President Joe Biden Declares Easter Sunday As Transgender Day Of Visibility

But not all. Every single one that can't get pregnant only lies with one category.

Keep it in perspective.
Only lies in one category?
Ok, then. Let's leave these decisions to those who realize eventually all women who live long enough will inevitably become infertile and will no longer have a period.
Ergo using that as a definition of a woman is to define her first and foremost as a baby factory.

I'm finishing a book called The Chaos Machine which implicates FaceBook and YouTube around the globe in the fomenting of civil and political unrest, conspiracies and misinformation often based in antipathy to marginalized groups. Many times, in many countries, by many experts in social psychology, programming, political analysts, the genesis was social media. A rumor was started, the algorithm pushed it from the fringes to the main pages of users who previously didn't even have an interest in the subject, and next thing you know, the rhetoric has turned to action. Christchurch. Myanmar. India. Chile. Charleston. The algorithm disproportionately pushes users farther right, and a few clicks will take them from cable news to the dark side of conspiracy, and it has a way of keeping users there. I'm going to post a thread review with some excerpts soon, because it's an important sharp look into what most people know vaguely or not at all. So thank you, but I don't want to get my news from YouTube except in a few circumstances, like a live feed by a reputable source on a breaking story that I can't get elsewhere.
I put that book on my wishlist last time you mentioned it. It seems something I may suggest to my group as a reading.

If we assume his logic is consistent - which I think is a stretch - it seems that @Colt thinks that acknowledging the existence of trans people on any date that could align with Easter is a problem. Apparently, trans people need to go into hiding from March 22 to April 24.
And if he thinks that's bad he should take in the highly blasphemous thoughts I had today combining a Jesus that came back to life with Asian horror in such a way that made it possible to make Jesus hoppin down the bunny trail.
I'll just say if we had a blaspheme Jesus day like some tried with Muhammad some years ago they might for once realize what societal hatred towards Christians really looks like. And this nothingburger of mass ignorance would hopefully matter no more.

So narrow of a view...open your eyes. Actually read about other cultures and history for that manner. Classical judaism has 7 genders. Native Americans been hanging with two spirit folk. Ancient Egypt acknowledged folk with a 3rd gender. The idea of gender not being connected to genitals isn't new. Transfolk been around forever.

My own culture the Lakota Sioux even acknowledges a third gender as do my religion's mythologies as a pagan.

Yes but even nations must reproduce in the end to survive.

All you need is love.
This is a quote from the scripture IMOP.

First, I don't care what you believe, as long as you don't try to force it down my or others' throats, as you seem to be doing in this thread. Second, you quote the Bible as if it has authority over unbelievers like myself and others in this thread. Is there a reason why you believe I and other unbelievers in this thread should care what it says? Lastly, since you're quoting the Bible as if it has authority in your life, why are you not loving your neighbor (transgender people) as yourself? And if, by chance, you consider them to be your enemies, then why don't you love them, pray for them, and do good to them? If you sincerely believe in the Bible, shouldn't you love your neighbor, love your enemies, and treat others as you would like to be treated? It's obvious you're not.

Oh no. You're deflecting.

This isn't about the egg roll, this is about March 31 having been Transgender Day of Visibility for 15 years now, and about how President Biden didn't "declare Easter Sunday" so as to assault Christianity.

Can you not just admit that this is a concocted kerfuffle by the perpetually aggrieved?
Too bad both were not celebrated. Only one this year.

What do you expect people to think?

Youtube is far better than facebook by the way. Facebook has your family members telling you what to think, sending you political adverts and videos out of concern. Youtube is private, and you can control your feed. You can also bookmark information. FB is a pit of no return where you can't find anything that you have looked at. Its like (shiver) Pinterest in that respect. Ytube is bookmarkable, and you can even get the transcripts of many things.

Twitch is just a videogame and soft porn place now. Its bizarro. You'll feel like Pinochio in there.

Youtube was how I ever watched any Stewart or Colbert. Its got everybody. I may be unusual in that I am very knowledgeable about algorithms compared to the average person, and I know what life is like without the internet. I know when the algorithm is trying to find out what I think; but I don't think it takes that much intelligence to control one's youtube feed. I think its pretty navigable. If anything the main complaint is that whatever you watch it tries to give you more of.

For example I watch 1 video by Alexander James. Now youtube thinks I hate all women, so its hooking me up with videos about how terrible women are and also feminist videos. Its weird that way; but that is so much better than fb would be. I watch part of one The Young Turks and its going to try to send me a bunch of other things people like who watch lots of that. So in that respect its a bit too much.

Well if the leaders of governments are burning the midnight oil tonight, I strongly suspect that it is not about egg-rolling or the lack of.
What do you expect people to think?
I hope they think some things are much more worrying.

I do love people with mental illness, I have a young Trans friend in a 12-step program that is welcomed, accepted and loved. Its an "outside issue" in 12 step programs. I had him speak at my home group last year. My sister is gay, one of the nicest people I know. She's probably still atheist, but not a Christian hating activist. You assume that I hate because you hate me, you hate Christians in general and I don't care! Fact is the Trans movement is being shoved down everyone's throat! The White House deliberately chose to emphasize this issue on Easter. This would likely not even be an issue if the Left hadn't decided to force everyone in the world to accept peoples lifestyle who cannot accept themselves.
