Trans folks”?

FYI “folks” is a commie dog whistle.

They are “people”.

Bad take bro.
"Folks" or "folk" has been commonly used in the south and Midwest for long, long, loooooong before it was being used for chatroom neutrality.

There's a hill.

People are dying on it.

Bill sees people dying.

He's trying to tell them to stop going on top of that hill.

They are not listening.

Of course.

The left's tactic on this has never changed:

First Step—Deny any grooming is happening and throw out the, "The religious right used to say this about gay teachers."

Second Step—Maybe admit that there are "some isolated cases" of grooming, maybe not...depends on whether they get away with pivoting or not.

If the former, admit, but qualify with, "But these cases are EXTREMELY rare and not the norm."

Step Three—Repeat the debunked notion that "gender affirming care" saves lives, and use the abortion playbook, which is, "It should be a decision between the doctor and the child/parents."

If someone points out that doctors are actively and deliberately manipulating parents, circle back to Step One and repeat the Denial Sequence applied to doctors/parents this time.

It's been the same formula for years now.

The most infuriating talking point is "gender affirming care saves lives." Really? How? And how many?
IMO, this is the main thing that needs to be addressed. There are many well-meaning people (not saying he is one of them) that have been so battered by propaganda, that they truly do believe this.

Maher actually wasn't fully on point himself. He could have been much more articulate. But the fact is: the science NEVER supported the trans suicide thesis. The science is very clear on the impact of chemical and surgical interventions in minors as pertaining to future reproductive capacity and adult sexual health.

The truth has been so buried that well-meaning people simply believe the opposite of the truth.

That's a grown man sitting Indian-style on a couch.

He bears not one single iota of my respect or my time or my thought.

Bill has risen up my list with Cenk.
Cenk still has a ways to go but he’s changed.

Bill just makes a lot of sense now. I actually like listening to him.

“Yes I was assigned my sex at birth by my dick”

- Bill Maher

One of the great lines to remember.

Bill Maher is in a real predicament. He realizes that the Democrats have lost their damn minds and he doesn't agree with almost anything they say or do anymore, but he has taken such a hard stance on Trump and Republicans over the years that he can't change sides. His whole career and show would be over if he did.

Ok

Just keep what I’m saying in mind next time you listen to some leftist filth get misty eyed about all their disenfranchised comrades.

I erased it from my lexicon.

There were a couple of points he made like that, then Bill would disagree with him, so then he would crawfish back from it.

Dumbass: "No one is advocating for parents not to be notified"

Maher: "Yes, they are and there are a lot of them."

Dumbass: "Okay, there are but..."

They've twisted language around in their political correctness. They've been doing it since the last 80's.
And yes, it's a tell, on their leanings.
You're making a completely valid point.
I'm simply countering that some people have talked that way their entire lives, or it's a local way of talking. To be careful of not misunderstanding that.
