Oh no.  Someone used the generally accepted "guys" to refer to people, but one of them was a woman.  Egads!  Bring out the firing squad. 
I think you missed on the context on this one, but go ahead and be offended if you are the sensitive type,
Absolutely no offense taken on my part.  Some of my best friends are guys!  Wink

You're right, progressive rock plus regressive everything else makes a lot more sense.

Do you have any statistics to back this up, sounds kind of made up to me.
 

Mr. Money, you didn't back any of your original assertations with Stats. You suffer from projection.  You transfer your feelings of inadequacy on to others. In other words, you accuse others of faults you yourself display.  Case in point- You didn't provide Stats for any of your anti-Trump assertations.  Now you  accuse me of not providing a stat for one of my counter arguments.    I recommend you watch Jordan Peterson videos.  Doctor Peterson will explain how you can overcome your "Projection Issues" and take responsibility for your life.  

I'll give you one stat.  You look up the others. I'm not your personal librarian.  This stat is going to be tricky. It will require you to perform math functions.  Ready?   71% of all adult Americans Don't have a Degree.  31% of all Trump voters have a degree!

To help your research,  Check out what percentage of degreed social workers, English Majors, women's studies, American Indian/Native/Indigenous studies, Dance majors, music,  Film , Fashion Design and Drama majors voted for Trump.  These are """Liberal Arts Majors""".     

Bottom line-  If I'm wrong, than a higher percentage of Degreed dancers, actors, musicians, fashion designers and feminists voted for Trump than degreed biologists, engineers, nurses, doctors, and physicists. 

So you won't be triggered, I'll provide you with a safe-space, liberal newspaper account, explaining the 71%-31% stat.  Simple logic will be required. 

https://www.washingtonpost.com/news/monkey-cage/wp/2017/06/05/its-time-to-bust-the-myth-most-trump-voters

PS. This is the last time I hold your hand Easy Money.  It's time for you to leave the nest and research your own arguments and stats.Wink


Keep on rocking dude.  This place isn't just a place for progressive rock.  Sadly, it's mostly filled with "progressives" in the political/social sense as well.  Too much left-wing identity politics for me.  That's why I'm hardly ever here. 
I can understand your anger at me, but what did the horse I rode in on ever do to you?

I afraid your right on this one. Things will probably get a lot worst before they get better.
LGBT rights, contraception, censorship....Who know's what they will go after next?

Just awful.  A Missouri state rep, Tila Hubrecht, apparently said that "rape pregnancies are a silver lining from God."  Insane.  https://www.riverfronttimes.com/newsblog/2016/05/06/rape-pregnancies-are-a-silver-lining-from-god-says-missouri-lawmaker
