Amazing how the party of "freedom" chooses to ignore the nazi obsession of the shooter and instead focus on the gender identity of the shooter. How very "woke" of them. However, let's be real here, they just want to make us all mad about this. They wouldn't go through with this as they don't really have the means to do it on a federal level. This is the issue with governance by trolling; It's p...

The Right is never bluffing about the people they want to hurt.

I am a cis gender woman.

I just found out one of my prescriptions is for a drug that is also used for gender-affirming care.

It made me so angry. I didn’t know much about that kind of care. It wasn’t my business and didn’t affect me. A patients care is between them and their doctor. Now, that I actually know what is prescribed, I realize how much stupider the whole debate is.

Just let doctors do their job. If a legitimate doctor prescribes a healthy patient something, it’s not any of our god damn business. Leave trans people alone and let them live their lives.

One of the first groups the Nazis targeted even before the night of broken glass were the LGBT. They're foaming at the mouth with rage about the LGBT, and they operate on a last-hired-first-fired basis. They'll work their way up to the Ls, Gs, and Bs eventually.

And white liberals will sit on their asses and allow it.

Are they going to ban balding treatments for cismen too? That's gender affirming care.

ok fuckhead, but make it include all gender-affirming care for everyone, trans or not. no boner pills, no hair transplants, no leg-lengthening, no plastic surgery to change your appearance. be hypocritical more you rat fuck.

Hypocrisy is a feature of their worldview, not a bug. Them getting excluded from so-called "common morals" are just signifiers of power.

They're like the cruellest of school bullies, that's why they're also accusing of ordinary trans and gay people with being pedophiles, while their own are being involved in child sex trafficking. The cruellest thing any school bully can do is convincing the teachers that hitting back was worse than them hitting first, while continuing to torment their classmates.

By his logic, if one trans person shooting folks should make all trans medicine be banned, the ridiculous amount of white male mass shooters should see all white dudes put into prison camps at birth.

Buddy, I don't like the culture of ragebait that the Internet has fomented either, but this isn't that. This is an LGBTQ magazine reporting on an influential figure's intentions to disenfranchise every trans person in the US. The news in its ideal form exists to tell you about important things that are happening, not to balance itself to make you feel better about the world (and things generall...

And nobody is going to do jack shit abut it, so why waste the time getting pissed about it? All this is for is to make it people angry for nothing.

Are you fucking kidding me? Evil people are publicly stating their planned intentions to harm people and you’re asking why we don’t ignore it to focus on fucking sunshine and rainbows? Sticking your head in the sand will not protect trans people from one of the most influential policy makers in the US.

Choosing not to get brow beaten 24 hours a day is not sticking my head in the sand. If you like being pissed off all day, by all means- scream this shit at as many people that will tolerate it.

I’m just not a fan of standing around being pissed off while those the could stop it- won’t.

Not only that, but us straight, white dudes do so many shootings that despite there really not being that many trans people they’re still under-represented. It’s not like there were only five shootings and so 20% was by a trans person, there were so many that it’s less than a percent.

It’s not just the flat numbers, but the percentages, too.

And they don’t care at all about intersex newborns being ’corrected’ to conform to whichever binary a doctor decides and totally without the person’s consent, nor infant boys having their most sensitive part cut off for 100% cosmetic reasons, again without their consent.

No, apparently consenting adults getting informed medical care is the problem.

The Heritage Foundation’s morals are completely backwards.

Trouble is, if you take this away from trans people, some will kill themselves.

And if you take it away from angry white men, you just get angrier white men.

There is a correlation between Christian indoctrination and political violence. I think we should outlaw that. Exposing your children to religion is traumatic and should be considered child abuse.

Actually? Any cosmetic or medical action to augment someone's identity as either man or woman.

To a transphobic bigot? Anything that deviates from strict gender alignment with sex assigned at birth.

The best filtering example is "breast reduction for cis boys in Texas", since one study looking for underage "female mutilation" found that the exactly same surgery was more than twenty times as likely to be performed on a cis boy than trans boy.

I’ve been shouting from the fucking rooftops They will come after ALL trans healthcare, and indeed all other rights. No one cares. They are mostly totally ignorant of us, so they believe whatever bullshit they read. Just like the republicans will come, and likely succeed, in overturning Obergefell. I won’t be able to legally access healthcare, nor will I be able to marry. Remember, all of our “...

they start with kids because they have no rights and are thus easier to oppress, and they then use that to come after the rest of us

Not surprised, this is the main reason why I never said "Well I guess you should be 18 to transition", I knew gender affirming care bans were never going to be just for minors. Trump himself gave up the game when he made 19 the minimum age for federal plans.

it's age 25 in oklahoma, in case you were wondering where the "your brain isn't mature until 25" lie was going this whole time

It's so fucking crazy that a handful of creepy weirdos have so much influence on this country, just because the Republicans hold power. I shouldn't have to care what an asshat like this "wants"; the rule of law should prevail and most people should be able to point and laugh at an unflushable turd like this.

Imagine if the Democrats worked anything at all like this. Some random scribbler with a weird personal hobbyhorse expresses what they want in relation to a marginalized group and the entire party acts on it.

It cannot be stated enough: conservatives are WEIRD FREAKS. The Republican Party: same thing.

At Heritage, we believe that so-called transgender surgery is bad for anybody because of what you saw in Rhode Island yesterday," Roberts said He conveniently doesn't mention that the shooter was also a Trump supporting Nazi.

Yes, ignoring Nazis among their movement and party is a regular feature of conservatives/Republicans.

Does this ghoul go out in public? Does he expect to continue to be able to live in society, go into restaurants, rent cars, go for a walk?

This is the piece I don’t understand. Do these people not have a notion of the social contract? Do unto others? How could a person knowingly be associated with something like project 2025 and just keep on trying to exist in the public sphere?

I'm reminded of the TERFs who say "Oh so you're keeping the dick? Interesting..." while simultaneously making it nearly impossible to get Genital Reconstruction Surgery

They want us to transition as little as possible. Not because they think it will stop us from being trans but because it makes us easier to identify.
