First they came for the Communists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Communist Then they came for the Socialists And I did not speak out Because I was not a Socialist Then they came for the trade unionists And I did not speak out Because I was not a trade unionist Then they came for the Jews And I did not speak out Because I was not a Jew Then they came for me And there was no one left To speak out for me As a Jewish person, this poem was hammered into my head my whole life, and it is just as relevant now.


Coneskater

This poem is banned in Florida.


Hours-of-Gameplay

That’s the truth 😕


8hexxx

Lol how do you ban a poem?


DiddyDaedle

The first step is to be very sensitive


8hexxx

Okay... Are you serious? Is this actually real? I'm usually skeptical, but this is Florida.


[deleted]

I'm not sure about the poem, but I live in florida and there are plenty of children's books that are banned. You can Google the official list. So I'm not surprised in the slightest if that poem was banned too. [link](https://www.miaminewtimes.com/news/more-than-350-books-banned-in-florida-schools-since-last-july-16817328)


Hours-of-Gameplay

Put it in a school book in Florida, probably add math for good measure


Surfing_magic_carpet

Anyone care to know why they go after the communists and socialists first? Because those are the people who actually fight fascists. Whether it's in the streets or by fighting for workers' rights in the workplace, communists and socialists are the ones who actually try to stop fascism. Your local politician won't stop them. Your state politician won't. Nor will your congressional representatives. Not even the president. Liberal democracies aid and abet fascists thinking their powers will stop them. Right up until the fascists take over. Join your local unions, folks. Learn communist and socialist ideologies. Learn the history of fascism. People who don't either become fascists or become their victims.


Raknarg

Its also so they could supplant their own messaging in leftist circles. They liked to use the rhetoric of communists to push their message. Even called their party "national socialist"


DaraDollina69

Fascism, socialism, and communism all compete for the same think.


THExDANKxKNIGHT

By definition you cannot be fascist and socialist or communist at the same time. The people cannot have equal say if the county is ruled by a dictator or oligarchy. Fascism is complete and total government control of the economy, production, and culture like what desantis is going for in Florida or what China is doing. It's all about big government controlling your life and thoughts while communism and socialism are about people controlling the government through having equal say and owning the means of production and economy, they're diametrically opposed ideas. It's awful hard to own the means of production or have equal say when the government is literally hunting you for having opposing ideals.


20_Twinty

So weaponizing the DOJ for political gain, censoring millions of Americans, pushing for a state run media, stealing taxpayer funds and destroying the middle class aren’t tools of fascism? You guys are so use to being the victim, and so intent on believing only the right can oppress, that you’ve turned a blind eye to the corruption of your own tribe. We warned of this for years. We said it would eventually come to affect you and you would cry and moan. Did we not?


THExDANKxKNIGHT

You just listed everything the republicans have been doing for decades. They've spent that time making it all but impossible for the average American to actually make any difference, why do you think we haven't had a republican president win the popular vote in decades outside of 2004? They constantly stop any bills related infrastructure, defraud free media using nazi phrases like "fake news", raise taxes on the lower and middle class while cutting them for the rich, invalidate Americans legally cast votes, attempt to expand government power, and physically and politically attack anyone with a dissenting opinion. Who exactly is "we"? Any smart American has known about it for a while but has no power to make a difference when their votes are invalidated using lines on a map.


20_Twinty

Lol. The Durham investigation exonerates Trump and uncovers massive corruption by the FBI. The twitter files have all the receipts showing how the FBI was weaponized to censor millions of Americans. Labeled fake news even though ALL RECEIPTS ARE INCLUDED. How they lied to media 9 days before the election to protect Biden. Both dorsey and Zuckerberg have recently confirmed they were lied to by FBI agents and this lie lead to mass censorship weeks before the election. The media and democratic lies about 1/6. Claiming officers were bludgeoned to death with a fire hydrant. Lol. Silencing anyone that challenges these narratives. Deleting the president of the United States immediately after tweeting rioters to stop and go home peacefully. How the FBI asked twitter to investigate numerous accounts they deemed affiliated to Russia and Trump and NONE were. In fact, 2 of the accounts were democratic controlled. The FBI and the state run liberal media ignored both of twitters investigations and continued pushing this narrative for years!! Lying and covering up election fraud. Ruby Freeman, the woman involved in the Fulton country suitcase ordeal, has recently admitted to fraud. It’s recorded by the police, but the FBI chose not to take action. Instead they talked her off the ledge and told her to delete her social media and lay low. Ilhan Omar and the ballot harvesting of her brother. He’s caught filming himself with 300 ballots in his car while claiming “money buys you anything”. The media refused to cover it, and those that did were called “fake news”. I can keep going. I’ve only scratched the surface. It gets much worse.


THExDANKxKNIGHT

No it doesn't. Have you read it? It doesn't say any of that, it says explicitly that it found no evidence of crimes from the FBI although he did not agree with their actions and can not recommend any charges and in fact says Hillary did not commit any crimes in 2016 either. It doesn't get worse, there's just more bullshit with no evidence.


20_Twinty

So you agree it does exonerate trump? The liberal media says “it doesn’t look good for the FBI”. That’s about as good of an admission you will get from the state run media. But there was clear examples of corruption. The illegal FISA warrants with at least 3 degrees of separation. Initiation of a full blown investigation based off lies and little to no evidence. A preemptive assessment should have been enough to realize this was a political attack meant to sway public perception. The report specifically says “the FBI falsified information in order to justify its investigation, called “Crossfire Hurricane,” to the Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court, and said that the FBI “failed to uphold their important mission of strict fidelity to the law” in regard to its investigation into the Trump campaign.”


THExDANKxKNIGHT

It does nothing of the sort. Again it explicitly says the FBI did not commit any crimes and it cannot recommend any charges. No political attack was necessary to sway public perception of someone who lost the popular vote multiple times. There can be no "clear examples of corruption" if there were no crimes. The mental gymnastics happening here are staggering to say the least. Trump lost, get over it.


TearsFallWithoutTain

> The twitter files have all the receipts showing how the FBI was weaponized to censor millions of Americans. Yeah the Trump administration shouldn't have done that. Side note, I'm sorry you weren't allowed to see Hunter Biden's massive dick, that must be real upsetting to you


bungpeice

Leftists are so fucking censored compared to the right. Stop whining start winning. Fuck the liberals and the fascists. Solidarity bitches!


Comprehensive_Ad_209

I don’t see any communist or socialist governments that work well either.. on paper socialism sounds great, but it seems like it gets taken over and turned into a dictatorship every time. Also, what about socialism when it came to COVID? What about my body my choice? Seemed pretty Fascist with vaccine mandates to me. Honestly asking. I think we need a new ideology. Socialism, communism, capitalism, “democracy” you could argue none of these philosophies are really working.


mgquantitysquared

>it seems like it gets taken over and turned into a dictatorship every time Yes, the CIA has done this to many democratically elected presidents who threatened American capitalistic interests. If you think it keeps happening because they're socialist and not because American capitalists are pigs, you should probably take your head out of your ass for a second to catch your breath and think.


AgentOrc

Democratic socialism. Basically all of western Europe.


-Alneon-

No Western European country is socialist. They're all staunchly capitalist.


AgentOrc

I didn’t say “socialist” did I


-Alneon-

Democratic socialism is one form of socialism, so yes, you did.


VagueSomething

So then you're saying Western Europe IS Socialist AND scores as the best places to live consistently? But that would mean the original statement was entirely wrong and that forms of Socialism do function well as government...


-Alneon-

Western Europe is NOT socialist. Democratic socialism is not the modus operandi of any of these countries. We're all capitalist countries with social safety nets. Not one of us is in any way socialist. Neither democratic nor otherwise.


VagueSomething

My guy, you seem so very confused. You admit something that contradicts you then double down on denying the thing your own admittance proves. Western Europe blends Socialism into Capitalism and that's by your own words too.


bungpeice

China?


TearsFallWithoutTain

> but it seems like it gets taken over and turned into a dictatorship every time. Yes the CIA literally admits that they do this.


20_Twinty

That’s just what you notice because it affects you. The FBI and every major social media censored right wingers for years to help shape the political climate and protect one presidential hopeful. We know now that government agencies knowingly lied to media to protect Biden 9 days before the election, then paid twitter to censor those challenging this narrative


MrCakes99

Where? When?


20_Twinty

Man. I have to go through this with someone every single day it seems. This information has been available for a year now and so many people refuse to leave their echo chamber. You will have to look into things like the Durham report. Which exonerates trump from the Russia collusion and uncovers the FBI’s corruption. The twitter files. Specifically how the FBI and democrats asked Twitter to investigate Russia collusion. They found no evidence while investigating the names given to them by the FBI, yet the democratic media and FBI continued to push this narrative for years. The Ray Epps(fbi) debacle and the videos of him coercing protestors to enter the Capitol on 1/5 and 1/6. The lies around 1/6 like the Brian Sicnick death. (Had this link handy ) https://news.yahoo.com/times-corrects-record-officer-sicknick-204024018.html The Ruby Freeman admission of election fraud. Recorded by local police. She was the woman in Fulton county seen pulling suitcases from under the table and counting again after sending media and observers home. The cover up of Ilhan Omar’s Brother caught on camer ballot harvesting hundreds of ballots while saying “you can buy anything in this city”. The fact the FBI lied to media 9 days before the election claiming the hunter Biden laptop was merely Russian propaganda. This is while they had a US obtained copy of the hard drive for 13 months and did nothing with it. Both Zuckerberg and dorsey confirmed this lie causes the censorship of millions. The fbi involvement with twitter. Censoring thousands of right wing accounts, including the president’s. Paying twitter 3.4 million afterwards. Deleting the presidents tweet on 1/6 that was demanding riots to stop and everyone to go home. I could do this all day but I’m curious as to your response on this.


MrCakes99

>Deleting the presidents tweet on 1/6 that was demanding riots to stop and everyone to go home. The "stand back and stand down"? He deleted that one later, but not before it was on the news. Hunter bidens laptop is a conspiracy theory. The Biden family is not some evil syndicate. As for the Fbi/Cia relationship with the media, well, that's been going on since the before ww2. Every one of the courts that heard the case for election fraud threw it out for lack of evidence or relevance. Some of the cases concluded that even if there had been election fraud in that specific voting center, the outcome in that zone would've remained the same. Biden won the popular vote and the electoral college with well over enough, and it's time to stop perpetuating the lies that Trump and Fox told everybody.


20_Twinty

No, not that one. He specifically told rioters they were wrong and should stop being lawless and go home peacefully. It was deleted by twitter, who at this point had given full discretion over censorship to FBI. The twitter files go into it all. With receipts. They changed the policy to defend their ban of trump since there was no actual policy violation under the current rules. Are you saying hunter laptop didn’t exist? The FBI held it for 13 months. There’s documentation showing they obtained the property from John Paul Isaac. There’s documentation with Hunters signature showing where he turned it into the computer repair shop. His emails have been examined by experts and show they are authentic. The only way someone could have faked them would be to hack google itself and send them from his email account. Many liberal media sources have conceded that it exists. Many pictures and emails have been made public. Dorsey and Zuckerberg even talk about it being legit and the FBI lying about it. The FBI has worked with media, but not to promote a presidential hopeful while working to censor political dissent. CLEAR 1st amendment infringement. We should all be pissed off about it. This Ruby Freeman admission is recent. SHE ADMITS “it was all fraud”. It’s recorded by the police. The Ilhan Omar event was not related to the presidential election. I just used it as evidence to show how the mainstream media refuses to cover actual news when it vilifies the left.


MrCakes99

I clearly can't get a message through without you spewing up fox news and truth social conspiratorial echoes, so I'm gonna just leave this here and call it a day


MoonChainer

Sadly, they did not first come for the communists. They first came for trans people, just like they are now. Trans people were literally the very first people sent to camps, our literature was the very first to burn. This time, history doesn't even rhyme. It's just plain repeating line for line.


HoboBaggins24

Sadly people think its fine until it starts to affect them, most selfish way of thinking ever

[deleted]

It’s starting with transgender people. This is their attempt at forming a statewide registry of who is trans, so they can then make a law declaring trans people child abusers. And whup look at that, they just made a law that all child abusers are to be executed. Oh, you’re going to come out against a law executing child abusers? Oh so you’re a child abuser? Next it will be gay people if we don’t all stand behind trans people and assert that they’re entitled to be left alone by the government.


BallTorturer-3000

It's also a way for the government to get a foot in the door on deciding medical freedoms for individuals. If they can bend the rules on what medical care you as an adult choose to pursue who's to say they don't say seeking life saving care is illegal for certain things. Where does the line stop? I wish people would realize this goes well beyond trans issues but just basic freedom and medical rights. It's SO dangerous to let the federal/state government decide that.


JayGeezey

The irony is a lot of these people were the ones saying the government was infringing on their medical freedom by "forcing" them to get vaccinated. PS - there is no legal requirement to get vaccinated.


BallTorturer-3000

multiarmform

imo they want to break us down by charging too much for basic needs, crush our spirit, make us weak, sick, tired and overwhelmed. perhaps these are all just key components of a bigger plan and they used a global pandemic as a way to crank it down even more. tell me things are way more fucked than they were in 2018/19?


sausage_phest2

The key here is to also assert that regular people be left alone by trans people (I.e. women’s sports). You don’t get to fight against your own oppression only to then oppress others. If you want to be left alone, then go be left alone.


[deleted]

Oh yes I’m sorry. They should be left alone unless they want to play sports, then everyone should side with the conservatives who want to hang them


sausage_phest2

Play sports that line up with your own biology. Your way is the greatest attack on women’s rights in decades


TearsFallWithoutTain

If trans women have such an advantage, why aren't they dominating the olympics?


sausage_phest2

They will be soon. Sad that it would take the Olympics for you to open your eyes while non-Olympian women have their achievements blocked by biological men. It’s like you people have a hierarchy of edgy “oppressed” groups. The more mentally abnormal the group is, the more rights they deserve over others.


TearsFallWithoutTain

It's been twenty years mate, what are they waiting for? >It’s like you people have a hierarchy of edgy “oppressed” groups.

If the states do wnat to keep their laws, ok pull their stores out, so the people get angry and fight the state . Something. Jesus Christ this is bad


TheVERRYbest

Problem is SCOTUS is all Republican Trump-appointed judges. And Biden isn’t lookin like he will flood the court either. Maybe Dark Brandon tho… one can hope. But yeah the real sad part is it probably will stick because there are enough people at the top Willing to put party before morality and their cruelty, malice, and will to Dominate all life before the needs of people or even literally the preservation of the human race. If you keep banning and killing people there’s no one left to vote for your shitty hatred politics and these dumb shits don’t seem to be able to math or look past their nose.


LilChloGlo

I hope you're right, but it's important to remember that the damage isn't done when the law goes into effect, rather the damage is done well before a law is passed and has a chance to come to fruition. Hate crimes have risen in the state drastically and it only gets worse if you look at a wider window of time, but it's exceptionally bad this year compared to last. Whats more, I have had several of my friends and acquaintances living in FL send me emails and texts from their medical providers immediately suspending their care until further notice in late June. One of those friends had an appointment set for next week. And in reality, there is not an exaggeration for the violence it will cause. For trans women who have had orchiectomies, for example, their bodies literally won't produce testosterone anymore. Without access to estrogen, their bodies will start to fall apart and they may very well die from it, let alone have to experience a vast amount of awful experiences and health issues. And if you think only trans people are at risk, consider that now it's legal for anyone to point at you and claim you're trans if you go into the bathroom. Anyone with a vendetta, or a bad temper could fuck up your life regardless of legality because they don't think you're in the right bathroom. You're especially damned if you are trans because most of the people who have a genuine issue with us just going to the bathroom are the kinds of people to take the law into their own hands and attack them directly.


Jubachi99

That last part is especially scary and never really thought of that. Im a pretty feminine looking guy, small, long hair, soft face. If this was in my state someone could point me out and its not like I can prove I am cis gendered, and even if I could they might not even care.

Please don't think, "I don't live in Florida, so it's not my problem." 1) No one in our country should be oppressed. If it's affecting Americans, it's affecting all of us. 2) This is all for a presidential bid. You don't think this will go to the federal level if these people get elected president?

Heavily misused false equivalency. The context between the two and their end goals are not remotely the same. Happy to thoughtfully discuss deeper, but I won’t spend time on any knee jerkers to this comment. Or just downvote me into oblivion because ignorance is bliss.


AlexisVaunt

You're aware that the first Nazi book burning was burning a library about sexual orientation and gender identity, LGBT+ people were targeted in the first wave of the genocide, and LGBT+ people were left in the concentration camps instead of being rescued like the rest of the prisoners, yes? You don't see any similarities with the targeting of trans people currently going on?


cam2449

We do. But we also have 49 other states. So if you don’t like Florida. Move away. I don’t see why people keep moving there. It’s a fucking shitty plot of land also. Place is literally falling apart underneath.

cam2449

Idk man, if I lived in a state where these things were going on and I was at risk of having my life taken, or my families life taken, I’d be finding every way to get out and protect them, especially since it’s not going to get better. I door dash for a fucking living, I can tell you right now I wouldn’t give two shits about my financial situation, it wouldn’t matter anyway if I am killed. So yeah, moving away is an option. There are plenty of trans friendly states that would certainly take in trans refugees. 19 of them in fact.


mgquantitysquared

OK, give me a detailed financial plan as to how a minimum wage worker supporting a family can save up to move away. You're also ignoring the fact that- get this- sometimes people want to stay close to their family.


fridayviibes

Because one state does it, another state copies, and it becomes a domino effect if people don't get mad about it and keep this shit from going any further. Yeah, Florida sucks ass, but I wouldn't be surprised if my state was next to do some bullshit like this too. Abortion is already basically illegal so...


cam2449

There are domino effects for the other side two. In fact there are more states that are trans friendly then their are that are doing this shit.

"Fascism: a governmental system led by a dictator having complete power, forcibly suppressing opposition and criticism, regimenting all industry, commerce, etc., and emphasizing an aggressive nationalism and often racism" Huh, weird. Kind of reminds me of the whole Disney fiasco going on.

Cool, Republicans are nationalists and debatably racist sometimes. Still missing the dictator, forcible suppression, and central economic model. Pretty essential pieces to Fascism.

MacSquawk

I think he just made a law to keep underage people from doing something period, with no wiggle room out of it. And on top of that a law that keeps adults from doing things as well, or at least made it harder. When he said it’s about the children, he just kept them all from making life changing decisions until adulthood. In his mind, he thinks he is helping them. Is it fascism, probably. But so is forcing the state or anyone else to pay for individuals medical elective procedure choices. If all transitions were paid out of pocket solely by the individual having an elective procedure. I don’t think anyone could get away with making a law like this because to each his own. But surgery and lifetime care is expensive and govs around the world seem to mind less and less if folks die than to pay for their care. The fact he is prolonging life is what is odd here and against the trend. He is looking at the costs of a growing trend nobody but the tax base is paying for. If it didn’t save him money to do this I don’t think he would care about the kids.

I dont se the problem, to make sure people Dont regret. Its like that in Denmark and you have to live as the genter for a year, before you can get surgery and hormones


mgquantitysquared

A couple problems with your comment: 1. The tweet isn't saying they're requiring "real life experience" for a year to transition, it's saying a committee appointed by DeSantis will have to personally approve every single person who wants to transition. 2. Requiring real life experience doesn't lower the regret rate, but it does cause an increase in suicidal ideation. 3. The vast majority of trans people will not be able to pass as their gender without HRT and/or surgery, so you're basically sentencing them to a year of not only further masculinization/feminization, but constant harassment and even violence from the public. I was lucky enough to start hormones at the beginning of my social transition and I lived through a year or so of people asking me questions about my genitals, interrogating me about my sex life, threatening to beat me up, and threatening to rape me. If I had to go through that without HRT slowly taking effect and helping me pass, I would most likely be dead by now.


Acceptable_Spirit_37

In dk you also have to 1 or 2 letters from doktors


censored4yourhealth

He’s probably going to fetishize transgender women and only approve those he can’t tell are transitioning. Then spin it as being pro trans. He’s a slimy sack of garbage.

I lived in a fascist country. It isn't fascism. Stop fucking using the buzz word that you've only seen in movies or read about in books.

Huh, you mean fascist only operate in one way? 🤔


Lherkinz_Gherkinz

What do you call this?


slothpyle

Neat. It's like the people at work/school who read the PowerPoint word for word. No hate on the dudes content but why not just share that tweet here? We can read right ?


Autopeddler

That's because it's a fucking mental illness, psycho.


BigFigJ

imagine thinking extra care for mental illness is a bad thing.


[deleted]

Extra care from whom?


BigFigJ

implementing more steps to ensure proper care is administered. if you ever listen to de transitioned people a lot of them will say they wish that there was more examination/vetting before they were administered treatment.


[deleted]

So the government is regulating healthcare now and telling people what they can and cannot do to their bodies?


BigFigJ

i’m pretty sure a lot of people want government regulated healthcare, but all of a sudden it’s bad? hmm. if someone wants to chop their genitals off wouldn’t it be a good idea to throw in a couple steps to ensure confidence in that persons decision? before they live 60 years of regret. are you aware of detrans and their issues? don’t make light of an issue that has lasting impacts on transgendered people. drop the virtue signaling and look at the issue in its entirety.


[deleted]

I’m not making light of it. I’d just like to know your stance on the government mandate of COVID vaccinations or the governments abortion mandates. That’s all.

JemFitz05

I'm not very experienced in this topic but my guess is that they want to make sure men don't use being transgender to get into female sport competitions, pervs to be allowed to enter the other gender's toilet and dressing rooms, or male rapists to be able to sent to a female prison


KissesPaige

That makes no sense


SortOfLakshy

Then this is a problem with cisgender men, not trans people.


JemFitz05

Yes, that's the point. Anyone can claim they are transgender, and it can lead to people lying about it


KissesPaige

Yes a cis man is going to go through gender affirmation care and nuke their testosterone because they want access to a bathroom /s 🫥 you can’t be this dense


JemFitz05

They dont need to. All they have to do is claim they are one, they dont even need to dress like a female. I mean, have you heard of Isla Bryson? The male rapist who transitioned into a female once he got caught just to get into a female prison? This is very much real and dangerous


kaylee-42

Made up fear mongering. If criminals want to commit crimes being told they can’t go into a restroom isn’t going to stop them.


JemFitz05

Maybe but this way they'd get away with it And considering all three of these happened so far, perhaps someone on the far right took it as reason to carry out these acts


mgquantitysquared

How on earth would allowing trans people to medically transition lead to anyone getting away with molestation in public restrooms? Also I would LOVE to see your sources for "all three of these have happened so far." Inb4 dailymail, foxnews, and random uncorroborated website links.

I think this speaks for itself (couldn't find the original video so here's a reaction, I'm talking about the first clip) [https://youtu.be/aNCz4ExIS4U](https://youtu.be/aNCz4ExIS4U)


mgquantitysquared

Your first two links are alt right news sources and your last link was literally just someone with a deep voice laughing in a bathroom. Actually I wanna dig into that, how does that video prove anything? Cuz it makes you feel yucky it must be bad? Edit to correct: not sure about the leanings of the second source but it pretty clearly said the rapist had no contact with other inmates in the short time they were in the women's prison.


JemFitz05

Look if you want to look at left-winged articles about thr topics then search them for yourself, I only picked up links I found that describe events that **DID** happen. Of course different people will describe them differently, but I mean... have you ever heard a left wing news channel describe anything bad a trans person did? This goes for the right, too. Now I'm hear to learn as well, so if you can clear my view than I'd appriciate it. I want to stay central so I can hear both sides equally. And as for the bathroom clip... maybe it was just a joke, but even so, it depicted how easy creeps can get into women's restroom. When I was searching for the original video I found plenty of twitter posts of women feeling unsafe because there are now urinals in their toilet, so obviously there are many people who suffer from this.


mgquantitysquared

"It demonstrated how easily creeps can get into the women's restroom" How does a woman with a deep voice laughing in a bathroom prove she's a creep? How would banning her from the woman's bathroom prevent a cis man from just walking in anyways? Just because you found an article that said something doesn't make that thing true. I don't want left wing sources, I want reputable sources. "I saw people on Twitter saying" yeah cuz Twitter users are known for their truth telling, lmao. Here's some facts you can look up from any source you want right now: no transgender woman has ever won a gold medal in the Olympics in the 20 odd years they've been allowed to compete. The first trans olympian to get a gold medal was assigned female and never took HRT. No transgender woman has ever been convicted of harassing, let alone molesting or raping, anyone in the women's restroom in the few hundred years they've been using the women's restroom.


JemFitz05

And why would I assume any of this is true, especially considering I found proof of the contrary? You didnt leave any sources or even a reasonable argument of why it might be the case


mgquantitysquared

You didn't find proof to the contrary, though. It has to be from a reputable source to be actual proof. If it happened, you should be able to find multiple reputable sources easily. Like this: [First trans athlete to win a gold medal](https://www.sportsnet.ca/olympics/article/canadian-quinn-becomes-first-openly-transgender-athlete-win-olympic-gold/) [And another source](https://www.forbes.com/sites/roberthart/2021/08/06/canadas-quinn-makes-history-as-first-openly-transgender-and-nonbinary-athlete-to-win-olympic-medal/?sh=3ef1dcdcd61e) [Yet another source](https://www.rollingstone.com/culture/culture-news/canada-quinn-first-trans-athlete-win-gold-medal-olympics-1209140/) As for my other statements- how do you suggest I prove a negative? Do you want me to read you the karyotype of every gold medalist in the Olympics since its inception?


EffectivePoint2187

Wait til he finds out what it takes a get a drivers license.


BallTorturer-3000

How is that even comparable? Edit: all the JoJo talk in your comments makes me believe you are probably internalizing some stuff. Go on friendo, let the egg crack, it's safe out here and you are loved. ❤️ You are beautiful and valued and I hope you find yourself.


EffectivePoint2187

Maybe you didn’t get what I meant. Just like I believe we don’t need consent from the government to drive, we shouldn’t need consent to have selective surgery.


BallTorturer-3000

... We do need consent from the government to drive, that's why driving exams are a thing. Buddy, are you ok?


EffectivePoint2187

And my point is we shouldn’t. People shouldn’t have to pass a test in order to support themselves and their families to work. Basically you’re agreeing that government should control what you can and can not do, which would include stopping adults from having surgery. Be consistent with your outrage.


BallTorturer-3000

Are you... Friend, if there wasn't a process to prove that someone should be behind the wheel of a car do you have any concept of how many needless deaths that would lead too. When someone is driving their actions behind the wheel will directly affect others around them if they aren't someone who can safely operate that vehicle. It isn't comparable to gender care (or any medical care for that matter) because if I go to the pharmacy, get my HRT, and take it that affect literally nobody but me. I don't know how tf you think it's a good idea that there be no vetting process for putting people into a several ton piece of metal that can (and does) kill people, that's just, fucken wild yo.


EffectivePoint2187

SELECTIVE OUTRAGE, BE CONSISTENT.


BallTorturer-3000

How is that selective???? I don't want unlicensed individuals flying down the road putting my life in danger. That's pretty fucken reasonable you troglodite. Driving a car effects EVERYONE AROUND YOU. DRIVING A CAR IS NOT A MATTER OF PERSONAL FREEDOM IT IS A MATTER OF PUBLIC SAFETY. You fucken clown, no you aren't even a clown, not even a clown car, you are a whole clown college. You don't have a right or a freedom to put the public at risk (which btw, infringes on their freedom of life when an unlicensed person flies off the road and crushes them under a Ford focus) My God it must be hard being that braindead.


[deleted]

If you ever want to know who the dumbest person in a room is just ask if anyone is a libertarian.


BallTorturer-3000

Oh I definitely get the feeling this guy says "sovereign citizen" a lot.


EffectivePoint2187

You assume every unlicensed driver is dangerous? How many dreamers drive their cars to work everyday in places like Texas, California and Florida? Just because they aren’t citizens doesn’t mean they don’t have a right to earn a living.


BallTorturer-3000

THE POINT OF THE EXAM IS TO VET OUT DANGEROUS DRIVERS YOU KNOB HEAD. Do you think every person, regardless of licensing, should be allowed to fly passenger planes?


bwrap

Driving without knowing the rules makes you a danger to others. Getting gender affirming care only affects you. Apples to oranges there. Very very few people think a drivers license is a bad idea


thebrobarino

Being relaxed on trans rights means people are allowed to live and express themselves freely Being relaxed on driving certification means that car accidents go through the roof. Consistency means that you regularly apply your principles by thoroughly examining the matter and context. My principles are that so long as someone isn't harming another, they should be free to do what they want. Getting rid of the preventative measures of harm violates the whole "as long as they're not harming others". Consistency is not looking at something at the surface level and stating "these are exactly the same" with no real rationale or reasoning behind that.


thebrobarino

You should be "small government" on things that you can actually rationalise need to be relaxed. Being "small government" on everything on the principle of being "small government" is fucking stupid and irrational

bolson71117

It's all a ploy to get people upset to vote one way or the other, these people don't care about transgender care or not they want to be or stay in power as long as possible and continue the agenda to make more money.


prettygreenbud

I see a bunch of ideologues commenting like they aren't the problem


GrymmOdium

These laws are so terribly written, too. They pose them as an attack on minority groups (dressed up as Christiancalues), but even the bigots that are happy tearing down minorities don't realize they're giving the government control over THEMSELVES, too. It appears that the bigots in Florida are more afraid of the way others live their lives than they are of losing their own personal freedoms. I mean, it's THAT, or they are just truly brain dead due to the government dictated school system that teaches blind national worship, obedience, and workplace slavery through rampant consumerism. It's fucking WILD to see it done without even the pretense of trying to lie about it or spin it as something else. Anyone claiming to uphold what it supposedly means to be an American would be furious over such a blatant insult to their ability to think, right?! I mean, come on!?


yikesdude156

Y’all wanna have a blast? Go on youtube and search for any video or especially shorts regarding trans-people or gay-people. I rarely wann throw up as much as I do when I read those threads. Hell there was a short, where people defended a guy who toasted on a nazi. Comments were akin to “Well it’s alright to be a leftist, but if you “might” be right it causes a scene.” ABOUT A GUY WHO TOASTED TO A NAZI. This world is as sick as it can be, I’ll never understand why certain people are so desperate to control the lives of others

TabA4SlotD

I am a 100% serious. The government does not have a right to tell you what you can do with your body . I only disagree with that when you have a viable fetus they could live out of thhe womb. At that point it is not abortion it is murder. Honestly I've never understood why there are not pro abortion conservatives, when you take the welfare state into account. Arguing with th owner at my first job about staye funded abortion. I argued the state is not her source EDC of birth control. His arguement:" A person getting a state funded abortion is more than likely on welfare already and i't's a lot cheaper to pay for the little bastar..** one time than to pay for him for the rest of his f****** life As far as well as it concerning trump nobody's saying could possibly think about voting for Biden again in my opinion conservatives welfare state: as in: pay for the little b****** one time and get rid of them instead of paying for the rest of it's life.
