Not sure anyone will see this but...

No, things have always been this way. And for most groups, we have been accumulating more rights in the past few years, not losing them. It’s just a select few who think that because people are demanding rights that the US has gone “downhill.”

Meh...have you heard what gets played on the radio nowadays? The music we grew up with was a little better; I don’t blame them for liking it more.

The cool thing about Dolly is that she owns up to her “carefully crafted image” and has a sense of humor about it.

I believe her other child was having a tantrum at the same time.

I agree... she felt her job back then was to get people to see that animals are sentient beings and not just animated objects, an idea not accepted in science at the time, which she accomplished and is great.

Not to mention that people who work in service jobs literally can’t work from home, and we are the people who need paid leave most.

Erm....free trade policies are keeping poor people in poor countries from rising above poverty and investing in their own economies; I wouldn’t say they are helping. Foreign companies coming in to pay poverty wages to workers in their factories and fields in often dangerous conditions only to pack up and leave when…

The writer of this piece wasn’t seriously advocating staying home and lying about why.

I wonder how exactly they would go about enforcing this if a trans girl went into the women’s room or vice versa...who’s gonna check their “biological sex?” So fucked up.

Is there a particular article this one is mocking? I didn’t understand any of it.
