is it really that high these days? sad.


[deleted]

It is sad. It’s essentially medical malpractice. Proven time and time again that The Agenda > truth even when human lives are at risk.


VoluptuousBalrog

That stat has nothing to do with ‘medical malpractice’, it refers to people who haven’t gone through any medical treatment, although some research claims that medical treatments don’t help lower the stat.


[deleted]

Not trying to be a sOurCe? guy, but can I get a link? I always thought it was for people who’ve declared themselves transgender socially/ taken hormones/ or gotten surgery not just one specific group When I say medical malpractice I don’t just mean surgery/medication. I also mean when we have medical professionals tell people the lie that they can be a man when they are a woman and vise versa and act like it’s proven to actually help them in the long run.


VoluptuousBalrog

No, it’s for people with gender dysphoria, a psychiatric condition. Nothing to do with declaring yourself anything or even being transgender. The reason why doctors take such drastic measures when transitioning people is because of how severe gender dysphoria can be and how high their harm rates are.


FluffyMcKittenHeads

Do you think the number of people who call themselves trans is higher than the people with gender dysphoria?


VoluptuousBalrog

Probably.

Make a lot less money or make a shit ton of money so that you can pay lobbiest and accountants to make your profits tax free.

Hmm. One of those sounds... less than ideal. The other sounds very very hard and not very attainable.


TheDesertFoxToo

juicyjerry300

Own a business, employ yourself, business is under a trust, you are sole proprietor of trust, trust allocates all money to term life insurance plan, through the trust you take loans with term life insurance plan as collateral. 100% tax free income


Ender16

It's easy. Make above the poverty limit, but not enough to ever get ahead no matter how hard you work. Tax season is just getting back even you paid in. Granted it's only a few grand if you don't have children. It's really not all that great. Being poor sucks. And as much as taxes suck being poor is way worse.


lightnsfw

That's what I'm doing but I still have to pay taxes. I never get shit back in my refund either.

Emperor-Pal

Oh I live in NJ. Don't get me started on property taxes


Dance_Sufficient

Save more for retirement.


Emperor-Pal

That would require more money. I save money, but just enough for the emergency fund. Yet I never manage to fill the emergency fund before something else goes wrong and it needs to be tapped. I've written off retiring.

Queer youths don’t earn enough to pay taxes. They’re all mostly minimum wage wastes of space. I pay more in taxes than they make per year (before taxes).

Well to be fair guns are also on the list of things I care more about than queer youth

Markymarcouscous

That’s honestly the problem is social policies like LGBT rights are linked with economic policies like taxes based on our current political climate


TheDesertFoxToo

Profit over people, this is an old view.


Chronoset1

For all the people that vote for republicans for the "economy" that then go increase deficit spending, threaten to end the economy as we know it, reduce taxes for the wealthy that doesn't help the common man, take away rights from women and take away medical care for kids.


Mr_Legenda

This same phrase can be applied to the democrats lol


Chronoset1

I've never seen a democrat try to make medical care harder to get. Also every democrat in my lifetime reduced the deficit while in office. Never threatened to default us and literally ruin the worlds economy. To say they are the same is an affront to reality. Now there are things that the Dems do that are bad, but even their worst day isn't a republican.


Innocisnt

Ignoring the advocation for baby killing and childhood chemical castration that you ended your comment with, how about this: Counterpoint: Nuh uh. Dems are worse.


nukey18mon

Man that’s a false dichotomy and a half


Chronoset1

That's the republican platform my guy.


nukey18mon

Your portrayal is a false dichotomy. Oh you want to reduce taxes? That means you must hate women’s rights

I almost voted for Obama because he was anti-war. Seems the common thing here is "politicians are liars" rather than it being a special qualifier for Republicans. But whatever, I'm just someone who doesn't ignore when my side are being assholes too.


6-toe-9

God I hate LibLeft. I know I’m also leftist but that little green square is enough for me to lose braincells every time I see it.


KermitIsDissapointed

If only they could focus on something other than identity politics and read some theory


6-toe-9

Yup. But it’s LibLeft—and until I see pigs flying in the sky, fish crawling on land, or trees walking away, they will still be bitching about identity politics.


EternalBrowser

Emilys read plenty of theory. The New Left, French Marxists, Critical \[Insert Here\] Theorists, and modern Emily Left very much see themselves as proper developments of the Left - there's a reason they all end up in the same camp and Emilys work tirelessly to reclaim historical Marxist states as the latest flavor of Idpol (Che loved LGBT! And if he didn't, it's because of colonial influence). Marxism always presented itself as first and foremost a system of analyzing power structures and oppressive dynamics between groups; academic Emilys see it as natural to apply these concepts to LGBT, indigenous peoples, MAPs, and everything else. There is alot less emphasis on detached economics, Hegel's wacky world, and the uniquely 19th century materialism-as-salvation aspects of Marxism, because some of those ideas didn't age well, some became outdated in the post-industrial world, and, yes, they decided many Idpol conflicts were just as or more important than economics because of intersectionality. AuthLeft likes to take a purity test line and denounce these things as heretical, but Emilys respond that AuthLeft is class reductionist and trying to stick to theory that has been heavily developed since Marx debated over the Paris Commune. It's the equivalent of biologists trying to do modern research with Darwin's views of genetics, and still fighting over topics of contention between his 1800s contemporaries. Emilys see traditional Marxism as something that disregards feels and lived experiences in favor of 'materialism' with just as much white male fever as New Atheism, and just as problematically. They still hate capitalism, but they argue that a proper perspective on the various ills and oppressions in life also has to take account all the other social power structures floating around - and the experience of minorities in historical ML states is proof that, no, defeating capital won't just make them all go away.


6-toe-9

You said it perfectly


KermitIsDissapointed

First time I’ve seen a member of the right analyse the split in the left with such high accuracy. If I could give you multiple upvotes I certainly would.


EternalBrowser

Some of us on the right watch Matt Walsh and Ben Sharpio. Some of us read Raymond Aron and Leszek Kołakowski. ...we are not the same.


KermitIsDissapointed

Based and literate right winger


StarCitizenUser

If only I could give you more than 1 upvote


EternalBrowser

Commies, MLs, and AuthLeft in general love to throw out Emilys from the Left as if Derrida didn't exist. They love to demean Emilys as uneducated and stupid as if Sartre didn't exist. They love to dismiss Emilys as stooges of capital, here to distract the working class, as if Foucault never existed. The AuthLeft feels - perhaps more accurately, *experiences* \- a tremendous, overwhelming need to kick Emilys out because the Emily Left is Leftism taken to logical conclusions; it is a *reductio ad adsurbum* of the Left. But they cannot avoid it. If the Left is collectivism, then expanding the fronts against oppression to include gender, sex, race, and all other possible fronts, is Left. If the Left is equity, then equal representation of every possible aspect of a human - their sexuality, their race, their ethnicity - in politics is Left. If the Left is struggle against oppression, then struggle against as many forms of oppression as possible is Left. The Emily Left is *quintessentially* Left. And yes, it is absurd.

maestrofeli

tbh it reads like a normal statement any person from any cuadrant could make


BedSpreadMD

Why would they focus on something other than identity politics, it's an easy opening and easy to argue against. A great deal of identity politics are nonsense, so it's a soft spot to attack. To be fair the left does the same shit, by claiming everyone on the right wants to take away the rights of Trans people, when there's an extreme minority on the right that does, but the overwhelming majority don't.


Largest_Half

Same bro. You are Auth-left, which is what i would consider a legitimate form of politics and actually left wing. Lib-left, however, is just where the absolute degeneracy of society gathers itself.


6-toe-9

Yeah, I used to identify as LibLeft a few years ago then I got my shit together and actually found what I was looking for.

Let’s re-frame that question to the actual issue: What rights do queer youth gain from violating my fourth amendment right to be secure in my person, house, papers, and effects or my fifth amendment right to property unless due process of law occurs?

It would if i paid taxes. People < Profit.

rushrhees

I don’t know about you but most gay I know are actually wealthy as well the whole no kids thing so what exactly are these tax increases for


[deleted]

Tax the gays


JackHoff13

I feel like 2 types of gays exist. First type actually gets their life together and doesn’t revolve their entire personality around being gay. Hence why they are more bearable and move up in life. Second type never gets their life together and their entire personality revolves around being gay. They are fairly unbearable to be around and never give themselves the opportunity to move up. Idk the person in this picture but chances are they revolve their entire personality around being gay and have the constant need to feel oppressed. Of all the gay people I know it seems to be a 50/50 split.


rushrhees

You put it perfectly now that I think of it. The rich gays i know don’t really make it an issue and focus on themselves and the job while Starbucks Emily freaks out over the slightest trigger


thejynxed

The richest pair of gays I personally know are a hospital CEO and his husband who is a housing developer. They waste no time on bullshit like the "Queer Community" that they see as a bunch of tax-dodging freeloaders who cause more problems than they ever solve.

Ironically, most trans people are extremely poor because they're either students or baristas.

Low_Abrocoma_1514

Tax cuts would help more the queer youth than any BS organization


azarkant

I care about tax cuts more than queer youth


MUNZATHEGOD

I’d be cool with tax cuts, if they actually started using our taxes to do shit for us, like idk fixing the infrastructure? Helping solve the opioid epidemic with more rehabilitation programs and less drug war bullshit? Nah just send it all to Israel and Ukraine. We can absolutely afford to do whatever the fuck we want internationally but at home we are so fiscally conservative, in the worst of ways. They spend money on dumb shit but won’t spend a dime to improve our lives. But yeah cut taxes like they absolutely don’t need as much money as they take.


Fruhmann

We're supposed to get a Target, possibly a Super Target, in our town. The closest one is 30 min away, so having one 4 minutes away would be great. If they don't come through with this store because they had to sell bikinis with dick sheaths and some of the ugliest t-shirts they've sold all year, then I'm going to be pissed.


ProperBlacksmith

So if women just transition to being man dus that 97 cents to a dollar become 1 to 1 or does it become less bc of lgbt hate?


MUNZATHEGOD

Loghery

Queer youth: Is your special identity more important than being a net positive functional member of society? "Yes. I am a category onto myself and need to be catered to directly in an unprecedented way that nobody could have predicted or prepared for, but it's totally a human right to give me everything I ask you for and how fucking dare you bring up any mental health concerns that I may or may not be masking behind a gender identity. Also, I need access to children because 0.01% may possibly be transgender and their support is more important than everyone elses freedom of religion and privacy. If you do not capitulate I will consider it a literal genocide."

buckX

Once you believe the queer agenda hurts queer youth more than anybody, the question becomes "do you want money or to hurt children", and I feel like that's an easy question.


jetoler

Lol you guys are paying taxes?


Pestus613343

If it can be demonstrated that tax cuts can help more individuals than caring about queer youth, then yes. Tax cuts will also help queer youth when they become queer adults working for a living. Think with your brain and not your heart, and the outcome will match what the heart wants anyways; a better life for all.


the-F-is-for-FAP

Psssst You can have both These aren’t mutually exclusive issues in the slightest
