DM But doesn't it reinforce what I have been saying for years? That the Democrat party needs to get back to protecting the working class instead of focusing on 'boutique' issues. Sure, support all sorts of specific micro-issues (but let's face it; how many trans people are there, and how many are going to change their vote?), but place EVERYTHING should be set within the context of everyday social justice. Let the micro-issues be appendices to the main point of fighting inequalities of ALL sorts. |

The goal of these rules is to ensure a safe, friendly and enjoyable environment at GameKnot for everyone. They can be summed up as simply "Be good to others, and GameKnot by extension". Rules of Conduct: You may not harass, insult, badger, threaten, or intentionally annoy, irritate, or rush other players. You may not use any sexually explicit, vulgar, obscene, rude, harmful, disturbing, threatening, abusive, defamatory, hateful, inflammatory, racially or ethnically offensive language and/or images. Please keep everything PG-13. No exceptions for abbreviated or misspelled words with clear intended meaning. You may not threaten violence against an individual or a group of people.

You may analyze games with chess engines after they are finished. You may consult chess books or game/move databases at any time. You may not artificially manipulate your rating. It includes (but not limited to) resigning games with equal or winning positions, intentionally letting games time out, offering to draw (or accepting a draw offer) in superior positions, and purposefully losing/drawing games to lower your rating in general.

You may not disrupt or intentionally interfere with the normal functionality of the website (e.g. disabling ads). You may not impersonate any GameKnot staff, nor claim to act on behalf of GameKnot. You may not pretend to be someone else with the purpose of deceiving, or intentionally misleading, other users (e.g. catfishing). If your account is suspended or if your private messaging and/or forum posting privileges are revoked, you may not use other users' accounts to get around the ban. You may not help other users with suspended accounts and/or revoked messaging/forum posting privileges to get around their ban.

How Does it Feel to be Female? Not that I mind all that much—but I guess if you’re in the Capitol you must use the women’s restroom. www.theguardian.com |

Transgender Sports Top Issue Facing Nation Hermaphrodites were known in Ancient Greece. Quote: Anne Fausto-Sterling’s suggestion that the prevalence of intersex might be as high as 1.7% has attracted wide attention in both the scholarly press and the popular media… This figure includes conditions… such as Klinefelter syndrome, Turner syndrome, and late-onset adrenal hyperplasia… chromosomal sex is inconsistent with phenotypic sex, or in which the phenotype is not classifiable as either male or female. End quote How many college students are engaged in athletics? Half a million? How many of these students are transgender? Fewer than ten. If half those are female/male transitions like Eliot Page, that makes five or six male/female transitions in college athletics nationwide. High school athletes are prohibited from elective surgery in most cases. Sounds like this ought to be a national issue requiring an Executive Order, MAGA. |
