What's with these takes on 196?
It isn't about killing the half and it is about saving. Trans people are the target of the GOP right now. Laws are being passed. If Trump or Desantis wins people are going to get lined up.
Let me ask now. Between the Dems and Republicans, in which administration and government control would trans people have a higher chance of survival, being free, allowed to actually transition and express themselves?
It's common sense if you look at the big picture instead of tunnelvisioning on your own community. "people are going to get lined up." [Citation Needed]. When you lie about authoritarian violence happening it cheapens the times it actually does happen, and it happens regardless of what party is in power. Your take is seriously "I'm okay with the murderous status quo as long as my half of a percent of the population is allowed to fully express themselves". You know who can't even partially express themselves? Dead Palestinians, Dead Ukranians, Dead Russians, Dead Israelis.
Are you really asking for a citation after the past few years of what the GOP is saying? Project 2025? You have to be trolling
"If Trump or Desantis wins people are going to get lined up." I'm simply asking where this nonsensical fearmongering comes from? Where has either Trump or Desantis publicly stated that their policy in regards to trans people is to have them killed? There is actual violence going on on large scales against much larger groups of people. Direct your feelbads to the issues that are actually major issues. The cost of living in this country more than likely causes more trans suicides than whatever legislation the GOP want to ram through and that issue is something everyone faces and not just a tiny minority.
You're such a fucking troll lol
That's not a citation or an argument. it's kay to be wrong
Oh no, i am right. I don't need to go proving it to someone who is being bad faith. You don't think Trump or Desantis is going to kill trans people? Fucking a'. Ignoring the last 2 years and even ignoring my Project 2025 comment.
Yeah I'm the fool cuz I won't eat up your baseless unsubstantiated claim of violence. Show me where it happened. I want to know where you're getting this victimization thing from. If you want to make an assertion then back it up. I read the wiki for Project 2025. I don't support it. That doesn't change the fact that Discrimination =/= Violence. Trans ppl aren't out there dying left and right cuz they didn't get a job at fuckin Chick Fil A.
Lmao. What ignorant dribble. Next you're going to tell me Trump and Desantis aren't fascists and ignore all the anti trans bills and talking points the last few years.
Brain dead ass troll
You really gotta work on identifying violence m8.
I know violence. Your ignorance is what's going to expand it.
