Sorry for asking, but can you provide some evidence that the Left had anything at to do with the contest rules. We’ll discuss women beating men in some sports on another day.

Really? https://www.pewresearch.org/short-reads/2024/03/07/state-of-the-union-2024-where-americans-stand-on-the-economy-immigration-and-other-key-issues/

So you swallowed the Trump accusation confession thing. There was no need to, the bit were he was rushed in the middle of the night to the Walter Reid Memorial Hospital to be administered the Montreal Cognitive Assessment Test was a red flag and a clue: https://uk.news.yahoo.com/doctors-trump-displaying-clear-signs-141127653.html

If you are going to present old polls as evidence of current views then I suggest it’s you suffering desperation. When you pad out your arguments with personal attacks you confirm your desperation.

If you had watched the SOTU you would be aware it wasn’t an hour long, it was over an hour and 28 minutes with significant portions of ab libbing to slap down Republican hecklers. So no, you never watched it.

Somebody else who didn’t watch the SOTU.

Is it even true?

Well putting aside the string of personal attacks in your response. Was I right? The article you linked is from May 23 and the election is in November 24. Correct any part of that you feel is wrong.

May 23. The election is November 24.

That’s not new evidence, it’s not even evidence. It’s an unattributed claim.

You obviously missed the SOTU.

QED

So let me get this right. Tim Adam’s, a Jewish journalist provides an account of his experience marching with the peace protestors, pays particular attention to his experience being diametrically opposed to the ‘hate marches’ that thy are being characterized as, and and backs up his own accounts with those from other named Jews taking part in the march. You call this BS and your basis for doing so is a prediction of what might happen in some ‘leftist political group’ or ‘typical campus’. Real accounts v imagined outcomes. I’ll go with Tim Adams

And therein lies the problem.

The problem of Abu Hamza was solved. Forgive me for exposing your inability to identify one of these extremist Muslim communities in Britain that you referred to. Since you yourself now accept my point that extremism at Finsbury Park Mosque has been dealt with, you might want to give another example. Pointing out falsehoods is not being an apologist, and at no time have I ever offered any apology or excuses for terrorism and terrorists. Such an accusation is an extremely serious matter, choose your words wisely.

I’ll hazard a guess, there was nothing in the rules to address transgender players. And now there is.

Abu Hanza is an individual, he was locked up and extradited to the U.S. where his now securely locked up. Problem solved. You need to update yourself on developments at the Finsbury Part Mosque since Abu Hanna was removed. If you evidence of any current extremism or terrorism at Finsbury Park Mosque you really ought contact the police.

Your logic assumes that there was foreknowledge of that particular door plug would blow out. Otherwise the calculation becomes a conditional probability = Probability Seats Empty|Probability That particular Door Plug Blow Out. Depending on how many doors this would reduce the probability by orders of magnitude. So highly unlikely that anyone could game the seating at that particular door. There are also conditional influences on the probability of the seats being empty. These being, extra charge for a door seat and/or disabled passengers and people unable to operate the door not being seated in door seat rows. These would increase the probability of the seats being empty without any other considerations needing to play a part.

Care to point out these ‘Extremist Muslim Communities’?

You really don’t know much about sport organization do you. Add another category and let everyone take part, it might not feed your need to exclude folk but it does open the door for wider participation. As a life long sportsman I’m all in favor of maximizing access to participation in sport.

My two paragraphs. So you were doing your teacher thing. Maybe you are right, keep the politics of division and the politics of culture wars out of sports. Let the sports organizations themselves do the… organizing as they feel fit. Easy answer, add more categories, it’s been done before.

Why is that politics? Sports have always had multiple categories.

Or rather sports organizations simply need to broaden their categories. We can then avoid the pretense of anyone on the political altright parading their newly minted ‘care for women’ credentials.

Certainly large numbers of women will play a part. And I don’t think Liz’ Cheney is quite yet done with Trump.

He’s perhaps doing his part in the ‘If your heart is in Israel’ immigrant recruitment campaign that’s constantly showing up in my social media stream Or perhaps the view from Israel is a little distorted from the reality in London: https://amp.theguardian.com/world/2024/mar/09/im-jewish-and-feel-totally-safe-marching-for-gaza-london-protesters-defy-sunaks-extremist-slur
