I’m a normal gay person. I won’t mess with your kids. I won’t get on the 1984 train and say anyone under 18 is an adult. End gender affirming care in minors.

No. Make the tax rate 0%. Just print money. If inflation exceeds 3% fire all senators and congressmen immediately and bar them from running again.

Kids are not starving in this country. Just stop. Are biggest “problem” is child obesity?

It’s not your business. What’s so hard to understand? If a business doesn’t want to hire or serve Jews, veterans, or white people, that’s their right. You, as a customer, can blast them online. It’s private property, like your home, not public land.

You are, though, because you want to dictate how a business hires people, how much it pays them, what licenses they need, and dictate their zoning and permits.

McDonald’s is privately owned. It’s not owned by the public. Did socialists and communists infiltrate our government? Yes. Are they trying to make everything publicly owned? Yes. Are they doing it incrementally with laws that dictate how they hire people? Yes. Will Trump stop that? We shall see…

I’m 100% pro discrimination on private land. SpaceX for instance is private as is McDonald’s or my ranch or home.

I don’t really care. I live in Texas because of policies like this. If you prefer more government control, move to California. That’s the beauty of states’ rights—people can vote with their feet.

Nope. Private sector is better at everything.

Giving more money to public schools won’t accomplish a thing. They’ll just buy another useless admin building or hire some middleman to complicate everything. I’m done with this because, in Texas, we’ll have vouchers. Can’t wait!

You do realize all parents would get a voucher, right?
comment in response to
post
We have a $35 trillion debt and a $2 trillion deficit. Most states are in debt, and government officials can’t be trusted with our money. The solution is to give all parents a voucher.

Public schools here have useless admins and massive admin buildings. They won’t streamline unless vouchers force them to. They have middlemen for middlemen, siphoning money from teachers while micromanaging them, making their jobs harder instead of supporting actual education.

They can attend private school then. In Texas, it’s likely to pass soon, so the public sector will need to start selling off unnecessary assets and adopt a streamlined private school model.

If we vote on school vouchers they do.

It’s a fool’s errand. My kids’ district is paying a $160,000 salary for a football coach and spent about $7 million on a high school football stadium. Governments are not efficient by nature. Just give parents vouchers.

Social Security needs to be phased out. Medical power of attorney can be handled through contracts between individuals. Legal guardianship can be managed with adoption papers. I’ve thought this through—plenty of species have lived for millions of years without government contracts.

Trumper? I’ve never voted, but okay. I did look it up. Using the 0.5% population growth rate from 2018, we met our projected population in 2024. If COVID caused excess deaths, we’d see a dip in the overall population, but we don’t.
comment in response to

The U.S. population error margin is ±1-2 million due to census issues and migration estimates. We don’t know exact deaths. COVID deaths averaged older than prior norms, suggesting many died of age, not COVID.

He’s never said he would overturn it at the federal level and I don’t think marriage should be a function of the federal or state government to begin with. You don’t need the government or even a church to love someone forever. People can simply sign business contracts and buy things as partnerships

Women voted to overturn Roe v. Wade, not just men. Abortion isn’t banned; it’s left to states, and laws vary. Personally, I believe anything past 20 weeks is murder. As for COVID deaths, it’s impossible to know since our population fluctuates by ±2 million. The death toll is within the error margin.

How is that done when they lack ID and their home country has no record of them? It’s hard to sift through propaganda from both sides, but it sounds like they’re granted asylum with little vetting. In some cases, it also seems they take children from parents and exploit our rules.

And? Even if we were equal, you’d still complain your neighbor has a bigger dick. People whining about inequality are just jealous. Why does evolution favor this emotion? Maybe it’s fear of rival tribes overpowering you for having less. But why kill if they need workers?

Independent? Really? Kids are helpless until they’re around 10, meaning they’d likely not survive if left to run the show. From 10 to 18, they require intense guidance just to have a shot at becoming independent. After 18, they’re legally independent, but before that, they’re under my protection.

No trickle down? The poor 100 years ago died of starvation. Today our “poor” are fat and have smart phones.

And it’s why your party was blindsided in the last election. The Democrats alienated many swing voters by creating echo chambers. All I know is that both sides lie and create self-fulfilling prophecies with no underlying principles. I’m after the truth, so I follow all sides.
comment in response to

I did, and I’m not scared. For the last 41 years, every election has been framed as if it will end the world if you don’t vote. Literally, every cycle, people like you from both sides say, “Oh my God, the sky will fall, and it will rain rabid wolves if you don’t vote for my guy.”

I feel like you all want the country to fail just so you feel validated. I feel like you want to make it happen to feed your ego. And I feel like you want to feel in control, so you’ll fight every pick Trump makes and take him to court.

SLAPP laws (Strategic Lawsuits Against Public Participation) are legal actions intended to silence or intimidate critics by burdening them with costly lawsuits. Anti-SLAPP statutes protect free speech by allowing early dismissal of such meritless cases.

What if my public school sucks? It’s not your tax dollars—it’s ours. Why can’t parents use a portion of theirs to choose another school? The idea that private schools won’t accept kids with special needs is simply untrue. My child has autism and behavioral issues, and several private options exist.

It also puts blinders on you, leading to surprises like Trump winning. Many of you probably have Trump supporters in your lives, but they won’t tell you because they fear you might harm them or lash out, thinking they’re a Nazi.

How is asylum defined and vetted? How are you certain you aren’t letting in bad actors?

Only 20 million joined BlueSky. Maybe there aren’t that many hardcore leftists anymore. I’m not saying you shouldn’t go to court—that’s your right—but in a year, if you realize Trump won, you might have to accept that your views need to change if you want to be happy.

Then who owns them? The state?

It’s up to the parent and parent alone because parents own their child. Marxists don’t believe that and they’ve high jacked science. The “studies” on gender affirming care in minor prove that.
comment in response to

Same for Democrats? What’s your point? Some are single-issue voters, and those issues vary. For example, some gay people oppose gun control and vote Republican despite aligning with Democrats on other issues. I think you’re projecting. Not everyone agrees with all party positions when voting.

I personally like trans people, but I’m 100% against gender-affirming care for minors under 18. I’m also completely opposed to it being labeled as child abuse to refuse such care. I’m a lifelong non-voter, so you’d need to ask a variety of Republicans. Voters have mixed views, with some overlap.
