YooHoo super they fashion slave you do not need to do anything to be trans
or non-binary also Kink is not inherently sexual but this story is about a non-binary Geral who
wants to be rmic gymnast hey everybody I'm Brad Palumbo and welcome back to damage control my
podcast where I'm reclaiming the LGBT community from the insane extremists on either side
who've taken over the debate on these issues today we're talking about a UFC Fighter's viral
rant and whether it was based or homophobic plu
s a Christian group tries to cancel a company over
a commercial and as always I round out the show by reacting to some insane Tik toks from the
leftwing alphabet Community if you're new here consider subscribing we just crossed 100,000 on
YouTube and it's so great to have you all here with me and if you're listening make sure you're
subscribed on whatever podcast platform you tune in on and do consider like and commenting on the
video as we go along but now let's get into it so I'm a little
bit late to this story because I
wanted to wait and cover it on damage control with my audience that's uniquely interested in
these subjects but we have to talk about what UFC fighter Sean Strickland just said this past
week that went Mega viral he was at an event in Canada and a reporter presumably a kind of woke
reporter asked him a series of questions about the LGBT community and he did not take kindly to the
line of questioning I think it's fair to say take a listen and apologies in ad
vance to my producer
who's gonna have to do a lot of bleeping here uh we've got a pretty supportive gay and lesbian
community in this city I did want to ask you about something you wrote A couple of years ago
you said if I had a gay son I would think i' oh look another another the I'm saying the swamp you
guys the swamp you become a champion you become a star and and someone say let me ask you something
are you are you are you gayers are you let me know are you gay could I get an answer wel
l I'm asking
this is a part of are you are you a gay man I'm an ally of the community okay if you had a son
then he was like you know you had a son he was gay you'd be like oh man you don't you don't want
a grandkid no problem with it oh man well D you're a weak [ __ ] man dude you're like you're part
of the problem you elected Justin Trudeau like would you [ __ ] when he sees the bank accounts
like you're just [ __ ] pathetic and and the fact that the fact that you have no [ __ ] backbone
and
and has he shut down your [ __ ] country and seiz bank accounts you asked me some stupid [ __ ]
like that go [ __ ] yourself move the [ __ ] on man really the question but I did want to ask
also things you said about the trans Community you said uh this past October when they announced
the budlight sponsorship that you'd go so hard on budlight in your next fight they'll have to accept
me or denounce me when uh when they know what and they will know what they stand for are you this
guy'
s like this Canadian is not that Canadian are you still gonna use your fight time to kind of
speak on that here's the thing about Bud Light here's thing about Bud Light 10 years ago to be
trans was a what a mental fing illness and now all of a sudden people like you haveing weasel your
way in the world you are you are an infection you are the definition of weakness everything that is
wrong with the world is because of [ __ ] you and the best thing is is the world's not buying it
the world's
not buying your [ __ ] [ __ ] your [ __ ] pedaling the world is not saying you know
what you're right chicks have dicks the world's not saying that saying no there are two genders
I don't want my kids being taught about you know who they could [ __ ] school I don't want my
kids being taught about you know their sexual preference like dude this guy's enemy you want
to look at enemy to our world it's that [ __ ] right there asking these stupid questions so a
lot of people on the right online
were basically heralding this guy as a based King who school
did he woke reporter uh here's what some of them had to say so we had Jesse Kelly who is a
right-wing radio host he said this is a how-to video for Republicans dealing with apparates in
the media stop trying to win them over stop with the qualifiers stop denouncing what they want
you to denounce treat them like the pawn scum they are Tim P the massively popular YouTuber and
podcast host said holy F fire fire fire this guy's A+ ri
ght here thanks budlight for bringing us
this message on the infection that is the woke left Matt Walsh as you might expect was a big
fan of this and the daily wire host tweeted Sean Strickland for White House Press Secretary 2024
I'm going to break with many people on the right who were kind of lapping up what this guy had to
say which is not exactly unusual for me and say that well there were a few things in there I kind
of agreed and appreciated with I'm very much not a fan of Justin Tru
deau for example I actually
have some serious issues with the message that this UFC fighter conveyed in this viral clip I
will say though I think people on the right have a point when they complain about the reporter
why are you bringing up LGBT politics at a UFC press conference like come on can't you just ask
questions about this sport I do agree that that is annoying and dumb and I wouldn't blame Shan
Strickland for wanting to shut it down but I do have an issue with the way he chose to
go about
that honestly what he had to say about fathers accepting their gay Sons is really it's gross
it's unkind and and yes it's homophobic it's also ignorant for whatever reason He suggests that gay
people are incapable of having children so you'll never have a grandson or a grandchild but that's
just not true gay people can and do have genetic Offspring through surrogacy all the time and while
that's controversial it's it's a fact that it happened so it's not impossible to have a geneti
c
grandchild just because your son is gay you're also assuming you don't have any other children
and more importantly gay couples can and do adopt so unless he's suggesting that adopted kids aren't
really part of the family or that adoption is not a legitimate form of family formation I don't see
what he's going off about about wanting a grandkid and not being able to have one if you accept a gay
son the other thing is your son's gay whether you accept him or not so your acceptance isn't go
ing
to change whether you get a grandchild out of it is what it is it's your choice to be accepting
and loving or to not but either way you're going to have a grandkid or you're not and I really
take issue with the assertion that accepting your gay son makes you a weak man which while some
people on the right TR say that's not really what he was saying roll back the clip can I can I get
an answer well I'm asking this is part are you are you a gay man I'm an ally of the community okay
if yo
u had a son and he was like you know he had a son he was gay you'd be like oh man you don't
you don't want a grandkid no problem with it oh man well did you're a weak man dude you're that's
exactly what he said on the contrary I actually think it takes a strong man to put accepting and
loving his child over his own genetic narcissism and toxic ideas about masculinity so I actually
did see why people were upset by his comments and found them kind of homophobic additionally what
he said about
transgender people wasn't great yes gender dysphoria is a mental illness that's simply
a fact it's in the DSM but he kind of spat that out like it was a vile dirty word when in reality
people with any form of illness including mental illness deserve our compassion and empathy just
because someone has a mental condition doesn't make them an outcast or a freak or suggest that
they're somehow Beyond The Pale in the way that everything about his tone seemed to suggest we
never apply that kind
of thinking to people with anxiety issues for example and I don't see why
gender dysphoria would be any different I respect a wide variety of opinions about gender related
issues but I think everybody should be kind and compassionate in the way they approach them
and that is not how he came off in that clip of course unlike many of the left-wing critics I
don't want this guy cancelled for what he said I don't think it should have any bearing on his UFC
professional career but I do totally d
isagree with all the people on the right who are praising
him as if he's some bold truth teller rather than just another ignorant athlete popping off
about politics in an uninformed and unintelligent way now UFC president Dana White came out and
responded to this let's take a listen to that clip about like you obviously give a Long Leash
to your Fighters about you know what they can say when they are up there with a UFC microphone
and you are getting into territory of homophobia transphobia
like is there I don't give anybody a
leash well I'm saying you a leash I'm like free speech control what people say going to tell
people what to believe going to tell people I don't tell any other human being what to say what
to think and there's no leashes on't any of them what is your question I was asking that question
I'll move on though yeah probably a good idea you that's ridiculous to say I give somebody a leash
Free Speech brother people can say whatever they want and they can beli
eve whatever they want
I'm totally fine with what Dana W had to say here and I think if a company wants to have a free
speech attitude towards its employees that's great and again I don't think Shan Strickland should
face professional consequences just for saying something I find ignorant or objectionable but I
do think the criticism and bad PR are fair game still if UFC wants to allow this kind of free
speech atmosphere does it want to police what people say that's all good with me but tha
t does
have to go both ways that means a UFC fighter is going to have to be allowed to trash America if
they want to mock Christians or trash Israel or do anything that might upset some of the same
people who are Herald heralding Strickland as this Brave truth teller the other thing is that
I'm detecting some serious conservative hypocrisy here because how many times have we heard from
people on the right that they're sick of athletes taking woke political stands remember LeBron
James and
the whole shut up and dribble Fiasco oh and LeBron and Kevin you're great players but
no one voted for you Millions elected Trump to be their coach so keep the political commentary
to yourself or as someone once said shut up and dribble now I'm personally pretty sympathetic to
the idea that athletes should stick to sports and avoid weighing into politics when they don't know
much about it and it's only going to divide people but what you can't do is complain about it when
left-wing athletes
speak their mind yet celebrate it when conservative athletes do the same thing
which is it shut up and dribble or yes King keep up the brave truth telling you can't have it both
ways at least not without being hypocritical I'm just asking for some basic consistency but of
course in 2024 on either side that's a lot to ask do we want athletes fighting the culture war
and making charged political stat ments I'd really prefer that we just don't do that don't go there
but if we're going to that
's fine let's just be consistent about it let me know what you think
about this controversy in the comments section I want to hear if you have a different opinion let
me know I'm always open to push back or criticism but I'll leave it there for now and I wanted
to bring you guys a little bit of a different take on this story because basically all I saw
on the right was one-sided uncritical all 100% Fanfare for this guy and while I can appreciate
him telling off a woke reporter and him troll
ing Justin Trudeau I still don't like the actual
substance of what he had to say about the LGBT community up next a Christian group is trying
to cancel a company over an offensive commercial they did featuring a gay couple so the latest
subversive left-wing company pushing the gay agenda on the youth is Turbo Tax the company just
released this ad and I'm going to just roll it so you can see it for yourself you're welcome turot
tax for the free PR you can send checks to my po. box but guys j
ust just take a listen uh to it or
review to it and let me know what you think when Doug and Andre came to Turbo Tax we navigated a
turbulent housing market by buying a Boer home but we didn't know the first thing about filing
taxes his first-time home buyers I knew how to make their move count we file taxes for millions
of new homeowners and guarantee 100% accuracy on land and sea was that a shark yes make your moves
count inck TurboTax 100% accuracy guaranteed so this commercial struck me
as extremely anod and
honestly it's not even super clear that they're a gay couple except for his arm being around the
other guy in one of the scenes but it's pretty lowkey and honestly would would probably go over
the head of many very young viewers but as far as the gay agenda goes this is isn't that this
is just an ad depicting gay people existing and apparently that is still even in 2024 upsetting to
some people on the religious right not everybody I know lots of y'all are are much mor
e open-minded
and modern but some people still aren't so we've got reporting here from lgbtq Nation about 1
million moms the right-wing socially conservative group that has condemned turbo taxes commercial 1
million moms claim that the ad tries to push the gay lifestyle and redefine family it appears that
Turbo Tax is promoting same-sex marriage to please a small portion of the population while pushing
away the much larger percentage of potential conservative customers millions of Americans
strongly believe marriage should be between one man and one woman but Turbo Tax would rather
take sides than remain neutral in the culture war in an attempt to redefine family Turbo Tax is
using public Airwaves to subject families to the decay of morals and values while belittling the
sanctity of marriage even though homosexuality is unnatural this advertisement is pushing the
lgbtq agenda an even greater concern is that the controversial commercial is airing during prime
time when childr
en are likely watching television it is not a company's job to introduce so-called
social issues such as this this to our children Turbo Tax is glorifying sin and no sin should
be honored Turbo Tax should never have crossed this line they're not just complaining about the
commercial they've actually launched a petition and are hoping to boycott Turbo Tax because of
this incredibly offensive commercial this is right-wing snowf flaker and conservative canle
culture y'all if you're really so u
pset about a mere depiction of a gay couple existence that's
a you problem babe you need to put on your safety helmet get into your safe space and make sure to
cut yourself off from the offensive outside world where not everything is going to perfectly align
with your personal beliefs and religion the horror right you might actually see something that's
different from what you personally believe what a crazy thing to experience look gay people
exist and Society is under no obligation to pre
tend otherwise just to Shield you from having
to ever encounter something that depicts a reality you don't agree with in the real world you're
free to teach your kids whatever you want about homosexuality you can teach them your religion
teach them into sin whatever but the world doesn't have to censor reality to Shield them from things
that contradict your family's personal beliefs if we were going to play that game lots of us
could say that commercials should never feature a Christian fam
ily or a Muslim family or so on
that's just not how things work in a pluralistic and tolerant nation and you do not need to
worry about your kids seeing this and being exposed to the gay agenda and becoming gay like
babe that's not how it works or trust me I saw so many straight movies and straight commercials
and all these things over the years and it still did not make me straight obviously there are times
where I push back on an A A leftwing LGBT agenda being pushed in things but this re
ally isn't
even one of them like they're just showing gay people existing and that's still triggering these
Christian snowflakes the real world isn't a safe space that has to always reflect your personal
religious views I really don't have anything to say to these right-wing cancel culture people
other than grow up cope buckle up your helmet cu the real world is not your safe space and guys
if you don't like woke cancel culture if you don't like the kind of people calling for a boycott
of
UFC unless aan Strickland is removed from the competition because of his offensive words
well you shouldn't really be turning around and supporting right-wing cancel culture then either
should you hey guys Brad here just reminding you to also check out my other podcast the based
politics podcast which I co-host with Hannah Cox this week we're discussing Nikki Haley's
recent racism debate that she sparked we're also talking about Trump's promised to never
create a centralized digital currenc
y and is jiny aging faster than everybody else yes go
to the link in the description to watch the episode on YouTube or check out the Bas politics
podcast on Apple podcast Spotify or wherever you listen to podcasts all right guys up next it's
everybody's favorite part of the show because some of y'all are sadistic little guys out there you
really you like to watch me suffer you get some sort of pleasure out of it so this is I hear from
people all the time everybody's favorite part of the po
dcast where I subject myself to torture and
react to cringe left-wing LGBT Tik toks up first are they seriously still arguing that Kink belongs
at Pride the Kink Community belongs at Pride full stop they were an integral part of combating
the AIDS crisis also Kink is not inherently sexual and just existing as a kinky person in
public does not mean that you are performing a scene if you don't like how someone's dressed look
away I have a lot of problems with this but I also just have confusi
on did this person really just
say that Kink isn't sexual then what is it babe my thing is that I really don't care what adults
do in the privacy of their own bedrooms so knock yourself out but Kink has nothing to do with being
gay or being bisexual or lesbian or even being trans straight people have kinks too so don't
conflate it with our immutable characteristics your personal preferences and things that you're
into like like these are separate just maybe don't conflate them that please a
nd thank you
secondly you got to choose one either Kink at Pride or kids at Pride cuz right now people like
this are trying to have both and that is not okay not appropriate and giving the entire Community
a terrible look and a bad rap finally if you're going out there and you're Kink and fetish gear at
Pride you're essentially subjecting the public a bunch of people who didn't consent and aren't
really interested that in that to being being a part of that with you or to seeing you in your
gear or whatever it's like and that's not really cool in my book if you and your people who are
into that want to go do that knock yourself out I really don't care but I don't really think it's
fair to force that onto other people who just want to go to a a gay pride parade that they have to
be forced into observing or being around unrelated sexual fetishes like can we just not can we not up
next try to keep up with this gender confused tick tocker gender and presentation do not go hand
in
and gender is a feeling you have inside and how you present is an outward expression of your
internal feeling of gender you do not need to do anything to be trans or non-binary you don't need
surgery you don't need hormones you don't need to change your name you can look the same way you do
now use the same pronouns you do now and be trans or non-binary you also don't need to disclose your
gender to anyone discovering your gender is for you embrace the change and don't be afraid of it
y'all
can you can you'all keep up with this does this make any sense to you cuz I'm literally
immersed in this stuff for my job and it's not even mathing the math is not mathing for me
babe what's sad to me is that with this kind of woke word salad they're actually undercutting the
existence and validity of legitimate transsexual people who want to blend in and guess what key
to their idea of trans is the idea that you have to transition to be trans because you're only
trans if you have gender d
ysphoria which means you experience a severe discomfort between
your birth sex your biological sex and the sex that you would like to be perceived as or to
do the things associated with or live as that's what being trans means if anybody who just feels
like it with no criteria or action needed can be trans then it's a meaningless category one totally
Unworthy of legitimacy respect or protection you sure you want to go down this path babe cuz you're
not doing your own cause much of a service
with this kind of incoherent nonsense up next here's
a Tik tocker's guide to talking to pansexuals things not to say to pansexuals I'm watching
you so basically you're just saying that you're bisexual does this mean you're attracted to pans are we still asking this in 2022 do we
still not know what fans sexuality is come on all right so I will admit that the second one
is a cringe joke that was really never funny but it certainly isn't funny now that we've heard
of 10,000 times so like peo
ple should probably give that one a rest but the first one is an
entirely legitimate question to ask because there is in fact no difference between pansexuals
and bisexuals because sexual orientation is about biological sex not gender identity there are only
two biological Sexes so so if you're attracted to people in either of them you are bisexual I know
they say pansexual means that you're attracted to people regardless of gender regardless of sex
well there's only two Sexes so that's sti
ll the same thing as bisexual I think though what the
pansexual movement and label has emerged from is this desire to just like bisexual is so Blas it's
so like oh 1990s or 2000s or whatever it's not really woke enough or it doesn't get you enough
oppression Olympics points on the oppressed scale so they have to come up with some new thing to
label themselves the it's it's just an outgrowth of the obsession with labels and the making of
victimhood into a currency of course when you do that
you're going to have people counter fitting
I couldn't care less if somebody is bisexual but don't just kind of Gaslight us or insult our
intelligence by insisting that being bisexual is actually called something totally different and
unique that is just actually the same exact thing in practice maybe just don't do that okay up next
here's how this teacher teaches children about non-binary I think that teaching our children
to have empathy and respect for others is the number one most impor
tant thing we can teach them
so let me show you one of my favorite books I use to teach inclusivity and empathy in my classroom
it's called Peanut goes for the gold and Jonathan vaness is the author they are one of my favorite
human beings on the earth you might know them from queery but this story is about a non-binary
Geral who wants to be a rhythmic gymnast and they do all the things cartwheels ribbon twirling hula
hooping to meet their goal and when they get to the gymnastics meet they
forgot to tie their shoes
and they trip and fall but they ended up turning it into a magnificent move that wins them first
place but it's really just about how everybody has a different way of doing things and that's
okay um and we all just need to be true to our true selves and it refers to peanut as they or
there in the story because they are non-binary and when it comes down to it if teaching children
to be respectful of others identities and calling them what they prefer to be called is
the
worst thing I do as an educator then I'd say I'm doing pretty darn good I'm not so sure
I would say that girly you should not be using the position of power and privilege and Authority
granted to you as a teacher who's entrusted with people's most precious thing in their life their
children to push nonsensical left-wing gobbley G on impressionable young minds this is really bad
non-binary isn't a coherent concept it doesn't make sense even to rational adults who do their
best to try t
o comprehend it you are only going to confuse young children by putting this seed in
their mind and you're also kind of telling them something actually very regressive about gender
and gender Norms well this gerbal is non-binary is that they them because the Geral doesn't like
things that are boy things and girl things oh what are these boy and girl things you say well the
Geral doesn't like dresses or makeup or sports or guns so you're literally just pushing sex
stereotypes and gender outd
ated gender roles and Mis misogynistic Concepts basically that
that girls have to be feminine and girly or else they're not a real girl how many tomboys
or eff feminine little boys are you going to hopelessly confuse with this nonsense just let
kids be kids man and and if when they get older any of them have struggled with their gender
identity organically and they come and they want to be identified as non-binary or whatever
deal with it then but don't start pushing nonsense on them when t
hey're so young they're still
reading picture books come on this is crazy and I really struggle to imagine a better way to
piss off normal Americans than to push propaganda on their little children you want to trigger
a backlash to the LGBT community keep doing stuff like this girly keep doing it you're doing
great if that is your ultimate goal all right finally a video from my favorite tick tocker
Jeffrey Marsh let's go yooo super B fashion slave what pow have you been nice to a trans pers
on today
have you complimented someone been sociable to an lgbtq so much of our existence and day-to-day
experience can be about feeling isolated and like we're not included and you can change that you
can be kind people write me all the time how should I treat trans people like everybody else
be inclusive be kind be sociable be nice thanks so the first part of this video just made me
a little uncomfy but you know what it's cringe but knock yourself out I guess do whatever you
want I'm mor
e interested in the latter part of this video where Jeffrey encourages people to be
kind and so sociable to trans people have you been nice to a trans person today well babe I'm not
particularly nice or sociable to anyone except my dog so the answer to your question is probably
no but I wanted to talk about this because I love the inherent contradiction between the things
that Jeffrey and other activists like this person what they'll all say go out of your way
to be nice and kind and accomm
odating to trans people but also just treat them like anyone else
well which one is it I've believe in the latter approach right of just treating everybody the same
and assimilating and all that but they only want to believe in that when it's convenient when it's
time for affirmative action or identity politics or special shout outs and extra niceties then
identity is very important but when it's time to that they just want in that instance to be
treated like everyone else that's what they
want well cupcake you can't have the best of both
worlds anyway I can feel a headache coming on and I don't have any adill in the house so I'm going
to have to stop it there for the insane leftwing LGBT Tik toks if you got a kick out of this if
you found it interesting or insightful and if you're here you probably did or at the very least
you just enjoy watching me suffer drop a like and comment with your thoughts and maybe consider
subscribing on YouTube or following on Facebook or if you'
re listening on audio podcasts rating
and reviewing it would be a huge help now I'll see you all next week on damage control but if
you're not sick of me yet and you want more of my content you can go here or here to check out some
of my other recent videos you might just enjoy
Comments
The only thing I can agree with is that “allies” are causing us a lot of problems. But yes, free speech should be universal, regardless of political affiliation.
I am a straight white woman, so I really don't have a dog in this fight, but the whole argument about parents wanting/expecting grandchildren is a ridiculous argument, in my opinion. To me, that's a form of blatant entitlement. Your feelings towards your kid should not be dependent on whether they want to have children in the future. There are women who want kids but can't have them, couples who have fertility problems, people who spend much of their lives single, and people in happy relationships who simply don't want to have kids. There are many situations where parents don't end up with grandchildren, so having an expectation of having them and holding it against someone when they realize that may not happen is gross and an unreasonable responsibility/expectation to put onto someone. Sure, feeling disappointed because your kid didn't do what you wanted them to do or expected from them is normal. But as a parent myself, I would see that as my responsibility to deal with on my own time, because my child's choices are theirs , not mine.
I’m gay and I get frustrated when celebrities are asked stupid questions regarding their opinion on LGBTQ. Stop trying to inject that BS into everyone’s life.
Thanks, Brad, for reminding us ignorance, intolerance and downright stupidity exists on the Right as well as on the Left. We at the Centre have to make sure the two wings do not flap so hard they tear society apart. Many well-considered observations and comments, as usual.
The alphabet people will set Gay rights back 30 years.
I love that you call out both sides, Brad. Too many people treat politics like a sports game and support their team even when it's performing the same crappy actions of the other side.
When I was a single mom raising my daughter in a very expensive area, the struggles were real. I did it to give her a bit of a leg up. It was not easy. Luckily, one of her best friends had parents who understood and helped out a lot. Those parents were two gay men. They are amazing people and awesome parents. That said, I am in complete agreement on all points with you, Brad! Oh, and btw, my daughter will graduate in May a Doctor. All my love, admiration, and appreciation to aall that helped along the way!
There's no reason at all why reporters should be at a UFC event talking about gender politricks.
I stopped going to and supporting "Pride' in 2010. The 2010 Davenport, Iowa Pride event was advertised as "family friendly", but what saw was not in any sense of the phase "family friendly". If you have to be 18 to enter a sex shop, how are the shops allowed to sell items out on the parade route with minors present. Not to mention the public nudity and simulated sex acts. I'm not a prude, and I have indulged in a hedonistic lifestyle for many years. But children are not allowed into this part of my lifestyle.
13:11 I'm a Christian and I don't think the TurboTax ad was bad. Gay people exist and not everyone shares my views and I'd be a hypocrite to say that the should being as I don't want views pushed on me. These men weren't doing anything lewd. They shared their experience. Big deal. Nothing was pushed. It was a normal commercial and it was inoffensive.
Listening to that attempted "question" and its attempted "answer" makes me feel like we've finally arrived at Idiocracy levels of intelligence.
In regards to the ufc fighter, I agree with the trans comment, and disagree with the gay comments. In addition, while I agree I don't like athletes getting into politics (unless it effects they're carrer, such as the trans women athletes situations) I do think it's not hipocritical to comment if you get repeatedly asked the same political questions every press conference. If it came up unprompted, I would have a different tune. I know I wouldn't be able to my tongue if I was pushed on something over and over. And also, I disagree with the canceling of the ultimately innocuous gay couple commercial.
As a Christian I think Christian's need to pick their battles, and grow up.
Thank you. I felt sick. This was really sad. I love my son so much. I can not imagine not loving him for something so banal. And if he does turn out to be gay, I'll still be nagging for grandkids and be impossible about it :D
This is entirely the fault of the TQ+ The LGB must drop the TQ+
I love Brad being based and unbiased as always. Calling out what needs to be called out, regardless of the side.
I generally like your POV. Im a gay conservative, and i didn't have problem with Seans commentary. He was working, and pushed to a place of anger when prompted stupid questions. Let us NOT forget where and when he said what he said, pre and post fight, most athletes are absolutely filled with adrenaline and hyper focused. I won't sit around being sensitive over a man's opinions when he sits in a hyper masculine environment. Just let it go...
He’s ignorant yes. But the response is a direct result of people online being insufferable and that’s scary. The view of lgbt is changing so dramatically because of them
Lebron was an advocate, no one asked because they didn't have to, he volunteered and drove the conversation. This guy responded to a question that shouldn't have been asked in the first place.
The lady who said that you don’t have to change anything to be trans is clearly just wanting to jump on the gender bandwagon to get clout, but doesn’t have gender dysphoria and therefore doesn’t actually want to change anything about herself.
