    Two genders, but sex is a social construct. What's masculine and feminine and how we (societies or individuals) respond to it is a made up thing that can change.

    None of the above.
    But I'll take the US government in the 18th early 19th century as a start, if you're going to force me to have a government :D

    As a native born/ half Limey, it's great to see the Winston C. bronze back in the White House, where it belongs. It probably doesn't mean much to many, but symbolically, it is righting an unjustified, self absorbed wrong.
    Initially, when the Kenyan sent it back to dignify his father's memory, it started my dislike for the conceited, insulting demeanor of Barack Hussein Obama for basically 8 years.
    It seemed like that he revelled in snubs toward proven allies like GB and Isreal.
    Btw, this PM May looks like she knows what's going on...

    OR follow what's going on and go to your district rep or senator's office to tell them how you would like them to vote on upcoming issues. For example, Trump just signed an executive order to build the wall, but he needs Congress approval to get the funding to do so. So if you don't like the wall, it can still be stopped.

    Strange how activism is called whining. But actual whining (i.e. what Donald Trump's reaction to election fraud, crowd size, and media treatment) is called a smart political tactic to distract people from the real issues.

    But yeah, we could do it your way and just get over it.

    If it's constructive then yes, I agree, but if it's about shit like how offended everyone is by "The color of grass" then no, it's too much. Keep in mind however what you're suggesting will require people to shut their computers off and leave their basements and we all know there's not much chance of that happening LOL

    Whelp. Dodgers Digest decided to chime in on the latest executive order. Just can't escape all this BS. Can't take refuge in entertainment or sports. Just wanted to see if they updated their prospect rankings. Instead, preached at. With the WBC coming up, they saw a perfect opportunity to get their 2 cents in :suicide:

    @THINKBLUE You have family from Mexico and @LAdiablo you have had businesses outside the US, how do you feel about Trump's use of executive order for immigration?

    For those right-leaning (or not swept up in the liberal agenda) what reasoning is there for Trump leaving certain countries off the Middle East ban? Specifically, the countries where all of the 9-11 attackers were from?

    Also, is there any validity to the idea that there are already high vetting for immigrants from these countries and the ban was solving an imaginary problem?

    I disagree with the ban, but the reasoning seems fairly transparent: The 7 countries banned, are those that are currently war-torn, failed states. Or more plainly, the countries that Obama has been bombing for the last 8 years. The idea is that since the US is/has been bombing them, there will be blowback and there shouldn't be immigration from these countries right now.

    The question I have is this: tell me how you feel about the immigrant ban, but also tell me if you're supportive of the previous administration's bombing of these countries--killing thousands, many of them innocent children for the last 8 years.

    BTW...I disagree with the immigration ban, and don't approve of the military action and drone strikes.
