Is anyone here a fairly neutral, middle of the road, kind of Democrat? I mean just the standard, plain old Democrat who isn't perhaps a big fan of the progressive wing but still a liberal overall. Maybe a 40yr old straight white female, with a husband, two kids, a dog, a cat, had quite a bit of partners in college but is all settled down, had a few abortions but that was ok since you had to get a degree, drives a Prius but also has a gas SUV for those long camping trips, drinks wine during the weekend with other strong females.


Are you at all worried about how far the LGBTQZ has gone, I mean come on, even you misses strong woman have to see that things are getting really weird. I try to put myself in a Democrat's position, isn't it obvious things are changing really really fast. I mean men are becoming women and it is celebrated, celebrated. Boys are becoming girls. Tran queens are reading books to children. The following is a real photo as far as I can tell, this is not photoshopped

I have a friend that actually was until this past year. She turned Republican for this last primary here in SC.
I really was surprised. She's old school liberal Democrat (70 years old) and she told me the Democrats went too far this time.
Old school meaning when the Dems were for the blue collar working class.

If you feel comfortable, I would be interested in you almost interviewing her. Maybe even record it and upload to youtube. Ask her questions like, "Was the far right Christian extremest right after all?"


Also I am glad you mentioned the age, because it will be the older Democrats who are most likely to switch. We all know people tend to be more liberal at the young age and have a higher chance to turn conservative the older they get. But still the overall trend is shifting left.

This stuff is looking more and more like an SNL skit. Very difficult to take seriously.

From the Democrats ?

Yes I specifically put her age because Democrats of that age are not the same as the progressive Democrats today.

What a minute, is this stupid or what?

From the article: "The nearly four-minute Navy video emphasizes how members can create "a safe space" for their colleagues by using "inclusive language" that signals they are "allies" who "accept everybody." Service members must take these steps to ensure they do not "misgender someone." The Navy also warns staff against pressuring an individual to disclose his or her gender pronouns, saying that colleagues may still be in "the process of discovery" and not yet ready to provide this information."


Soooo, you cannot assume someone gender due to their clothes, haircut or look because you might offend them but you are also not allowed to ask them what they want to be called because they might still be figuring it out so what is left?

Can the Sailors take advice from Biden and if the person is overweight you can call them "Fat". If they are asking silly question you can call them a "Stupid Bas****" or if you flat out do not like them then there is always the ever popular "Lying dog faced pony soldier"...



Just how many Transgendered people are in the Navy that the majority need to dance around them?



This is Dumb.

It's not just the Navy but the entire United States. It's beyond dumb.

Glad to see the Navy is focused on the big issues!

It was bad enough when President Biden got thirteen service members killed because of his stupidity in Afghanistan, but we look so pathetically weak in the eyes of the enemy... This crap needs to stop!

From the article:
Screw that crap.
Government is not the Lord & Master and Holy Guide of Society.

They ought to keep their man made "religion" to themselves.

Absolute garbage. But I wouldn’t expect anything less from Joe Biden or Demcorats.
