How many people have been killed in the name of God?

Low IQ take. The company didn't discriminate. It accepted the contract then reneged based on supposed death threats. It's also important to point out the billboard had Mr. Rogers feel good content not hate or death threats toward a group or individual.
Lastly, why is Twitter crossed out? The owner changed but censorship and discrimination is arguably even worse. The targets just changed. As Bari Weiss of Twitter Files said of Elon Musk: Different boss, same management style.

But I thought it was OK for companies to discriminate on whose message they host or present?
See Facebook, YouTube, Amazon, Twitter, Google...

The sign doesn't mention any gender or political identity. You're going off on an irrelevant tangent.
But I'm happy to talk about what you want to talk about since it seems to really upset you. First, I think it's important to make a distinction between sex and gender. There really only is 3 sexes. Male, female, and intersex (hermaphrodite) which is very rare. Gender is not the same as sex. It's more of an identity or personality. There are more masculine females and feminine males. Some people are asexual and androgynous. As far as I'm concerned saying there's 2 or 3 genders is fine with me. Male, female, and androgynous/asexual/intersex.
I don't believe there are a bunch of genders and find the idea silly. But you're using a common partisan smear tactic of taking a fringe person or position and trying to smear 82 million people as having those beliefs. I don't think most people think about or care about gender. Personally, I don't care. If I come across a goofball in real life that believes in 70 genders, which I never have, I'd just roll my eyes and keep it moving. These are not big problems to me. I care about ensuring people with illnesses have access to medical care at a reasonable cost. Transgender people are a fraction of a percent of the population. I want them to live free of discrimination but apart from that I don't think about them.

What field of work are you and your fiancé in? You should search for job market things first so you can afford the location you choose. People try to move to areas with good schools and the price to live in the area is usually higher. If you’re both working fully remote, then it doesn’t matter at all. Zillow has a school rating system. (it’s not always accurate, but helps when searching as large of an area as you are) If you’re looking for hiking and outdoor activities, look around the Appalachian trail and along rivers like the Susquehanna. North/West of Harrisburg is pretty good for things like that and you can make the truck to the ‘Burg for important things or even work. There’s a lot of state jobs in the area.

Really? Dems need new victims so they invent 190 genders, and those that disagree are Nazi racists that should be destroyed.
You can’t see it tho it’s obvious.

One of these underground coal seam fires was raised several times during the survey work for the giant Williams pipeline several years ago. FERC still allowed the pipeline to be built over that area. https://dailyyonder.com/gas-pipeline-proposed-mine-fire-area/2014/11/19/

Reply to comment by artificialavocado in Question about transferring a vehicle title to the buyer by Dr_Killinger_00
Yeah I'm not exactly sure what the rules are, just know the places around me have been okay with it.
I'm kind of surprised that the dealer couldn't do the title transfer for you. I've seen small, backwoods used car dealers that could do the title and registration. I've been told becoming a notary is pretty easy.

We were in Centralia Saturday and the steam/smoke vents are no longer venting. It was sad to see the highway all covered up with tailings too…

Don't respond to this asshole anymore, he doesn't actually care. He thinks he's "owning the libs" but he's just a dumb asshole.

I always heard growing up it was (slowly) heading west toward Mt Carmel, but maybe that’s just something people say.

Republicans are now literally against inclusion of ‘empathy and kindness’ in school curricula because that’s some socialist shit and ‘not every person deserves kidness.’ The American Way to them is just being a violent, raging, bigoted asshole.

Seems anti-identity to me. It's anti-identity politics. It's saying we welcome anyone and everyone. You seem to have a rabid right-wing reactionary disposition.

I agree in general, but can't imagine anywhere in Exton that could be considered "walking distance" to much. It's great if you have a car.

The billboard owner and company knew the message.. the article make it sounds like the landowner was threatened. They seem to be 3 different people.

I go to a hunting camp out near Barclay. I pass though Dushore and Canton seem like nice little one-stop-light towns. Towanda is a bit bigger, but still seems ok. That's my perspective from the truck and occasional run to get supplies. How are those towns to settle in?
