Social Gina Carano is an Evil Transphobe

"Just cause you don't understand what's going on
...don't mean it don't make no sense
And just cause you don't like it,
...don't mean it ain't no good"


There's an ST song for all occasions.

I'm sure when Mike wrote that he was thinking of someone chopping off their dick. :eek::D
 
A good buddy of mine transitioned (surgery, the whole 9 yards) just after moving away from Calgary. I had FB back then and an eerily familiar looking ugly chick showed up on my friends list. The next time we talked he filled me in and asked if I'd still go for a beer with him. That's an affirmative.

We never did have that beer cause he +my bad) dropped off the face of the earth, but I would have.

No problem means live and let live. Date or marry? Nope, not in a thousand years. He'll, I'd let loose my inner cave man if that trap was sprung on me. But I wouldn't ostracize them for something I don't understand.

Bodily autonomy/integrity is probably at the top of my value system after all, so who am I to interfere with an adult's self determination?
this is the most intelligent post I've seen you make. cavemanism aside. maybe there's hope lol

I'll take the underhanded compliment as an olive branch. Cubo and I have "known" each other quite a while and I put in more effort on some topics than others, so that might be the cause of this anomaly. Don't get used to it. :D
 
They're bullies.. and people wonder why there are a growing number of people turning against it all.

They harrassed her for months for not putting pronouns in her profile.

DailyDot said she used alt-right talking points anti-trans and... anti-mask sentiments. <45>

This is what they do.. force their craziness on everyone and anyone that doesn't comply are far-right alt right extreme right nazi fascist national socialist white supremacist
 
I've started to see this on email signatures and I just laugh at people when I see it.

Why do you laugh?

As for Carano's case...it is ridiculous that anyone would try to *compel* someone to include pronouns in their signature or profile. It is a choice (and it should always remain a choice) by those who wish to send a positive signal to the trans community. It is not uncommon to see in education settings (e.g. by professors, administrators, counsellors) or where people with large and/or diverse populations.

To the people who continue to throw around broad "leftists" labels when responding...remember that it is a SMALL PORTION of the left that is militant about this stuff.
 
I don't think poorly of him because of his post count. It just seems a little silly for an active poster to advise people to get a hobby because they care about an attempt at getting someone fired over some dumb shit. It's not like sherdoggin' is a super productive use of time.

Nevermind the fact that this story is particularly relevant because the person under attack is a well-known former fighter
Thank you for clearing this up, I can sleep easy now.
 
Bullying somebody into doing something is not a good first step to gaining some sort of understanding. I don’t mind people choosing to put pronouns or not to put pronouns in their bio, but it’s definitely the wrong approach to pressure people into doing something they are not comfortable with. Unless your goal does not include developing any sort of mutual understanding.

It's not their goal.

They don't want "understanding". They want slavish obedience.

If you are cis heterosexual then you are tolerated as long as you are a good ally. And being good ally means genuflecting to them and championing their ideology. Even then, on the wrong day, these crazy people can find some crime you commuted and drill you about it.
 
She took down her beep/bop/boop pronoun. I'm guessing Disney finally stepped in. Shame she caved.
 
She needs to learn not to entertain trolls responding to random people is where you lose
 


This mindset is stunning to me. Hold people accountable for having an opinion? Firing them? Banning them from Twitter? Arresting them? What do you want done? Clearly they want her to lose her job for it.

What happens if we get a legit anti-gay President one day and they hold YOU accountable for your opinions? This is why the principles of freedom of speech and agreeing to disagree is important. These people can't see the forest for the trees or realize the same rhetoric can easily be turned back on them.

She seems to think some opinions are mis-demeanors.
