    Too bad. What you term as TOLERANCE, many term as the INTOLERANT forcing of the Transgender lifestyle as normal down the throats of the American public. People are telling you, the collective who are INTOLERANT with the non-stop virtue signaling, forcing acceptance, to kindly back off. Most don't care about one hundred years from now, (let them fight their own battles), we care about NOW.

    Read the O/P again. He lays it all out as to what others should accept.

    So according to that this is just ONE culture war. Not matter, the right has lost every single culture war in the past. There is no reason to believe that this one will be different.

    Which, of course, will make no difference to them. I guess if you're on the wrong side of history every time, you have to get used to losing wars.

    You're correct in that culture wars are generational, but what parents and many others are saying, (please listen), is that they don't want the minds of their elementary children changed by far-left zealots/virtue signalers who are bent on making them accept the transgender lifestyle as something that is normal. Leave the children out of it! Listen to what parents are telling you. Parents of young children are winning this culture war for now.

    ive done a lot of reading lately and narrowed down our countries propensity towards fascism, back to the time of RailRoads and such, i beliebe once the right wing really learns to use the internet as a tool they will better identify political roots and causes here is a list of interesting videos....incidently shenan has mostly solved the jfk case as well

    one war. many fronts. i usually think of this in terms of the progressive era : suffrage, prohibition, and evolution. all seemingly won by the new deal, but dead enders on all fronts are still wailing at the local megachurch.

    Pronouns? So they boycott private businesses like Budweiser, they pass laws like "Don't Say Gay", they punish the representatives of Disney for exercising free speech because of ... pronouns?

    That would be even funnier!!!!


    Now.... that's more like it. This DEMAND that everybody must be "normal" as defined by the Bigotry Dictionary is why the bully beats up the kid with glasses (which is now "normal", but it wasn't just a few decades ago).

    This is why you guys ALWAYS lose the culture wars. Nobody gives a CRAP if you tolerate people you don't consider normal. Having Cancer is not normal. But you don't boycott a company because they feature somebody with Cancer in a commercial.

    So it's not a matter of "accepting" . It's a matter of control. And if you want CONTROL over other people's lifestyle, you will loose EVERY time.

    Tolerance needs to be crammed down the throats of the intolerant.

    Many off the steps the left is taking is also alienating some of there base. From my view point most people are just interested in living their live and have no extra time to indulge peoples delusions. If your are a man and want to wear a dress go for it, do a good job and you will probably be called she, do a bad job don't be offended when your are called a he. Keep my out of your live and you are free to do what ever the hell you want with it, it makes no difference to me. My two extremely liberal siblings right now are ha5a tough time supporting the silliness the left is pushing, they most definitely are not the only ones. Even my open borders brother is starting to change his mind. You need to look no further than inter cities were African American groups or protesting the massive inflow of illegals.

    What you consider "normal" is YOUR private business. Just like what somebody else considers normal is NONE of your business What we "cram down" people's throats is TOLERANCE. You can tolerate it as "abnormal" if you want... so long as you tolerate it. And anybody who goes out of their way to boycott a company just because an ad features somebody who is transgender is an intolerant bigot!

    1. It's too late.
    2. It's a very loud minority of parents.

    Culture wars are when one culture tries to destroy the other's culture by force, or by changing the language, or by co-opting education or the parenting of children, and uses social coercion as a substitute for free choice.
    Lastly Target:
    When a corporation puts trans merchandise on prominent display that represents 1/2 of 1% of the population, they are not merchandising. They are trying to change you.

    And "Everything DeSantis is fighting for" reminds me of an old Army basic training joke. "Here is your rifle. Shoot everyone who doesn't look like you."

    in the marines basic training is not a joke. we learn to shoot who we are ordered to shoot, whether they "look like us" or not.

    Sounds about right. It does sound like what DeSantis and fascists in Florida and other states have been trying to do.

    Makes no difference how you want to define it. The point is that MAGAs are losing.

    Do you think your 2024 candidate will support the culture wars like Biden is? I don't see it as a winning strategy.

    :above::above::above:You just defined INTOLERANCE.:above::above::above: Tolerance does not need to be crammed down the throats of anyone. Free country. Parents get to define what they believe is correct, moral, and ethical for their children. Their children are not YOURs, the Government's children, or Corporate America's children. Understand?

    Oh, and thanks for making my point for me. The far-left extremists/chronic virtue signalers need to mind their own damn business when it comes to cramming their intolerance down the throats of other peoples' children. Have a little respect. Learn some boundaries. Also learn that you can catch more flies with honey. :)

    It sure ain't working for DeSantis. It's not going to work for anybody unless they are on the right side of the war, which is the progressive side. As is always the case in culture wars.

    Just so you know......The people have spoken according to the poll below. The virtue signaling far left is not going to tell us what we must accept.
    • "68% of Americans say companies and brands should only speak out when it pertains to their business interests or clearly stated values. This is a bipartisan belief, with 8 in 10 Republicans and 6 in 10 Democrats agreeing."
    Companies ignore Target and Bud Light backlash and carry on with 2023 Pride celebrations (msn.com)

    Costco, Patagonia rank among highest reputation brands (axios.com)

    What they're saying: "Consumers are smart ... they know [when] there's virtue signaling," Gerzema said, which can backfire if companies try to appease multiple political viewpoints."

    The Walt Disney Company took a big hit in this year's Axios Harris Poll 100, dropping a dozen spots, to 77th, after tangling with Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis over students' LGBTQ+ rights.

    "Why it matters: In voicing opposition to DeSantis' so-called "Don't Say Gay" bill last year, Disney gained favor with Democrats but took such a large reputation hit with Republicans that its overall reputation score was severely impacted."

    none of US, "support the culture war." but we must defend our people from the constant "conservative" onslaught.

    biden, like the rest of us, would rather be managing the economy than playing these silly word games like "what is woman?"
