Hurry it up. We want there still to be a Ukraine to join. If genocidal war criminal Putin has his way the Ukrainianian nation will be obliterated.

I'm a behind the camera sort of operative.

I should be so lucky

Happened long ago. Just a joke. Give it a rest.

Good question. Normally the VP pick has minimal effect on the results. But this time VPs will be more important because of the old age factor assuming it will be Biden v Trump again.

Again. He was clearly joking around. Geez!

They actually do good unlike tax cuts for billionaires by the previous criminally corrupt insurrectionist grifter. Recently blocked IRS funding that would get large returns by auditing more rich people. Republicans magically discover deficits only when they're out of power. Epic hypocrisy.

It was in the context of a previous Biden Trump presidential contest. Biden was correct to suggest most blacks were better off voting for him. That was the obvious subtext of the joke.

He actually has but you're obviously just biased. https://www.politifact.com/article/2022/oct/19/experts-say-bidens-achievements-are-similar-to-rec/ • President Joe Biden’s achievements in his first two years are roughly on par with other recent presidents, though they are less extensive than those of Franklin D. Roosevelt and Lyndon B. Johnson, experts say. Biden has signed several major bills and used executive orders to achieve key policy goals. • The big difference for Biden is that he’s had to work with notably smaller margins in Congress than almost any other president in the past century. • Despite Biden’s accomplishments, Democrats haven’t been touting them very much on the midterm campaign trail.

Biden will perform fine until he doesn't. Then we get an unpopular but still perfectly fit, sane, pro democracy, and competent VP Harris. Trump on the other hand is likely to pick a VP as anti democracy and batty as he is. So they aren't equivalently bad.

Christie is the only one really opposing trump. All those other fakers should get out of the way and give Christie an actual shot. Otherwise they're only serving the nomination to Trump on a golden platter.

Another pov about gender affirming medical care.

False accusation. I was responding to a post which introduced the disgraced former president.

He was obviously joking around. But go ahead being terminally literal. The larger point is that trump leads a white nationalist movement.

Fox isn't news. It's incitement.

There won't be. That would take an amendment to the constitution which won't happen.

I have no idea what you're suggesting but I reject the absurd concept that you know what Harvey Milk would think.

False equivalences. I don't believe many pretty girls are committing suicide because of being bullied for being pretty. On the other hand this is really a thing: https://edition.cnn.com/2020/05/26/health/lgbtq-bullying-suicides/index.html Many LGTBQ youth who die by suicide are bullied before their death, study finds A new study looking at hundreds of LGBTQ youth who died by suicide finds that many were bullied before their death, adding to a growing body of evidence showing how bullying can result in deadly consequences. The study found that death records of LGBTQ youth who died by suicide were about five times more likely to mention bullying compared to records of non-LGBTQ youth. Younger children appeared to be at greatest risk. Two-thirds of LGBTQ children age 10 to 13 who died by suicide, for example, were bullied before their death. -- I think gay martyr Harvey Milk speaks to this:

Interesting. I stand corrected. It would never occur to me to call the restaurant when using a delivery service. As far as I'm concerned I'm doing business with the delivery service. I order through them and pay through them. I only complain when there is a real problem that I can document so.I get satisfaction when I do. From the delivery companies.

No groups are monoliths! None! Why is that so difficult for people to understand? There are always debates and disagreements wherever there are people of any kind involved. As I was around during the early stages of the post Stonewall Gay Liberation movement I remember years of controversy about exactly how to include lesbians in the movement. Many lesbians wanted to be totally separate and no doubt many still do. So this coalition grew organically over many years and controversy never goes away and never will. LGBTQ don't have a democratic government on whether to include this group or that group. I suppose there is a sort of consensus that a coalition of sexual orientation and or gender identity related minority groups is better just because of greater numbers so politicians might pay more attention because more votes are at stake. My personal opinion is that it would be very crappy to drop this or that specific group just because they are being more scapegoated than the other groups in some countries. Transgender people and drag queens even more so considering the origin story of the Stonewall Riots. They won't be dropped unless they overwhelmingly choose to be dropped which they won't. There is one exception that I'm aware of. In the early years of the movement a pro pedo group was allowed to participate in parades. There really weren't any filters. Any group could march. Obviously they should never have been allowed. They were kicked out and I'm sure that there was overwhelming support for that!

TNT gets it! Start at 13:40. He correctly disses reactionary critics of the Pride parades as the Pride parades are a key vehicle to promote the civil rights that Thai LBGTQ people are lacking.

This makes no sense. When there are errors in orders you complain to the delivery company. The delivery company calls the restaurant for their side of the story and then if a decision is made to refund it comes from the delivery company.

That's about TIBETAN Buddhism which is Mahāyāna Buddhism. Thai Buddhism is Theravada. Are Catholics the same as Mormons or Unitarians? In any case if it is true that this is about karmic consequences in Thai Buddhism, that's not the same kind of "anti-gay" dogma that we see in the west. Thailand really is a very different place for westerners. Getting deeper than the superficial in Thailand is arguably a rare thing for westerners.

About f-rangs perceiving western style homophobia in Buddhist Thailand, I neglected to consider that there are other religions here. Dare I say that I've personally experienced some very obvious homophobia in Thailand, but it was in the south from Thai Muslims. Pretty much the same (bad) feeling as western homophobia.
