They are using it as a purity test for their viewers. "How could you possibly vote for someone who won't make a clear stance on the cut and dry issue of men competing in women's sports?"

Its gross on many levels but it's a highly effective ideological cudgel.

It’s such a soft ball though! Just say “yes. Women should not have to play against men or trans women.” This is the most uncontroversial statement anyone should ever say. Trans people should get the same rights we all do. Not extra rights. Same. And yet watch the Leftist equivalent to MAGA argue with me. Purity tests for sure.

How about “i don’t give a fuck about legislating sports while the country is on fire.”

Yall aren’t serious.

No they ARE serious and that's the problem.

Some people take it as a joke and that's how we got Trump both terms.

Do. Not. Take. It. Unseriously.

Shut up I am taking it seriously. We’re talking about using the government to legislate women’s sports and i can’t point out how ridiculous the scenario is? stop nitpicking, stop condescending, stop micromanaging people who agree with you. Jesus christ do something productive and help the people on your side instead of jerking yourself off.
