Novel? No. But sufficient to deal with your weak ass snark?

Absolutely. :)
Yes, yes, I get it. I'm racist and fascist because I disagree with you. Can we skip that part? I've heard it a million times before and I guarantee it won't be any different when you do it

You're "I'm not saying it's aliens, but it's aliens"-esque needle thread is not the 'have your cake and eat it too' qualification you think it is.

You're doing the same old dance and thinking 'jazz hands' makes it different. It isn't. It's hack bullshit and doesn't require anyone's "a game".
"...I have been gravely disappointed with the white moderate. I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in the stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Council-er or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can't agree with your methods of direct action;" who paternalistically feels he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by the myth of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait until a "more convenient season." -MLK Jr.

For the 79th time, I'm not blaming the entire LGBT movement.

And yet you're here repeating redirect that has been proven to be a slander campaign against LGBT people and the movement.

Yeah, sure, ok.

It was an exaggeration based on failed attempts. That's all they're saying.
Their assertions that this shit actually impacted anything are still unfounded of course. If Kevin Spacey's stupidity didn't amount to anything i'm not sure something this unclear will.
Actual damage to reputation can be polled and measured. And yet only assertions and anecdotal are brought up.

Good thing race and gender aren’t equivalent.

This sounds a lot like pedophile apologism. A child should not be dancing lewdly for adults, period, regardless of the type of adult. What the fuck, dude?

That's why.

No, people have been trying to equate pedophiles with LGBT for quite some time now to the point that people buy into that association without thinking about it.

There's even a movie in the 60s talking about avoiding homosexual pedophiles.

Well, for one thing, race is a social construct based on clumsy grouping of ethnic groups, and one is cultural with no actual basis in biology.

That's probably quite a hard line to define though. I assume you'd be with me on banning child beauty pageants, but what about ballet recitals? All that bending and doing the splits in revealing clothing, an argument for it being lewd could easily be made.

What about gymnastics, which people tend to start young, or swimming? Both of which tend to have revealing clothing.

Clumsy grouping of ethnic groups based on physical traits. And the other is cultural and based on physical traits too.
Doesn't seem that much different to me.

Race is very loose, but mostly correlated to place of origin and ethnicity combined with skin pigmentation.

Such you cannot change.

Gender is a perception of yourself. Which is subject to change.
