It’s not live and let live. The left wants you to accept that men can use women’s dressing rooms and restrooms and participate in women’s sports. They want to groom children to believe they are the opposite sex, then force the parents to allow them to mutilate the children and poison them. They want to riot and attack people who disagree with them.

Too little too late. Their sales must have dropped.
Budweiser has released a new patriotic advertisement as its parent company struggles with controversy over its endorsement partnership with transgender influencer Dylan Mulvaney.
The advertisement, which was released on social media Friday, features one of Budweiser’s famous Clydesdale horses traversing the country from New York City to the Grand Canyon, passing by scenes in the American heartland as a narrator delivers a patriotic message.
“This is a story bigger than beer,” the ad’s narrator says in the ad. “This is the story of the American spirit.”
Edit. More from Anheuser-Busch.
“We never intended to be part of a discussion that divides people,” said Anheuser-Busch InBev CEO Brendan Whitworth in a carefully crafted, heavily focus-grouped press release which failed to mention Mulvaney, Bud Light, or transgender issues. “We are in the business of bringing people together over a beer.”
“I care deeply about this country, this company, our brands and our partners. I spend much of my time traveling across America, listening to and learning from our customers, distributors and others,” the statement continued. “Moving forward, I will continue to work tirelessly to bring great beers to consumers across our nation.”
Translation: Let’s all forget about this over a beer.

Well that’s clearly not true. You dont chose to promote a divisive personality without the intention of becoming part of the discussion. If you want to bring people together, you promote the common ground.
What they didnt intend is for their stunt to backfire to the extent it did.

Do you think this might affect a man’s health? A “women’s health grant” LOL. I bet they can’t define the word “woman”.

I understand that people can disagree about what they feel is best. But denouncing “Teach facts not opinions” as extremist is the extremist position.

I can’t tell - is this article intended to convey a touch of common sense about reality, or is it intended to subtly stir up outrage?

It’s Utah so I think he just respects stay at home moms looking after their children, but at the same time says you can’t really do that and be a full time employee and wants them to choose. This is in the context of a “return to the office” policy for his company. He mentioned, unrelated to childcare, that they had several dozen remote “workers” who hadn’t logged in for a month…

Right, I was thinking more about the article, not the CEO. I was [rhetorically] wondering if they quoted him to report about his straightforward assessment, or if they expect that straightforwardness will piss people off.
But first we must agree on the facts, and facts are often confused with majority opinions (or minority opinions).

For most people it’s probably neither, but in my mind it is evoking the idea of employers providing childcare services for their employees’ kids. He wouldn’t have to say much about it if he added a childcare facility to his “state of the art” offices.
Sure, that may be a good business decision. But it’d be a solution to the reality, and he was talking about (at least according to the quotes) the reality itself not how to address it.
He was also saying that employees have to make sacrifices. It may be the reality in this country, but it’s not a good one, and IMO makes him the asshole.
But the “sacrifices” he talks about is not getting everything the way you want it to be. We all want the best of both worlds; not getting it isnt really a sacrifice, it’s making a choice. The only sacrifice is of your idealistic perfect situation, in favor of something more realistic.
So I assume that your answer to my rhetorical question is that this article is intended to spark outrage and reinforce how the evil money-grubbing old white guy is the cause for all the evils of society?

My answer is that since the article doesn’t actually state any opinions or make any calls to action and simply reports, as all news should, it’s unlikely to evoke any reaction from most people. Some people, like myself, might think about the possible solution I outlined. The guy can’t really be blamed for what he said because he is a product of our reality, but some of us know that there are better ways to do things.

Wow! Where to begin …
- It not only appears as socialism, but it is socialism.
- So you’re for the money saving route, huh? Well then, you would certainly be for castration of the father, if known, and sterilization of the mother after the first abortion. That would certainly be the “money saving” route.
- Sticking with the money saving aspect of your post, would it not be saving money to limit the social benefits to a certain number of years or children?
A few bad apples? I personally know a total of two people who have been killed/murdered. They were both killed by illegal immigrants. I am personally aware of only one more prolific killer than illegal immigrants – Cancer.
Nice to emphasize a less relevant word in your statement. The missing word that should be emphasized is legal, as in "Most legal immigrants are not criminals. All illegal immigrants are criminals. Why are they illegal? They don’t want to follow the rules that legal immigrants followed, including my wife, @jesselivermore (I presume), my tile guy, and millions of others.
They’re also illegal because one political party has encouraged them to become so.

A member of the men’s swim team should decide to compete with the women. And the women should welcome him, while challenging anyone to distinguish between that man and this whatever-he-is. And when whatever-he-is complains about constantly getting beaten by a man in a woman’s spot, all the women can lecture it on how it needs to be supportive and not only champion agendas that work out to it’s benefit.
