I guarantee you I support and care more about women's sports than you do but keep teeing off on these straw men, it makes you look really strong.

Cool, I'm done with the cherry picking here. Have fun with your completely "fair" sports untainted by the presence of those game breaking trans athletes.

Stop making shit up to fit your narrative.

This is how you started the conversation but all of a sudden I'm being condescending.

Sports are of course both fair and unfair.

But they only get to be unfair the in the ways that you decide right?

There isn’t a better example of the greatness of sport, but you try to twist it to be a negative 😂

Never said it was a negative, just trying to assess why some parts of sports get to be allowed in your definition of fair and unfair. I can give you a laundry list of the reasons why the NBA isn't fair but I know this really has nothing to do with fairness for you. It's odd how someone touting the greatness of sports is also a proponent of disqualifying some people from participating.

It’s as far from a random line in the sand as can be. Born men are not to compete against women. As long as there has existed womens sport, this rule exists implicitly, by definition.

We've always done it this way! What a great reason to keep doing something and never reflect and change for the better!

It's funny because you're so close to understanding why sports aren't fair right here. There's all kinds of diseases, mutations, nutrition, upbringing, etc. that have bearing on the results of competition but you've chosen this random line in the sand of trans athletes to get up in arms about, wonder why that is? I wonder why Lebron spends 1.5 million on his body annually, look how fair we are guys!

Sad that it got delayed but I have high hopes.

Quick question:

Was it ever legal to own slaves?

[–] barooboodoo@lemmy.zip 5 points 6 days ago

Yeah for sure, it must've been that much more frustrating for the nurses that understood the importance of PPE having to work with ones that didn't.

On the one hand you're 1000% right but man it must've sucked so much ass being a nurse during COVID, I probably would've been close to snapping 24/7.

Ok? And what about the sentence right after that one that addresses all this?

It's paywalled

Care to point us to some sources saying they're breaking world records? I'm having trouble corroborating that.

Is it your job to educate yourself? Maybe start there?
