Can I call for children to not be allowed to go to Christian sleep away camps then? I haven't seen a single report of a transgender person harming a child, but hoo boy those youth pastors...
I'd rather send my child to a camp operated exclusively by trans people than one containing even a single deeply conservative person. Conservative run and proven pedophile operations: the Catholic Church, Boy Scouts of America, The Southern Baptist Convention.
Preaching to the choir, but what does this person’s gender identity have to do with anything job related? If they are bad at the job, that’s a different story, but how often do public officials grandstand about that? So frustrating to read of this blatant evil going on.
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
That had me dead
Ya it is lol
Most people dont, but every once and awhile ill chime back with a little joke
In the throws of desperation, laughter can really make the difference in someone's mood
What happened to them is only illegal if the government protects their rights that were violated.
If they are left to fend for themselves, or their rights are set to be "decided" by the Supreme Court, than they don't actually have rights.
or in other words, this is technically still illegal but theres not a god damn chance in hell it doesnt work and lead the way to a new world where any trans person can be fired from their job if so much as one person accuses them, hell arrested even, and sentenced to death
It’s can be one of the flaws in our system but under that definition there virtually no laws or protections. Someone had to be their for the Bostock decision also. As there was for Roe. Rosa Parks was actually selected and part of a plan to be a “good defendant”. Etc
If you define people by their sexuality and define sexuality as obscene, then you get away with defining people - by their very existence - as "obscene."
Oh yeah man these people really care about the law when it doesn't suit there needs. I'm sure they'll knock it right out as soon as they find out and won't you know, do it anyway, fight it in all the courts they control, all the way up to the SC and just unmake those laws.
I understand what you were saying, but you may want to clarify that nothing illegal has actually happened yet. Bigots are free to complain about stuff all they way, and the rest of us are free to mock them for their bigotry and ensure it follows them their entire lives
The guy who started it has taken his facebook profile private, and I suspect many of the friends of his who approved of his bigotry will soon be doing the same.
You can't shame the shameless, but you can sure as heck advertise their bigotry!
Space Camp shouldn’t even be in Alabama—unless the goal is to simulate outer space by placing it in the most vacuous, deadly, and inhospitable location possible.
It's there because there's a rocket park and museum there and it's in tour-bus distance of Redstone Arsenal and Marshall Space Flight Center, where a lot of the U.S. space program was and continues to be developed.
...They used to have another location in Florida.
The important thing here is to ensure things carry on "untarnished by the progressive agenda of today" (sarcasm). That's quite a phrase. If we do that nothing will ever improve.
Any chance we can get The Economist to run an article about how the right wing-driven moral panic against trans people is fueling cancel culture and threatening free speech in the workplace?
While I understand the very practical reasons for it, having our space program based in ungovernable tribal regions is going to be increasingly problematic, even Elon aside
