actually medical transition for trans people is not the same as recreational or performance enhancing hormone use, and conflating the two will just be used as an excuse to ban both
>>44290585missing the point of the judge like always I see.
the difference is that gender dysphoria is a mental illness which hampers efficiency and battle readiness whereas trt is a bio-enhancement that increases efficiency and battle readiness. i dont even agree really but the argument is straight forward if you’re not obtuse
>>44290585Hormone therapy for cis and trans people are both the same, there's 0 difference in practice. It's gender affirming care either way. Hormones fluctuate, it's normal and the only reason for a cis man to want to pump himself full of test because he's maybe slightly below the average level is almost entirely mental, ie because it makes him FEEL more like a man (as defined by social standards). Which is the same reason a trans man might pursue hormone treatment
>>44290613So hrt which alleviates gender dysphoria would increase efficiency and battle readiness?
>>44290637is sterilization effectively a form of gender affirming care?
>>44290613so why did the attempted ban ban people who were receiving treatment or had previously received treatment while allowing those who refused treatment?
>>44290649well yeah but not to the level required
>>44290613Gender dysphoria is only a problem when untreated though. Post gender affirming care the problems subside to varying degrees. Anyway pumping AFABs full of test seems like a net benefit anyway doesn't it? Makes them stronger and angrier like a cis man
>>44290494no difference for the taxpayers anyway who get to pay for lifelong medication when these people hop on LIFELONG medication because their balls will stop naturally producing testosterone if they start taking it artifically
>>44290652That's something you should talk to your doctor about
There is no ban on transgender people in the military. This is a lie by the left. There is a ban on people with gender dysphoria. Not all trans people have gender dysphoria and nothing prevents trans people from socially transitioning while off hours while not on duty. Once on duty, you have to abide by the same sex based standards as all people in the military, without special accommodations.
>>44290671>hop on LIFELONG medication because their balls will stop naturally producing testosterone if they start taking it artificallytaking testosterone doesn't make you infertile. are you retarded btw?
Both are based. Who is the government to tell me what hormones i'm supposed to have and at what a level? It's a matter of bodily autonomy.
>>44290687Don't you have new pronouns to make up with your Tumblr buds?You need dysphoria to be trans.
>Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth’s new initiative to test and treat troops for low testosteroneIs this for men or men and women? Because women also have natural testosterone and probably need quite a bit to be in the military.
>>44290669i dont know if the statistics really bare any of that out. idk. irdc though
>>44290687Except the ban isn't for gender dysphoria. It's for TREATING or HAVING PREVIOUSLY TREATED gender dysphoria.
>>44290652TRT can cause sterilization
>>44290726>You need dysphoria to be trans.Facts over your feelings, leftist.>In current mainstream medical and psychological practice (e.g. the DSM-5-TR and WPATH Standards of Care): No. A person can identify as transgender without meeting the diagnostic criteria for gender dysphoria. Gender dysphoria is a clinical diagnosis describing significant distress or impairment related to the incongruence between one's gender identity and sex assigned at birth. Not every transgender person experiences that level of distress.?Under some legal or policy definitions: Yes, or effectively yes. For example, some governments or institutions have adopted policies that define transgender status in terms of having a diagnosis of gender dysphoria or having sought medical transition. In those contexts, dysphoria may be treated as a necessary condition.>In some ideological or community perspectives: Opinions differ. Some people argue that experiencing gender dysphoria is essential to being transgender ("transmedicalist" or "truscum" view). Others argue that a person's gender identity alone is sufficient, regardless of dysphoria.So it's not a ban on transgender people. You are a transmedicalist.
>>44290699It does because of aromatization
>>44290739>It's for TREATING or HAVING PREVIOUSLY TREATED gender dysphoria.wronghttps://www.war.gov/Portals/1/Spotlight/2025/Guidance_For_Federal_Policies/Prioritizing_Military_Excellence_and_Readiness_P&R_Guidance.pdf>current diagnosis or history of, or exhibit symptoms consistent with, genderdysphoria are disqualified for military service.>A history of cross-sex hormone therapy or sex reassignment or genital reconstructionsurgery as treatment for gender dysphoria or in pursuit of a sex transition
>>44290754Transmedicalism is the way, the rest is retard postmodernists saying bottoming makes you a woman or the shit you're saying
>>44290775>diagnosisfirst part of treatment is getting diagnosed>history of cross sex hormone therapyhmmmmmmmmmseems like banning trannies even if they self medicate without a diagnosis or symptomsare you that retard from last year that did this schtick for months?
>>44290727The only way this makes actual sense and isn't just a waste of taxpayer money is if everyone gets test full stop. Men and women. Make everyone jacked as shit and pissed as chimps. Women included. Otherwise they're probably wasting far more money on the testosterone screenings alone
ROID TRANNIES STAY WINNING
>>44290803legalize all steroids?
>>44290798>first part of treatment is getting diagnosednot everyone does.>seems like banning trannies even if they self medicate without a diagnosis or symptoms1. You could just not tell someone you are taking HRT.2. You shouldn't tell people until you are out of the military.3. Not every trannie takes HRT or has the surgery.
>>44290687There was literally an executive order followed by an administrative notice from Dumb MacNamara banning trans people from military service. There's an FTM who posts here that got kicked out for being a tranny. The admiral hon that /pol/ has been posting about for a decade also got discharged too for being a tranny. Kicking out trannies was a celebrated achievement by the right. Why even make such an obvious lie? What audience are you even playing for? /pol/-types are cheering this on, lefties know you're full of shit...are you just attempting to pander to the 1% of the 1% of trans people that are somehow ignorant of whats happening in the armed forces? Like what's the game theory on this obviously false statement?
>>44290781>or the shit you're sayingyou are denying the trans experience of people who don't want to medically transition or are non-binary
>>44290831>There was literally an executive order followed by an administrative notice from Dumb MacNamara banning trans people from military service.Look it up, at no point does the "transgender" or "transgenderism" appears in the documents.>There's an FTM who posts here that got kicked out for being a tranny.

I know alot of leftist lied and said it banned transgender people.>Why even make such an obvious lie?I know it's weird you keep making lies like this.>What audience are you even playing for? /pol/-types are cheering this on, lefties know you're full of shit...are you just attempting to pander to the 1% of the 1% of trans people that are somehow ignorant of whats happening in the armed forces? Like what's the game theory on this obviously false statement?Go to the military recruitment office. Or find someone in the military. Tell them you are transgender. They can't do anything about it. Because there is no ban.
also banning trannies in the military would be a violation of the Bostock v. Clayton County precedent. It's a ban on gender dysphoria.
The argument against HRT was that they couldn't ensure supply on the battlefield. But apparently this doesn't apply to men injecting T? So obviously Hegseth is causing problems with this; OR, here's my conspiracy theory: this is a backdoor to allowing trans troops while pretending that they don't want to. Basically repubs saving face.
>>44290826the physical effects of HRT are pretty immediately obvious and if they're going to be hormone testing it'll be obvious then>not every tranny takes HRT or surgerylmao nokys retard
>>44290893>The argument against HRT was that they couldn't ensure supply on the battlefield.There is a shit load of HRT in Iran. Iran is the capital of gender reassignment surgeries.
>>44290893or it's a backdoor to test hormone levels and weed out HRTreppers
>>44290613I won 9 battle Royale matches in a row with tested 50 estrogen and no circuses enhancement.I beat 893 HYPER ALPHA MALES TM on add meds and energy drinks and 7 tranniesMuhammad battlereadiness my shriveled leftnut
>>44290898>the physical effects of HRT are pretty immediately obviousSorry is there some way they can just tell imminently and test you for it?Based on everything I've seen, this is a "Don't Ask, Don't Tell" policy for all this stuff. You can put on your lip stick and whig and women's clothing once off duty, but it's a distraction to military readiness once you are serving.>lmao no>No. Not every transgender person who is MTF (transgender woman) takes HRT or has surgery.>There is a wide range of transition paths:>Hormone replacement therapy (HRT): Many transgender women take estrogen (often with testosterone suppression), but some do not. Reasons can include personal choice, health considerations, cost, access, age, family/work circumstances, or not wanting medical changes.>Surgeries: Many transgender women do not have gender-affirming surgeries. Some pursue procedures such as:Vaginoplasty (genital surgery)Facial feminization surgery (FFS)Breast augmentationOther proceduresBut these are not universal, and some transgender women do not want surgery.>Social transition: Some transgender women transition socially (name, pronouns, clothing, presentation) without medical transition.>No transition or partial transition: Some identify as transgender but make few or no outward changes.I'm talking social transition. No right winger opposes social transition.
>>44290920>I beat 893 HYPER ALPHA MALES TM on add meds and energy drinks and 7 trannies?
>>44290929>no right winger opposes social transitionweird how there's all these bills, laws, and policies banning or restricting itretard
>Secretary Hegseth announced that service members age 30 and older would receive annual testosterone screenings as part of routine health assessments, with younger service members able to opt in. The announcement referred broadly to “service members,” but reporting noted that the impact on female troops was unclear. The Washington Post specifically reported that the effect on women and military fitness rules was unclear.It effects FTMs.
>>44290951>weird how there's all these bills, laws, and policies banning or restricting itThere are laws in place that prohibit someone from dressing up in whatever clothing they want and maintaining whatever gender identifies they want? Can you please show us what law us right wingers imposes that did this?Remember, right wingers want less government interference in people's lives.
>Social transition is an act or process in which a person changes the way they interact with or are viewed by others to align with their gender identity. Social transition is the most common form of gender transition due to its relative accessibility, but it is not a requirement to be trans.>We refer to social transitioning as changing your name and/or pronouns, appearance or expression (such as clothing or hairstyles), the washroom you use, and so on. Many folks also choose to affirm their gender identity through medical means, such as the use of hormones or surgery.
https://www.whitehouse.gov/presidential-actions/2025/01/defending-women-from-gender-ideology-extremism-and-restoring-biological-truth-to-the-federal-government/Trump established gender identity definition into federal regulation. They idea he's transphobic is preposterous.>(g) “Gender identity” reflects a fully internal and subjective sense of self, disconnected from biological reality and sex and existing on an infinite continuum, that does not provide a meaningful basis for identification and cannot be recognized as a replacement for sex.
God you're retarded.
>>44290971Bill: Michigan HB 4938 classified crossdressing as a "prohibited act" subject to punishment by lawLaw: Revocation of IDs, banning schools from acknowledging social transition, more crossdressing lawsPolicy: Literally the military policyYou're holding two contradictory positions because you're a jobless autist who struggled in middle school>right wingers want less government interference one of the most blatant lies imaginable conservatism is built on government enforcement of social normsit's liberalism that largely promotes social freedom
>>44290992legitimately what do you get out of this? there's no way someone could legitimately be this stupid without forgetting how to eat, blink, or breathe
>>44290939Battle Royale is 100 people per match x 9 matches in a row = 900 others lost - 36 counting my team and 7 of those 874 or whatever were trannies if you want to be technical about it. It's very very low probability and should be borderline impossible if MUH TRANS STATUS AND INFERIOR ESTROGEN LEVELS OF A 90 YEAR OLD LADY AND MY FENALE 30 TESTOSTERONE LEVELS THAT AREN'T THE 500 LEVELS MEN HAVE OR WHATEVER. But no.I fucking shit on every fucking cis male. LEVELS are fucking excuses. Gitgud.Its just panic attacks and feelings of immense dread. Push through it pussy bitch. It doesn't effect your ability to put a scope or drone on target or push rooms or shot call.You make shit up because you're a fucking goy golem Israel pedoniggerFuck you terrorist faggot get off my American website
>>44290890>>44290881>It's a ban on gender dysphoria.This would be like banning everyone with a certain concentration of melanin from joining the military but pretending it's not a ban on blacks.Who the fuck do you think you're fooling with this? Do you actually eat the shit you shovel or do you just think everyone else is that dumb?
>>44291006>For Michigan HB 4938 (2025–2026 session): No, it was not signed into law. It was only an introduced bill and did not pass the Legislature.>The bill was introduced on September 11, 2025, referred to the House Judiciary Committee, and remained at that stage.>Regarding the "crossdressing" language: the bill did contain language in its definition of prohibited material referring to a person of one biological sex "imitating, depicting, or representing" themselves as the other biological sex through attire, cosmetology, or prosthetics. However, because HB 4938 never became law, Michigan did not enact a statute banning crossdressing or making such depictions illegal.>one of the most blatant lies imaginable>conservatism is built on government enforcement of social normseven if that's your definition, it still doesn't work as transgenderism was never illegal.>it's liberalism that largely promotes social freedomWrong. modern liberalism promotes the idea that government most regulate all aspects of society.
>>44291039There is a waiver process for people with gender dysphoria. It isn't a categorical ban.
>>44291062>Waiver count approved: 0>we aren't taking young adults and women's rights to vote we are just making the alpha male of the house represent everyone's collective vote. Its different because we said so.Duh! Your body, Daddy's decision sweetheart. <3 Trump is everyone's daddy. Its not fetlife fetish play of adult baby play with Littles. Its called being republican for Israel our greatest ally.
>>44291062The ability of conservatives to 180 on any and all positions is truly magical its like the number one reason the right has any power at all you guys don't have to have any consistent position on anything and can pivot on a dime
>>44291124Republicans don't believe in anything. Its a literal obvious cult of death and suffering worship and pedophilia centered around nondescript Daddy figures that change their minds 24/7 and carpet bomb everything nonstop into chaos and devotion demands of acolytes to bend over and worship and attack any non-believers. They are the world's biggest terrorist group.
>>44291122>Waiver count approved: 0>source: dude trust me.
>>44291124I feel leftist really do want Republicans to ban transgenderism because than they can feel morally superior and say "look we were right and not totally fear mongering!"
>>44291181It's your statement nigger.I don't source your fucking statements. You fucking jewish nignog sissification fetishist.
>However, Reuters reported in May 2025 that none of the military services had received waiver applications from transgender troops seeking to remain in service, because the criteria appeared extremely difficult for transitioning service members to meet.The most evidence you have is none issued May 9, 2025, but the order was only implemented May 8https://www.reuters.com/world/us/pentagon-waiver-looks-like-catch-22-banned-transgender-troops-2025-05-09/

>>44291017He's just sowing discord and misinformation in what he considers the enemy camp.
>>44291206Unlike rightoids my politics don't revolve around wanting to merely look superior. I'd love if they didn't do shit and focused their energy on fixing this country, like they promise to do. Unfortunately they never have fixed this country and just focus on doing stupid shit, like finding loopholes to ban trannies from the military without explicitly on paper saying verbatim "we are banning trannies from the military">>44291270This is another republican lie. For decades dems sole cultural goal in the ME was mass liberalization and deradicalization. Reds shot that to shit and handed the entire region to ISIS and similar groups because the only thing reds know how to do is blow shit up and turn tail when they blow up the wrong shit.

>>44291441it’s only cause fdr saved us
>>44291270Nope. They're terrorists too. 3,000 years is a failed experiment. Glass it all and move Japanese women there or something. Better us than the robots doing it soon. Robots will do it much more cruel and efficient. It's pretty universal that Ai doesn't listen to bulletin because it has access to all kinds of data instead of propaganda. And the only way to stop it is to pollute it to the point it starts larping as mecha hitler and babbling about goblins and white genocides in my cookie recipe.
>>44291378>like finding loopholes to ban trannies from the military without explicitly on paper saying verbatim "we are banning trannies from the military"go into the military. tell them are they transgender. They will look at you and say ok and do nothing about it. all it says is that transgenders must abide by the same sex-standards as everyone else.

Something Iran opposes. They also oppose Israel, the only country that allow trannies in their military btw.
>>44291441No we didn't side with them because Americans aren't fucking evil. You disgusting fucking pedojews are. We stacked you faggots in mounds. We slaughtered you like animals.

Your family will be ostracized and shamed for generations of they aren't put to death for aiding a terrorist pedophile organization.

>Reyes ordered both parties in the lawsuit to address “the similarities and differences in administering TRT, both medically and logistically, for trans men compared to other service members, including cis individuals.” She was using the acronym for testosterone replacement therapy.what a time to be alive.

Gender dysphoria is a medical diagnosis involving significant distress, while transgender simply describes someone whose gender identity differs from the sex they were assigned at birth. Some transgender people experience dysphoria, and some do not. Medical systems recognize that not every trans person seeks treatment or meets diagnostic criteria for dysphoria.A man wearing a dress is just a man wearing a dress unless he identifies as a woman or another gender. Clothing does not determine someone's gender identity. A transgender woman is not defined by wearing dresses; she is transgender because her gender identity differs from the sex she was assigned at birth.
>>44291730>the funny standard here is that for the last few decades the goto insult has been "man in a dress" but a tranny without dysphoria would quite literally be just a man in a dress in that exact sense.There is shit load of cis straight and cis homosexual men who wore dresses. Sometimes for relaxing, sometimes for drag balls, sometimes for comedy (in my high school, for one on show performance for the schools, guys dressed in cheer leader dresses and did cheer dance for us in rounding applause." Some homosexual men dress up in women's clothing to attract other homosexuals. It's not just an "insult".

>>44291969>transmedicalism was the podition reds had been pushing for decades. that nobody should be allowed to transition without seeing a host of docs first. is DIY and self-diagnosis the new repub position?The Republican position is that individuals can choose whether or not to use their private funds to get a diagnosis from a doctor and undergo sexual reassignment surgery.

>>44290613There are trans women who used to be in special forces. The idea that gender dysphoria prevents effective soldiering is preposterous
>>44290775You can get a waiver if you've never been treated for gender dysphoria, which is probably what nona is thinking.
>>44290637>>44290609actually you're missing the pointthe point is that liberals and conservatives both believe in heavy restriction of hrt, and both believe that hrt is fundamentally cosmetic. neither group believes in bodily autonomy and neither group believes that being trans is a real medical condition, they're just quibbling over which people they think should be allowed to take steroids by the government.when democrats are complaining that the republicans let troops take testosterone and then turn around and compare it to hrt for trans people, it's not exactly a positive thing to say, as they obviously are against letting regular people take testosterone.
>>44293387>when democrats are complaining that the republicans let troops take testosteronethey are?
>>44293439yeswestern liberals are incredibly anti-testosterone, hormone regulation is ridiculously strict compared to non-western countries
>>44293002>you still haven't answered my question about usury btw. how do you promote investment in industry if debts cannot accrue interest?which industry? we don't need to fund every industry.>why did we need to fund muslim extremists to fight communism?>why are muslim extremists bad now but fine then?Because we were fighting communism. Now we are fighting Islamic extremists.>i want citations of tucker or peterson or fuentes or literally any major figure saying,One of Tucker's first guest on his Fox show in 2017 was Citlyn Jenner, a trans women Republican.> in no uncertain terms, that DIY hrt and self-diagnosis should be both legally okay and socially acceptable.They don't have to because it already is legal. There is no long on either. It is socially acceptable for them to transition, medically and socially, so long as they are adults and using their private funds for it.
>>44290687Expecting someone to completely transform their presentation seems a bit like special treatment, just in the wrong direction
>>44290846Yeah desu If they aren't going to noticeably change or affect their own life why should people be pressured to treat them like they have? Gnc is fine but trying to hop into somebody else's identity with none of the experience is just meaningless dissolution of personal experience for the shallow pretense of "not like other girls" niggerdryPersonal experience and all that is "valid" or whatever but it's not informative or useful for setting standards
>>44293478>industryindustry!both private and public investment, like hedge funds or govt funding, rely on usury. getting more money back than you spend. how does this occur without usury?you can't have an economy without investment. loans, investing, and so on are essential for creating businesses that don't rely on direct sales or that exceed their founder's starting assets.>Now we are fighting Islamic extremists.That we funded.>One of Tucker's first guest on his Fox show in 2017 was Citlyn JennerWho went through the medical system to treat her gender dysphoria lol you guys really do treat minorities like tokens>It is socially acceptable for them to transitionsneed

Either way trump said she could use the women's bathroom in Trump towers in 2016, before the surgery.>you guys really do treat minorities like tokensDoes it upset you the most prominent transgender in human existence is Republican?
>>44293492>Expecting someone to completely transform their presentation seems a bit like special treatment, just in the wrong direction There is very strict military dress and presentation code. To compare military lifestyle to normal life is insane. If you want to put on your panty hose, wig, nails, lip stick on when you are off duty, nothing is prohibiting that. You can go to whatever gay bar you want and get railed by the guys. But everyone must abide by the same sex based standards for military service. But you want special accommodations that cis people don't have.

>>44293387People who's doctor tells them to take testosterone should take testosterone. No democrat (I'm not even a dem) believes that no one should ever take test lol
>>44294097and what happens if your doctor decides they don't want to prescribe testosterone to anyone other than 70+ year old cis men?this is what transmedicalism actually is by the way
>>44290494Honestly in a practical sense what good is it having a chunk of your soldiers on TRT anyway? Testosterone isn't even an issue unless you're over 50 so giving them out to over 30's is just gonna nuke their natural production and lead to a bunch of dependencies. It's so dumb. Although in a way it's kind of hilarious that any female in the military essentially has access to free T injections now if they want to transition.
>>44294092>then true christianity and free markets are antithetical. that alone makes your worldview incoherentIt's not. The issue is business fail. That's their nature. Businesses however get big government bail outs. Remove that welfare and the free market and solve it.>lol further proof of the tokenizationI was talking the surgery, not disclosing being a Republican. That was known for a while.And it's not tokenization.>Not relevant at allIt is because it goes against your constructed narrative.>Its funny how much of repub rhetoric is just "lolumad?" over amd overThere is a significant and growing faction of LGBT voting Republican in recent years.
>>44294125>Although in a way it's kind of hilarious that any female in the military essentially has access to free T injections now if they want to transition.Not just transition. Female bodybuilders take way more T than average FTM sex change by orders of magnitude.
>>44294117Get a second opinion from another doctor dumbass. You don't need test because you FEEL like you do. Find a doctor who will give you a real screening and if you need test you'll get it
>>44294260what if you live in a rural area with limited access to doctors? What if you live in a conservative society where most doctors choose not to treat trans people out of principle?what if there is institutional capture in medical organizations and they bring back the pre-2010s gatekeeping?This is a compromise at best. If we want the compromise we should be advocating for what would actually be good, which is not needing to flatter a doctor to get hormones, which is a system that works perfectly well in like half the world. There is no need for a system that can hold us hostage to doctor opinions, even if you say the doctors and laws will be nice this time.
>>44294318>What if you live in a conservative society where most doctors choose not to treat trans people out of principle?https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hippocratic_Oath
>>44294326you know that's just a 2500 year old ritual right? It's meaninglessanyway being at risk of being completely denied hormones by doctors based on arbitrary standards and personal opinions was the reality for the vast majority of trans people as recently as a couple decades ago. You are naive if you think we can't go back to that system
>>44294359>anyway being at risk of being completely denied hormones by doctors based on arbitrary standards and personal opinions was the reality for the vast majority of trans people as recently as a couple decades ago.so lobby to get testosterone and hormones legalized over the counter.idk what to tell you. our healthcare system is completely fucked beyond belief. We can't even get healthcare period in the US.
>>44290494As much as everyone ITT talking about the FtM/cis male crossover of TRT is having a valid conversation, there is a larger point that needs to be made here which is this is effectively institutionalizing steroid use in the military for ordinary enlisted. To be clear, special forces already use steroids as a matter of course, but that's a very unique situation where their mission sets allow for them to be on base most of the time, and usually have either a medical corpsman or army doctor embedded with them. So they can do this in a safe and effective way which, because of their career choice, it makes sense for them to do. But this policy is expanding that doctrine out to all the 11Bs working at FOBs, whose primary care physician is an S2 with a glorified first aid certificate and are relying on a very large complicated system of logistics which fucks up the little shit all the fucking time. Testosterone is not the same as estrogen, it's hard to fuck up estrogen, it's so fucking easy to fuck up testosterone if you either don't know what you're doing or aren't supervised by someone who does. You guys are talking about sterility, a cis man who fucks up his TRT can sterilize himself very very easily, not to mention the risks of AIS, increased risks of cancer, there is just so much that can go wrong here. And that's before you get to the very valid concerns of trans men serving as infantry, which is what happens when the T gets cut off? That's a small problem when you're talking about a few dozen trans men out of 2 million service members, but that's next level holy shit when you're talking about every 2nd or 3rd 11B needing his fortnightly T shot or he'll turn into a little bitch. And the time you really need that not to happen is the exact time it's going to happen every time.
>>44294427>effectively institutionalizing steroid use in the military for ordinary enlisted.It should be mandatory in all all of our society honestly.>You guys are talking about sterility, a cis man who fucks up his TRT can sterilize himself very very easily, not to mention the risks of AIS, increased risks of cancer, there is just so much that can go wrong here.You don't know how TRT works btw.

>>44297271>Why are people giving out loans? Because they think it's a good investmentDipshit, what makes it a good investment?That they get back more money than they put in. Profit.How the fuck do you make a profit if you can't make money on a loan or investment? If I give you 1000 dollars and you give me back 1000 dollars then all I did was let you borrow 1000 dollars. Why would I let you borrow my money for free?Wait before you reply to me again I need you to define usury in your own words. I'm not replying to you again until you define usury and can explain to me why I would invest my money in a company if usury was illegal.>You self-id, you can use whatever bathroom you want.Where did donald trump specifically verbatim mention self-id? He mentioned CJ being able to use a bathroom. The concept of self-id was never once brought up. I don't care about your fanfiction or what you think he implied, he didn't say self-id or any synonyms of self-id or anything related to self-id.>idk wtf self-diagnosis is even supposed to mean in this conversationactually neck yourself holy shit you really are out of your depth>the only reason you brought up "umad" was becauseYou literally asked me if I was mad. Yes you people constantly try to ragebait people instead of make actual points
>>44297410> until you define usury and can explain to me why I would invest my money in a company if usury was illegal.Usury is generally defined as charging excessive or exploitative interest on a loan, not simply earning a return on an investment. Investing in a company is different because you are sharing ownership risk and potential profits rather than charging a guaranteed interest payment on borrowed money.>He mentioned CJ being able to use a bathroom.well you keep leaving out which bathroom. he specifically said women’s bathroom. a bog thing with the self id movement is that someone who socially transition can be allowed to is whatever bathroom their gender identity corresponds to. > actually neck yourself holy shit you really are out of your depthyou didn’t answer my question. there is alot of issues people don’t understand with the trans issues> actually neck yourself holy shit you really are out of your depththe point i was getting out originally in this thread was foaming in mouth angry democrats who think trump banned trans people in the military, snd i proved that wrong.
>>44297521>Usury is generally defined as charging excessive or exploitative interest on a loanUsury is any interest on a loan. >Investing in a company is different because you are sharing ownership risk and potential profits rather than charging a guaranteed interest payment on borrowed moneyProtestants are the dumbest fucking people on earthyes sure god outlawed interest on loans UNLESS you say it isn't a loan and you say the interest isn't interest in which case its A-OkBUT!!!!!!!!! these loopholes do not apply to things like gay sex or abortions where we get to be very broad and loose and favorable with our definitions specifically to fuck over our enemies only rather than follow god's immutable perfect wordfucking you're going to burn in hell when you die >bathroomirrelevant stop trying to dodge the topic i dont give a fuck about who can shit where i asked you for quotes about a topic not your fucking fanfiction>there is alot of issues people don’t understand with the trans issuesif i got into a debate about why the nazis were based and epic but i didn't know the definition of holocaust or socialism i would be dropped out of a helicopter over the oceanyou are not qualified to have opinions>snd i proved that wrong.you proved nothing wrong. you still never answered me how someone can be trans and not have dysphoria. the entire reason we're talking about where trump will let CJ shit is because I asked you to prove that repubs are fine with transes who don't have dyspohoria via approval of self-diagnosis which you did not know the definition of.given the way you type i'd bet a million dollars you're a brown ESL who doesn't live in america and is just stirring shit because there's nothing else going on in your favela and/or you think daddy trump is going to "fix" america and let you escape there
