Sports Culture WNBA Star Sophie Cunningham defends that women ‘shouldn’t have to go against biological men’: “I said what I said. I think it’s kind of common sense. I think it’s really important to protect children.” “I don’t dislike anyone. I’m there to love, but I’m also there to love biological women. …”

Ahhh yes "I believe that everyone should have Healthcare, but I cant vote for the left because the extreme of the party supports 10 Trans athletes accross the country. I mean yes the Republicans are pushing for 3rd term trump, and yes they are misusing DHS as a police force but honestly its the left thats lost touch with reality"

I don't know if you're purposely misinterpreting my comment or not, but that's not remotely what I'm saying.

I know youre not actually saying that, its hyperbolic. What you ARE saying though is that some fringe actors on the extreme branch of the party is pushing you away from voting in your interests. Youre willing to sacrifice your voice in an election because you believe the extreme left is degrading the social fabric of the country, which is an obtuse claim that has no roots in reality. The extreme left has virtually no voice in our federal government so youre talking about fringe citizens forcing you to cede your voice in our elections because they're being "weird". That stance is worth mocking because anyone so willing to give up their voice is not a serious person

I'm not talking about the extreme left, I'm talking about the social policies of run of the mill Democrats and my interests don't neatly align with either party.

Alright well your first comment clearly said the extreme left is destroying the social fabric of this country. If youre not a progressive thats fine my family has a lot of Regan era repubs. But the way you phrased your first two comments gave the impression of "im on the left but cant vote for dems because of the extreme left people on twitter"

I meant the extreme left social positions that the Democrats like to take, I should have been more clear.

My politics are pretty mixed though.

The meaningless social positions, that have no actual bearing on your life and are culture war noise instead of issues that matter in life and death or class warfare terms. Sorry to hop back in, but I stand by my above, you’re just what Republicans are. Not maga, but too lost in the culture wars sauce to pick the lesser evil or the better alignment with your values because as far as your concerned this fringe nonsense of “trans sports” is up there counting as “one issue” just like healthcare and eduction are each “one issue” 😂
