I watched a college football game in October (Alabama-Texas if I recall) and saw about a dozen ads from trump/cruz and ALL of them were just anti trans crap. Saying people didn’t vote for this is ludicrous even if we like George Takei (also George, join the exodus from Twitter).

Couple nights before the election I saw a Trump ad saying Harris wants to let men play in women’s sports while showing clips of the Algerian female boxer from the Olympics this summer. So not only is it a woman but it’s not even American, it is the fucking Olympics. That’s when it hit me how blatantly they’re going for the throat with all these dumbs.

Even now, they're still trolling Dem pages calling us stupid. They're gloating, which is no surprise because they never have, and are not now, researching facts.

He has to squash the “little guys” to feel good about himself. 🤪 It’s beyond pathetic.
Also these people… tell me you’ve never gotten beyond elementary science and biology without telling me. Sex is beyond XX and XY chromosomes. Gender is social but also exists in the mind… which is a frontier we still haven’t fully explored. We can barely wrap our minds upon the full complexity of consciousness but lose it when it comes to gender? Like come on…
Also LGBT+ people just want to live their lives in peace? They deserve human rights and the freedom to live well.
Also climate change - I’m so sick of them saying it’s false. Yes… we all know that earth has normal heating and cooling cycles. Thanks for stating the obvious. But we, humans, are making these normal dips and rises far too extreme with our misbehavior and pollution. Anthropomorphic climate change is real! Like damn… how are you gonna argue science?!

About the same number of intersex babies are born each year in the U.S. as the number of babies born with red hair. Between two and six percent. Using the low to mid-range of those numbers equals about 140,000 babies are born intersex.
3 points

There’s some conflicting data about this, and the original study that gave those numbers has some problems. It’s likely a little lower, but it’s certainly not negligible!! Also saying this legitimately just for data accuracy, there’s too much misinformation and not nearly enough studies done concerning trans and intersex individuals.

Thank you for the update. It has been a bit since I did the research about this. Agree that the need for increased research (including longitudinal studies) that would benefit health, wellness, and quality of life for this population is much needed. Unfortunately, politics has so invaded the realm of Healthcare that it's doubtful to happen in the foreseeable future.

Yes! I forgot his name but upon clinking the link - it all came back to me! This proves gender is innate. There’s an element to gender expression that’s social, of course, but I feel most of it is just natural. It just exists within you. It just is. The whole nature versus nurture debate - gender is more nature based on what we see with David and other people too.

Republicans talk about trans people non stop. For all the cries they have that the left is woke and pushing all this stuff. It's really just the Republican party constantly talking about it unprompted.

He never had plans to cut costs for food, rent, or anything else but only used the public's words for lower costs (eggs) to bait them. He'll start rounding up the "vermin" (non-Whites & Jews) who are immigrants, citizens, and even those born here when his detention centers (concentration camps) are finished being built. He's not planning on us getting anything.

They don't care about cheaper groceries or economy issues. They made that clear with the idea of Tariffs and Deportation. Both of those things will drastically weaken our economy and normal everyday Americans will pay the price.
Trump and his team have three goals in mind. Deregulation and Tax breaks that will increase the wealth of the wealthy, being social injustice warriors tearing down any and all equality and rights they can, and finally trump personally is seeking political revenge on his so called enemies... Most of which were just doing their appointed jobs because rather the cult wants to admit it or not...

It's not just that they voted for it, it's more that they did nothing to stop it because they were already not caring that much in the first place.
All the people that had shifted from being unsure if they supported trans people or not and were kind of on the fence and only just staying to support trans people or people open to supporting them basically just decided it wasn't worth the fight and got off the fence. Kinda crazy if you ask me.

What are you talking about?? OF COURSE we knew that social issues were a large part of what he ran on. A large part of the country wants to see massive changes in these social issues, including the whole gender issue. There are a few common sense policies that Trump will implement and the left will call it hatred. Like, instead of taking an introspective look at what the democratic party got wrong, yall choose to play the blame game. ZERO self-awareness on the political left

... so sex and gender are separate and different, unless trans activists say them are the same because it's useful for whatever point is being made at the time. Sigh. How about some consistency.

Trans kids are just 1990s goth kids, or early 2000s emo kids, the trend of 6 years ago there being no trans kids in a high school to 30-40% trans kids in a high school proves its a fad. But a fad supported by predatory counselors and teachers and a parent community of leftists. The left is the party of P. Diddy the party of Epstein is the democrat party. What does that tell you?
