The minute you can define what "marxism" is without googling it and then accurately describe a single thing that I have ever said that would fit me being a Marxist or "anti family" I'll be happy to interract with you. Until then bother someone else.

All I could think of was Dale Earnhardt Incorporated.
It means something like diversity, equality and inclusive or something.
Diversity, Equality, Includion.

With the internet, most print media was/is bound to fail. It's probably been 30-40 years since I bought a SI. Like some of y'all, I bought it when Alabama was on the cover or when the swimsuit edition came out, but that was only so I could see the different photography styles

If I’m not going to have a convo with a person it doesn’t matter whether I use an ignore function or not.
I don’t have to listen to anybody whether you or anybody else thinks I’m a wimp, pussy, etc.
I listen to lots of people that disagree with me
Nope.
I asked you first.
You initially called my correct assessment of the political angle "nonsense".
My question above is a followup to my original question, which you have failed to answer.
Clearly you are blind to the adaptation of Marxism in the left's identity politics agenda. Pitting classes against classes. Perpetual victimhood of "the oppressed". Trannies are "oppressed". Gays are "oppressed". No, be gay and trans all you want. Just don't cram it down our throats and sexualize and groom our children with drag queen story hour events or pride parades with dudes walking around with fake dicks strapped all over their body or a g-string that their junk is falling out of.
Tell me, good sir... Do you think a straight, white dude could walk around downtown in any city with his junk hanging out of a g-string on any given day?
You know the answer. He'd be arrested on the spot.
The Marxists are pitting all these "oppressed" groups AGAINST traditional family values.
That air, is a FACT.
THAT is anti-family.
And you support that?
How do YOU think that's OK?
You say it's "not harming anyone" but it IS.
It's harming our children. Tell me you think it's OK for a Marxist "queer" mother to indoctrinate her young boy from the time he can walk and chemically castrate him with puberty blockers and then sign off on him getting his weiner mutilated and inverted inside his gut.
You say it is, and you'll identify yourself as a part of the problem.

My Brother has the first issue. Huge Eddie Matthews fan. Probably has been a Braves fan longer than anyone in the South. Was a fan when they were in Boston.
"Nearly 80 years later, that first issue, with Milwaukee Braves star Eddie Mathews at bat and New York Giants catcher Wes Westrum behind the plate on the cover, still has a remarkable number of surviving copies."
Augie Donatelli was the Ump. And he should have said "Nearly 70 years later".

Trinket or Treasure: Sports Illustrated cover could be worth hundreds - Tompkins Weekly
Recently I was meeting with Tompkins Weekly publisher, Todd Mallinson, he also serves as general manager for ESPN Ithaca radio. He showed me a framed copy of the first issue of Sports Illustrated hanging on his office wall and told me that his father had given it to him about 20 years ago. He...

The E is Equity, not Equality. Gargantuan difference. The left demands action on disparate impact, as opposed to disparate treatment. You can treat everyone the same, but if a protected group is marginalized because they are treated the same as others - but have a different outcome - that's disparate impact. It's an incredible reach that has been normalized by Federal agencies. We'll see what the Chevron ruling does to it.
Yes you are spot on!!!!
Equity is virtually the opposite equality…
Well said….

The left demands people be treated equally is what you mean.
You know how the Chevron ruling is going to go and what it’s going to do it…..a right wing court….doesn’t take much intelligence to understand

You are reading him wrong. He's not that off the bridge.
He's hanging on...about to tip over. But he's no Josh Moon. (I think that is what his name is.)

Trying not to get political? Putting a freakin tranny on the cover Is not political. It’s gross, I don’t care that at first I thought “she” was hot. The point is, si as it was is dead.
Good day sir!
I’m damn tired of politically correct crap. Getting a Ribbon for participation .
Stand on your own merit, I don’t care if your Mexican, White, black, gelato or whether you go to church or not or what language you speak.
I choose my friends by what is in your head and heart. Are you a good person, friend, brother, sister or cousin?

If we take two people and put them at the same starting line...one advances over the other, that's two people being treated equally.
If we take the loser of that race, promote them to the position based on equity, that's not equality.
I think Sam Britton is a good example here. He was put in his position because of equity. It was a check mark. There were/are more qualified people for that position: equality.
Merit based promotions versus mindset based promotions...

I understand this; to a degree. I should have studied psychology when I was in school. I have an innate, almost obsessive, need to ask questions about why and how people I know think. It's been my experience in life that often, the best way to find that out, is to also find what "triggers" a person.
In conversations @ElephantStomp and I have had, I've cautioned on the use of words. They are so easily tossed about; Hilter, Communist, in this cast Marxism.
I don't think that's the right word, but it does fit; to a degree. The BLM riots in 2020 were an example of Marxism: we saw a class of people demonstrating because they felt injustice from the ruling class.
As to the magazine cover. Can we chalk this up to a horrible business decision? Putting a trans on the cover of the swim suit issue was a direct statement to people who have been buying the swimsuit issue publications. SI, just like Bud Light, didn't read the room.
