Certain outsiders aside, Democrats are really good about getting their shit together behind closed doors.
I don’t believe that many voters like closed door conspiring

I don’t feel I could change the foods I like on a whim, that doesn’t mean there’s a biological component(for some dislikes there is though) to it. My boyfriend is gay and he admits he has no clue if he was born with it or not.
Within the scope of the law, things that are perceived to be choices within one’s control are more likely to be regulated. It’s harder to justify regulating those components of ourselves that we inherit.
I know this isn’t what you’re doing, but I feel some people use this as a justification to push something they know is unproven.
I appreciate the point you’re making, but I’m not entirely sure that on average slight differences indicates much of a biological component. Ie. trans or gay people having slight biochemical differences on average says nothing about any individual trans or gay person. Furthermore, there is very miniscule average difference between cis-AFAB and cis-AMAB brains so much so that I bet it would be impossible to find a sex difference between them for many.
There might be a biological component to sexuality or gender identity, there might not be- it doesn’t really matter. It should be enough to say, I don’t like how I look, I want surgery to correct that.
Yep! There’s a lot of things that make it entirely possible it was an accident. I also want to clarify, I’m not discounting how abusive the government was to him- just saying we really don’t know for sure what happened
You are pointlessly splitting hairs simply to be the smartest guy in the room.
No it’s not, it’s saying that Nazi doesn’t just mean “bad”. There are a lot of ideologies I disagree with, that aren’t Nazis
His mom believed it was an accident, I have no clue just want to clarify it’s not settled

They wave nazi flags, they goosestep like Nazis, they believe in fascism like nazis.
Of course there are still people who believe in Nazi ideology, but if they believe this: “American Nazies want more slaves. Minorities need to have more babies… as long as they stay poor and uneducated.” then they very likely aren’t that
Not sure why you’re defending the honor of Nazis (or maybe you’re defending non-nazi white supremacists
Saying a term is inaccurate isn’t defending them, you know that, and to suggest it is disingenuous.
Eg. I don’t like pedophiles or serial killers, but calling a one the other is simply inaccurate.
The quoted portion, from my perspective added nothing, but I might of misinterpreted it, so please explain
Racists, neo-nazis, white nationalists, it depends what they are. Nazi ideology was not just racism, it was inherently tied to a form of economic corporatism.
… Yes for average Americans, yes. Again, I’m talking about FDR and other political leaders

to quote an old reddit comment:
There is no doubt that the US was going to enter the war before Pearl Harbor. Not only was American aid to the Allies massive (and increasing month by month), but the U.S. was already effectively at war with Germany - by mid-1941 American ships were escorting British convoys with orders to shoot German ships/aircraft on sight. There’s a reason Hitler declared war on the US when he had no obligation to. Germany and the US were already in direct conflict.
More to the point, collaborative war planning had been going on long before Pearl Harbor. [The ABC-1](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/U.S.–British_Staff_Conference_(ABC–1\)) Conference for example outlined the broad strokes of Allied strategy for the rest of the war.
There is no reasonable scenario where the US would not have entered the war.
Eh, FDR and other US politicians wanted to enter the war for various reasons, including the oppression of Jews, the attack on Pearl Harbor was a convenient spark for them. (Not saying they plotted it or anything, just they desired to join the war before that, and it gave them a reason to convince the more (largely) pacifism minded public
which likely contributed to his suicide.
remember, it is still unknown if it was actually a suicide at all
Don’t say Nazism when you mean: racism, authoritarianism, totalitarianism, discrimination, etc. They are often overlapping, and components of each other, but not the same thing
If someone was accused of sexism would you say “heard he kisses women”. Like this whole thing of joking about homophobic people being gay, at what point is it a little homophobic itself. Like all the cartoons depicting Trump as doing “stuff” with Putin
Rules don’t exist if they’re only enforced on those we disagree with.
Yeah I agree there’s no time for primaries, I was just responding to that isolated statement- not saying its never useful.
