Depends on definition. Equating liberals, conservatives, Democrats, or Republicans in the past to today is like saying Italians are descendants of Romans. Lincoln Republicans are different from Reagan Republicans which are different from Trump Republicans. JFK Democrats are different from Clinton Democrats which are different from Obama/Biden Democrats. I’d contend Trump Republicans are closer to Wilson Democrats than they are to Nixon Republicans.
In a society where women "cannot" do those things, women do not "have to" to them and also they don't happen. • Marriage was never suppose to allow for divorce, only annulment. • The "right" to work has now turned us all into wage slaves and now everybody gets paid less because more people "can" work • Society is just better when half of us stay home, build communities, and raise children Now we are all alone, poor, and fearful that our love might backfire and end up in court...
additionally several things on this list (driver’s license, women as property) were brought into play by states not the federal government. the changes you’re talking about were due to economic changes (such as women in the workforce) and social changes and were none of them were a single piece of legislation tied to a political party.
Thank you. I'm looking at liberalism as ideology not really party specific passed legislation. Bipartisan would mean then it was likely liberals and middle of the road conservatives then right? Because this ideas would not fall into the conservative ideology back in their time. Personally I am not for one party or the other I am in favor of having more than 2 parties involved in politics because there are way more ideas out there than 2 “sides” can represent. Thank you for your reply!
bipartisan meaning both the republican and democrat parties. the picture you posted starts with “hey MAGA women” implying that the Republican party was against the items on the list, which is very much not the case. there is fiscal conservatism and there is social conservatism, and i’m assuming you are talking about social conservatism here (traditional family values, etc), to which yes, some of the things on the list were seen by some as a threat to
modern American liberalism has evolved pretty far and it no longer sticks to just economics and the concept of individual rights and equality. it also pushes for government intervention in many things when before that was not part of it. i do also agree that the 2 party system sucks. most people end up voting for whichever side seems less crazy to them, ie. the lesser of the two evils
surgery is fake news and done in less than a dozen cases in which those teenagers were literally in danger of killing themselves because of their dysphoria. and letting children get necessary healthcare to avoid lifelong depression and potential suicide isn’t comparable to literal cosmetic surgeries. regret rates for GAC is also multiple times less than regret rates for knee surgery. kids shouldn’t get knee surgery by your logic 🫶
again, “irreversible genital surgeries” for minors are only done in cases where the only other option is letting someone irreversibly off themself in a body they hate. also, there are studies on suicide rates for people with surgery vs those without, which I doubt you’ve looked at, either. survivorship bias claim with evidence to the contrary.
correlation not causation. trans people who get those surgeries often have a higher level of dysphoria, which is the cause of suicide in this case. the surgeries alleviate the physical but don’t change how society treats them. being told that they’re “mutilating” themselves contributed to that 👍
crazy how you’re now walking back on your previous comment and blaming society for their suicides instead. and the very fact that i have to argue with the left that a CHILD should NEVER be having any sort of gender-affirming surgery or being put on hormone disrupters and puberty blockers is insane. i hope you never have children.
I hope you never have children because you value parts of their body over their actual lives. and where’s the walking back? dysphoria is aggravated by discrimination lmao. and you’re not “arguing with the left,” you’re arguing with me. someone who has talked with trans minors and have heard their pain. have you ever talked with a trans person?
30% of trans youths attempted last year, and it would be much less if they could access the care they needed. you argue against largely reversible puberty blockers when children suffer an irreversible death. you argue against non-genital surgeries when the alternative is an irreversible death. you argue against necessary medical care when the alternative is an irreversible death. don’t tell me you care about children when trans children die because you refuse to let them receive lifesaving care
republicans also were the ones who fought for abolition. why? because they were on the left, and democrats were on the right. being a republican now is vastly different than being a republican when they were left on the spectrum. the party ideologies flipped some time during the early 1900s.
if you cannot see the clear survivorship bias problem here and the massive problem with riddling kids with drugs and surgeries then i don’t know what to tell you. and yes, i have trans friends. i work in tech. there’s a lot of them. most of them have common sense and agree with me about not ruining the lives of children. i’ll stop here.
ruining the lives of children by getting them necessary care so they don’t fucking kill themselves. ruining their lives by drastically increasing their mental health and lowering suicide rates. survivorship bias doesn’t exist when you look at the ones who didn’t survive. and using dead trans people to justify killing more trans people? you make me sick.
also I found the study you quoted. that’s not a study of trans people w/ GA surgery vs trans people w/o GA surgery. that’s a study of cis people vs trans people. no fucking shit we have higher suicide rates, we’re constantly discriminated against by people like you. all your statistic shows is how awful our society is towards trans people. shame on you for blatant misrepresentation of facts to justify your shitty viewpoint. your study just shows the necessity of treating dysphoria through GAC.
