Asserting that homosexuals are insane IS very much bigotry. Transgenderism is still more controversial.

Oh, I see. Your pet issues matter. Everyone else: f u ck them.

How can you even say that? Can you seriously not see the hypocrisy in your claim? It's like saying "racist against black people ...

The real issue here is that since so much of apple's components, all computer components are made overseas, how much does US patent law really apply or matter....

How much does our "worry" about worker conditions even matter. China knows there is a serious limit to our power... it seems that many ...

Well, I don't really think your question makes sense as such. It's too ambiguous. "Should" something be done this way or that - what does that really entail? It depends on what exactly you're asking here. Should we force people to write in a certain way and ban any publications which offend us? No ...

I can't criticize your evidence because there's no direct link for me to understand how they got those numbers...

The sources are shown on the images themselves. It doesn't matter what sites those particular images are hosted on, you can check the sources themselves to find out how they got their ...

Give it a rest. not wanting to pay for someone else's sex change operation is hardly bigotry.



Asserting that trans-people are all mentally insane (which is exactly what jimbo implied) is bigotry.

Your sarcastic argument doesn't even make sense. Homeless Americans are needy and giving food to ...

Please explain how my comments a bigoted in any way.


Your transphobic assertions that trans-sexual people are not really the gender or sex they say they are, or that gender dysphoria is not a real thing, are bigotry . It's analoguous to claiming that all homosexuals are mentally insane.

Face it ...

So, should historical fiction be redrawn to fit the fantasies of an world idealized by a particular group, e.g. feminists?

Define feminists.

Here's data on market share:

iOS (Apple Inc.’s iPad) — 40 million units, 66.6 percent share in 2011; projected 73 million units, 61.4 percent share in 2012

I've read the above, and thank you for being clear; however, it seems that your 3rd paragraph is answering "yes" to the following first question and a "no" to the second one:

(2) Should ...

Can this thread be closed for bigotry and jimboston be given a ban according to the bigotry guidelines?

Oh, I almost forgot- this is CC where guys like NightStrike wield mod powers. Carry on then.


I am outraged because I am paying for it as a taxpayer in Massachusetts.

I am annoyed whenever I ...

Why wouldn't it be? It's unusual, sure, but the ruling was pretty explicit, and it's pretty much a standard procedure for the condition his doctors diagnosed him with.


It's a faux "condition". You're born a man... you're a man. Just because the fuckin' demons in your head tell you that you ...

(Reuters) - A federal judge has ordered Massachusetts officials to pay for a convicted murderer's sex change operation, ruling that the state had violated the inmate's constitutional rights in denying the procedure.

I've been sort of playing the devil's advocate here, so let me make my own opinions clear.

When it comes to fantasy stories, fiction etc. - no, the world does not need to be presented as an idealistic utopian place where there are no issues of prejudice in existence. However, a lot depends how ...

RE: viewership. If one is of the anti-apple persuasion, it won't matter if he/she is already going to buy a non-apple product. So the observation of "care" from views on whatever article does not reflect the attitudes of the relevant target markets for apple.

If one wishes to assert that since ...

Should historical fiction be redrawn to fit the fantasies of an world idealized by a particular group?
In other words, should historic accuracy be sacrificed for certain idealistic goals?

Oh, I'm sorry, I had no idea GoT had anything to do with history. When did it all happen, exactly?

Yeah, I ...

TGD, you're reverse-godwining here, ie. asserting that an analogy is invalid because it involves nazis

I'm going to vote for obama.

So if the congress doesn't care, why are there congresspeople who are trying to push a patent reform act?

Granted, it's not nearly enough to fix the patent system, but at least it shows that someone in the congress is aware of the issue.
