@emilygdawn How about people who think children can make adult decisions turn over their own car keys, check books, credit cards, etc to those children to make those grown-up decisions for these adults first, prior to these children making for themselves, life altering medical decisions?

@DesertAZQ @emilygdawn I’m not a feminist by any means, but I think certain women can be just as tough as men

@emilygdawn I don’t know why not

If you are requesting folks refer to you as “they/them” or as one of the “neo-pronouns,” you are not being inclusive. Please don’t fool yourself into believing you are. This weird social ritual is not inclusive to folks from certain countries, backgrounds, beliefs, languages, or generations. It is confusing. It puts everyone—even a native English speaker—immediately on edge, because it is unnatural, it is new, and—rather than just requiring their silent tolerance—it REQUIRES THEIR PARTICIPATION. So instead of allowing for a free-flow exchange of ideas, you have now made the social interaction predominately about you, and about not offending you, and “getting it right.” You have effectively made yourself the center of each social interaction and relationship, instead of “de-centering” yourself and putting others more at ease.

It’s easy to say “it’s just a word; it’s just being polite,” etc. but think about that the next time you want to offer your non “he” or “she” “preferred pronouns.” They’re just words. Why do they matter so much to YOU? Since you’re the one asking everyone to change.

Why can’t you be the female or the male you are, acknowledge the appropriate third-person pronouns, and still dress and express yourself however you choose? Why are you reinforcing strict gender stereotypes? Why not be curious about how you can serve others, how you can facilitate intimacy and communication, how you can put others more at ease—instead of policing their language?

It is absurd that even if I call you no name, even if I’m perfectly polite and respectful towards you—if I don’t acquiesce to your nonsensical, confusing pronouns, I’m immediately deemed at best “rude” and at worst “hateful.” That is a #ClownWorld and you are a child. Get over yourself.

I have been a Democrat my entire life. I live in Los Angeles. I was an actress for years. I voted for Obama, then Clinton. I couldn’t wait to vote against the ban on gay marriage. I supported Planned Parenthood. I called JK Rowling “TERF.” I read books like THE NEW JIM CROW in an attempt to “educate” myself. I was a Democrat through-and-through, and more than that—I was even onboard with wokeism, with equity (as opposed to equality), with intersectional feminism, etc. These people had me pretty much hook, line, and sinker.

Then in Summer 2020 I was encouraged to go out and engage in “firey but mostly peaceful protests” but was told it was still unsafe for me to go to work. That didn’t make sense. Nothing around me made any sense whatsoever. And I really needed to go back to work. Whenever I brought this up, I was told I was being selfish or even “racist.” Indeed, whenever I saw talk—whether online or on corporate news—of those who took issue with lockdowns, it was always framed as an issue of selfishness, even of racism. For some reason, liberal folks had this idea that anyone remotely concerned over lockdowns was a wealthy white woman who was just bored and wanted to get her hair and nails done. I felt like screaming at everyone, “who do you think does hair and nails?” Hairdressers and nail artists, whose jobs are ESSENTIAL TO THEM. Everyone is an “essential worker” to himself and the people who may depend upon him.
What bothered me the most wasn’t that these people disagreed with me, or that they had different ideas on how best to handle covid or BLM unrest—what bothered me the most was that they absolutely refused to recognize I might have any honest reasons for disagreeing with them. And I had honest reasons for disagreeing with them. I and MANY others were being harmed by the tyrannical, overreaching, nonsensical response to covid—especially in blue cities and states. That felt like a punch to the gut, from the people I’d supported and aligned with all my life.

So I walked away from the Democrat party. They’ve proven me correct every damn day since then. #walkaway

@RandySevy I like the meme that lists all the things you buy packaged in plastic but refuse to give you a plastic bag to bag it - isn’t there no basic logic left in our world?

It is desire that causes sorrow, but the will to realize God is itself felicity. Be certain that God will cleanse you, comfort you, and take you in. Sorrow comes in order to lead you to happiness. At all times, hold God in remembrance.

@LeftismForU Lady took my window seat on a plane. Said her shoulders were too wide to sit on the aisle. Wasn’t worth a fight. I accidentally set in a man’s seat at the bowling alley because I’d been sitting there earlier. He claimed I thought he was invisible. I hope race wasn’t the issue.
