    First they came for the Trans people, but I didn’t speak up, because I wasn’t Trans.

      You know I had a crazy thought yesterday… I’ve gone in the bathroom a bunch of times and never once have I tried looking at anybody else’s genitalia… Why the hell does anybody care about this?

      Edit: I mean not accepting people for being people everybody should just be cool with each other… What the government is doing is beyond evil and we need to do everything in our power to stop it.

        Because they think nothing through. It doesn’t occur to them when they say trans women will rape girls in bathrooms that cis women can rape girls too. It also doesn’t occur to them that forcing everyone to use the changing rooms of their biological sex because “women are uncomfortable with a man changing next to them” means that they will be changing next to people who sure as hell look like men what with the no breasts and the beard. I’m guessing that will make them a hell of a lot more uncomfortable.

        You probably also don’t watch far right media all day. Fox News and it’s spawn have been fear mongering trans people almost non-stop for years now. That’s the entire disconnect from the right and normal people

          And don’t forget conflating trans people and drag queens.

          Ever do a drag show? Even if you’re cishet?

          Sorry, you’re trans now.

          I had the unfortunate experience of working with newsmax doing Spicer and Co… I’m well aware of the paradigm of hate these groups propagate needlessly…

            Yeah I mean to say it’s not your sole source of information. I’m sorry you had to go through that
