What to call this thread?

fine
BUT !
#1,863 is satire.

Stairways are not a deliberate malicious insulting affront to the wheelchair-bound.
Without heterosexuality, what would become of the human race?

It may not be beneficial to keep secret from children the "two daddies" story.
Is it beneficial for children to engineer children's stories to estrange them from ideals, including enduring love?

"PC" meaning "politically correct", "woke" slang for enlightened / informed, disdainful term used by the agenda-driven
aware that comprehensive understanding of their position exposes its corruption.

As a counterpoint meme #1,863 imparts a useful message.
But it's satire. It would be a mistake to interpret #1,863 too literally.

It is not necessary to insult ("DISGUSTED") the majority to respect the minority.
 
This AM I dialed up early morning TV to get a wildfire smoke map to learn
if it's safe to get outdoor cardiovascular exercise in my neighborhood today.

What has that to do with:

During the CBS-TV broadcast there was a PSA:
The FCC is the U.S. regulatory authority that grants license to broadcast within the portion of the electromagnetic spectrum it regulates.
And the FCC has made broadcasting PSA (Public Service Announcements) a requirement for licensure.

This morning's CBS PSA?
There are moments in life when we don’t act based on how someone looks, who they love, where they’re from,
or what they believe. Because the things that make us different will never change what makes us human.

Let's find more ways to champion our shared humanity every day.

This brief public service announcement won't bring MLK back to life.
None the less in our "dog bites man" news environment, a tinge of less unwelcome news seemed a beneficial way to usher in this weekend.

Have a good weekend.
 
Anti-equality Republicans were never going to stop at trans inclusion.

The Heritage Foundation says Title IX is a "failed experiment" & women should stick with activities "more aligned with average female interests" like yoga.

It's clear their target is Title IX and ALL women.

After Pushing Anti-Trans Laws to ‘Protect Women’s Sports’, Project 2025’s Heritage Foundation Now Wants Women’s Sports Gone to ‘Assist Fertility’​


 
"Project 2025’s Heritage Foundation Now Wants Women’s Sports Gone to ‘Assist Fertility’" #1,866
Amusing, EXCEPT !
Athletes, those that participate in sport, are widely considered among the healthiest among us.
So Heritage is suggesting, to optimize reproduction, women should be excluded from this "healthiest" category?

Alright. BUT !
Human reproduction is a binary. It requires both female and male contributions.
So if avoiding peak physical fitness is an improvement for women, shall we extend this benefit to men's sports as well?
 
After Idaho’s near-total abortion ban drove OB-GYNs out of the state, a Christian “crisis pregnancy center” called 7B Care Clinic signed a deal to have real doctors visit them from neighboring Washington.

But they required those doctors to sign a statement endorsing its religious and anti-LGBTQ beliefs. The doctors said no and the contract was canceled. Pregnant women will pay the price.

 
"Pregnant women will pay the price" S2 #1,868

States with the highest abortion rates after Roe v. Wade experienced a 30 percent greater drop in crime by 1997 than states with the lowest rates.

Economists Steve Levitt and John Donohue observe that following the 1973 supreme court ruling Roe v. Wade decriminalizing abortion across the U.S.
resulted in "a massive crime drop".

While it is true in the previous millennium the Republican party compiled a reputation for political conservatism and law-&-order
in the Trump administration it is the opposite.
Rather than maintaining policy to keep our citizens safe, the Republicans have:
- reversed settled U.S. law by overturning its own Roe v. Wade precedent
- perpetrated mass-murder abroad, including bombing a children's school
- are perpetrating murder indiscriminately within the U.S., reportedly based on an arbitrary quota requirement

Yes.
Certainly them.
Unquestionably them.
Undeniably them. BUT !
Not only them.

"He that would make his own liberty secure, must guard even his enemy from oppression; for if he violates this duty, he establishes a precedent that will reach to himself." Thomas Paine

"The policy of the American government is to leave their citizens free, neither restraining nor aiding them in their pursuits." Thomas Jefferson


This pseudo-cons & neo-cons is what genuine conservatism looks like.
Please do not pretend to political conservatism to ennoble your corruption.
