OT "I'm Dealing With A Few Transgender Issues"

It shouldn't surprise anyone that this asshole never watched a WNBA game.

Drag is OK if straight men do it for laughs.

 

How creepy is it that Republicans want genital inspections to enforce cis gender identity. Fascist fucking party needs to go away

 

Transphobia is intrinsically linked to racism, especially anti-black racism; the way white people masculinize black women is disgusting, always coming down to jokes or even serious insistence black women are actually men. You can see it implemented in the Olympic policy on testosterone and the way TERF ideology insists that gender conforms to the white definition of femininity.

In fact, it’s possible the current wave of transphobia is only getting noticed because it’s affecting white gender non-conforming women enough to make the news. This shit has been happening to cis black women the entire time.

 

It’s “14 words” shit, a “new” way to expand blood and soil racism. (Like I said above, homophobia and transphobia are very much linked to old fashioned klan-style racism)

 

Maynard James Keenan has done a lot of crossdressing over Tool’s history; very punk of him to do it now when there’s some actual stakes involved

 

I expect the law will be selectively applied in ways to make it most politically convenient to the people in power, which is to say nobody's going to arrest Phish, because it'll make for bad press. But they'll crack down on trans people and queer people who don't have the resources to defend themselves. That "in group who is protected but not bound" versus "out group who is bound but not protected" thing.

 

Jesus Christ. Don't any of these assholes have a wife, girlfriend, daughter who swims?

 

This does not bode well

 

I worked at Target after high school around the holidays. If some bigot would have hassled me about some mesh on swimsuits or rainbows on tshirts I would have told them to fuck right off. Go ahead and fire me. I feel for their staff, they obviously don't deserve this bullshit, but Target should have done something else. What a bunch of cowards.

 

Bigots try terrorism.

 

They can't

 

Looks like we're done with target
