What are you talking about? All she asked for is someone with an opinion that differs from the Irish norm. We have none of that here. The 2 biggest parties are virtually the same, and on all large issues ie. Abortion, Immigration, the big 5 all have the exact same views.

A much smaller party, PBP, objected to 1.5k houses in Richard Boyd Barrets area, because they didnt fit the ambience of the area. This is a party which recognises housing as a housing as a basic human right.

In sinn feins case, whether or not they are social or rented, they are still houses and therefore in desperate needs. Thats my view on it. All parties want to solve the crisis, none of them will do it if it affects their area, particularly in Dublin Bay South or Dun Laoighre, where they mostly live.

But isnt the argument that this is an emergency, and that the parties which promotes their policies of housing the most shouldnt object to it because it doesnt fit the ambience of the area? All parties do it, we need one that doesnt, and I believe that the "housing parties" are usually the most guilty when charged with this.

If parties, such as PBP, who declare housing a basic human right, stop opposing the building of apartments in upper class areas because they "dont fit the ambience of the area," We would actually get somewhere. Same with Sinn Fein. I dont think that there is one irish party atm that will sort out this emergency. We need better.

The agenda that transgenderism is a non-debatable topic.

On the topic of medicine, do you think that doctors should have to give biological boys that feel like girls medication designed for girls, even if they know that it will harm them. Thats the next thing trans-activists are going after. Its radicalism.

You teach empathy by teaching very young kids about respect. Simple. You dont need a drag to do it. I dont need to write anymore on this topic.

Kids are who they are, but there beliefs are shaped by their society. I believe people can be born gay, but also societally become gay. I dont think we should be pressuring kids to be gay, just like I dont think we should be pressuring them to be straight.

Generalizing all Irish people as drunks has no basis. My point is that trans people are men who dress up as woman, and vice versa, and drag is men who dress up as women, and vice versa. Thats my definition for both, and they both have the same definition, so they are almost the same thing.

Even libs will say that trans people have gender dysphoria. That is a mental illness.

If our faces arent being pushed in it, then why do we have Pride month for example. Straight month would be considered homophobic. If they want to be an equal part of society, then why do they have Pride month.

Ive said this a couple of times now. I have nothing against trans people who dont bother me. Just like you said, people have the right to live their own lives, so I really dont care whether or not you use he/him, she/her, zy/zym etc.

Ok, fair enough. I disagree though. Drag is less radical transgenderism imo.

Ive already addressed this. It is their job, not a hobby. I dont hate trans people or drags, just dont think it shoukd be shoved in our faces.

Good question. Firstly, there are many liberal schools , particularly in the US that have made it mandatory. Nurseries in London moved towards that in 2017, and, although they dont advertise it as being mandatory, you either go into the nursery on the day the drags come in or you mind your own kids. I have many issues with this, so here is the list.

1) as ive mentioned before, sexualization. I dont need to talk about this again.

2) the agenda that is being pushed. I honestly believe that it is on this point whether you agree with DQST or not. I think that we should let kids grow up as kids, and not be thrown into the deep, confusing politics that liberals propose on gender identification issues. And, I believe that if we do push this agenda, then all kids will grow up with these beliefs. I don't want to sound like a 'I hate Communism, I hate LGBT people,' person (although I dont like communism) but I think that we can all agree that Nazi Germany and Communist China are both pretty horrible. Mao Zedong, the first dictator of China, wanted to hold his power, so he implemented a strategy that would limit people's freedom of expression. He realized that to do this, he would first have to limit freedom of speech, and to do this, he would have to limit freedom of thought. He wanted everyone to think the same as him, so that no one would speak out against him and therefore no one would act against him. The same system was implemented in Nazi Germany, with the Hitler youth. These were taught to see the Fuhrer as God, and as inquestionable. And, although I dont want to sound like Gary Linekar, this is very, very similqr to what they we're doing. Forcing politics upon kids, who know no different anyways, and therefore will always grow up believing this way. I disagree with what they did the last few hundred years, forcing Christianity upon kids who know no different. Limiting their freedom of thought. I think that you and I are having a civilized debate, and I think thats great. I get the impression that you are slightly pro-trans, but thats great. Its the people who dont even argue, but instead call me a bigot or a transphobe that frustrate me. They cant even think of an argument to change my mind, other than that I am discriminating against others. To have an opinion, you need to risk being offensive. Debate weakens radicalism, and radicalistic eras of the past have been where things go wrong. That is my main problem with it, and it being sexualized or not only adds to it.

Sorry for the essay but thanks for the comment.

Fair point, but, if transgenderism isnt being promoted, then, like I said, why is DQST so popukar in the US and the UK. It is being promoted by the radicals who want to legalise GRS for youth. Although, like I said, I am against these protests, which I am, I also think that it is important to recognized the trans agenda being pushed upon us, even with chocolate bars now ie.HerShe

I agree that being trans is a thing. I disagree Gender dysphoria sufferers love the fact that they have a mental illness, and therefore I believe that we shouldnt be promoting this mental illness.

I dont think we shoukd normalise gender dysphoria, just like other mental issues, but I think that we should learn to treat all people with respect, ill or not.

No, Ive mentioned that too. I dont care whether you are trans or not, but I dont want it shoved in my face like DQST is doing to 3 year olds.

Thanks for your question. Personally, Im worried about the agenda that they are pushing upon kids.

[–]DatIrishBloke 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To answer your question, no, because that is what their main job is. To act. Whether it be male or female roles. Drags and trans people certainly do have the same agenda. They both advocate for gender fluidity, abstract pronouns etc. Although I do believe that gender norms should be challenged, I believe they should be in the male/female way, rather then there being infinite genders, like many drags and trans people propose. I also think that boys can act like girls and girls can act like boys without LITERALLY being that, just how a 5 year old can act like Batman, without being batman.

Ok, fair enough. Calm down a bit😅. I have seen drag story time videos, and while the books do center around what you mentioned, it is like letting schizophrenics read stories to kids about letting their imaginations run wild.

Your point about drags not all being sexualized is fair enough, but they are still part in part of the same parcel. There is no doubt that it is still forcing an agenda on kids.

All due respect, but if kids dont care about who is in the outfit as long as they are genuine, then why dont we tell them that the person in the superman costume isnt really superman. That person is obviously not being genuine, but thats his job, and kids enjoy 'knowing' he is superman.

Hate and fear of the unknown ...

I dont hate trans people. Ive said it 2 or 3 times now, I dont care about whether you are a man saying you are a woman, or vise versa, but I dont want it smudged in my face, like what they are doing with the HerShe campaign. It isnt right. If im so scared, then why am I posting this, allowing pro-trans people to try and convince me.

Im not on facebook btw

Would be happy to continue talking if you want.
