Let's talk about what we can do about the border. How about crime? Let's talk about what is really important. Who the heck cares about pronouns and all that other junk? Drag Queens? Ridiculous!!
It's not about drag queens -it's about public institutions deciding that libraries are places for a group defined by a sexual fetish, to meet up with children.

If you are cool with this, why?

We have people putting “her/them/she” on their social media bios now.

are these the great things you're referring to?
I know right? Guess we're stuck with pronouns. They have nothing good to talk about so it's all about pronouns and racism and cancel culture and equity...so sick of hearing about it. It's a broken record.

Changing words that upset those weak on the left.

So sick of these crazy people in the White House. I wish they would concentrate on doing good things for the American people instead of all this ridiculous nonsense that tears us apart.

You rarely ever hear of any good things this administration does but I guess since all they want to do is destroy the country, in their eyes these are good things for them and helps them reach their goal of tearing us down.

All I can do is hope and pray people are smart enough not to vote for these people again in 2024 but you know they will once again 'fortify' the election and win once again.
If you are tired of hearing about it get off the internet. Its the MAGA people who keep bringing all of this up. I have seen zero threads started by leftists who opine here. Zero. Its all right wingers. I spent the afternoon working on my house and playing with my dog. You know what, none of those subjects came up. Tune out, unplug. Enjoy life. Get some fresh air. Lots to be thankful for.

And nice to throw in voter fraud conspiracy theories. That bit the dust with Fox News finally admitting there was no voter fraud.

The great danger is that people think the policies have changed, and now the likelihood of the labour government returning to power with the same policies, has increased - this actually illustrates a useful tool of manipulation by those in power, that if it's not in the news, then it's not happening .... more so in NZ's case, as the current government has funded media in a very unconstitutional move.

lol. That is so stupid. This silliness is what is important to the dems. Trump said if Biden in office things would be horrible for the country but never did I think it would get this bad and ridiculous. I'm left each and every day shaking my head at the things they create and how they think. It's like when Biden got in office, they all turned crazy. We need normalcy back.

You know why they're doing that? To trigger the conservatives.

And it's working.

If I were a leftist I wouldn't bring it up either. I'd be embarrassed that this is what y'all believe and think. We are just saying how ridiculous y'all are in the things you want and what is important to you.

If those of us on the right thought the world was going to end tomorrow because martians were coming to take us all away in their spaceships, then of course y'all would be starting so many threads about how crazy we are. lol

So of course we see y'all as crazy and start threads. How about come back down to earth and talk about the economy, crime and things that are important to all of us. We don't need to discuss drag queens and transgenders and racism and division. Let's change the subject toward something good for all of us.

I hear lots of things on the news about what the current admin is doing. Maybe you should change up the news sources you read or listen to.
