Biology is bigoted! 🤪
Among some of the comments of this article share on Facebook:
“Imagine reducing someone to their sex organs! We do not see heart, soul or feelings!”
“When we see people as human beings rather than through the narrow prisms of color and gender…”
People operate off of the idea that gender is just a “feeling.” I maintain that a trans woman is a type of man. And that’s OK!!!
Hi everyone, I haven't been active in Solid Ground for a while, but I am still alive and kicking! I now work as personal assistant to a mind-bendingly weird and diva-esque artist-lip-syncher-performer named Fiona Blueberry.

I wasn't keen, either, on keeping the AP out for not using Gulf of America.
There are multiple threads from some things Chris posted recently, but this caught my eye
From Jonah Goldberg:
I get it. Thanks for the response. Just a few points:
1) I watched as many on the right went from demonizing Saul Alinsky to respecting, to outright envying and wanting to emulate him. Many of those people stopped being conservative or classically liberal in the process. Steve Bannon, Dinesh, etc.
2) Your argument feels very similar and I think poses similar risks. Adopting illiberal means to achieve liberal or even just "good" ends is not a remotely new idea. It is in fact one of the oldest ideas in politics. And it doesn't have a very good track record.
3) One reason for that is that illiberal means tend to become illiberal ends in the hearts of the people employing them.
4) This is a real danger from where I sit because an American conservatism that doesn't seek to conserve "classical liberalism" isn't meaningfully conservative anymore. American conservatism is about more than classical ...
