You literally gave them to me. "women you have been oppressed by men for centuries so you need to tear down the patriarchy" "blacks you have been oppressed by centuries by white people so you need to fear and hate them" (never mind that white people fought to abolish slavery) None of these are actually happening. They are just scary things to make white men think that the left hates them.
What exactly is your point? Religious freedom is essential in America. Not all Muslims are anti-feminist. Any decent person should protect the rights of all others to practice whatever religion they want, as long as they aren't harming others. Which is exactly what is happening here.
Cool. We can just find a few people and ask them questions to know how 1.5 billion people feel about something. That's not humans work. Humans aren't masses or groups. They are individuals. So, your video doesn't matter. What's your favorite color? Cool, now I know that all conservative's favorite color is that one. Right? There are 1.5 billion individuals that are Muslim. They are going to have 1.5 billion different opinions about every single thing.
Not white policemen. Many of the people who shot a black man were also black men. The whole point isn't to be scared of white people. It's about calling out that police in the US should have better procedures so they don't shoot an unarmed mentally handicapped person. http://www.miamiherald.com/news/local/news-columns-blogs/fred-grimm/article91170367.html Other than that, yes you have been imagining it, because that's not what's happening.
That dude isn't a biologist. Just because he says something crazy doesn't mean that's a normally held belief. Just because there's a "normal", doesn't mean there's no room for people who don't fit that category. Just because Jim only has 1 leg doesn't mean he's not human. Let's not build ramps, because we should just worry about the 99.92% of the time where people have 2 legs. Sounds good.
Nothing I've seen of him seems worth watching. I don't really watch much of anything, anyway. |

"What exactly is your point? "
my point was that leftist advocacy for islam is common and that islam does appear to be interpreted in a way that motivates violence more than other religions
"They are individuals.
There are 1.5 billion individuals that are Muslim. They are going to have 1.5 billion different opinions about every single thing. "
but what unites them is their religion which is far less splintered than something like christianity
"Not white policemen. Many of the people who shot a black man were also black men."
i'm aware of that but the media has been pushing the idea that its been largely white men oppressing black men unfairly
which to some degree i think may be valid, but its been overblown and facts like the one you posted here are being glossed over
"That dude isn't a biologist. Just because he says something crazy doesn't mean that's a normally held belief. "
supposedly he's a historian of biology which is doubtful but regardless my point was that he's an educator for transgender issues and his ideas are not uncommon for people in his field
"Just because there's a "normal", doesn't mean there's no room for people who don't fit that category. Just because Jim only has 1 leg doesn't mean he's not human. "
completely true but we don't use outliers to define the whole though and that's my point
