    NBA, NFL, MLB? See that's the point - when participation is based on merit rather than counting noses, distribution amongst races can be skewed in some fields.

    Because if you are splitting hairs about “starting a fight” and “starting a coup de etat” you are an idiot.

    Lol then on what grounds do you assert that these other fields or disproportionately represented groups are not based upon merit?

    Essentially your argument is that blacks can outperform athletically on merit but that its not possible whites can outperform academically on merit. Bullshit

    He doesn't want the presidency for life. He thought he was getting ****ed because **** like 10's of thousands of votes coming in at 3am and every single one was for Biden looks rather ****ing suspect.

    Trump knew Democrats and RINO Republicans hated him with a white hot heat, and would do literally anything to destroy him. His term as President was a vicious orgy of liberal inchoate hatred. Of course he and millions of his supporters knew what contemptible behavior the Washington political elite and their suck-up media hyenas are capable of. It will eventually be proven that Democrats cheated their way to victory in 2020.

    True, though that was just when Trump *thought* Obama had lost the popular vote. Obama had actually won the popular vote in addition to the EC. And the guy who lost has still come out against Trump. Sprinkles on the sundae.

    The votes weren't "coming in" then. The votes had already come in. They were being counted. And that's what made him made. Votes being counted. Unless you are suggesting he was so dumb he couldn't understand even that . . . which you may be correct about. And, no, not "every single one was for Biden." You guys need to turn off the braindead propaganda and turn on your brains.

    If you support Trump's vomit, then the EC is irrelevant to you as well. Our entire electoral process would be irrelevant to you at that point.

    The OP and the title is Fake News. Neither Students nor faculty are required to state their political beliefs.

    Today, rejoice that you are a Free Person, living in a Free Country!

    On it's surface and without a thorough ****ing explanation this looked suss. Sorry, it just did. And considering the contention bullshit of the past 4 years of constant nonsense from left wing media and the administration, if I were Trump I would have a hard time with the explanation for **** like this.

    This was already accounted for and predicted . . . and addressed in my previous post. I'm sorry you think that Trump is too much of an idiot to comprehend this, but I can't say I disagree.

    I never said I didn't understand it. Learn to read. I said it looks suspect. And if you can't be honest to say "ya...that does look ridiculous" then you are a bias waste of time.

    It doesn't "look suspect" to anyone who has bothered to do some basic research and to think about it . . . which obviously excludes the idiot you are defending. Meanwhile, the only people trying to use bias as a substitute for rational thought is . . . well, your ilk. As shown here.

    ON IT'S SURFACE. This kind of outcome just doesn't happen except for the special mass mail in voting nonsense we all got to experience for our special 2020 election because liberals were too afraid to leave their homes until after the election results were in and they felt the need to dance.

    Jesus christ you really are a biased waste of time when discussing this ****..

    Ah, thank you for admitting that by "on it's surface" you mean "someone could be excused for throwing a fit about this if the were either too dumb or too corrupt to think about it for two minutes." I'm sorry that you think only liberals are capable of doing that. I disagree with your assumption that critical thought requires liberalism.

    I disagree with those laws. Especially regarding student beliefs that is nobody's business.

    I understand his point why would people support state schools with their tax dollars when they are teaching(indoctrinating) one view.

    Wow democrats acting like they care about free speech and free thought. I'm touched. Of course if it was democrat governor doing this there would be no complaint from the left. No thread either.

    Yeah but they do not need to be surveying students. The teachers are state employees so that is fine.

    The State Legislature is free to poll students. The schools the State Legislature fund, asks students questions and the students answer as a basic activity of the educational experience.

    Don't pretend you have critical thought. I ask you what a woman is and you get stuck in an endless circular definition loop.

    Lol, I pointed out your political heroes couldn't answer that question. Nor could you provide a consistent answer. I'm sorry that you think bathroom usage is more important than our elections. I don't share that nonsensical position.

    human adult female.

    easy peezy, lemon squeezy. it's not about bathroom usage. it's about over complicating simple terms we've used for centuries to placate the loud minority who are suffering through an identity disorder.

    Trump was the correct choice to re elect in 2020 and we are currently paying the price for you voting based on your emotions.

    And it happened without a second amendment.
