POLITICAL THREAD

I admit, the events of that day really disappointed, but I watched about 2 minutes and went back to work. We all were numb, by that time, to riotous mobs and no one really thought there would be an insurrection. I have not researched or watched much about that day. I find it irrelevant to my life.
Try me. As I said, I haven’t ever even participated in the discussion until now. But asking for data being met with “asshole” is a pretty good indication of your ability to bring anything of substance
Very poorly done
“Police Chief Stephen Mylett confirmed new details Wednesday and said there is no evidence the murder was a hate crime.”
It’s great to learn this murder was not a hate crime.
Ok so you found one - now we can talk or do you prefer the emotional namecalling?I will play along. Here is an article from webmd that states in most cases trans athletes do not have an athletic advantage over their cisgender counterparts.

In google searches, I can find a few main points:
1) few studies have really been done so any Olympic committee actions are being taken without absolute facts. So maybe all is well, maybe it isn’t?
2) studies DO show one year of replacement therapy does not reduce testosterone enough to eliminate an advantage. Needs to be reviewed, but in this case Lia has been trans for two years now or so?
3) which brings me to the point I was going to ask: is testosterone the right metric? Does it offset explosiveness, lean muscle mass enough to eliminate the advantage? This seems very much up for debate among medical professionals, but I guess If you begin to listen to this you are just a bigot and an asshole

The eligibility of trans athletes in major sporting events has come under close scrutiny as sports federations and politicians increasingly shape policies. The experts behind the studies weigh in.

Driving is so new and fun! It’s hard to slow down!!
Lia tested in the same testosterone range as all other participants. Testosterone is what provides all that muscle mass. Why do you think they have testosterone guidelines?Ok so you found one - now we can talk or do you prefer the emotional namecalling?

Knew that was coming. The political class and their allies in the media are a one trick pony.
You don’t have anything rational or relevant to post on this thread. You are just here to stop the discussion, because you lack the ability to defend your claimed “compassion.”
Rog, you understand, I am sure, that just because you claim a discussion about a current event is an obsession, it doesn’t make it so, any more than TC claiming someone is obsessed with genitalia. You want to divert the issue, which as of today is not resolved, because you cannot defend your liberal perspective. You are the one that sounds angry, not the people who are actually having the adult conversation.
And that article questioned the validity of artificial testosterone reduction’s effectiveness on said muscle mass, strength, explosiveness….. especially within a few years.
i train 6 days per week. I know what testosterone does with lean muscle mass. What I nor you nor anyone can really point to is clear study that absolutely proves effectiveness of artificial reduction of testosterone on these things especially In training athletes. It reduces some of it, yes. Question is does is reduce by enough? That’s not been proven other than an Olympic committee decision under woke pressure. That’s why they are mum on so many of these questions
Oh no, it's a definite obsession with you people. And a stupid one. Like I said, you're perpetually outraged by something.
Start with describing the difference between post-pubescent boys and post-pubescent girls. Then, talk about how Lia did in races in the same length races against men and then against women. You can run from the facts and science claiming it would serve no purpose or you can actually attempt make a case. Run away or stand your ground with an actual position. Crying that it would be too hard is just an admission that you have to argument.
Woke pressure is all anyone needs to see in this post to know what your biases are.
Are you claiming to have no bias? Of course you do. Of course I do. I don’t claim to not have an opinion…. I just think the namecalling and focusing on insulting the thoughts of others should be left to the bottom of the barrel of human beings. I’m discussing article contents instead
Biden Admin Takes First Step Towards Redividing Jerusalem
The Biden administration elevated diplomatic relations with the Palestinian government, in what diplomats warn is the first step to walking back the United States’ historic recognition of Jerusalem as Israel’s capital.

A little piece of me dies every day watching this kind of rot.
The idea that these trans athletes do not have an advantage is refuted by the fact that HS records in some states have fallen shortly after trans athletes were permitted to compete with women. Same in the weight lifting competitions in the Olympics. Same with Lia. Lia never won the races against men that he won or was in the top sphere and against women. Advocates for Lia have to work hard to overcome the obvious. The fact that they are working so hard to demonstrate Lia has no advantage rather than support the women who are competing at a lung capacity and developmental deficit is telling. Protect the narrative even if we have to deny the truth. It is not Lia’s fault he is a post pubescent man taking HRT, it is a fact. Could he compete as well against men as he once did? No. Does he have an unfair advantage against women? Yes. You have to believe a lot of coincidences to conclude otherwise.
If you have a daughter that competes or care about girls competing fairly, this is a real issue. Attempting to shame others for caring is childish.

Many medical professionals disagree with you. Let me guess. You are a doctor in addition to an attorney.
Every time I see something like this, and after my eyes stop burning, I think back to a phone conversation I had in 2014 with a friend of mine. We were talking about how PC culture and “tolerance” would eventually lead to some insane times.
Man did we short change it.
Driver claims someone pointed a gun at him so he lost control. Of course there is no proof of this, but this would be the takeaway from the story if it were to get national traction.
The effects of testosterone are done for Lia. No medical professional disagrees with that. The fact that you cannot post without taking swipes at others is sad and angry.
Yes because this is such a huge societal problem. It's just rampant! I still submit you're just an angry old man looking for things to be irate about.
Deflection how? You said what Trump did was unprecedented basically. I proved it wasn’t. No deflection at all. Or did I only deflect to something you don’t want to talk about.
Tried Upside the other day. Not too many places doing that app around me, but I got $5.49 back from a Hucks I spent $62 at to fill up my car. Sixty phuching two dollars to fill up my Hyundai Sonata that used to cost me about $25 to fill.
The election was stolen. If you think 81 million actually voted for this moron in chief. You yourself are a moron of epic proportions.
You cannot defend one think this moron in chief has done. You won’t. You’ll just deflect to muh trump, Jan 6 or mean tweets.
Defend this @jameslee32
