center-left thinktank just released a list of terms to avoid to not alienate the other side and increase the chance of a democratic victory. one section was gender terms

thoughts?

i like "Cletus" as a sort of slur for unintelligent right-wing southern whites. i find it gets under their skin surprisingly well

it's nice that the left is admitting that trannies got trump elected, but it's bizarre that the conclusion is they need to change the language and not tell the troons to fuck off into the sun

If the democratic party did a complete 180 tomorrow, August 23rd 2025, and became appealing to sane regular people again, they still wouldn't get any of those votes until the children born on August 24th, 2025 turned 18. Because those would be the first people to not remember this moment in history, when the dems were completely unsalvageable and loathed by the entire planet.

another transparent attempt at splitting democratic voterbase up. if you're not new to this you'd already know that. you'll never hear from them again after the next election cycle.

it took me 5 minutes of googling to see the founder of "third way" is from a family with a fortune of an estimated 50 billion+, owns hyatt hotels, held a campaign party for mitt romney in their "gargantuan" mansion, etc, etc

here's your "leftist" think tank

They're right you know. This performative bullshit helped nobody. You can talk about trans issues and not sound like an offputting robot. Andy Beshear excels at this.

time and time again you're proven wrong. leftists only win offices by being unapologetic and not pandering to your hurt feelings.

I hate to be the first to inform you but the elections that define national policy are not decided in Brooklyn. They're decided in a few counties in the midwest, south, and southwest. Have you ever tried talking to a median voter from those areas?

>leftists only win offices

Leftists don't win offices. The few that do are comically irrelevant.

and? who cares. many extremely wealthy people are very socially left-leaning

they're using their money to try to combat trump and trumpism. sounds based to me

that's the point
leftoids invented a bunch of "inclusive" language that none of the people they're trying to "include" actually use. its just a bunch of yuppie white people trying to sound more refined and educated. very she/they cis woman energy

>inseminated person

I spent like a year and a half immersed in queer/trans pregnancy and trying-to-conceive groups and sites and books and shit and going to tons of trans-friendly medical appointments and looking at LGBT friendly sperm bank shit in an extremely progressive area. I have never in my goddamn life heard the term "inseminated person." These people are just three references deep in some shit some right winger hallucinated.

as far back as like 2017 i was once corrected by someone for saying the word "mother" and they told me i should say "birthing person" instead. this shit is real. just the other day my friend casually dropped an "unhoused person" mid-conversation
Anonymous No.40799098 [Report] >>40799160

people sometimes say birthing person, usually when it is completely appropriate (ie medical research, public health, etc--not telling someone they are not a mother or a woman).

It's also more accurate when talking about pregnancy in political/legal/medical contexts, because minors get pregnant all the time and need a lot of help, and it's fucked up to call an abused girl or child a woman.

Unhoused person is much more common than that and I don't really have a problem with it. It. I usually say homeless unless I'm talking to someone who doesn't want to be called homeless.

Inseminated person, though, is incredibly fake.

ok but nobody likes wokespeak. its part of the reason that rightoids consider progressives to be a cult.
cis is the only one i like because it has a proper linguistic root and describes a group of people that otherwise doesnt have a word to describe them (just saying "normal" is too broad), rather than being an alternative for a word that already exists but is arbitrarily considered hurtful.
