If insulting other people is "being civil", then I think I now know why the english-speaking internet is so toxic and why english-speaking democracies are so incredibly fucked.
Because Black lives matter, because Asian lives matter, because Hispanic lives matter. This country is a melting pot of cultures and ideas and if you don’t have someone that represents you, then you're not likely to be represented.
If FDR would have listened to the people, the US would have never joined WW2. If Johnson had listed to the people, we would have not passed the Civil Rights Act.
There's gotta be a term for this kind of group...
Like murder of ravens, or flock of seagulls.
A chud of fascist pricks here to assert control over women for psychotic reasons.
Forgive the ignorance, but are regular OBGYN appointments a thing in the US? From the media I’ve consumed it appears so. I know people with actual gynaecological issues like endometriosis, and even they find the idea of regular checkups without a cause weird.
Generally starting around 25 you're encouraged to get annual checkups. They check for cervical cancer and do a quick breast exam and then send you on your way. It's also a time to go over any irregularities of the past year and to discuss birth control and the like.
Some people also see gynecologists as their regular doctor, going to them for general health checkups.
The US used to have such prevalent hpv rates that annual Pap smears for everyone with a cervix was a better call than testing for hpv. Even today you have to specifically request an hpv test when getting an sti test. The hpv vaccine seems to be changing that, but speaking as someone who had a breakthrough case (fortunately it was a strain known to be low risk for cancer) I still encourage people to not rely solely on it, but also to definitely get the vaccine.
The other reason is that for a long time the gyno was a lot of women’s only regular healthcare visit and it’s still not rare for them to be the most trusted physician in a woman’s life.
My health insurance gives me a discount if I perform a set of preventative-maintenance tasks. They want me to get a pap smear every 3 years, so I guess that's the standard "how often to see a gyno if you have no health concerns regarding gyno issues" schedule.
Edit: I also have a regular doctor I'm meant to see every year.

Not a very diverse group are they?
Some of them have hair, others don't. Quite diverse
Just the token light colored jacket guy every friend group needs
He's also the 1 dark skinned person in the group, so they're obviously not racist. They even have 2 women, so they're not sexist!
“He does math.”
Uh, the's a red tie, a black tie, a striped one, and no tie. How can you say this!
Some of their good friends wear bow ties!!!
GOP (Gyno-Or-Penis) party.
No, not really.
But why would that matter?
Well diversity in the gene pool certainly matters but clearly this is a lesson that was lost on your family generations ago.
dang, I didn't know rule 1 "be civil" became rule 1 "insult everyone"
Clearly I'm not paying attention.
He was civil. He didn't try to overthrow the government and kill someone. He also wasn't on Epstein's plane. Does that count?

Unlike the non-English-speaking world, where fascists are never voted into office?
You literally voted one into office in 2016 and he's running again this year you dunce.
Sure, the guy who said he's going to be a dictator, clear out the "parasites" from the country, clean the political system is in fact not a fascist
You're delusional
I guess we know what Neo N of hos user name means now.
"Ha, he said that he speaks German, so he must be from Germany! I am so smart!"

Yeah, but that's what advisors are for.
Or Gleichstellungsbeauftragte as we say in german.
The person you elect has to make decisions in a similar way that the majority of the population would. That's the whole idea behind it.

We call on a leader to lead, not follow.
My colleagues did by sneaking it into an unrelated piece of legislation, but I'm no snitch.
On their way to not tip and verbally abuse food service workers after church
He said he was checking out his future plane. Probably seeing if the furniture is his type.

A group of children.
An occasion of post-deplorables.
Congress or congregation work.

Vance like 'omw to steal your couch'
Creepy fucking weirdos
I have an Ashley reclining couch that I love. It's super comfy and is perfectly molded to cradle my ass.
But it's brown, so Vance might deport it instead? Or maybe because it's so suave and sensual, it's "one of the good ones?"

That works for me! Could be worse. They could be after our baseball bats or something.
Speaking of weird, what's with that outfit from the dude in the orange tie?
That's Scott. He microwaves fish for lunch in the office.
He's the token dark skinned friend. Gotta make sure his outfit is unique so people notice him and don't think you're racist.
