More misrepresentation from Sam Seder. And you wonder why she won't debate you? The truth is that Candace was speaking facts that night. Even T.I. and Killer Mike were agreeing with a lot of what she said. T.I. only interrupted her because he could see she was tryna give a thoughtful answer. Can't have that! Gotta shut her up! Meanwhile, Killer Mike gave what seemed like a very similar answer to what she was trying to give. Yet he gets all the applause, Candace all the disdain. No surprise there.
So to answer T.I.'s question, we got to make up our minds if we are talking about how Americans in general were living or just the disparities between black and white Americans. If we're talking about the latter, it was in the 50s before the welfare state had been established. From there, we would see fatherlessness in the home skyrocket, being incentivized by the so-called "War on Poverty". Take Killer Mike's advice and read some Thomas Sowell if you don't know about it.
But if we're talking more generally, in recent years we've all enjoyed blessings in medicine, technology, access to information, etc. that those decades could only dream of. Americans of all colors and socioeconomic status are doing better than ever before. But I'd say it was greater maybe a decade ago, before the SJWs and feminists and race-baiters (more oppressive inventions of the left) were given so much power. In our universities, in Hollywood, in the mainstream media, everywhere. And they took aim at EVERYBODY Just got through tryna cancel Dave Chappelle. Before that they tried to get Mario Lopez fired because he said maybe we shouldn't let 3-year olds choose their fuckin' gender. Trump was a response to exactly that sort of bullshit. T.I. jumps back to before women could vote or before blacks were freed from slavery because it fits his agenda. There's no need for all that. We all know that part of why Trump's in office is because he's a giant middle finger to the establishment, career politicians, and everybody trying to shut us up. And that's real.

@mk......... "The real question is why this is so upsetting for you,"
No, that's just a question you're trying to use to get us off-topic. But to answer, nothing I've said suggests I'm upset about any of it. Are you meaning to ask "Why do you care so much?"
"If someone asks me to use the correct gender, I do so"
How do you know? What makes it the correct gender?
"cause I don't really give a sh!t."
Now that, I'm inclined to believe.
"If someone thinks he/she/it/whatever is a unicorn then I will call it a unicorn if it makes it feel better."
Lol, well at least you're trying to be consistent... so far. What about a white person who identifies as black? Or a 10-year old who identifies as 30?
"That's called being polite and kind."
There are many ways to be polite and kind, without blindly calling someone something they're not...
"And as long as it doesn't affect me personally,"
So you agree that people should be able to speak how they want, run their business how they want, etc.?
"Maybe it's because you want everyone to be like you"
Unfounded. Again, maybe you're meaning to simply ask me "Why do you care?" and just failing...

@DarkPuppy9 "well for starters nobody is indoctronating kids to be trans"
How could you possibly know that no one is doing this? And what does that have to do with anything I've said anyway?
"They do have definitions,"
All of them subjective and/or circular so far, yes, which is the problem.
"You see people don't explain it to you, because you don't want to listen and you engage in bad faith arguments."
Also unfounded. And I've actually had lots of people make an effort to explain it to me, but that resulted in me finding out there really isn't any sound logic there.
"No type of discrimination is justified"
Nonsense. We discriminate all the time. There's tons of things you can do that I wouldn't be permitted to do. Things having to do with your money, your home/business, your spouse (if you have one), etc. The question is never, "Is discrimination okay?" but always "What is justified and what is unjustified discrimination?" and then of course "Why?"
"I mean you're othering a minority,"
How do you mean "othering"? Just disagreeing? Because that's all I've done.
"insulting them and making accusations."
I haven't insulted them, no, and the only "accusation" I've made of trans people and trans advocates is that they subscribe to a worldview they cannot logically defend.
"So I'm sorry if you doing the same thing that people who commit violence do that I mistook you for one."
Except that's not what you did. People who commit violence are wrong because they commit violence, not because they might agree with any given statement. What next? Is "2+2=4" hate speech, since surely most violent criminals will agree with it?

@nvna1111 The point wasn't to compare "credibility" (which, anyone who can't give an objective, workable definition for "gender" shouldn't be considered an expert on the subject anyway). It was simply to show you why trying to redirect me to someone else to substantiate your position is silly.
"ur also right that basic research is just like a wild goose chase."
It is when I continuously come up empty-handed. No so-called "expert", no scientist, no doctor, no anyone has been able to define their terms in an objective way (that would support transgenderism). You don't believe I've looked hard enough. I don't believe you're truly confident there's a good answer; otherwise, you would've given it yourself.
"its a mystery how misgendering every trans person you meet-"
Not possible, on your worldview. So long as you fail to give an objective definition for terms like "man" or "woman", no one can ever be correct or incorrect in using these terms. Ironically, it's only those of us who reject modern gender theory would could accuse others of misgendering us in a coherent way.
"and denying their identity might fuck them up,"
Someone disagreeing with your beliefs should never mess you up...
