I felt bad about the pigs head incident until reading about this. You reap what you sow. This is the path they want to lead America into, more leftist liberal lunacy.
But bad orange man.
A pig is more appropriate representation of the Democrat party than the traditional donkey. I think it is time for a change of emblems.
In support of the suggestion that even 1984 is not taking it far enough, the Democrat party controlled House of Representatives is apparently proposing a rules package for this next term which would erase 'gendered terms' such as Father, Mother, Son and Daughter.
Let's be clear. There are two sexes, male and female. Or if you prefer, man and woman, or boy and girl. It is all the same. If you have a Y chromosome, you are a male. If you only have X chromosomes, you are a female.
This 'nonbinary' business is the talk of true lunatics who are gaslighting our society in an absolutely monstrous and evil manner. Seeing this being formally proposed for adoption into the rules of the US House of Representatives is a clear validation of the concerns that people have that the Democrat left is openly advocating for the destruction of our society in any traditional sense and that they are enabling the agendas of some serious psychopaths to the detriment of the normal population of people.
Maybe they just don't know how to follow the science.
So you didn't answer what the purpose of these changes are. So what is the purpose? It's the, what, 1% -2% of the population who are transgender that they're worried about offending? The left is pushing transgenderism. They want a population of serfs who are "its." MO
Which of the dystopian fiction writers has ever been as extreme and evil as what the Democrat left is currently trying to implement? I have read a lot of this kind of stuff, and I cannot think of one.

Well, perhaps, but I would go with something for the democrats more along the lines of a parasitic organism.
Say the Kamikaze horsehair worm (Paragordius tricuspidatus):
First, a tiny horsehair worm larva is eaten by the larva of another insect, such as a mosquito or mayfly. Once this emerges from the water, a cricket or grasshopper will snatch it up. Then the horsehair worm begins to develop inside the cricket in earnest.
But the worm's final stage of development takes place in water. The cricket wouldn't normally swim, or even hang out near water, so the worm must get it there.
By altering the functions of the cricket's central nervous system, the worm coerces it into jumping slap bang into the nearest body of water. The hapless cricket then drowns itself, allowing the horsehair worm to emerge and reproduce.
From the outside, you wouldn't be able to tell if a cricket had been infected, but neurologically, the worm is in control. Ben Hanelt of the University of New Mexico in Albuquerque, who studies the worms, says he has seen a whopping 32 worms pushing themselves out of one luckless host.
The liberal does something similar to its host, the taxpayer. At some point, the taxpayer mysteriously votes for its own destruction.

The purpose is to use gender neutral words when they're appropriate and and be more concise. These changes have zip to do with using ze or hir or any other made-up pronouns. If anything, these changes are decades late. The words 'children, spouse, parents, grandparents' are regular words we use all the time and do the job.
There's nothing CRINGEworthy about these House rule changes. The rule will change mother and father to 'parents'; brother and sister to 'siblings'; wife and husband to 'spouse'; son and daughter to 'children'; and the like. This isn't one of those pick your own gender or pronoun changes.
You should care. The supposedly tolerant left who says we should respect each other’s differences actually is in the process of trying to eliminate those differences. Women and men are different. We each have strengths and weaknesses that are balanced by the other. I want to be a man and be respected as such, and I respect women such as they are. This is all one step closer to a Marxist/Stalinist society where the elite live in their wealth and the rest of us are treated like peasants without differentiation.
You make a reasonable point...assuming this is *all* that they're doing (which I don't believe...remember the expression "slippery slope"?).
However, any and all changes like this cost time and money, so at best, this is a total waste of both.
yep, first thing that occurs to me is the money they will spend to form a committee, go through whats bound to be libraries worth of legislation to re-write and print and so on! all because 20 people dont like their pee-pees.
