    1. They’re telling you what they’re going to do for Hoosiers …

      It sure isn’t better roads or better schools or better jobs.

    2. @Joe B. Yeah, they are going to engage in ridiculous culture wars that result in nothing meaningful except a further divided electorate

    3. I care. I’m tired of the semantic verbal fantasy land that liberals want to live in by calling people things are not. Men are men and women are women. End of story.

    4. It super doesn’t matter, Glen. Being respectful to people and people being true to their own identity has no negative impact on you. There are zero (0) things that will get worse for you in any measurable fashion by leaving people alone.

    1. The nuclear family was never really a thing to begin with, just an ideology. Only 18% of American households are “nuclear families.” It’s not something that is a concern to the vast, vast majority of people, nor do they care. What people care about is how potential leadership would address major issues in housing, education, pollution, transportation, etc., not the culture war noise.

  1. Yes, focus on more important things for sure. But “chest feeding”? – c’mon now, let’s not get too stupid here. Don’t you need “breasts” to “breastfeed” or am I missing something? When did simple stuff suddenly get more complicated…

  2. “Control language and you control the masses” – George Orwell. Unfortunately many on the left think 1984 was an instruction manual. That’s why the left always project and pooh pooh anyone that stands up to them as being engaged in a culture war. In fact they fired the first shots in the culture war with ridiculous terms like “chest feeding” and “birthing person.”

    1. Getting angry about something that has absolutely no impact on you whatsoever is not the flex you think it is.
