    Remind me again, please....

    Many years ago, athletics were separated into men's and women's athletic leagues and competitions. Why were they separated?

    Why is this issue spammed on your social media news feeds rather than more pressing issues like price fixing cartels for basic services like rent pricing?

    Why is this junk food culture wars bs the center of your political discourse?

    It's as if very wealthy people would rather you get pissed off at junk food politics than actual things that **** over millions of people.

    While I agree with this decision, I don't agree with all of the people finding it funny or comparing transgendered women to fictional characters.

    I am sure it is very difficult to be transgendered, and they are people like everyone else and deserve empathy and basic respect.

    Having an opinion that transgender people need their own division or stat in their birth gender division in itself isn't bigotry.


    Spamming the issue as the most important topic of the day is bigotry. Someone of those comments literally are saying "it's the best news they heard in 2023". If that ist the best thing someone's heard in 2023 they are not only a bigot they are a fool not realizing they have been duped by wealthy capitalists to think these are the real important issues of the day rather than our climate or our unstable economic systems.

    Womens discrimination being put to a halt by the world athletic organization. Now maybe we can stop disparaging and derogatory terms like “person with a uterus , person that mestruates” by the left
