This US soccer equal pay battle is getting ridiculous
LumRaiderFan replied to bullets13's topic in Political Forum
I think that's the reason lots of older folks (myself included) in the US don't enjoy watching soccer, we never played it. Soccer wasn't played in school when I was there and my kids played some soccer but mostly other sports. I can definitely appreciate the athleticism required to move a ball down the field and score with no hands, lol. -
[Hidden Content] Outstanding!

No doubt there's always a bad side to everything. This is an enormous load on parent(s) if done right. That's why I said I probably would not have made the cut for this, not a whole lot of parents would.

[Hidden Content] More pushback...from the article: A Virginia mom who endured Mao Zedong’s Cultural Revolution before immigrating to the U.S. ripped a Virginia school board at a public meeting Tuesday over its stubborn support of the controversial critical race theory. "I’ve been very alarmed by what’s going on in our schools," Xi Van Fleet told the Loudoun County School Board members. "You are now teaching, training our children to be social justice warriors and to loathe our country and our history." She likened CRT, which critics deride as a form of "neo-racism," to China’s Cultural Revolution, a Mao-led purge that left between 500,000 and 20 million people dead from 1966 to 1976. The estimates vary greatly and many details have been shrouded in secrecy for decades.

Agree 100%, I have been around quite a few home schooled kids and most seem to be confident and well rounded. The ones that have entered the public or private school systems are many times more advanced than their peers. I think it's great, but it takes special parents to pull it off, not sure I would make that cut, lol.

Here’s one more [Hidden Content] From the article: On his first day in the White House, President Joe Biden revoked the permit his predecessor granted to Keystone XL, and also moved to re-enter the United States in the Paris climate agreement. TC Energy warned at the time that the decision by Biden would "directly lead to the layoff of thousands of union workers."

I have no problem with anyone doing what they can (legally) to pay as little tax to the gov as possible. Giving it to the gov is the worst place it can wind up anyway. Flat tax would fix all this, but it will never happen. -
[Hidden Content] Folks aren't having it...can't blame them.

You two agreeing on something...imagine that.

[Hidden Content] This is bad stuff! From the article: An English teacher has resigned from a top New Jersey prep school that is using critical race theory to create a "hostile culture of conformity and fear" — causing white and male students to believe they are "oppressors," she said. Dana Stangel-Plowe accused the Dwight-Englewood School in Bergen County of forcing students and faculty to embrace a single set of beliefs, choking off free-speech in the process. "The school’s ideology requires students to see themselves not as individuals, but as representatives of a group, forcing them to adopt the status of privilege or victimhood," Stangel-Plowe wrote in her letter to school brass. "As a result, students arrive in my classroom accepting this theory as fact: People born with less melanin in their skin are oppressors, and people born with more melanin in their skin are oppressed. Men are oppressors, women are oppressed, and so on," she continued. "This is the dominant and divisive ideology that is guiding our adolescent students."

Seriously? The Green New Deal they’re proposing, blocking ANWAR exploration, the permits pulled on government property for production. How did we go from energy independent to where we are now in such a short period? Do not blame Covid, there are policies in place that caused this.

A little more cordial, lol. Go back and read your posts on this very thread. You really have no idea means exactly that, you have no idea, neither do I, so let's not make any decision about something we haven't figured out yet. Hard to actually get what your opinion is from your posts on the issue but here is mine, the earth has been cooling and warming way before man had any influence and I haven't seen enough evidence to show that we're having an impact that would cause us to make major policy changes, which is what the global warming argument is all about.

Agree 100%, I have never disagreed with that point.

I would take Trump back in a diaper any day. I would be very surprised if biden doesn't wear pull-ups...the VP wears pull-downs.

The term main stream media has been used for decades, it's sad that you never really figured out what it means, little man. Too late now, all know that your are as dumb as you are annoying. By the way, I'm not big on acronyms, what does DA mean, spell it out for us all.
-
mainstream : having, reflecting, or being compatible with the prevailing attitudes and values of a society or group The vast majority of the media outlets are biased to the left while Fox is right, which is what makes them #1. Main stream media means you have a prevailing attitude with other media outlets (which Fox does not). Has nothing to do with the viewership. It is so easy to make you look even dumber than you are, you're my best helper with that.

Do you know what main stream even means?

Sick folks in this world.

Wonder why she didn’t stay in Somalia if it’s so bad here?
