        Yeah most of my opinions are pretty traditionally liberal. I like this place because it seems like I am allowed to say my opinion without having to worry about a ban for not following the woke trend 100% to a tee.

          the “woke trend” is made up by US right wingers. since >30 years people were trying to be as tolerant as possible, so we can live peaceful and carefree and it worked. but they needed to polarize people, so they framed this a “woke” and agitated their followers against it. the people right wingers call woke never call themselves woke, because they are just tolerant and open-minded and that’s normal since the 90s. when you fight that progress of the last 30 years, you will end up in a boring depressing, disease ridden world again. a world in which people hide STDs, rapists are being excused and people who don’t feel well in their bodies or roles end up locked away in sanatoriums instead of paying taxes and contributing to scociety.

          • I 100% agree.

            I am absolutely liberal. I support all people that transition. It’s good for the economy. Hormonal drugs and surgical interventions are extremely expensive. This incurs a lot of taxes.

            I personally think those peoples decisions are stupid. But I also believe they are entitled to stupid decisions, just as I am.

              I’m in Canada. These operations are mainly covered by the taxpayer and does the opposite in our case. If they weren’t tax payer covered it would be a different story for my opinion in that regard

          In German Folklore, the rainbow is an indicator for where a leprechaun has hidden a pot of gold.

          Furthermore it is also the bridge to Asgard, the Bifröst, in ancient Nordic mythology.

          In science it is indeed a visual representation, that white light consists of many electromagnetic spectrums.

          And in todays day and age it now it stands for gay. 😒

          Hitler stole a Hindi symbol. And the gays stole the rainbow 🌈

            This is an example of actual snowflake shit. Stay frosty and fragile. Conservatives have and will always be the softest most coddled little babies, complaining about everything, all the time.

              Yes. We are. We are crybabies, constantly complaining that the world doesn’t work the way we want it to. I’d say we are not too different in this respect.

                Lol, if you think addressing real systemic issues in a hostile society and being big mad about rainbows or not being able to be an open bigot are the same then good luck with the pacifier and potty training. I’m very thankful we’re not the same.

                  The only difference between us is that I do not put myself on the high horse (I really hope this proverb exists in the English language, otherwise I will sound unproportionally stupid).

                  This means that I am am based, while you inhale copium on the moon, far away from real systemic issues.

                    I’m not sorry, based is the most cringe shit. A pack of assholes all patting each other on the back for squeezing out the biggest turds onto social media then farting out “based” like it’s the “no homo” of waster bigotry.
