What current topics with which you disagree have you learned to accept and which will you continue to protest? (illegal, borders)

[katharsis]

It seems to me that the same topics appear over and over again on P&OC, and that some people refuse to "just let go" of a losing battle, no matter how fruitless the protest. What is on your "list" of issues that you are either ready or not ready to admit defeat when the current trend is not in keeping with your personal beliefs?

For myself, I have accepted the current "verdict" and have given up on protesting the following:

- That Trump lost and that Biden is POTUS and will remain so until if and when the Democrats have had enough*

- That governments will continue to pander to adults who are transgendered regarding their choice of bathroom and changing rooms.

- That so-called "Progressives" and their views are here to stay for at least the next few years


What I have NOT accepted and will continue to protest:

- Critical Race Theory being promoted to both the general public and in public education -- including the ideas that ALL whites should be ashamed of themselves and their history, and that blacks are not capable of succeeding without extra "help"

- School districts continuing to hide their "woke-ism" and liberal bias to parents and even lying about what their children are being taught

- Giving any kind of benefits to adults here in the U.S. illegally**

- Outlawing abortions in the first trimester (and in some cases, later than that)

- Schools encouraging children to question their sexual orientation

- Pronouns other than those on this list: https://www.thefreedictionary.com/List-of-pronouns.htm



*I am NOT a Trump supporter, but I voted for him because I considered him to be the lesser (barely) of two evils.

**I do support the idea that people should either become citizens (and make it easier for them to become citizens) or that they should not be permitted to remain here.

I've learned to save various ones for later.

I’ve learned to live with (although I disagree):

—gay marriage
—abortion

I still will fight against:

—critical race theory
—transgenderism being normalized. I believe these people are mentally ill.
—open borders and handouts for illegals
—globalism
—climate change theory that blames humans for everything
—preventing voter ID laws
—Cancel culture

Not to be picky but these all fall under the umbrella of Critical Social Justice believe it or not. They all come from the same ideology. The individual versus the collective.

It seems too simpleminded but in this particular case it is true. And by CSJ I mean communism.

Seems I am consistent in my objections.

I am old school.
God ,Family and Country.
Yet so many are offended.

Drawn to such word trickery.
Keeps them constantly off
balanced and confused.

Such a terrible way to live.

Citizenship is something that can and should only be attained after coming to our country legally. No exceptions! I will never give up fighting against the illegal invasion of our country.
