"Day one!!!" I'm not even LGBTQ, but that's the Republican Nominee saying his main priority is to hurt minorities. For no gain, just spite. If you know someone with "Conservative" tendencies, you owe it to everyone in this country to talk to them about this...
Here we go again and again on this repeat episode of Hold Your Nose And Vote For Joe Where as Joe is enacting and upholding protections for the LGBTQ community, Trump is only too happy to repeal that shit so fast. Not only that, but big boi Trump also has alluded to glassing Iran, which is way further than Biden has escalated towards. Biden is sadly, our current cold comfort here. We're stuck between a rock and a slightly more malleable corrupt WW3 causing dipshit rock
I don't get it. Well I do. But I've yet to have a satisfactory conservative response to the following :
Intersex people exist. That is, at least 1 out of every 1,750 babies are born with both sexual organs. Therefore by their existence we know that there is a blurred line between genders and those people exist there. Even if I go along with them that transgender behavior is a mental illness (it's not, this is just a thought experiment), what exactly do they propose we do about intersex individuals who are literally neither male nor female?
1 out of 1,750 would put the intersex population in the United States at approximately 194,000 individuals. For reference, that would be about 10% of the population of Nebraska or Idaho. That's how many people I am discussing and who seem to always be left out of the conversation.
If you are against a child taking a puberty suppressing drug they want to take at age 10, but are ok with tearing off the genitals (not circumcision, the whole thing) of a day old baby, you aren't against transition, you are against children's autonomy.
What the hell makes him think he'll be president again? If he loses the election he won't be president. If he wins the election Biden can just refuse to leave office. It's legal because everything a president does is legal. There is litterally a case before the SC where Trump is making that argument.
I can't believe we exist in such a bastardized backwards timeline where someone like Donald Trump can be lording over us again. If not for my wife I'd be taking my retail related boxcutter to my throat
Hahahahah bitch you gonna die soon, there's only so much stimulants a 77 year old cheeseburger addict can take before that decrepit clogged heart of yours goes boom.
Sadly, if he doesn't, his many fascist benefactors will. The transgender community exists in an existential horror where a genocidal fascist movement slowly builds itself against us, but it's being led by some of the most idiotic repugnant people who have ever lived. One Google search can immediately dismantle 99% of the nonsense they say about us, but it doesn't matter because no one who supports them cares.
So...I'm a Christian and still can't for the life of me understand the appeal of these vicious, hateful positions.
I'm even pretty direct-to-the-bible in my theology, thus the ideas that we are "fearfully and wonderfully made," and that God doesn't make mistakes, lead me to believe that choosing a different gender than you were born with is probably missing out on God's best for us.
Yet despite some common ground with the "religious right", I'm still to this day completely at a loss as to how you would get from literally anything you find in the bible to encouraging or applauding the removal of protections for very at-risk persons.
I promise, you can not read the Bible as a serious undertaking and arrive where these people have.
We can't rely on voting. This person and many like him are inhuman and hateful and that right there should disqualify you from holding office, period.
Voting is just being able to influence panicky, problematic, fearful people to get hateful people to win. Nothing is going to be fixed in the long run if we keep allowing these people to hold office. We need a set standard for people that have respect, intelligence, dignity, and compassion for human beings of all kinds to be able to hold office. Voting is just going to make things worse and even if it happens to temporarily fix things, it will eventually swing back the other way.
This country is just inviting fascism by letting the common person have a say in how things are ran.
