For example, Mystique being transgender and Morph being non-binary.

    Did you not watch the 2000’s X-Men movies that were thinly veiled gay rights discussions?

    Or the original comics which were anti-religious persecution comics?

    Or the entire history of X-Men being treated like minorities targeted by conservative society and pulpit bangers?

    It’s literally the core of the comic.

      It really isn’t about conservative society. It’s about society in general. Stan lee was against intolerance which isn’t tied to any political platform.

        intolerance which isn’t tied to any political platform.

        Except for the GOP platform. Being anti gay, anti trans, etc is all wrapped up in it.

              That document seems to be corrupted. All I see is they want marriage to be defined as a man and a woman. I can’t copy and paste out of it for some reason, and I can’t even open it in a browser.

              Is that your earth-shattering evidence? That is from 2016, but it is the current platform. I suspect that will change as people really don’t care anymore.

                they want marriage to be defined as a man and a woman

                Exactly.

                Is that your earth-shattering evidence?

                It crossed my mind to link more, but I knew you wouldn’t even be able to handle this one. Best to stick to one at a time, lest you ignore the rest as you often do.

                That is from 2016, but it is the current platform.

                If it doesn’t represent the GOP, then they shouldn’t have it on their site. They chose to keep it up because that bigotry hasn’t changed.

                  While I don’t agree with their games. That’s a 1st amendment issue.

                  My view is as a government employee. Do your job and shut up.

                  I think I get part of your malfunction now. You think all conservatives are socially conservative. I am not. I lean much more left on most social topics. I’m right with military, spending, etc.

                  I’m not religious. So the social Bible thumping conservatives I have little in common with.

                    He doesn’t think anything, he has provided ypu the platforms own statements on these topics. You think you can ignore reality as a debate tactic.

            It’s the whole “campaigning specifically on attacking trans people and minorities” that kinda gives it away
