I thought democrats are the party of science? The results dont even help her case in the least. Strange she wanted to release this right before the mid-terms.

She is arguing that although her DNA is less than 0.1% Native American, her claim is legitimate.

Interesting in that they believe in the Science of global warming, but will also argue that there are 31 genders.

"Victims"...Please, elaborate

You, aside from being the biggest Troll on this site are a riot.

While you are at it, please explain how the left can claim Science is at the root of the "Global warming" argument, but "Science" is conveniently ignored when the State of New York announces it will recognize Thirty One different genders. Does not "Science" state that in the end there are only XX and XY?...Biologically, there can be NO other options.

I would like to be 30...( I am 59)...But I will walk around and tell people I identify as 30 and wish to be treated and addressed as such, Oh wait, that is biologically and scientifically, impossible.

Perhaps Elizabeth Warren can just tell people she is an Indian as wishes to be recognized as such. Science.

Presidential material?...Maybe in New York & California!

I have, a bunch of times before in a serious manner, followed by questions, and you post the Buckley quote time and time again, rather than discuss it. Sounds trollish to me.

This is a perfect example of something I’ve tried to discuss, but you bail every time and post the Buckley quote.....let’s admit this is all correct - that the Democrat lawmakers are being hypocritical about science in this case. Ok fine, we established that. What is your overall point? Each side does it, which means you are failing to point out how they are different. But yet look how angry it makes you when “the left” does it. When others do it, no problem. Talk about hypocrisy. Having a personal vendetta against an entire political party isn’t logical, so why do you choose to go down that road with the likes of Muleman and Goober?

You, aside from being the biggest Troll on this site

I’m comfortable with the fact that you are the only one to ever say this in all my years on the site.

No, not as far as I am concerned or involved. No questions, No discussion, explain to me how I am a Victim, prove yourself not to be a Troll.

In fact, science is trying to help explain and understand the various types of gender. While many are born M or F, there are many combinations a person can be born with - M and F anatomy, incomplete anatomy, testosterone levels, hormones, etc. You can laugh at it all you want, but many children are born on a spectrum between traditional M and F every day and it is great that scientists are trying to explain it. Does gender identity go overboard sometimes? Sure, but better than ignoring it completely and trying to fit everyone into 2 boxes. It's not just people, this occurs throughout the animal kingdom.

Exactly - was going to post similar, but man why bother? People who are determined to keep biologically variant individuals in the "freak" closet are going to do so no matter what.

As far as Liz Warren's self-identification as Native American, that is her own business - she wasn't trying to officially join a tribe. It was based on her family heritage, stories passed down from her ancestors. There is zero constitutional legal basis for definition of race anyway - the race checkboxes are a broad and general way of tabulating demographics.

prove yourself not to be a Troll.

It doesn’t work that way - the onus is on you to convince others that I am one, if that’s your goal. Good luck with that. As I said earlier, I’m comfortable that you are the only one to ever say that in all my years here.

How am I a victim?

I don’t think you are a victim. But I think a hatred for a political party, and for those who hold those political values, stems from a feeling of victimization by them in some capacity. Liberals feel victimized by Republicans over human rights, conservatives feel victimized by Obama - and each group expresses that feeling with rage and blame. In your example above about science - it’s the hypocrisy that seems to bother you, but that doesn’t differentiate them from anyone else. Everyone is a hypocrite, even Republicans. A liberal who denies scientific research versus the religious right who support Trump - only one hypocrisy bothers you. To finally answer the above question, since it’s not about hypocrisy, I think it’s about victimization.

Agreed, which is why I’m baffled that she, and the left, gave this an ounce of attention. The reason why the left is losing is because they are allowing themselves to be trolled by right-wing trolls. The Pocahontas comments should’ve been ignored and tossed aside like the garbage it is, but no, she goes and gets a meaningless DNA test because Trump fooled her into losing focus, and liberals followed. Obama would be disappointed in the left’s current strategy.

Agreed.

I am not a Republican. I am a Libertarian who believes the Government has way too much say as to how we live our lives. That is the basis of the Libertarian belief system. No party is perfect, no person who ascribes to a particular party can stand with them 100% of the time. To me the Democratic Party and its beliefs and values represent MORE Government, therein lies the reason I object to democratic ideals on a much larger percentage than I do with the Republican view of everyday life. This in NO way makes me a "victim". I am merely someone who does not dance to your music or agree with your views and I offer zero apologies for that.

As I explained earlier, I think the three of you feel victimized, hence “bonding together as victims”, because you all feel that way, IMO. If you feel trolled, then I don’t know what to tell you.

Fair enough. But the Buckley quote is not about this. If your motive is about government over reach, then why do you like the Buckley quote?

Are the other 2 Libertarians?...You have zero concept about how I feel as evidenced in your response. You have yet to explain how you "feel" I have been "victimized" by simply posting a contrary belief. I, on the other hand have made quite clear where my thoughts find their origin. Once again, I ask, "How does this make me a victim"?

To me the Democratic Party and its beliefs and values represent MORE Government, therein lies the reason I object to democratic ideals on a much larger percentage than I do with the Republican view of everyday life.

The Buckley quote is absolutely non-sequitur to this attempt at conversation. I have used it in the past as as demonstration of how difficult it appears for you to accept even the remote possibility that someone might have an opinion that opposes yours. This is about your attempts at prodding those who have the audacity to offer up thoughts you disagree with, using slurs and condescension as a means trying to provoke.

This why you are a Troll

Well, for starters, you’ve been stating that you feel trolled.

I have used it in the past as as demonstration of how difficult it appears for you to accept even the remote possibility that someone might have an opinion that opposes yours.

You’ve used it with many other people here in many different topics. What were those reasons? Is it about Liberals being hypocrites?

using slurs and condescension as a means trying to provoke.

This why you are a Troll

Not trying to troll you, but you don’t you oppose that liberal PC crap? Why then do you need it?

Ok. And when the government has way too much say as to how we live our lives, it takes away some of the people’s rights and freedoms, correct? And when the government takes away rights and freedoms from its people, wouldn’t you say they are being victimized by the government? Sort of like your stance on gun control.

This in NO way makes me a "victim".

Agreed. But If Democrats pass a law requiring all gun owners to take exams every 2 years in order to keep their guns, would you feel as though Democrats we’re taking away your rights as a responsible gun owner?

She did it because of people like you, Boyton, who get a hard on every time a democrat tries to out-Trump Trump, with the baiting tweets and the liberal MSM Boston Globe printing this DNA test result above the fold as if it was a cure for cancer, when at best it was a flimsy inconclusive data point that proved NOTHING.

Why is this like me if I just stated that I think liberals were stupid for doing it? Serious question.

Yes, but not because of your conservative values, but because you point the finger at your boogeyman rather than examine yourself.

It's great that she values having Native American ancestry - it's sort of a positive modern take on the old "One Drop Rule".
It was a personal choice on a dumb checkbox that is a joke, and nobody's business anyway, unless you are claiming tribal status. Then it was dug up by her enemies to use as some big hoohah. It is not an issue.

The whole idea of "race" is pretty idiotic when you think about it. America is a melting pot. I would certainly rather see folks celebrating their ancestral diversity than going on about "racial purity".

Following quote speaks to this, from To Kill a Mockingbird by the late great queen of Southern literature Harper Lee:

"Well how do you know we ain't Negroes?"

"Uncle Jack Finch says we really don't know. He says as far as he can trace back the Finches we ain't, but for all he knows we mighta come straight out of Ethiopia durin' the Old Testament."

"Well if we came out durin' the Old Testament it's too long ago to matter."

"That's what I thought," said Jem, "but around here once you have a drop of Negro blood, that makes you all black."

What's really degrading in all this is the president referring to Mrs. Warren as "Pocahontas" regardless of whether she has Native American ancestry or not (it appears she does). His name calling in general is very immature and petulant.

Now will he be a man of his word and pay the $1 million he said he would?
