"It is about getting you to set aside your ability to reason and use common-sense and to accept their version of the truth, regardless of how absurd their truth is."

"Because if they can get you to acquiesce and mentally kneel in submission to something as asinine as swapping genders, they can get you to believe ANYTHING."

Exactly. No objective, universal truth leads to “anti-racial math” where “2 + 2 = anything you want.”

At root, it heralds the end of civilization.

How come the men’s teams don’t have any biological women?

Option 1 - NCAA League A: 50% men and 50% women. If the women dressed like they do in pole vaulting, beach volleyball or lingerie football, mens' performance might suffer. The solution is to dress all male players in the same outfits.

Option 2 - NCAA League B: Follow the racial makeup of all of America:

I'm not quite sure how to handle the 0.2% of "Some other race," though. That chart bugs me a lot because Hispanics get mentioned THREE times even though they are 1/6 of the population. Why should they get three mentions? It just isn't FAIR!

Do you really think the NCAA wants to lose all those states, with the prestige and revenue they represent?

They don't plan to lose them.

They plan for them to submit - which they will.

this is exactly my thoughts on the issue of banning men from playing women’s sports

That "issue" is of no importance. And that is not even the issue.

The issue, as masterfully scripted by George Orwell through the mouth of his O'Brien, is this:

"The pain flowed into Winston's body. The needle must be at seventy, seventy-five. He had shut his eyes this time. He knew that the fingers were still there, and still four. All that mattered was somehow to stay alive until the spasm was over. He had ceased to notice whether he was crying out or not. The pain lessened again. He opened his eyes. O'Brien had drawn back the lever.
'How many fingers, Winston?'
'Four. I suppose there are four. I would see five if I could. I am trying to see five.'
'Which do you wish: to persuade me that you see five, or really to see them?'
'Really to see them.'
'Again,' said O'Brien.

Perhaps the needle was eighty -- ninety. Winston could not intermittently remember why the pain was happening. Behind his screwed-up eyelids a forest of fingers seemed to be moving in a sort of dance, weaving in and out, disappearing behind one another and reappearing again. He was trying to count them, he could not remember why. He knew only that it was impossible to count them, and that this was somehow due to the mysterious identity between five and four. The pain died down again. When he opened his eyes it was to find that he was still seeing the same thing. Innumerable fingers, like moving trees, were still streaming past in either direction, crossing and recrossing. He shut his eyes again.

'How many fingers am I holding up, Winston?'
'I don't know. I don't know. You will kill me if you do that again. Four, five, six -- in all honesty I don't know.'

'Better,' said O'Brien.

It is essential - to them - that you not only confess with your mouth that a surgeon can change a man into a woman, but that YOU YOURSELF BELIEVE IT IS POSSIBLE.

Because if you believe THAT is possible, then you will believe anything.

I think every state in the SEC is a redstate....removing the SEC from college sports would be catastrophic for the NCAA and the NCAA knows this.....

SEC need to get together and establish a new ruling organization to replace NCAA. No reason for them to follow NCAA.

Even if that happened, the corporations would ruin it faster than you could say 'Jack Robinson.'

Just for the record, the US Woman’s gold medal soccer team lost to a boys middle school all star team.

This Noem woman took on the world with her Covid policies, but got bullied by the NCAA?

Why does the NCAA want men to play women’s sports so badly?

Update...

NCAA Caves, Will Allow States Who Place Restrictions on Trans Athletes to Host Events

So much for principle, eh?

Note to NCAA, pro sports, TV networks: Still not watching.
