The acronym was never about sexuality, it was about gender non-conformity. By the same notion, that's what people's attitudes are being measured about: specific forms and sub-groups of gender non-conformity.

Right, and therein lays the rub: it's open to interpretation, and things will get interpreted differently by different people in different places and times.
Most medieval Christians believed that transgender people (not how they would have been labeled at that time, but they frequently didn't have a specific word for such people, so we'll make do) were created by God as the gender they identify as BUT were changed by the devil to the opposite gender in the womb. Gender transition was therefore putting things back they way that God intended and was fighting against the devil.
Anti trans Christians today believe it's the other way around.
And this is why evidence based policy making is so important for a successful government.
Can't lose something you never had.
These people were always fascists, they just didn't know it or knew to hide it.
The heart attack thing is probably untrue, but it doesn't need to be true to justify ending three DST nonsense.
The people responsible for the firing weren't punished at all. Florida tax payers were. In a functional democracy this would lead to the people responsible for the firing to be held accountable, but... well....
It's worth noting that "blue no matter who" is just a bandaid, just a drive to get fascists out of power long enough to enact voting reform. The two party system is an organic result of First Past The Post voting; we have to move to some form of Rank Choice if we're ever to see any progress. Thankfully voting regulations are on the local level, where change is still possible. This is one of the many reasons Trump is trying to federalize elections.
Until we get voting reform, there will only be Two Parties, and they will always drift to the right.
Right? Headline should really read "Trump admits Epstein list is real, defends some of the people on it."
Everything you just mentioned supports my assertion.
Did you get me mixed up with the other guy?
In my previous comment "good" is synonymous with "least bad" which apparently isn't obvious enough despite my previous clarification about the world not being black & white.
So no, when faced with multiple options, all of them bad, picking the least bad option ISN'T the same as picking the most bad option and therefore a person picking the least bad option can't reasonably be "shit on"
Because we all know the Eastern countries would NEVER adopt Western concepts, ergo the idea MUST be universal!
Case closed! Good job! You should treat yourself.
Meanwhile, OP (who is clearly, obviously wrong) must live in shame. Because there's just NO WAY they might be correct, and have stated facts that are easily google-able and even has a whole Wikipedia page with all these details with cited sources in the opening paragraph, like this one https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaywalking
THAT WOULD BE SILLY
Voting FOR trans rights accomplishes nothing beyond making sure that trans people have rights.
Voting AGAINST trans rights undermines the freedom and safety of everyone.

Just another "Conservatives FAFO"
You don't get to support marginalizing other groups in other states and then complain when your group gets marginalized in your state. They opened this particular Pandora's box and it's too late to close it.
