The RIGHT & MAGA are flat out STUCK in a world that once was or their version of.
weird (adj.)
c. 1400, "having power to control fate," from wierd (n.), from Old English wyrd "fate, chance, fortune; destiny; the Fates," literally "that which comes," from Proto-Germanic *wurthiz (source also of Old Saxon wurd, Old High German wurt "fate," Old Norse urðr "fate, one of the three Norns"), from PIE *wert- "to turn, to wind," (source also of German werden, Old English weorðan "to become"), from root *wer- (2) "to turn, bend." For the sense development from "turning" to "becoming," compare phrase turn into "become."
The sense of "uncanny, supernatural" developed from Middle English use of weird sisters for the three Fates or Norns (in Germanic mythology), the goddesses who controlled human destiny. They were portrayed as odd or frightening in appearance, as in "Macbeth" (and especially in 18th and 19th century productions of it), which led to the adjectival meaning "odd-looking, uncanny" (1815); "odd, strange, disturbingly different" (1820). Also see Macbeth. Related: Weirdly; weirdness.
also from c. 1400

There's a difference between quirky weird and demanding to see a child's genitals so they can play rec league softball. You guys are the latter. And the fact that so many on the Right are crying about being called weird certainly seems like the arrow has hit the mark.

Progress always needed to happen, I can agree with you, but we have crossed a line where insanity is being protected, promoted and enabled.
For example the left saying pedophiles' need to be relabeled as MAP(Minor Attracted People) and added to the LGBT umbrella for protection. This is the next moral hurdle being tested.
Now that is really WIERD, but trying to stop it, any normal sane person would try to do.
The left is projecting what is weird and what is normal as reversed.
Hurricane Katrina damaged the city of New Orleans in what seems like biblical proportions. Some say the human suffering alone could be a part of God's plan.
Reverend Franklin Graham, son of Reverend Billy Graham, suggests the city was targeted because of the city's sinful reputation.

Were your kids' genitals checked to make sure they were in the right girl/boy group?
She was responding to the debate sparked at Old Dominion University earlier this month, after word spread around campus that one of its professors, Allyn Walker, had released a book over the summer titled A Long, Dark Shadow: Minor-Attracted People and Their Pursuit of Dignity. The book, according to its blurb, “offers a crucial account of the lived experiences of this hidden population”. In reality, all it offers is a disconcerting defence of paedophilia.
Walker, whose preferred pronouns are they/them, is concerned for the well-being of ‘minor-attracted people’ or MAPs, the new preferred term for individuals attracted to children. When asked about the use of MAPs in a recent interview, Walker responded: “I think it is important to use terminology for groups that members of that group want others to use for them. It is less stigmatising than other words like paedophile.” In other words: let’s not hurt the paedophiles’ feelings.

f one person supports pedophile anything — it’s going to be exploited by the Right as the entire Left supports it. Which is bogus. Minors can not consent.
Every group has its extremists & wackos.
That’s kind of how it works annee. If you vote for someone that supports immoral and unethical insanity then you fall under the same umbrella. Same as anyone that supports the democrat party whom supports open borders, which enables people to traffic women and children into the sex and labor trade. By default you’re going to be labeled a pos for supporting the people allowing it to continue and get worse. It amazes me that the left can’t comprehend and grasp that reality.

Granted im in my 50's so maybe things have changed, but every sports league I ever played in required a sports physical that left little to the imagination.
If trans people dont have to get a sports physical that seems problematic to me.

This is a perfect example of stupid leftists parroting media talking points completely devoid of logical thought processes.
Every kid in the US for at least the last 50 years has had to get a physical examination before being allowed to participate in organized sports.
Thanks for demonstrating exactly what the OP is about.
I was in organized children's sports within that time range and that is a load of BS.
Ignoring this is weird, supporting it is even weirder, to get back on topic.
