The Marjorie Taylor Greene thread.

[Distracted1]

For someone who is putting so much effort into defending Greene's position, you seem remarkably ignorant of that position. She's done more than just put up a sign that gets the science wrong.

The only discussion I have partaken in thus far regarding Ms. Greene is the incident linked to regarding the trolling of her by another Rep., and the resultant hyperbole and bias it entailed.

 

[Distracted1]

Is there a reason you are not being honest about what the sign said?

It also said "trust the science". The horror!

 

[Hevneren]

It's completely refuted by actual facts. There aren't even strictly two sexes in humans.

I'm afraid you'll need to provide some evidence for this.

It's just odd that you felt the need to lie. Weird.

"Weird" is a grown person (of which I am assuming you are)who doesn't know what a "lie" is.

And yet you are ignorant of Ms. Greene's actions in this incident. Of course you must be ignorant, because there is no way you would be disingenuously pretending her actions prior to the hanging of the trans flag^* were not part of the incident.





^*(remember, this means a flag representing support for transgender people and their rights, not a flag that has a gender. I know this was difficult for you before)

Was one of her actions prior to the incident calling out and trolling her office mate?

Would you mind telling me why you need evidence? Can you take an educated guess as to what I'm talking about please.

Why don't you look it up? There's no shortage of reporting on her anti-trans statements and actions going back at least 2 year's.

Its not limited to that, and it not the first time she has made vile comments about LGBTQ people

When you make a point of publicly attacking transgender people when you KNOW that an opponent is transgender, or that they have transgender family, you ARE trolling that person whether you think you are or not.

What is not the first time?
What "vile comment" about LGBTQ people has she made?

The post I joined this thread responding to claimed that the "there are two genders....respect the science" sign she put up in response to trolling from her office-mate was "the worst thing she has ever done", that doesn't indicate much of a history of "vileness".

ETAmend: the post did not claim it was the "worst" thing she had done. It claimed it was the "most disgusting"

All of this stupidity as one example.

Conspiracy theorist and member of Congress Marjorie Taylor Green (R-GA) has called landmark LGBTQ rights legislation the Equality Act “evil” and “a direct attack on God’s creation.”

Earlier this week, the anti-LGBTQ far-right Republican took to Twitter to declare that the Equality Act was an attack on women’s rights and the rights of religious individuals.

“The so-called #EqualityAct is evil,” Taylor Greene tweeted. “Disguised as #LGBT rights, it expands governmental regulatory reach that destroys women’s rights, religious rights, and rights of the unborn. It is a direct attack on God’s creation, He created us male and female.”

Citing a transphobic column in the New York Post by the president of the conservative Ethics and Public Policy Center, Greene claimed that protecting transgender people against discrimination would mean women “no longer have the right to privacy in their bathrooms, locker rooms, playing fields, and even TSA pat downs if a male TSA agent ‘identifies’ as a woman.”

She added: “Men who dress and think they are women will have rights over all real girls and women.”

Greene also claimed that doctors who perform mastectomies “in the case of breast cancer” would also have to “perform one on the teenage girl identifying as a boy. All in the name of equality.”

Perhaps unsurprisingly, Greene said, in block capitals no less, that she would “BE VOTING NO TO THE DISGUSTING, IMMORAL, AND EVIL #EqualityAct!!!”

“It has nothing to do with stopping discrimination against the LGBT community, that could be done easily without this,” she concluded. “It has everything to do with attacking God & believers.”

Greene is no stranger to anti-LGBTQ sentiment. She has previously protested a Drag Queen Story Time event in Georgia and claimed it was “brainwashing” children, liked the anti-LGBTQ group MassResistance on Facebook, and wrote on her social media, “Trans does not mean gender change, it just means a gender refusal and gender pretending! Truth is truth, it is not a choice!!!”

 

[Steve]

By "her position" are you asking about the sign she put up which read simply "There are two genders, Male and Female" ?

You don't find that a supportable position?

Your refusal to answer my questions is all the answer I need. It is more than a little odd that you are so are so ashamed of your agreement with Greene's bigotry that you cannot admit it.

You have misquoted the sign, But no, I do not find that a supportable position. It is totally and intentionally wrong, and completely ignorant of the facts.

Your question?
What question?
The one where you asked if I found "her positions" supportable without spelling out which position you were asking about?

Which of those qualifies as a "vile" comment about an LGBTQ person?

MTG is neither a psychologist nor a gender researcher; she is a cement-headed bigot who is attempting to legislate her bigotry against the LGBTQ community.

Sorry that you have so much difficulty following a simple discussion. As I said, your refusal to answer my questions is all the answer I need. Your support of Greene's bigotry is not in doubt.

Greene tweeted about the Equality Act

“It has nothing to do with stopping discrimination against the LGBT community, that could be done easily without this,” she concluded. “It has everything to do with attacking God & believers.”

Discrimination against LGBT people could be ended "easily?" Okay I'll ask: How? And I hope the answer isn't, discrimination against LGBT people could be ended easily if they'd just stop being LGBT.

As for Marj, she shore is a red-blooded American gal!

Marj gropes trump cutout at rally

My ex-boss was right. You can't make this stuff up!

What anti trans legislation has she proposed?

Opposition to legislation promoting LBGTQ rights by a bigot amounts to the same thing. Voting no to a bill is still legislating, doancha know.

Especially from this bigoted hypocrite who pisses and moans
