At least the frauds are easy to spot
Some of the most historically transphobic and misogynistic people suddenly pretending to care about the sanctity of women's sports
Total clowns

yeah a bunch of right wing dickheads don’t discredit all the concerns normal people have with this. some people here only seem to be focusing on those right wing media outlets when just most regular parents like myself are objecting to it.There is definitely individuals on the right acting in bad faith using the facade of caring about and protecting women's sports to attack trans people. No doubt about that.
Trans women still shouldn't be able to compete against biologically born female humans. Both things can be true.
Dave Chappelle's joke about white people using transgenderism to co-otp minority struggles.
feels more true everyday.
I really want to meet the person who didn't already agree, and finds these arguments pursuasive.
I think it's easy to see why regular people who are only concerned about the comparatively trivial world of competitive sports aren't given the same amount of attention as right wingers in positions of influence who are actively pushing for legislation that harms trans people far beyond that little sphere
it’s pretty well known, or should be, that Jerry falwell & co basically tried a couple of issues, inclusive of very racists ones and started with racists ones, before settling on abortion in an attempt to motivate and monetize white evangelicals
it should not be surprising to anyone that after knocking down roe v wade, they had turned to find another boogeyman to motivate their base while also attempting to distract from their clearly unpopular actions
these are the same people who throw around “migrant caravans“ the last couple election cycles
i don't see how any of this is relevant to what I said.
Yes your political enemies will use, exaggerate and lie about whatever subject to hurt you. so what?
Does that mean that Lia Thomas's participation in swimming competitions, is an issue of white supremacy?
it’s the same people looking for something new to scare white people into voting a particular way
it’s not hard to find video or other documentation of them workshopping sh
blatant racism and sexism didn’t work, so they then shifted to abortion.. which then shifted the views of a whole political party
what they have done with roe v wade isn’t a winning issue, as some of them have now realized.. so they need a new distraction from that AND a new issue to keep that voting block motivated
as with tucker, ain’t hard to find the racist and/or sexist things that have been said.. hell given how outspoken women from the wnba and USWNT are, I’m sure finding video of him being sexiest towards them is easy
with regard to lia Thomas, I assume world aquatics/FINA, swimming‘s governing body, will deal with that soon after world athletics decision
it's deeply unfortunate that conservatives have become sociopathic on the subject.
but I think it makes more important, that reasonable minds speak up
let's not use whataboutism to ignore the very real issues and concerns.
maybe im reading it wrong but that's what is sounds like.??
I didn't use a whataboutism so I guess we're good
I asked if the specific issue, transgender participation in female competitions is an issue principally about white supremacism.
What I find interesting is that there wasn't much controversy about gender-mixed sport activities (especially at lower levels) before the concept got centered around transgenderism.There is definitely individuals on the right acting in bad faith using the facade of caring about and protecting women's sports to attack trans people. No doubt about that.
Trans women still shouldn't be able to compete against biologically born female humans. Both things can be true.
lia Thomas is white, just like Hillary Clinton and just like Megan rapinoe
i wouldnt say it’s principally about white supremacism.. but there are white supremacist heavily involved in the mechanism that got this to where it is and where it’s going
but who is really out here fighting for lia Thomas and/or others to be able to participate in these competitions?
if world aquatics/fina makes the same ruling as world athletics, who is the world leader fighting against them?

Mixed-gender youth sports increasingly common despite controversy
The players on Carver High School’s girls’ soccer team say senior Kevin Ginnety fits right in — he’s just “one of the girls,” his team captain says — even if he is a boy.m.washingtontimes.com
I specifically remember football (American) being targeted for more inclusion of girls at lower levels since there are no female football programs to speak of.
The fact that the above has never really taken center stage in the political discussion (but transgender athletes have) is indicative that parent concerns may have been amplified in order to be coopted by the usual suspects.
so by this logic, every single political issue is about "white supremacy".
i wouldnt say it’s principally about white supremacism
lol the part you cut out;i wouldnt say it’s principally about white supremacism
but there are white supremacist heavily involved in the mechanism that got this to where it is and where it’s going
lol the part you cut out;
by this logic, every political issue is white supremacy at some level.

i wouldnt say it’s principally about white supremacism.
literally started off naming 3 white people
and? that's not a rebuttal to what I said.
i wouldnt say it’s principally about white supremacism
If you want it to be about white supremacy, that is an argument you are free to make
as I said:
