We have "anti-racist" mathmaticans telling us that 2+2 = 5. We're descending into stupid world. So sure, some "scientists" are piling on to pure stupidity.

It's really simple:
  • Born with penis: Male
  • Born with vagina: Female
  • Born with both or neither or some combination of like that: Birth defect, will require sorting out.
What you feel like or what you imagine is irrelevant. If you want to play dress-up, fine. Have fun with that. If you want to pretend to be the other gender, go for it. But gender has always specifically referenced genitalia that you're born with.

The earth doesn't become flat just because a bunch of people believe that it's flat. It's no different with gender. Truth is still truth, even if nobody believes it.
well stated.

I think I know what you are trying to say, but just so you know the "Stars and Bars" was never the flag of the Confederacy. For most of it's brief existence, the flag of the Confederate States of America was this:



I have very seldom seen that flag flown anywhere recently. The flag you think is the Confederate flag is actually the Battle Flag of the Army of Northern Virginia:



Meanwhile, the political Left is downright stupid, largely now considering the very banner under which the slaves were liberated to be a symbol of racism, bigotry and fascism. I'm talking about the Flag of the United States of America of course. Leftists sure do hate it!! But Trump voters sure love it!! Isn't that odd?



If you are willing to acknowledge the obvious fact that all Biden voters are and were Autoritiarian Marxists intent on Revolution, destroying the government and all systems, and then building their Marxist Utopia from the ashes -- well then maybe it's true that everyone who voted for Trump is a Confederate Flag waving Boomer. But otherwise, can we just acknowledge that taking a tiny minority of a group of people and assuming that everyone else is exactly like them is insanely stupid.

I think the store owner is a fool (even if something may be factually correct, that doesn't mean it should be said from where I stand), but I am also not in the business of confronting people over speech. And certainly not if I'm in a position of power as it can be seen as an abuse of power.
