Do you think they was paid?


So much publicity over this, almost seems like a stunt.

reply

They who?

By the way, when refering to multiple people one should use "were".

They were paid.

reply

Guess you didn't read their message--they prefer to be called they, even if they is only one person.

reply

That's just grammatically incorrect.
You can call Elliot he, if you want to address his recent decision.

If I decide I want to be called Your Highness, are you going to do it?

reply

Yes, Your Highness.

reply

they was paid

reply

It does have the skink of a publicity stunk.

reply

I hate smelly, attention-seeking lizards myself.

reply

No. not paid.

I think the entity now known as Elliot Page believes what she/he/zhe/free/gee/weee is saying.

reply

I know people that sincerely believe they are Napoleon Bonaparte ... would you support them to reinstate the French Empire and start a war in Europe???

reply

Rumor has it that Napoleon didn't have kids and I heard it's because he beat his Bonaparte. 😁

reply

Even if I knew the real Napoleon Bonaparte I wouldn't help him start wars and conquer people.

reply

Why? He is his identity and according to the crazy left we have to conform to the assumed identity ...

reply

Because I don't want to start wars or conquer people at all. Period. Full stop.

reply

So you would agree with him that he is Napoleon, the ruler of France?

reply

In your post, you asked if a given reader met somebody in our time who claimed to be Napoleon, but was not in fact the French Emperor, would that reader assist the claimed Bonaparte in conquering Europe?

My reply was meant as a bit of a jesting one, stating simply that the veracity of the claim to be Napoleon does not affect whether or not I would help said person inflict pain and subjugation on millions of people. It was a cheeky way to highlight an ineffectual point in that particular litmus test.

For goodness' sake, I said nothing of whether I would believe a delusional person, nor did I state whether or not I agree with the idea that transgenderism is delusional thinking or not. I just wanted to drop in a modicum of mirth into an otherwise intense and angry thread.

reply

That's a good example because we know it's the result of schizophrenia.

reply

yes this definitely was a publicity stunt. she seems lesbians but wants to cash in on the cool new trans fad that is all the rage these days

reply

They said the same thing about Joaquin Phoenix way back when. This will be the same, it's all one big stunt

reply

I don't think so.

Wokes are dangerous. If she did some Joaquin Phoenix to finally say "hey, I'm not trans, it was all a big joke", that would make their blood boil. They would consider it as some kind of sacrilege, a desecration.

They wouldn't attack her physically (probably), but anything that could be done to destroy her career and her social life would be done.

This is not a stunt. It's too dangerous, she'd be playing with fire.

reply

That would be awesome if they suddenly said it was all a joke. I'd become a movie producer just to make sure they continued to get work.

reply

NO.
