Candace Owens and Marc Lamont Hill Debate Whether Transgender Pronouns Should Be Honoured
Marc Lamont Hill: If I told you my pronouns were "she, her," you would address me as "she and her," right?
Candace Owens: No, I wouldn't. I would call you Marc.
Marc Lamont Hill: But if I said my name was Jane, would you call me Jane?
Candace Owens: If that was your legal name, yes. But I'm not going to change these established pronouns for male and female.
Marc Lamont Hill: This isn't a case of someone thinking they're something they're not. What people are saying is there is a misalignment between my sex and my gender.
Candace Owens: Disorder. My mind and my body don't match, that's a disorder.
Marc Lamont Hill: That doesn't make it a disorder. It means the world may be more diverse than we've previously understood it to be.
If someone says, "I prefer to be called she and her, and I no longer want to be identified by this name," why not just honour that?
Candace Owens: If you changed your name, I will honour it. But if you're asking me to change pronouns, I'm not going to do that.
These are established pronouns. You're asking me to change the English language. We know why we call female "she," "her," "girl," "woman." These are words that have meanings.
If this mug wants to be called a book it's a mug. You're asking me to change the actual meaning of words to accommodate you. I'm not going to do that.
Marc Lamont Hill: The argument of the trans community is not, "I'm actually a man, but I want you to pretend I'm a woman."
The argument is, "No, I am a woman, and so I want you to affirm me as
Candace Owens: But you're not a woman. That's the problem.
Just because you think something doesn't make it real.
Marc Lamont Hill: But that's exactly what gender is. Gender is about an experience, a performance, and a social construct.
Candace Owens: It's not a social construct. Stop saying social construct.
You say words don't have meaning and they're socially constructed, but then our entire discussion about Black America meant nothing.
There's no such thing as racial injustice because Black is a social construct.
Marc Lamont Hill: Yeah, but we live in a social reality.
Candace Owens: You can't have both, Marc.
Simon wasn’t a cop. He’s a former Sun reporter (on the city desk). Which is why he’s got a grasp of the whole system. His writing partner, Ed Burns, was a former cop (supposedly a lot like McNulty). And they’re VERY critical of the police and don’t hide how messed up the cops are. But the main conclusion you’re supposed to get out of The Wire is that the system has holes all around it and everyone that comes in trying to change and improve ANY element of it gets swallowed up by it. The game is the game.
Many of y'all cheered when Spirit closed down. Without those less expensive options to be competitive those larger airlines have no reason to drop prices
Fucked a lady at a music festival in Panama in 2016 nearly identical to this woman but with a bigger rack. Batshit crazy but we fucked like animals for two hours on mescaline+MDA. When I nutted I was practically screaming. She introduced me to her husband later. Hope she’s well.
he was an alcoholic serial cheater who created a fake serial killer that ended up getting a real person killed and he’s the best representation cops get on that show, definitely copaganda i guess
