300 years ago, you're exactly the sort of person who would have argued in favor of loyalty and obedience to the monarchy in a feudal system. Firing employees for expressing an opinion on the company's direction is bad leadership.

Everything you just said makes it abundantly clear that you are not one of the "good men." Your contempt and pathetic whining could not be more transparent.

Wow you're seriously comparing public concern with police conduct to the Salem witch trials where innocent women were burned alive? What is wrong with you? Why is your sense of reality this warped? Where is your concern for the people who are being killed and brutalized by the police? Corrupt cops have more in common with the patriarchs who tied women to the stake than they do with the witch trial victims.

You'd rather force people to play along with the "gender dress-up" that you dictate? Because I'm guessing you wouldn't be very comfortable with a muscular, hairy cisgender man who decided he wanted to wear dresses because they're more comfortable. No, you'd mock and deride him for not confirming to the socially prescribed gender roles and clothing that are promoted by the dominant culture. Your level of thought about gender and gender performance is not much more developed than that of a 5 year old on a playground who tries to enforce social rules he had just learned by teasing and bullying those who don't confirm. You're like an adult child.

Nobody pushes this on kids. Trust me, even the most progressive of parents are not sitting around wishing that their kids turn out to be Transgender, considering all the hate and the bigotry and the suicide risk. Everything is far easier in life if you're cis.

It is the easiest gender neutral way to refer to someone when compared to all the other proposed alternatives like "xe," "ze," and so on. People tried those once upon a time and people complained just as much as they complain about they/them now. So now we're trying this out and it seems to work for most folks who care to try even just a little bit. The problem is not grammar, the problem is that you're so invested in your idea of a gender binary and pre-defined social gender roles that the existence of people who don't want to be gendered feels like an existential threat to your entire reality.

"I'm not going to blame 'they'" -- it's them in this sentence. I'm not going to blame "them." If you're going to complain about grammar at least get your own grammar right when you're attempting to mock others.

Are you such a technological Luddite that you can't figure out a way to meet and talk with your colleagues unless you're physically in an office? They've got this thing called video chat, you know.

Generational wealth on this kind of scale is plainly immoral

If you think the vast majority of "illegal immigrants" literally scaled walls and dodged border security past "do not enter" signs to get here, you're a moron. The vast majority of immigration issues are much more banal, like situations where people enter the country on temporary visas which subsequently expire despite their best efforts to obtain extensions, making them "legal immigrants" one day and "illegal" the next.

Food was listed right in the fine summary.

Drug and vaccine review processes are only ever tested on otherwise healthy people who aren't taking other medications or have other pre-existing health conditions. They don't really know if the latest drug or vaccine is going to cause negative side effects in certain subgroups of people until they actually roll it out.

So why do you think that banning any other drug would have a different outcome? Black market drugs fuel gangs and organized crime, period. The war on drugs was the biggest failed social experiment of the 20th century.

That research was with Macaques, so the fact that you just said it was with Chimpanzees tells me you didn't even so much as read the first word of it or examine it at all to determine whether or not it was valid or if it was just bullshit pop science to validate a pre-determined outcome that aligns with your own confirmation bias. You really think that a monkey picking up a toy truck has anything whatsoever to do with human psychology and behavior? Give me a fucking break.

Wow. It's like you know nothing about psychology, culture, or human behavior whatsoever. You believe differences in children can solely be attributed to biological causes and could have nothing to do with how we raise them. Were you born this stupid or did you have to practice at it?
