    You did, as clear as day. Flip...flop. Own it at least.

    I'll say this. Back in the day a guy would NEVER wear a pink shirt. Over time that stereotype has changed and I had some pink shirts when I used to play gold. But the rainbow thing has been symbolized to have a specific meaning and I don't think the people who gave it that meaning will let it fade away.

    Nope. Sorry you're upset I said something wasn't divisive. You might want to talk to someone about that

    You don't have to wear a rainbow shirt. You know this, right?

    I'm asking a serious question because I don't know, there's no intent at sarcasm or anything like that. Does the Buttigieg marriage have two husbands? Is that how it's referred to?

    I believe that is how gay men who are married refer to each other. Does it really matter all that much to you? If so....why?

    Rainbows are supposed to adorn children, not adults, and especially not deviant adults. I thought those people were supposed to have an eye for accuracy. But apparently it's all about self promotion, preening, and flaunting. What will they steal next from children.

    And a rainbow shirt is forcing something on you? But not a let’s go Brandon shirt?
    I don’t think Kamala has any intention on running, I think vp was all she wanted. Tell her to get our governor to run.

    The discussion is about indoctrination, not "forcing". Did you hear any indoctrinating going on in that video?

    I had a pink pullover about years ago. I wasn't gay.
    Remember when a guy with an earring in the left was gay, but on the right ear was straight? (or was it the other way around?) I don't have any piercings, but that used to be a thing.
    Point is, it's not something to get worked up over. Things change with time. When they don't, it's time to start worrying.....

    I heard the mother asking her son why he doesn't want to wear the dress to school. Is that what you consider indoctrination? I'm trying to understand specifically what she said that you consider indoctrination.

    Here are some specific quotes from the video that I think qualify. It's probably worth mentioning that indoctrination isn't about a particular word or phrase, but an entire pattern of behavior, sort of like grooming children for sexual assault isn't about a particular word or phrase said once, but an overall pattern of behavior. With that caveat, here's what I hear in that video that strikes me as indoctrinating:
    "What did we learn from 'My Shadow is Pink?'"
    "What makes you like dresses so much?"
    "Do you think that's your innermost you?"
    "Jeffrey Marsh is one of the most beautiful people"
    "I guess you have to decide if being you is the most important part of you."

    The short video is a little glimpse into a larger pattern of indoctrinating behavior. At least, that's how I see it.

    You forgot
    "Wait...you want it, you love it, you picked it out but you don't want it for school. Can you tell me why?"

    Asking why he likes the dress doesn't strike me as indoctrination. Nor is asking if he thinks it's his innermost self or her telling him he needs to decide if being himself is the most important part of him.
    My Shadow is Pink is a kids book however, I wouldn't have a kid that young reading it and should he know who Marsh is, probably not. But maybe the mother felt with the kid having a like for dresses that she would try to teach him to be ok with himself and not worry about other kids making fun of him. Neither one of us knows the actual motive of the mother.
    Nothing in the video proves the mother wants to push her son to be a girl.

    Ah .. so that's what you call it?

    Going out of their way to promote one infrequent deviation from the norm, to the exclusion of all others?

    I heard Disney changed the look of Darth Vader for the new Obi Wan Kenobi series.

    Who is being excluded by promoting the new line?
    Do you must think Ford is suddenly excluding all their other vehicles if they have a commercial promoting their new line of F-150s? People still know their other cars still exist and are still available to purchase. Or do you think people walk into a Ford showroom and say “ Hey wait a minute. Where did all these other cars come from? I thought you only sold F-150s???”

    I'm sorry, but Christians will have to get in line behind the Indus Valley Unicorn Association that has filed a class action suit (along with International Brotherhood of Lurchopáns (Leprechauns) based in Ireland) against the LGBTQ+ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWYZ Movement for stealing the rainbow. Apparently, the IVUA's claim goes back to c. 2450-2200 BC so you'll have to wait your turn and hope they don't sue Christians next.

    No that’s not where I get my info. It was just a quick concise video that explained the points.

    Plus I thought the pictures would help you.

    It looked like something a MAGA fan would fap to.

    Do you complain when religious people broadcast their book club with clothing, necklaces, billboards, and going door to door to harass others?
