The share of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents who believe that President Joe Biden’s 2020 election win was not legitimate has ticked back up, according to a new CNN poll fielded throughout July. All told, 69% of Republicans and Republican-leaners say Biden’s win was not legitimate, up from 63% earlier this year and through last fall, even as there is no evidence of election fraud that would have altered the outcome of the contest.

Lol, you can legally be fired for being gay in KY, TX, NC, TN, GA and so on

I was actually unaware of is, what law allows this?

You can’t be fired for being Asian

Oh you're just talking about 'protected classes'?

That’s a right you have that I don’t.

Can I get fired for being straight?

Yes, kids can be taken from queer and queer supporting families. FL passed a law this year allowing the state to take trans kids away from their parents if they receive the proper

If parents are mutilating kids bodies, I don't understand how the parents should be able to keep their kids.

You are arguing in bad faith.

No I'm not, just because you have to make up answers doesn't mean it's in bad faith.

If your gf was involved in any community work she would have informed you about this.

She's very involved with the community, we went to my first pow wow and it was 2s themed this summer!

So I am to assume you don’t have a gf or she’s she’s calling herself queer after kissing one girl in hs. Your appeal to authority is irrelevant.

Oh, so we can just deny people their sexual identity now? You're not queer.

So, I've concluded you're just ignorant about queer issues.

What law allows people to be fired for being gay? The absence of laws prohibiting that. You're not very good at research. You could have just googled that. I assume you didn't look into it yourself because it challenges your world view.

Yes, race is a protected class. Sexual orientation is not.

Clearly you don't understand what transitioning means. In the US the AMA, APA, and AAP all support medical transitioning for adolescents. That does not include surgery. Again, this is an easy Google search you don't want to do because it will challenge your world view.

Going to a pow wow is going to a pow wow. If you gf is 2s, that's cool. I doubt it, because she would be aware of many of the issues I've brought up.
