Well, let's just get this
all out in the open.
Why's it okay to make
jokes about transgender folk.
I'm not butthurt about it but
would like to hear some
of the reasons.

What a sexist, misogynistic turn of phrase! I am DEEPLY offended and think that you are a complete jerk, boor, and bad, bad person to have shot that phrase across my delicate sensibilities! NOT funny! TERRIBLY poor taste!
Bad, I tell you, bad, bad, bad!

You started it madbolter1.
Going to have to keep it going
if you want any credibility in
the direction of humor.
Lay another one on us to see if
you're sincere in your jockularity.

Fortunately for me, d-know, I feel zero sense of obligation or desire to rise to any of your belated challenges. You were had, and you can't unring that bell.
And now I'm done with you.
Good one, Jgill.

This whole outrage shtick of the left about protected groups is comical hypocrisy. Oh no.... we can make fun of the LGBTQRSTUV people. It might hurt their feelings... Oh boo hoo.
But any one or group on the conservative side.... it's open season. There is no level that's too low.
We've lost our sense of humor and sense reasonableness. We look for any excuse to be outraged.
And it's all about who's the offender. Jimmy Kimmel trashes Karl Malone and no one bats an eye. A Congresswoman make antisemitic statements and the Dems give her a pass. Megyn Kelly opines that putting on black makeup is okay if it's part of a costume. WTF? White kids can't dress up as Lebron? Or Barack Obama?

I'm not offended in the least. I love off color humor. AOC is never going to read this, and I doubt there's many trannies here.
But first of all it's lame to specify your own jokes as "good humor". And I really doubt anyone "fell over laughing" at this.
Calling someone something as a "joke" is disparaging to people who are like that. Like calling someone gay. You insinuate there's something wrong with being gay. And right on cue another righty fear joins in with "She might be borderline retarded". Not enough empathy to realize how using that word could really bring up a lot of pain to a disadvantaged person who has been called that. Again I doubt there's any mentally handicapped people reading this forum, so no one to really be hurt by this, but it just shows the mentality of the person saying it. Reminds me of a post years ago (on rec.climbing?) where someone use the term "rope n*gger" and they couldn't understand/admit why that is so offensive.
MB1 You admit you did this to troll, offend and get a rise out of people. I can think of better ways to entertain myself.
I'd let a lot of this slide if it was actually funny. As soon as I saw the post topic I knew exactly what it was going to be and you didn't disappoint or surprise.
I'm surprised no one has yet said "Sorry I'm not Politically Correct". Code for I'm okay with being an as#@&%e and treating people poorly. EdwardT comes pretty close by equating the government not being able to stifle free speech to someone getting called out for being a d#@&%e bag. You're welcome to not be politically correct all you want. It just means you're an as#@&%e.

Does anyone realize that "trans man" ("AOC is actually a trans man"/thread title) - is actually a female-to-male transgender person, the exact opposite of what the author said AOC was?...
I think the author needs to learn more about the subject, to study in depth, so to speak... perhaps take a field trip to some clubs in SF, since there's such fascination with this subject

All the people jumping like monkeys saying it's only a joke and one shouldn't be outraged are all outraged now by the opposite.

Gnaw Mean - it was actually Cab, but definitely cheap - out of a box I bought for a canoe trip, which sadly ruptured and had to be consumed fully ahead of time in order for it not to spoil.
A true Dr. Piton aficionado would know that I do knott drink Merlot, except on extremely rare occasions, like a little bit mixed in with a Bordeaux.
St00pid butthurt virtue signalling white men.

^^ I try to get the stuff from the good side of the river, with more Cab Franc and Cab Sauv and less Merlot in the mixture.
A true wine aficionado would know the other two red Bordeaux varietals without having to look it up.
