J.K. Rowling Nails It!

We need to learn not to take the bait when someone from the radical left attempts to turn the debate to abortion.
These instigators on the left know that is a very divisive issue that even splits the conservative parties.
They know the media will attack anyone who doesn't share their views.
They want to make it an election issue every time.
And a small minority of so- cons are happy to oblige their sabotage and add fuel to the fire.

It is okay to not have a public opinion on everything.

There are so many important economic societal issues facing this country, that losing an election to this is not worth the price.

I don't understand the passion behind the viewpoints of either of the extremes on this issue. But I'm also quite certain I won't change either of their minds.

While your at avoiding issues maybe don't invoke the bogeyman wokeness or serial orientation.

Do you see any upside to getting mired into the abortion debate?

You are the one who brought abortion into this thread, and drug other posters into the morass, deflecting from the original topic.
I didn't watch the video at the start of the thread, was it about abortion?

What is serial orientation? I haven't heard that expression before.

Sexual turned into serial. Spell check. Thread started on wokeness, trying to paint someone as anti woke. You have to paint the whole picture, not just one view since those who criticize woke usual are in the anti abortion camp. She is not.

I guess aggi can be painted with the ultra woke brush, he fits the description perfectly.

That makes somewhat more sense. I thought you were concerned about your shreddies cereal being all oriented in the same general direction.

So now you want to control the content and opinions on Agriville, so much for your wind bag posts on freedom of speech.

As I was saying, the radical left wants to hijack the debate, to try to force the moderates to take a public opinion on this purposefully divisive issue.

There is no right answer. There's no way to win this one once you get involved.

Don't let them control the narrative.

People got upset with Harper for keeping a tight leash on his people. But that is exactly why this is necessary.

Increased polarization snuffs out intelligent discussion and is the playground for the lunatics. You can be pro choice and accept the LGBTQ community but you should be able to question aspects that don’t seem right? It’s the same as political affiliation vs ideology. Worst bloody thing is not to question and criticize your party of choice when you don’t agree with them rather than saying nothing blindly following because of ideology.

So what about an elected UCP MLA who likened non binary and ***** kids to feces?

Is that acceptable discourse in Alberta?

[AlbertaFarmer5]

That is called whataboutism. It's what ineffective debaters resort to when they are out of arguments, and they know their position is indefensible.

[WiltonRanch]

Yeah cc when I read that I thought wtf is the point of you saying anything?

[chuckChuck]

You are both shining examples of lame whataboutism!

That makes no sense at all. Can you explain?
You literally used the words what about in your previous post.
I have often compared your immaturity to a bully on the playground. And with this post, you actually used the childish taunt, I know you are but what am I.
