Not sure you convinced me of anything. I don't think the rules as they are make it fair competition. But it seems like we agree if the rules were correct then it would be fair. Seems difficult to achieve.

Huh? So because I'm talking about it, it's a non-issue? Could we discuss the issue and not the poster please?

Bathroom access. There we go. That’s a decision involving law and society.
Sports management questions seem like they belong in a Sports forum.

I didn't attack him. I just know where his leanings are informed. He hasn't been shy about sharing that.

If Tree is a victim of any kind, then whatever, everyone is a victim. The guy was given his own thread, he's been given lots of attention and replies. "The libs want to silence contrary opinions" is at least false here on RM, as tree's thread has been at the top for a month.

But you haven't been fairly addressing contrary arguments. I have been made an example of, persecuted, which is indeed popular with far left these days.

You've been engaged with and tolerated, tree. For a long time now, more than fairly. You're either trolling or the most high maintenance dude around.

If we can drop me and start talking about the topics at hand, then I will be happy. Call that high maintenance.

Sports are the least consequential thing in the entire world, and it’ll work itself out in time without ending civilization. That’s my position on that issue.
How do you feel about transgender protections in terms of something like employee rights, tree?

Imagine the state of the discourse being so fucking bad, so pudding-brained, vile, and disingenuous, that you wish r2d was here.
