    Of all the gigantic fish that urgently need to be fried, why the actual fuck do we put so much energy into legislating who can or can’t play a fucking game??

    It’s boxing. Boxing.

    Our planet is on fire. The Nazis are back. Most of us are wage slaves. Women are going to prison over their physiology. Multiple nations are currently at risk of being wiped off the map… and the folks with the power to contribute a shred of progress toward fixing any of those are wasting their time worrying about whether or not some fucker can participate in a game based on the dangly bits in their pants.

    …not that Boebert would actually make the right decision on any of the actually important issues. Maybe I shouldn’t complain about that dipshit fixating on sports. But still, fuck!

      That’s the point. All this culture war bullshit is there to distract from climate change, nazis and all the wage slavery (and regular slavery) going on in the world today.

      Conservatives care about all of those actually relevant things, but they’re trying to make them even worse.

      Of course that wouldn’t be very popular, so instead they just scream about what’s in people’s pants and their voters eat it up
