Abraham Lincoln once asked an audience how many legs a dog has if you count the tail as a leg. When they answered “five,” Lincoln told them that the answer was four. The fact that you called the tail a leg did not make it a leg.

Cute, but WRONG. Lincoln did not say "count the tail as a leg." He said "call the tail a leg."
Now it makes sense. If you ask me to count the tail as a leg for the sake of your argument, then say I shouldnt have, that's just being semantical and not really a good thought experiment. You didnt give me a choice, you just undermined your own premise you asked me to follow just to "get" me.
As they say, a fool can never accurately quote a wise man. Because he translates what he hears into what he can understand.
Not calling OP a fool, just calling Abe wise.
You can get a good look at t-bone by sticking your head up the butchers ass....

Apply this thinking to the trans phenomenon.
Bigot!

Truth Exists.
Objective truth > subjective truth
The MSM doesn't need you to get on board with the Marxist revolution, they just need you too scared to say anything against it.
And it’s working. They’ve made it so that we can’t speak up in the work place, at social events, even our churches have to avoid being forceful on any issues the leftists care about. You don’t change minds by driving dissent underground, you just lose the ability to keep track of it.
Lincoln then went on to describe how dissenting newspapers could be shut down and journalists could be arrested.
We could all learn something from Honest Abe.
So what you’re saying is I’m not an attack helicopter?
In other words, there's only two genders.
In 2016 during the debates, when responding to a question about whether or not it was acceptable for politicians to be "two-faced," Killary said:
In a sense, she called Lincoln two-faced, while simultaneously agreeing with the premise..
Little did she know, Lincoln had already responded to that same attack, no doubt anticipating the first female presidential candidate, a Democrat, invoking his words so imprecisely.
What does that mean for my four-legged dog who identifies as a five-legged dog?
Honest Abe would have been a great shitposter, I'd bet.
What a class act!
This history researcher says he used a calf, not a dog, in the analogy.

If this gets around they'll definitely tear down his statues and throw away their pennies. Native Americans are against tearing down Mount Rushmore. Their young men would not be able to repel down and piss in the Presidents mouths.
What if you count a man's flayed penis after tucked it inside his body as one vagina? How many vaginas does this man now have?
