You can't comprehend it because you're educated, so you can't comprehend being uneducated.

Because who would make the tests and how can you trust them to make them fair?

That's a good question. I would think these people would qualify as terrorists.

Politics and hidden agendas, basically. Rich, powerful people get what they want through bribery and they force propaganda onto people, which usually sticks for those who don't have a good background (it feels better to blame things on other people and you'll end up hatin ghtme because you've been told to). Those who control such things always want more because they are mentally ill and there is profit in war, but not in looking after people. The rest of us look on and feel despair at this situation, but it's hard for us to make a difference.

I thoroughly agree with this. Just as we should keep state and religion separated (we have a conservative Christian polical party here that only let women put themselves up for election like five years ago).

That is a fantastic question. The answer is that people are assholes who can't seem to grasp acceptance.

Because they are so young and easily influenced.

Love pineapple on pizza. Love grilled Pineapple too!!!

I would say; sheer greed, superiority and the desire for power / control. The problem is that many of these people get so disconnected from reality that they have no idea how badly they're hurting others. Or they just don't care. Or worst- they enjoy it. Other people are no longer human beings with thoughts and feelings, they're just things to use and abuse. They love feeling like they're above the rest of us, and delight in keeping others under their thumb. No amount of money will ever be enough for these people. They simply hoard wealth, do everything possible to get more, and do everything in their power to avoid paying out their fair share for living in the society they're exploiting. I agree, it's unthinkable and it's taken me years to unwrap the mindset. It's scary.

Hate usually doesn't have a logical reason. It could be that they were themselves despised for being LGBTQ. It could be that they were influenced by others of the LGBTQ community who were hated on. People can be sheep and too few think for themselves. It doesn't make it right but that's life.

What does CIS mean?

Because many cis people have treated them like absolute s**t and they had too many bad experiences with them. I'm not saying how they feel is okay since you shouldn't hate anyone. But it's also understandable

I've never, ever met an LGBTQ+ person who hated Cis/Straight/Hetero anyone. I have, however, met many Cis/Straight/Hetero people who hated LGBTQ+ person. If you have met LBGTQ+ people who did, it is probably because they have been on the receiving end of the hate directed at their group.

It is always a mystery why people who are hated become so hareful. Yes, you have been mistreated but hating and geenralising others is definitely making it worse. For example as a migrant i get a lot of xenophobia. It is easy ti fall into hate but its just going to make me and others more unhappy and hateful.

I'm bi and I don't, also I don't know why people do. Hate is hate, hate begets hate, revenge is never justified, nor is generalisation. It's also hurting us, if what recent polls are saying is true.

they may have had bad experiences and simply have a distrust.. thats just a guess of mine.

I know literally no one who dislikes cis people or straight people. And yes, I am a part of lgbtq, but please take me seriously. I’m not following a bias here

Maybe because queer people have been persecuted by cis people throughout nearly all of human history?

It is. It underpins the Satanic Temple's current suit against Texas

Because in the US curriculum decisions are not made at a federal level but at the state and local level and religious people on school boards and religious advocacy parent groups prevent sex ed

THANK YOU. I understand the impulse too, but that doesn't make it okay. If you want to move forward with the (race) issue, quit gratuitously knocking anyone with non-brown skin. It does not make you edgy or woke, it makes you racist. Acknowledge that and evolve how you deal with this complex issue. Unless you WANT to lose people who originally would have stood with you!

It's not really something that's conscious or anything. It's something that's been there since birth. The physical reality of being female is not the same as the mental or emotional reality of being female; the former is obviously not something that people like myself can experience at a true 1:1 level. The latter two, however, are just biochemistry when you get right down to it. And we just happen to have a brain biochemistry that more closely matches females than males. Direct result: we relate to females far more easily than males in spite of our physical form.

Of course. The same way a person can identify as straight only to realize at a later date that they are indeed bi or gay or other.

Yes. For 20 seconds. And he has to wear a mask like a good boy.

Peer pressure to have the next best thing and being raised like that. Sometimes it takes the rug being pulled out from under you to wake up. I remember living in an 8 bedroom home with a three car garage. Everyone had their own snowmobile, we had a slide going on the second story wrap around porch. We were loaded. Fast forward 15 years and a huge change later and we are rolling quarters for a loaf of bread. Talk about a wakeup call. I value money for the fact that it puts food in my kids' bellies and a roof over their head but I don't value it so much that I won't pay the extra needed amount for a customer in front of me. I don't feel that I would have this mentality if that rug wasn't pulled out from under me.

Should be! Great point! They caused someone's death!

A straw has one hole, they're just like really tall bagel.

In most countries you play an active part in deciding who governs your country. If you think that your government doesn't do a good job, you might consider voting for a party that won't let you down so much.

It was drilled into their heads. Respect your elders and blood is thicker than water is something most people hear growing up.

I am adopted and will never understand the need and desire that a woman wants to have with her own bio kid. Adoption is great! I don't understand why people only want bio kids. (I am not trying to put anyone down, I am just speaking from my experience as an adopted person myself.)

Because side A has been watching and reading and hearing stories about how side B is ruining everything. It's clear that side B must be either corrected or defeated. They are the enemy. Once they're gone, everything will function properly. Never give up the fight, side A! We're so close, if not for that damn side B (who by the way is responsible for all the bad things that happen to you).

I think because statistically woman are still doing a disproportionately large amount of the domestic tasks, even when both are working full time. Women who find themselves stuck with a manchild are angry about it. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/02/12/us/the-household-work-men-and-women-do-and-why.html

I especially wonder about the statutory rape laws. I've heard of more than one instance where the under-age individual's parent pressing charges just after the "rapist's" 18th birthday. One married couple in my neighborhood have been living for years with the husband on the sex offender registry because of the Statutory rape of his current wife. They married as soon as she was legally able to without her parent's consent.

Various reasons, some because it offers hope in time of need, others because they grew up in a faith. And some people believe because they have found that religion and actually believe it is true.

Most people do not mellow with age. People mellow in terms of admitting their faults, admitting their less-than-amazing impact upon the world, but those are internal thoughts. Externally, older folks, I'm afraid, can readily become like you feel you are. Older folks are less tolerant, less interested in youthful endeavors. And then, for men, we have much less testosterone in our bodies, which slows us down and makes us look more "mellow".

The curriculum is decided by the wrong powers.

Fruitcake (with real fruit) is a yea. Toilet paper in front.

cause humans are complete jerks who only look out for themselves

Actually, if you have two mirrors facing each other so that they reflect each other, as you look farther into the repeated reflections, the image will become tinted slightly greenish. Therefore, mirrors are green.

I'm not asking about the men who don't do it, I'm asking about the men who do, because regardless of the number of decent men out there, these kinds of guys are EVERYWHERE.

I am also mixed (white and black), and I believe her when she says she experienced racism in the royal family. I have had some vile things said to me because I am black, and its not nice to put somebody else down

Sorry, I have to......42

Because it was painted by someone who only sees people having bellybuttons. It isn’t a photo

Yes. Ask my parents - they did a masterful job. I just barely survived my childhood.

1) Coming out is extremely personal and there is no "right way" to do it. If you feel more comfortable doing it slowly then you have every right. The first time I came out it was to a very close family member who I trusted, not the whole world. 2) This is not often the case. Most parents have more children because they genuinely want to expand their family. For those couples who do have children to make an older child happy (I can't talk because I don't have children) but it's possible they feel responsible for making sure the child has someone who they can be close with and that they have a constant friend. A sibling is usually the perfect fit. It's true siblings do fight but having companions that will stick with you through your entire life is important. 3) Spacing. Most school have to may students to handle so in order to be able to fit enough lockers for everyone they have to make them tiny. If they were any bigger there wouldn't be enough space for the number of lockers needed.

And why does he give horrible diseases to children and nice people? Why he allows rape or torture to happen? If he exists he is a jerk and deserves no followers

Unlike all of Europe at one time or another, we have never been occupied by a foreign power. I lived in Germany for 10+ years and loved it there. There is a collective memory in Europe, everywhere I have been at least, of cooperation, conciliation and tolerance, since, at one time or another, every state has been occupied, at peace and an occupier of others. People know war and prefer peace.

There's a disconnect between capitalist economies and the U.S. economy. We call ourselves capitalist in the same way that we call Pluto a planet. It's something we used to do, but it's not true anymore, and honestly never really has been. The very fact that you say that work has nothing to do with reward is directly antithetical to capitalism. We are not capitalist and never have been.

Because identity Olympics and scratching for any reason whatsoever to be perceived as special (and therefore socially bulletproof) are what's important in today's social "discourse". Bring on the hate, doesn't make it less true.

The only people who are jerks are jerks.

Never. I am sick of people generalising whites and pretending that everybody else is an inocent saint. All big civilizations are based on conquest, violence and discrimination. Its not a matter of race, its that humans are horrible. Look at the bantu tribes masacrating the san and stealing their lands.

This is right - to an extent. I believe that before anyone is allowed to commit su!c!de they should be obliged to talk to their family and friends. Sometimes knowing how much you're going to be missed can turn your entire life around. It's the only thing that stopped me many times.

Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent. Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent. Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil? Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God? Epicurus

As a black person myself, I don't like people who are not black saying the n-word or negro. Yes, we are reclaiming it, but it is not "beautiful." It is a reminder of slavery, abuse, rape, and degratory names my ancestors were called. I myself use the n-word sometimes because I am reclaiming it, but please DON'T call it beautiful.

As long as we cling to technology and urge it to do our evolving FOR us, we're boned.
