Yep.

I reached the same conclusion this way: Discrimination is bad, but because you have to be able to discriminate to maintain a standard, that means no more standards-- because standards are discriminatory.

There's no way to say "No" once the train leaves the station.

The implication is that they know their bullshit is made up attention-seeking nonsense.

A truly delusional person would insist that they are in fact a cat-person, because they actually believe it, but that other people are how they appear not how they claim to appear. Like how reincarnated Napoleon gets upset when he meets another Napoleon at the asylum.

These people didn't have anyone that slapped them (physically or mentally) and told them to stop being idiots. When you're growing up people need a father or male role model to set limits so you grow up knowing how a normal person behaves. Turns out Footloose was actually a tragedy where the dance-banning hero fell and couldn't prevent society from degenerating into trash people.

I've been feeling that way about quite a few older movies that I used to think had a happy ending, but now realize the good guys lost.

Why do faggots believe they are anything other than a Joke without a Punchline?

Because they don't have anyone in their lives to tell them, and their misguided notions have been reinforced for so long that they just cut anyone off who doesn't perceive their lunacy as valid.

The university published this guide with links to sources stating that some people may identify as felines and others could use ‘emojiself pronouns’, which refers to the use of emojis to express a pronoun, which can be gender neutral.

According to the LGBTA Wiki the guide linked out to, "someone who is catgender may use nya/nyan pronouns". Nya/nyan means “meow” in Japanese. Catgender is also described as someone who "strongly identifies" with cats or other felines or “experiences delusions relating to being a cat or other feline".

At my job, last year they had a womxn appreciation day. What's a womxn? It's both women and transwomen. But then someone pointed out that using the term "womxn" implies that transwomen aren't women. Oops. This year it was just women's appreciation.

This is one set of clowns complaining that another set of clowns is making them look clownish.
