It’s so fucking funny that they still have that billionaire bought failed bullet dodger all gums fucker as their icon on that sub.
Transgender is “wrong” and “immoral” yet all these republicans are crooks, fraudster, adulterers, hidden closeted gays, and support and back the worlds largest pedophile on the planet with the nuclear codes.
But yeah, letting a man grow boobs is the problem here.
Because when Republicans are “crooks” they are hurting the right people. So it makes it okay.
Conservatism has always been about oppression. It’s not about small government or even protecting the kids.
It’s oppression.
Don’t forget that Republicans like Rafael Cruz don’t have to use the name on their birth certificate, or that most Republican politicians have had gender affirming care like hair plugs and testosterone.
I can excuse wanting to fuck children…but I draw the line at giving them puberty blockers. /s
Men should be allowed to grow boobs if they want.
But the point of being a trans woman is that you’re not a man.
I read it charitably as someone born with a male body wanting grow boobs…
But sometimes a pithier statement, though technically less correct, does more work.
I think there should be more mental space carved out for men with boobs, I dated a big dude with a sumo type body and the contrast between the muscly arms and legs and the soft moobs, mmmmm
None of that matters to a kid. To them it’s just a person being a person, wearing person clothes, and doing person things.
yeah no fuck you. transgender rights are not about “men growing boobs.”
I think you’re misconstruing my sarcasm about Republicans and their inability to deal with trans people and how they view them.
Sorry mate.
It’s almost like we should keep government out of our lives unless there is a good reason.
What I thought was a conservative value when I was growing up.
Which is why our current “conservative” party is really more closely described as the neoliberal Christo-fascist authoritarian party who all eagerly voted for “I’m going to be a dictator on day one!”
This reminds me of the Biden Administration, who was trying desperately to control immigration, and declaring that they did NOT support open borders, while the entire time, MAGAs were screaming “BIDEN HAS OPEN BORDERS! THEY’RE LETTING EVERYBODY IN!” every chance they got.
If people below our southern borders got the idea that they were welcome to come to America, it wasn’t the Biden Administration that invited them, it was MAGA. Nobody was sending the message that undocumented immigrants were welcome in America more strongly than MAGA.
The other day, elementary age kids received pamphlets in the mail explaining all about being trans, thinking it would turn people against the trans community. It probably will, but it also taught a lot of kids how to hide being trans from your conservative parents, and that pamphlet was almost certainly a MAGA October Campaign Dirty Trick. Now we also know that it was almost certainly conceived, created, and paid for by Elon Musk. Of course it is, it smells just like him.
Just goes to show whoever’s screaming the loudest the most wins with the dumbest people. Which is why more politicians need to realize that they need to constantly and aggressively keep repeating their messages and any and every win they have. Like Mamdani has been in New York.
Fuck Reddit and Fuck Spez.
Is lemmy still jerking itself off over not being reddit yet perpetuating many of its tendencies? I guess I should not be surprised. Same regret, different place
Those were the easy times. One boogyman. Here, in addition to us being decentralised, so is spez.
I read that and was thinking he almost " got it" but he didn’t.
When much of one’s political ideology is based off of manufactured outrage over the mere existence of a people group making up .01% of the population, they deserve all this stupid kind of bullshit that follows.
What you feared under communism has come true under capitalism.
It’s almost like a progressive wrote this, in order to change minds in that sub. But I don’t think so. Which makes this super ironic.
I sometimes wonder if accounts like The Patriotic Blonde aren’t out to subvert conservatives. It’s exactly how I would do it!
Sometimes while drinking I’d start a new reddit account and post some daily mail articles to try to build karma with the goal of eventually infiltrating their sub and subtly propagandizing them away from fascism with posts similar to this, but it just seemed so soul sucking that I could never put in the effort to follow through once I sobered up.
Conservatism should be illegal.
That poor Leopard is going to die of over consumption.

Parenting comes with so many teachable moments. This is just another one.
You’ve got many more tough conversations in your future. Unless you suddenly don’t have a kid.
Even then “didn’t you used to have a kid/more kids” has to be a really tough conversation. Or at least I assume so, the father that doesn’t speak to me would be the one to know for sure
While the leopards munch face, Red State America thank their zombie god for Dear Leader. He kept trans people out of public johns.

Why talk when you can beat the gay out of them preemptively?
The thing is that the very reason he’s afraid is because the conservative take makes no sense and it’s just hatred for hatred’s sake – he can’t explain it to his kids without making it sound that way, because that’s exactly what it is!
“Sometimes God makes people who have a boy’s body and a girl’s brain.”
“So why are the tv people against what God did?”
“Well those people they don’t have to be like that.”
“But if they have a boy’s body and a girl’s brain, how is that their fault?”
“Goddamnit political ads you kids are too young to be exposed to this!!”
"
Sometimes God makes people who have a boy’s body and a girl’s brain."“God makes people exactly as they should be, but sometimes people are tricked by sinners, start thinking their body was made wrong, like wanting to be a girl if they’re a boy, and try to change it.”
“So why are the tv people against what God did?”"Really? Wow! I remember when Sarah tricked me into getting the sticker and not m&ms for treasure box today; I didn’t like it. 😟 "
FTFY: Not that I don’t agree with you or get your point, but I think you’re giving a lot of conservatives way too much credit in thinking outside their box. Any part of the LGBTQ+ community is a choice to most of them.
If you never mention it to them, raise them in the church, home school them, make sure they marry some other homeschooler, keep them working in the family grift, you can raise them so they never hear about things like Trans and Gay and Liberal and Socialist, and they’ll create a better Christian America in the future.

Litterally why I started to pay for Youtube Premium last election cycle. “Daddy why does <Local Politician> want to kill babies?”
Started playing music over bluetoon in the car to avoid the same ads on the radio.
It took lots of effort to get rid of them, but I see almost no ads anymore. Not on the internet, not YouTube on my phone or in my TV shows or when I’m listening to music. I’m practically allergic to them. Now when I catch an ad that made it past me, it gets a physical reaction from me from just how FUCKING LOUD everything is all the time. And not just volume, but audio compression, colors, camera angles, costumes, set pieces, all of it. It’s a goddamn assault. They all just want their little piece of your time.
Obligatory Bansky quote
People are taking the piss out of you everyday. They butt into your life, take a cheap shot at you and then disappear. They leer at you from tall buildings and make you feel small. They make flippant comments from buses that imply you’re not sexy enough and that all the fun is happening somewhere else. They are on TV making your girlfriend feel inadequate. They have access to the most sophisticated technology the world has ever seen and they bully you with it. They are The Advertisers and they are laughing at you. You, however, are forbidden to touch them. Trademarks, intellectual property rights and copyright law mean advertisers can say what they like wherever they like with total impunity. Fuck that. Any advert in a public space that gives you no choice whether you see it or not is yours. It’s yours to take, re-arrange and re-use. You can do whatever you like with it. Asking for permission is like asking to keep a rock someone just threw at your head. You owe the companies nothing. Less than nothing, you especially don’t owe them any courtesy. They owe you. They have re-arranged the world to put themselves in front of you. They never asked for your permission, don’t even start asking for theirs.
More like Based-sy. Holy shit that’s a good quote.
I switched to NewPipe as my YouTube client, to the same effect
It’s why I allow very little screen time for my kids. I can’t control the fucking ads. They are a part of the brain rot.
I think limiting screen time is great, tablet babies weird me out. But if/when the time comes where they need to be online more, consider helping them set up an adblocker on everything they use. Everyone hates ads including kids. They’d probably think you’re awesome for it.
Litterally why I started to pay for Youtube Premium last election cycle.
Dude, you can get ad-free youtube just by using a browser with a decent adblocker. For free. Stop forking money over to Google.
Why not just use an ad blocker or third party program?
That was my solution to constant ads attacking my rights right about then. I was willing to watch the occasional ad to fund the service. They ramped up the ads and advertised hate against me so all bets were off
