Biden declares "Transgender Day of Visibility"...
And it just happens to fall on the most holy day for Christians.
If that's not a direct slap in the face to Christians, I don't know what is.

The thread, or Biden's campaign? LOL
I would say he just handed the election to Trump.

He never had it in the beginning he was skipping a beat in 2020 .
He told the whole country that the Baltimore bridge was crossed by him many a time both by car and train .Not a train bridge around for 20 miles. He has no clue where Baltimore is .
I think he found hunters pipe and draggin hard on it .If 80 million voted for that nut then they deserve every once of that idiot.There's a strong reason Obama never moved far away ,that guy knew darn well Biden was short half a snickers .
Million bucks says he losses the easter egg hunt.

Looks like the day started in 2009.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intern..._of_Visibility
Looks like it’s to draw awareness
Looks like it worked as I hadn’t heard about it until it got promoted on here
So…

Yes not enough people are aware of the problem as it’s only in our face 24/7/365.

You guys are forgetting one major thing: Biden is a vegetable, he does not say a thing without his handlers. This crap is produced by the Democrats and puppet Biden just opens his mouth when the cord is pulled….

As dumb as the day is - this is nothing more than fabricated 'rage'. Like Sundance said, it's been around since 2009.
If not for this post, nobody would know or care. Thanks to the internet though, people (on both sides) get fired up about issues that just aren't important.

If he came to power and rejected woke ideology and instead adopted common sense around…
We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.
Pursued protecting democracy as the best governance model and not capitulating to Russia and China.
Protected freedom of speech while addressing false information.
Doing more to secure online fraud and scams.
Distancing from the far left and instead hugging the center.
…it would of been better.
When you watch Tv and he comes on I swear it’s like an episode of the walking dead. Put the fanatics on the Republicans and Democrats in the background and they have a new zombie series.
Then finding a better and younger leader to step up. Could have been far worse with Bernie and that Kennedy is a nut job.
Should be an interesting election in the US. I just want the best US president for Canada who right now is Trump but not by a huge margin.

Was there a very apparent effort to erase major Christian holidays in 2013?
Perhaps that has something to do with people taking notice?

That's an interesting take on it.
Please point out, in the document you linked, the wording meant to erase the pre-existing holiday. We'll wait...

Lol.
If you don't see it all around, you've got blinders on.
Merry Christmas being replaced with "Happy Holidays", Happy Easter being replaced with "Happy March Holiday", the rainbow.....
I could go on, but I'm guessing I'm I'm wasting my time.
Happy Easter!

This is one of those things that's just not a thing.
Every year there's an article about it to stir up some controversy, but I've never once seen someone out in public losing their mind about someone wishing them a merry christmas or anything like that.
Are there some cranky Karens out there, and the odd school that ceases to have a nativity scene at its christmas pageant - sure.
But by and large, most people and establishments aren't like that. It's a non-issue, outside of some internet forums and memes on social media.

There are 2 public Christian schools in Edmonton.
Last year the alphabet people held a protest outside of each. Keep in mind these schools are K-12.
What were they protesting?
They were protesting that the Christian program wasn't promoting their values.
So no, it isn't just on internet forums.

I didn’t even notice nor hear about this until it came up on here.
Sometimes people just fall into the trap of promoting an agenda… whether they realize it or not.
In this instance… the government didn’t pick the date. Why the date was picked? Who knows but the initial organizer.
If dates need to be owned… I’ll have to claim a few dates for things near and dear to me before they all get snapped up. Is there any left?
That all said… it’s people freaking out that gives value and attention to any organization or special interest groups date deemed to be special.
https://www.nationaldaycalendar.com/
People are screaming about this one… however how many of you are protesting all the other special claims?
Today is also
National Crayon Day
National Prom Day
Easter various days
National Clams on the Half Shell Day
National Bunsen Burner Day
National Tater Day
Who cares about other opinions. If Easter is what you care about then great. Enjoy and share with whoever else you wish.
Some may want to light a Bunsen burner and say a quick appreciate note… but who cares.
There is so much rigid and aggressive polarization and drive to divide Canadians.. its getting so tiring. This thread deep down really is just angry thread when most people are indifferent, care less or oblivious.
Now back to my crayons… I need to celebrate.

Yes Biden is a moron. He panders just like our very own beloved Trudeau virtue signaling as he feeds into every woke, activist and special interest sometimes at the expense of another special interest group. Who is offended by this? who cares what these guys proclaim? How does that hurt YOU?
But as long as he's an equal offender, I could care less what day is proclaimed to be on what day really ... I could care less - it doesn't offend me one bit as I am a sensible person with common sense.
.... after all are we, in this thread, saying that one group (a specific religious group) should take precedence over a different religious group? Or that a religious group (which is a special interest group) should take precedence over another special interest group????
Maybe you think one group is stupid, immoral, etc... but maybe they think the same thing of your group. Who cares ..... we have freedom (in the US and Canada) and we should value that fact.
Seems hypocritical if you think about the point some are arguing here.
We are not about to change the WOKE. We complain about how they get offended by everything, yet here we are, being offended ...... lol

Anyone with a clue would just pick a different day, there are plenty left that aren't already special days for many people. Picking a day that is already special to so many people, is just plain stupidity.
