When I was a kid AOC’s position was right-coded, and it’s telling that the new Atlantic City version of the GOP has no interest in legislating on this.

@_namori_fan_ @joestar_jos How are these open border policies? As for encouraging migrants to come, every president has encouraged migrants to come to America, especially since WWII when Jews and others under the reign of Hitler tried fleeing to America for safety. Like I’m sorry, what?

@Anglican_Man @joestar_jos Reversed “Remain in Mexico” Paused border wall construction Expanded legal pathways for asylum Ended travel bans from some Muslim countries Relaxed enforcement priorities Encouraged migrants to come

donald trump is so much better than joe biden

@_namori_fan_ @joestar_jos Only when you actually explain how I’m being dishonest.

@Anglican_Man @joestar_jos can you stop being dishonest

@bawerk_bomb @redfollowsred @kevinwebsie @Lfromthenorth @nyaraVT Whatever you say? If you are going to be this disingenuous, there’s nothing more to say further if you are going to keep twisting not just my words, but others too.

@Anglican_Man @redfollowsred @kevinwebsie @Lfromthenorth @nyaraVT He’s said people often perceive him as a woman but he’s never said that he is a woman. Are you saying a woman is anyone who is perceived as a woman.. ?

It’s crazy how as a trans woman I’m just expected to “debate” my existence and validity as a woman, while governments criminalise our healthcare There is no nuance to be had when the media and politicians want us dead, but I’m supposed to convince every transphobe of my position

Yes and other videos from or with Blair. She stated how specifically she is a man in one sense and in another sense how she’s a woman. Especially elsewhere as she told Ben Shapiro that if she was at a resteraunt and somebody wanted to point her out, they’d have to say “there SHE is over there.” I’m aware of Blair’s complicated view on things, but you are just trying to focus on her saying she acknowledges she’s a man biologically speaking and going off of that.

@Anglican_Man @redfollowsred @kevinwebsie @Lfromthenorth @nyaraVT He literally says he’s a man. Did you not watch the video.. ?

@bawerk_bomb @redfollowsred @kevinwebsie @Lfromthenorth @nyaraVT Not really from all the videos I’ve seen where she said she prefers she/her pronouns and in the video you sent, stated she’s a woman, but not biologically. You are trying to twist her words badly to what you want to say and that’s disingenuous on your part.

@Anglican_Man @redfollowsred @kevinwebsie @Lfromthenorth @nyaraVT That means you’re saying he’s wrong and actually imposing the woman identity label on him.. lol

@bawerk_bomb @redfollowsred @kevinwebsie @Lfromthenorth @nyaraVT She’s a woman, based on gender identity and what’s she’s saying. I quite did answer the question.

@Anglican_Man @redfollowsred @kevinwebsie @Lfromthenorth @nyaraVT You didn’t answer the question.

Stating what what I already stated: she thinks ultimately, she can’t claim to be a biological female because she’s a biological male. But she’s stated in interviews with Michael Knowles and Ben Shapiro that she does identify as a woman in some sense, even saying she prefers she/her pronouns, but is opposed to legislation of penalizing anybody for using incorrect pronouns.

@Anglican_Man @redfollowsred @kevinwebsie @Lfromthenorth @nyaraVT Blair meets every conceivable criteria of being a woman under your framework. The ONLY exception is he doesn’t subscribe to trans ideology and therefore recognizes he can never be an actual woman (since he’s not female). youtu.be/-P0QDD_F5H0?si…

Today, on World Down syndrome Day: “My name is Rachel… and I’m very happy to be here.” 💛 Her story reminds us: Every life bears the image of God. Genesis 1:27 ⏩Read more: bit.ly/3NOczjW

Today in the Anglican Cycle of Prayer, we pray for Te Pihopatanga o Te Upoko o Te Ika in the Anglican Church in Aotearoa, New Zealand and Polynesia.

Today the global community marks the International Day for the Elimination of Racial Discrimination. The day was established by the United Nations to remember the lives lost during the Sharpeville Massacre in South Africa in 1960, when peaceful protesters opposing apartheid pass laws were met with deadly violence. The tragedy became a global symbol of the injustice and suffering caused by racial discrimination. Today the day serves as a reminder that racism, exclusion and prejudice continue to affect communities around the world. It also calls all of us to renew our commitment to justice, dignity and reconciliation. Across the Anglican Communion, our churches include people of every culture, language and nation. Yet racism and discrimination continue to wound societies and the Church itself. As followers of Christ, we are called to reject prejudice and hatred, and to work for a world where every person is honoured as made in the image of God. Prayer God of justice and mercy, you created all people in your image and call us to live as one human family. Forgive us for the ways prejudice and discrimination continue to divide your world. Give us courage to confront racism, compassion to stand with those who suffer, and wisdom to build communities of dignity, justice and peace. Through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. #Anglicans @UN

@WildWiredWeasel @Redacte20094317 @Glinner @sleepy_devo

@Anglican_Man @Redacte20094317 @Glinner @sleepy_devo 'if this is wha scientists would classify infertility as' It doesn't matter who espouses insanity. It doesn't merit supporting it.

Yo @sleepy_devo stop trying to get into women's spaces and sports, stop trying to force us to use your made-up words, stop getting people fired for not playing along. Then we will indeed 'leave you alone'.

Peace and blessings to @celestiumart for inviting me onto the space to discuss. We had some disagreements on the subject, but it was discussed with grace and understanding. Hope to have more dialogue with her in the future on a variety of topics. God bless you Celestium.

If you can unequivocally show she believes herself to be a man. Because as far as what I saw in recent debates, she identified as a woman, but just took issue with having non-binary as being part of the whole transgender thing, thinking it's nonsense. But if you find a quote where she is explicitly saying her gender identity is a man as opposed to being a "bioloigcal man" or "born as a male," then I would not say she is a woman. I am willing to be corrected if you can demonstrate this. But Blair has stated "I am a trans woman" while also clarifying "I am a biological man." Which is something even transgender advocates will agree with even about themselves, which is why there is a distinction between gender and sex.

@Anglican_Man @redfollowsred @kevinwebsie @Lfromthenorth @nyaraVT I’ll do that for you but before I do, if I provide that citation where Blair says he’s a man (because he understands a man is an adult male human) would you still say he’s a woman?

You never asked. "Sex is expressed at chromosomal, gonadal, and phenotypic levels." (Human Genetics: Concepts and Applications by Ricki Lewis) "Most people have a sex that is consistent on all levels: genetic, gonadal, internal genitals, external genitals." (Gender: In the Genes or in the Jeans? A Case Study on Sexual Differentiation by William J. Hoese, Judith R. Gibber, Bonnie S. Wood) Those are just two cases in which one provides the three, the other provides four. Overall books interact with parts of or all five of the same exact traits mentioned.

@Anglican_Man @One_Supernova And we’ve not seen your single “biology book” that you base your ideological arguments on.

The utter bullshit these gender cultists come out with 🤦‍♂️

I would say she is a woman. I have not seen anywhere where Blaire White identifies or says she is a man. She has said she is a male, which is correct in terms of the biological sex. But she identifies as a woman and says so in all videos I have seen, including debates she has with other transgender people. Can you provide a citation from any video or incident recently where she specifically identifies as a man and prefers to be viewed as such as opposed to stating the fact regarding her biological sex that she was born as a male?

@Anglican_Man @redfollowsred @kevinwebsie @Lfromthenorth @nyaraVT What about a “transwoman” like Blaire White who had gender dysphoria, fully “transitioned”, prefers to be seen and treated as a woman socially, but nonetheless understands he’s a man by virtue of the fact that he’s an adult male human. Is Blair a man or a woman?

@One_Supernova @JSpaz41 "Not any single book. But on the scientific/medical literature as a whole, on specific DSDs." Then you should be able to cite multiple to back it up and quote them to back you up, but I am not seeing that.

Not any single book. But on the scientific/medical literature as a whole, on specific DSDs. For example, literature says people with PMDS are male. Chart correctly classifies them as male. Literature says people with Turner syndrome are female. Chart correctly classifies them as female. Etc. Etc. Each DSD can be independently verified. Again, name one that isn't covered. (Or that is classified incorrectly). Good luck!

@One_Supernova @JSpaz41 "The chart is meant to include males/females with DSDs (or no DSD). You can quite literally test it." And which science book do you base this chart on?

@Anglican_Man @JSpaz41 The chart is meant to include males/females with DSDs (or no DSD). You can quite literally test it. If it is incorrect, you could say, for example, "But wait, females with X condition are not included". But you won't be able to. But I invite you to try.

@LulaLulaGT @Lfromthenorth @nyaraVT Your are shifting the burden of proof.

@Anglican_Man @Lfromthenorth @nyaraVT You’re asking this first, you’re setting down the parameters of an accepted definition or category, you should be able to answer it yourself .
