The Far-right Delusion

Not really. I'm about as boring and centrist as you can get!
What do you think about women and girls rights? Do you think they should have their own changing rooms and toilets based on their sex?
 
Would you consider yourself as a progressive?

I am just interested in a proper discussion here. Until recently I had no idea what a culture war was. I have some understanding now as to how they are used by right wing politicians. But I have not found clear examples of how politicians on the left use them. I would be grateful if someone (anyone) can give some examples because the articles I have found so far have not been very helpful.

Please answer the question: Do you believe women and girls should have the right to their own changing rooms and toilets based on their sex?
 
Deary deary me, when you have to resort to misrepresenting the point folk are making, you've already lost the argument/debate ;)
you dont think peoples lives have been made worse by free market neoliberalism

you are wrong

whataboutery

sunshine doesnt want to admit that the right wing populists use culture wars as a deflection

how do you stop a trans woman using a public toilet?
 
Then you don't believe they have the right. You have a progressive anti women and girl agenda imho.

Look, sunshine, my views are irrelevant and I am not going to get dragged into one of these ridiculous loops. I have been looking into this issue of culture wars because I knew very little about them and it seemed an interesting new development. TBH, much of the information out there is pretty nebulous or uses political language I don't understand. From the bits I have been able to understand, it has been much easier to make sense of how right wing politicians use them. To complete my knowledge, I am now just wanting some examples of how the left use culture wars. The examples I had found earlier from Wikipedia, which I posted a couple of pages back, were summarily dismissed. If you know, please just tell me! If you don't know, please be quiet!

Regardless of the socioeconomic model, there are and always have been winners and losers. Tis the way of the world.

Yes it would be great to live in a world where everyone is treated equally, with no poverty, no wars etc.

Ain't going to happen.
 
Oh, well that's alright then!
Let's just keep everything ****.

No, it is not "alright then".

That's not the point at all though, is it.

My point was that your poke at "governments" was not warranted, as you'd later agreed that private companies would do no better.
