    … Are they mentally deficient there at the NY post?

    Do they really believe any LGBT would believe such a dumb and low effort headline?

      Do they really believe any LGBT would believe such a dumb and low effort headline? LGBT people are just as susceptible as anyone else to believe dumb shit, possibly even more so sense Liberal ID Pol is crafted for them specifically.

    If the existence of gay people made conservatives embrace premarital sex; and the existence of trans people makes conservatives embrace homosexuality… what do we push to make conservatives embrace trans people… 🤔 Let’s make them yearn for the day where the front-line of progress was HRT, “pronouns”, and sex-reassignment surgery.

        I think the right is going to push for these things while the left watches in disgust. If the target consumers are incels, it may get molded to promote misogyny.

          Perhaps this will be another split of the rightwing. I don’t think AI sexbots sit cleanly on the political spectrum. I’ve seen support for AI romance chatbots with single women, AI bros, young teens, lonely men, misogynists… certainly other demographics I haven’t seen.

          The traditionalist Heritage Foundation/Evangelicals may denounce it, but sexual liberalism is always denounced far more than it is actually disliked. Most of the “trad life” men just want a passive manipulable young wife, and AI sexbots are the closest they’re gonna get to that. Also big tech has big money. Banning AI sexbots would be just about the worst thing you could add to your platform.

      Abolishing monogamy as a cultural standard? Maybe…

      But are they really embracing those? Or are they just virtue signaling while still being homophobic under their masks?

        Jesus Christ, that’s bad. It must have been designed in a lab to achieve the perfect stoichiometric mix of “as a gay man”, transphobia and islamophobia.

        Oh, thanks. To respond to the article, the difference between gender affirming care and forced transition is consent. For an example of the former, look at all the trans kids that commit suicide because of lack of care. For an example of the latter, look at Alan Turing who committed suicide because he was forces to transition against his consent.

    It’s like an AI filled in a mad lib

    “[Person we don’t like] [thing we don’t like] [plan we don’t like] just like [country we don’t like].”
