fighting back against petty shit like this is the right move, sometimes it isn't.>>38041448>Now is not the fucking time for stupid culture war nonsense.i agree, but 100% of the responsibility for this particular culture war battle falls on nancy mace. mcbride has done literally nothing other than win an election while trans.
>>38041565yeah like, I think the part that really irks me here is a mix of:A - really fucked that Mace is trying to make this a whole thingB - Fear that this is gonna get bathroom bills into the "fair collateral" zone for cissoids in the same way that sports and especially prisons are, completely ignoring the horrors you've got to endorse by surrendering there.C- I don't think highly of generic liberal "moderate" tyes and I won't pretend otherwise.100 gorbillion more bucks for war crimes, that's bipartisanship.
imagine getting publicly humiliated by republicans and thinking that taking the high road is an option. these people hope that you do nothing and take it like a little bitch. you think they're gonna commend you for putting your sense of self worth aside for the sake of not causing a scene? they're literally high fiving each other and laughing about how they kept the mentally ill pedophile MEN in dresses out of the women's bathroom. but then again she is a democrat and if there's anything democrats love doing more than slobbing on some wart-ridden GOP scrote it's losing when it matters the most.
>>38041565>sometimes fighting back against petty shit like this is the right move, sometimes it isn'tIt's almost never the right move. This is just a basic life skill that applies to everything btw. Anything a person tries to do in life there will be a million retards trying to place petty roadblocks and goad them into reacting. If you react you lose. Naval Ravikant: status games vs wealth games
>>38041788>if you kill your enemies, they win
why do democrats even put up with republicans when their states are leeches on the US economy that contribute so little in comparison and bring our education metrics down so heavily? if the elites have convinced the right to want class warfare, why dont leftists just give the right what they want? they can remain on their shitty farms and shitty "business" operations, siphoning money from their destitute constituents, and the left can just stop being charitable towards them and ignore/shun/mock/abuse/subjugate them as much as they like while reaping the benefits of a higher education and stronger community with actual moral fiber
>>38041208americans with disabilities act prevents this. if gender dysphoria is a health condition as outlined in the dsm-v and codified in icd, then they have a right to privacy and dignity surrounding their condition. if part of treatment is using the bathroom that alligns with their identity, you going on a discriminatory harassment campaign is illegal. she should continue to use the woman's room and file a lawsuit againsy those that openly disparagr her.
>>38041846where do you think food comes from, anon?
>>38041208Lel, there's a gendered dress code too, is she going to go full butch?
>>38041824this isn't sparta genius. you aren't going to kill anyone, you're just going to come across as unhinged and maybe get shamed in front of millions of people on social media.
>>38041911Other countries? Blue states like California, which contribute over a third of the country's agriculture IN ADDITION to everything else?
>>38041921having a gendered dresscode is sex based discrimination.https://lewisbrisbois.com/newsroom/legal-alerts/the-answer-is-clear-u.s.-supreme-court-outlaws-lgbtq-employment-discrimination
>>38041788>Naval Ravikanti really am not interested in hearing what a soulless silicon valley-adjacent (as far as i can tell he has no meaningful technical knowledge or skills, just likes positioning himself near people who do in order to leech off them) grifter has to say about anything.i will not be giving him any space in my brain. "status games vs wealth games" sounds like somebody at one point used some of these words to mean real things, and then vampire freaks like him got ahold of them and made them into antiknowledge.
>>38041933too retarded to insult. you deserve everything that's coming to you and worse.
>>38041771The Dems are basically controlled opposition by this point. They must know by this point that politics is all about power and no one gives a shit about decorum anymore but they're still pretending it's the 1990s.
>>38041911cali is the biggest agricultural producer in the US and minnesota illinois + a fair amount of midwestern purple states are up there too
>>38041991
>>38041947>stateswell there are two of them so you're not wrong i suppose.
>>38042021SO LET MERCY COOOOOOMEE
>>38042022>California + Illinois + Minnesota = 111.9>Iowa + Nebraska + Texas + Kansas + Indiana + NC + Wisconsin = 181.2Yeah, I think Blue/Purple states will survive without your useless fat white leech boomstick waving retard asses.
>>38041846And dont forget foaming at the mouth at the thought of migrants on welfare
>>38041221Stand up against discrimination.But she's white, so I understand why she wants to uphold white supremacy.
>>38041208Your options are comply, scream about it (comply in a different way), or quietly leave (non compliance).
>as I've remained hard at workpoor choice of words buddy
She gives this classy mature response and the comments on twitter are full of ghouls and bullies still not happy.A significant number of Americans won't be happy until trans people are gone from public life entirely
>>38041270>Not surrender ground?do you all know how chains of events work out- she violates the rules and uses the bathroom- removed by security- thinkpiece after thinkpiece from fox news, every right-winger on social media and in congress and in real life absolutely outraged by it- outrage begets more outrage and anger- accusations that she just wants attention and is a narcissist by the right and even some on the leftend result: even more people hate trans people even more deeply, with no benefit in any possible categorywhat should she do? i don't know. but this wouldn't be the way
>>38041221piss on the senate floor
>>38041891actually the ada specifically says you dont have to do anything for people with any sort of gender identity disorder
>>38042222digits don't lie
It's called giving them the rope to hang themselves retard. Nancy Mace's behavior is an embarrassment to her party, therefore let it continue
>>38041239Thanks for showing your statesMANship, congressMAN McBride! LOL! https://www.tumblr.com/vaspider/687643661640581120/pete-buttigieg-is-just-a-faggot-its-veryGet real.
>>38041208This was objectively, the smartest decision politically to make. It would be a stupid hill and would end up just being counterproductive and make everything worse.
>>38042462If you actually look most of the People seething are actually other trannies funnily enough. You guys will Continue to eat your own until no one is left that cares about you. If you want to be seen as more extreme and fringe Then be my guest.
