For far too long the left tried to take power away from the parents and into the hands of government, now they're saying they never wanted to take away parents rights?

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.

Oh well.

That other guy is being dishonest. His side does believe parents should be cut out.

This 10000%

He is a liberal, and will never change, but he is smart enough to know that Democrats will continue to lose to the Trumps of the world if they keep it up. Actually it will get worse.

Today’s youth are not going to take it either. I know people who go to liberal arts schools where trans is open for certain students and adult liberal teachers - they see it first hand (and note how fricked up the students are). They abhore having it forced down their throats.

I can also make the argument (and know examples from family) that many gay people don’t fall in line with Trans+ as well.

Both groups will vote against that lifestyle and the purple-haired teacher.

Maher is no different than the pedophile apologist that goes by the same name on this board.

He will continue to vote for this shite and mock anyone who doesn't.

Frick him to eternity and back.

If you're an adult and you want to debate be while sitting indian style like a 4th grader, you can GTFO, you have no credibility.

“Trans folks”?

FYI “folks” is a commie dog whistle.

They are “people”.

The most infuriating talking point is "gender affirming care saves lives." Really? How? And how many?

It's fricking batshit crazy. A kid that believes in Santa, the Easter Bunny, the Tooth Fairy, etc has NO possible understanding of the long term and permanent repercussions of taking puberty blockers or surgeries. A child that age may however demand that they want to eat ice cream every meal or else they will kill his or herself. So the left's logic on this is that you must give the child ice cream every meal because it "saves lives."

It’s lunacy. If there was an epidemic of people wanting an arm or a leg amputated because they identified as being physically disabled, these same idiots would be shouting from the rooftops about the need for more mental health treatment. The only reason they are so invested is because dicks, vaginas and tits are involved.

Yeah. That pissed me off quite a bit too.
Bill fired back with "Really? That's your analogy?"
So I kept watching.
He got this twink pretty good at the end.

That entire conversation frustrated the hell out of me.

Jon Lovett, the guy interviewing Maher, has frightening views that are very clearly mainstream thoughts in left-wing America. I cannot even wrap my brain around his arguments and defensive stance.

And Maher conceded way too many times.

Yeah, because cardiac bypass and having your junk cut off are totally the same thing.

Yes, they will lose. So many people sick of all this trans crap. And more growing when they find out it's been put in their kids heads. And even more when they find out their kids are on puberty blockers without their knowledge.

The LGBTQ are losing a lot of the gays. This is very true. Not to the same degree, but the lesbians as well.
Both of them feel bullied by the T, and some feel the movement is going to end up breeding them out.

The purple haired teacher. The one that makes parents flinch or cringe the first time they see them?
Yeah, nobody wants those in the classrooms, or anywhere near their kids.

Maher is a lefty fricktard. He will always denigrade the right.
But, he's trying to pull the left back to moderacy. And he flat out calls their shite to their face. Something a lot more of their side needs to get the balls to do.
That said... If he could get past his politics, he might be a little bit more tolerable for a lefty.
