Because Freddie has no history of turning things up a notch in the postseason. :rolleyes:

2022-23: 2.48 GAA, .903 SV% in 34 regular season games.
1.83 GAA, .927 SV% in 9 postseason games.

Also outperformed his regular season stats in the postseason in 2016 and 2020 with almost identical numbers in 2015, 2017, and 2019.

If you ask me what goalies I want ready to go for the postseason, my answer is Andersen and Kochetkov. Then see who is hot.

I think calling them 'marginalized" isnt quite fair at this point. Gay people and gay culture is everywhere now in our society.

This isn't exactly the 1950s anymore. Right now gay people have exactly the same rights as everyone else, can marry, can adopt, even have kids whatever.

I dont see the need more it anymore except to rub in peoples faces. And that is why you are starting to see a backlash on the internet.
Dude, our LT Governor thinks lgbtq folks are filth and are bringing the nation to hells gates.

A heterosexual couple reading to children in the library - No one raises a fuss about it

Someone a part of the LGBTQ+ community reading to children in the library - Armed militia show up and it becomes national news

You're kidding yourself if you think the gay community is treated the same as everyone else.

That is really disingenuous, and I'm sure you know it. Nobody would care if regular gay people were reading stories to kids. In fact- nobody would know.

It is freaks and degenerates cavorting in front of children in garish and sexualized costumes that is the issue, many times also reading inappropriate material.

material to boot. The gays I know in no way shape or form wish to be associated with these people.

I see nothing sexualized about that costume. It looks like a dress that a princess might wear, and given that there appears to be a few young girls dressed up as princesses in that crowd, I imagine that's what the reader was going for.

And based off the titles of those books, it looks like books that discuss non-traditional families and going against gender-normative roles (if "Families, Families, Families" and "Not all Princesses Dress in Pink" is any indication of the context of those books). Those are inappropriate material to you?

Oh? You like these better?

All I can say is that the T's and the Q's aren't doing the LGBs any favors.

just stop trying to convince them man.

IDC about gay people doing whatever gay stuff. Who cares what they do? But I do care about changing kids genders and exposing them to shit like this. And SHIT it is. I care about the gaslighting and alinskyism their community engages in. It's literally the bible to many of them.

The raging in your face gay people are a whole different culture than the couple gay people I work with. And I even work in the same facility as two trans male to female people. THEY both hate this shit too. They just want to be normal and live as normal people.

To quote the one guy who is in my same group and married to a dude. How do people expect to be treated the same as others and normal when the way they act is a HUGE outlier and not remotely norm. Having parades where you dance around in leather and make out in the street isn't normal. It's provocative, and they get a provocative response.

Conversely, the two trans people - one is a libretarian type, the other kind of center left. The dude in my group is a conservative. I talk to him daily. There's a political rift in the gay community, just like there is in many other communities. And its ONE side of that spectrum that does shit like this.

Just like in the gun community you have the leave me a lone types, and the ones who want to OC and AR15 at the local 4th of july parade. The provocateurs ruin it for everyone.

Yeah, I'm not trying to suggest that sort of behavior is the norm. Just trying to say THAT is what people are protesting against, not normal gay people.

I think this country has made great strides in accepting gay people and treating them like human beings, which wasn't the case when I was a kid and people would go out of their way to harass them and freaked out about "Don't ask Don't Tell". And that people should be satisfied that was accomplished, instead of believing that an endless campaign of constant activism is needed to solidify those gains. Because IMO that campaign is doing damage to those gains by inspiring backlash.

Look, alls I'm saying is take the W.

We should have taken the W in Afghanistan in 2003. Bro, it was over. Instead we had to push it. And then after many long painful years had to eat a big L.
When State Governments stop trying to actively prevent Gay and Lesbian couples from getting married via a CIVIL contract in the name of "religious freedom" I'll take the W.

When those same State Governments stop trying to actively prevent those same couples from adopting children into a loving home and get them out of a broken foster system, I'll take the W.
