I get it that a lot of people think being gay is still a learned behavior and isn't real. I present this evidence to the contrary

This is a common misinterpretation or mis-framing of the position.

To explain it properly, you need to understand that social development is a long process for all humans who are very malleable from birth and who nonetheless have certain predispositions for personality, physicality, and emotional traits.

There is no gay gene, or a particular combinations of genes that produce gayness.

Psycho-Social learning is a fundamental process that branches out in very definitive ways, stemming from VERY early in childhood and even prenatally.

Same sex attraction is an outcome that can be a result of many and various factors, as are all the various fetishes and preferences.

I understand that people have their preferences, but what about the use of liquid soap on a rag is more disgusting than bar soap on a rag?

That’s a pretty darn good example of “thinking outside the box!” :lol:

Some of you really are deranged.

Are we though?

How do you NOT see the Trump movement as a COUNTER-revolutionary force?

Is it deranged to question DEI ? Or Trans? Or Russia Collusion? Or Biden is mentally sharper than ever? Or Peach Mints? Or COVID policy? Or Pangolins? Or He could be my son? Or capital B in black? Or Hands Up Don’t Shoot? Or Satanists performing rituals on stage at the Grammy’s? Or USAID money for LGBT parades in Iran? Or Pride Flags and George Floyd murals in Afghanistan? Or Defund the police? Or open borders? Etc. Etc.?

Yeah, I’m not sure why they made him SUCH a selfish a-hole. It detracts

I have a theory that Trump is intentionally trying to shake up / tear down Kennedy Center Honors.

First of all, the Kennedy Center Honors is an instrument of marxist “praxis” at the highest level. It serves the purpose of global elites to shine their asses and the asses of the ones they choose to honor. It’s an example of the progressives practicing their religion and using it for manipulation and control.

Trump was part of that club, but always saw himself as the chaotic outsider who crashed the party. He’s Rodney Dangerfield at Bushwood Country Club.

He’s partly remaking it in his image but doing so by stripping it to the studs first.

He threw the Baby Ruth in the pool by honoring right wing entertainers and non-elites, ie. Kiss and Sly Stalone. He knows the elites will want to evacuate the pool and drain it first before sterilizing it (by removing Trump’s name, or moving it to a new venue, etc.)

If the whole thing folds, then so be it. It’s abandonment only hurts the leftist elites.

It didn’t happen because NATO, as an institution, does not know how to live without a frontier. It does not know how to justify itself without an adversary. It does not know how to maintain internal cohesion without a map that points east and says: there.

I agree with this part.

I’m highly skeptical that the USSR wanted to join NATO in 1954, except perhaps as a plot. It’s as if this writer never heard of Communism or saw how it operated in the world.

1954 was after Korea, before the Cultural Revolution in China, right when Khrushchev took over, less than 6 years after the end of the Berlin airlift, and the Iron Curtain was still being built.

And yet the San Ynez Reservoir is dry as they head into the Santa Ana winds time period.

And four dams were demolished by Newsome which removed needed reservoirs.

“Get ahead of it”, indeed. Let the Newsome fires commence!

maybe more Republicans should choose that as a career.

Maybe if universities actually hired the qualified Republican applicants and didn’t require “DEI Statements” as part of the application process.

Of course, the university administrators are now coy about it, but they still manage to get that diversity statement of beliefs.

quote:

---

Universities call required diversity statements by several names, most commonly Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Statements, but also Statements of Contributions to Diversity, Perspective Statements, or Life Experience Essays, especially after Supreme Court rulings changed how they're used in admissions, requiring focus on experiences rather than ideologies, with some institutions now using alternative "Service Statements".
