The week's question
In March 2025, in the thread "Re: OT, out", Umm asked the members: "Do you think it is because America is made up of magical soil that makes businesses based in America magically profitable?" This week it is put to everyone again. The button below opens the small thread re-asking it - read what others have said so far, then give your own answer as an ordinary reply.

It wasn't just the so-called enlightened "liberals calling people what they want to be called". It was "AND making it required for EVERYONE to call people what they want to be called" and "RE-EDUCATING the (evil) people who didn't want to do that on how Goodthink it was."

THAT'S what conservatives objected to.

Bullcrap. Every time I've responded to this by calling conservatives other than what they wanted to be called, they objected. None have ever responded with 'I don't want to require you to refer to me in any particular way, so that's fine.' Conservatives want rigid gender roles and people to be forced to conform to those gender roles.
