In the middle east? They would let you sleep with all the king's harem women if you would just chop the whole thing off. How does that become being a felon for life and going to jail? WTF. How about heat and electricity during heat waves and blizzards? Who becomes a felon and goes to jail when those utilities fail when the population need them the most???
Texas is a huge flyover state.
I dont understand the extreme hate towards trans people. Just let em do their thing
Conservatism requires classes and if you are just gonna make shit up and you're a hateful bigot you attack people you don't like. It's high school level shit
It's astroturfed by the elite class, to create a "subclass" of people to the masses to rally against, helped by the fact that there's almost no transgender elites, meaning they cal claim they have more in common with the ordinary people.
Plus on the basis of transgenderism, they can persecute any gender noncomformity, including not reproducing like rabbits.
If the people aren't given someone to hate they might figure out their leaders having been fucking them over.
Remember how people were gaslighting about how the cons don't really want this, they just want to "protect the kids" and so on?
Someone better tell Caitlyn Jenner because she is deep, deep in denial. They aren't going to spare you for being one of the "good ones".
"Land of the free"
"They gonna talk to you and talk to you and talk to you about individual freedom. But they see a free individual, it's gonna scare 'em."
Modern day nazis testing the waters.
That's fascism.
I remember the days of old when pointing out that fascism was taking root in America was met with mocking ridicule.
And now it is simple fact.
They always need a minority to persecute.
Not that I needed another reason to never visit texas, but I'll take another. Way way overrated state. Cold singles at the gas station are cool though.
Texas is a Nazi state.
That's the goal of this holocaust. It's not about extermination. The enemies of the state will be shuffled into for-profit prisons, where they will become slave labor.
Its more about not allowing trans people to be visible. Pretty much the same as 10 years ago.
Which is odd, because they will be very visible in those orange jumpsuits. Jokes aside, profit will be scraped from their very bones before the end.
Make sure you're acquiring forms of self defense, and training. I recommend something that is visible, like a rifle, and something that cannot be disarmed, like muay thai.
A literal thought-crime
“I want to make it clear that my heart goes out to those struggling with gender dysphoria,” he said, referring to the medical term for the severe emotional distress caused by the misalignment between one’s gender identity and birth sex.
[X] Doubt
If the US now only recognizes two genders, then isn't "identifying as transgender" merely an exercise of free speech?
I would for any conservatives to come and answer this question for you and I.
Does anyone know how fond Caitlyn Jenner is of Texas?
I don't think she cares much. She's rich, she can just fuck off somewhere and thank the Texans for passing that bill.
Couldn't you just identify as the gender you transitioned to? What a waste of time and tax dollars
The bill is about identifying as anything but your assigned at birth sex on official documents, so no which is the point of this awful bill.
These chucklefucks are literally threatening butch lesbians for looking like dudes. Theyre trying to roll back progress.
roll back progress
the literal definition of conservatism
The literal definition of conservatism is to conserve, to protect from change. This is reactionary.
Theyre trying to roll back progress.
It's a little more insidious than that. They'd be more than happy to unalive anyone they don't like. And this is a step in that direction.
Murder is the word you want there. Murder.
You can say kill or murder here.
But identifying as an Apache Helicopter is aokay?
