I think I just 'twigged' what they are referring to when they screech about 'trans genocide'. It's when someone 'misgenders' them by using the 'wrong pronouns'. That is apparently 'genociding' (grammar isn't their strong point) these bullying, entitled fuckwits. When you 'misgender' someone you are LITERALLY (a word they love) murdering them. A 'hate crime' of the highest order. JFC. Couldn't they come up with something pettier? Was that the best they could do? Call me selfish, but I really have better things to think about than try to work out what 'pronoun' some blue-haired, attention-seeking bastardiser of the Enslish language demands as their entitlement that I refer to them as. These people must have truly wonderful lives if that's the only thing they can find to whine about.

This is what happens when narcissists are constantly told that they are 'special' and 'vulnerable' and that their 'feelings' are more important than everyone else's. Never mind that women are now belittled with the nasty, misogynistic 'karen' every time they stand up for themselves or have an opinion. Notice how it's the first insult that comes to this MAN'S mind.
Apparently this woman 'misgendered' this entitled bully as well as a 'non binary' (you can often identify them by their 'radical and brave' blue hair which evidently deletes their biology) worker.

And no, wokies are not 'nice people' Gary.

It's only asking for trouble to tell humans that they are 'special' and are entitled to have their every whim catered to by the entire population--with govt. backing. It's never going to end. It can only get worse. Once someone gets a taste of that kind of power they aren't going to give it up easily.

Think about how much the world hates America, and what it would take to unite so many diverse cultures. America has been the most warlike country in the world since 1955, and world domination by any means necessary has been its program. Right now, it has put the whole world in jeopardy in its quest for world domination. America has made the same mistake as Hitler, when he believed that all that was necessary to conquer Russia was to kick its door down. Russia crushed the Nazi monster war machine, and if necessary, it will crush the American monster war machine.
If that's what you want to believe, good luck. No thanks. Go to the house next door, they might buy what you have to sell.
It's the land of the brave and the home of the free for you is it, that is so fucking naive I am embarrassed for you. The statement about America being the most war like country in the world since 1955, is a direct quote of president Jimmy Carter.
Sorry, I can't jump on board, "Russia will crush the American monster war machine". I'm more inclined to hope that the issue can be resolved diplomatically and peacefully.

Maybe a separate private restroom labeled "Universal" could be created to accommodate anyone who doesn't want to do their business in the restroom assigned to them. That makes the most sense to me.
How would that work?

If you don't let a man who identifies as a woman into the Women's Restroom, then you are discriminating against trans. You're not recognizing their identity. You're committing trans genocide.
It's too late now anyway. The cancer is terminal. There used to be a social contract called 'common decency' that kept men out of women's spaces. That has now gone, no matter what the law says. No one is going to be checking people's genitals before they enter women's changing rooms and toilets, and no woman is going to risk being charged with a 'hate crime' to objecting to a man being in a women's toilet. The whole thing is a diabolical mess.

And America is known for doing that, which is why it has China surrounded by 'peaceful' military bases.
That thing you've started doing at the end of your comments is pretty annoying. It must take ages to type.

Well, seeing my own country and the society that I live in "crushed" is not something I feel able to be very enthusiastic about. Should I be?

It's a mess but I don't think 'doing nothing' is an option that will work.

Some women aren't 'doing nothing' but they get very little support. The few men who support them are generally gay men, with a handful of notable prominent exceptions.

I've stated it before, I think the US should just back out and let Russia have Ukraine and China have Taiwan, for no other reason than I'd rather see that than the obliteration of human civilization. However, Putin seems to be the one brazenly rattling the nuclear saber, threatening constantly how he's at the "highest" nuclear alert level or whatever. And then once China appropriates Taiwan, it's going to be a whole new ballgame. China doesn't seem to be shy about expanding its own borders into the South China Sea. If the US crumbles, then most of us who live outside of Asia may live in "interesting times" as the Chinese curse goes.

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Sorry about the emoji at the end but they don't have an emoticon expressing that one is not sure about something here. So I found one on the Internet and copy and paste it to the bottom of some of my replies. If it annoys you and if me "backing down" and taking it off would also "annoy" you, then I'm not sure what options are left for me.

You still don't get it, America doesn't want peace; it's feeding time for the industrial military complex, but like in Vietnam, they've underestimated their chosen enemies. When one threatens people decade in and decade out, they are going to be ready for you when the time comes.

USA is repeating its mistakes of the past.

Provoking Russia through NATO seems like a major blunder given how the Ukraine war is failing for the Globalists:

I'm not a nationalist, but I am patriotic to whatever extent. It's not in my interest to see my own society "crushed" at the hands of people who are no more politically beneficent than our leaders have been. We didn't "crush" Putin, or Jinping. They've been in power for a while now. If it's their desire to completely turn the tables on us and "crush" us then I can't get behind it.

Where is your evidence that they want to 'crush' you?

All the talk of BRICS sounds like they're trying to turn the tables. Popeye used the word "crushed". I don't know what the Russian and Chinese leadership are up to. Right now there are projections floating around in the News that some believe Jinping is planning on invading Taiwan in 2025 or something like that because of the coincidence of a couple of factors, including the Taiwan election. There is talk that if China incorporates Taiwan, it could end up as the most powerful country in the world. Not sure how true it is that China is trying to establish global dominance but it seems to be the concern of our media. It's difficult to sort out what is true from what is propaganda.

America has been the only superpower for quite some time, and a brutal master at that. After the transition, America will no longer be all-powerful and perhaps, she might even develop some virtues that would enable her to join in the world community. Right now, in her arrogance she has put the whole world in jeopardy, she has to lose that arrogance to the benefit of the world. America lately accused China of aiding Russia, to which China stated, we have not aided Russia and will not, but, if you attack Russian, God won't help you. The world has put America in check, and just perhaps checkmate. Time for her to behave intelligently, humanly, and sanely, so, the world understands what she is, and is now acting accordingly.
