No reason for this, except to be cruel.

trans people were way better off before they became such a loud voice in politics. they have essentially shot themselves in the foot trying to be the center of attention.

The whole reason they became more visible in politics is because they were tired of being killed and nobody cared.

So no, they weren't "better off before". They were (and still are) subject to unimaginable violence, the difference is NOW, it doesn't happen in silence.

Sherman should've finished the job.

Surely you mean Sherman?

Custer was the bigot a**hole who decided to pick a fight he couldn’t win with native Americans at Little Big Horn.

Sherman was the general who set fire to the south and razed the land from Georgia to the sea.

Damn it, I did. Fixed thanks! Yeah fuck Custer

it takes a big lemming to accept friendly correction, fix the error and acknowledge the event. bravo, friend - it makes us all the better

Republicans are NOT Nazis but they are Legislating away the Literal Existence of People who don't follow their Religion!

The saddest part is that their religion also said to love your neighbor and welcome immigrants.

We need to turn this around. Have cis white dudes with southern accents go around preaching "freedom" and pushing bills. Boom, its a trans rights bill. They wanna turn the language upside down? Go for it, its not my fault your sog whistles sound like the truth.
