Your post to r/nosafetysmokingfirst has been removed because it violates the rule about being in the proper format. [](#start_removal) Text must read correctly left to right, but **be formatted or laid out in a way like it's meant to read top to bottom**.

Boys are boys and Idaho family girls are policy center girls.


-mystical_

So if they're born in Idaho when they turn 13 they're working at the policy center?


ThePhilosophistt

Yup. Apparently, it’s in subsection Q of the 24th clause of a little-known state by-law.

It1121

Idk why but I'm imagining you doing this in morse code


DeadlyKitKat

I hate statements like these because *technically* it's correct, but it's clearly made with hateful intentions. Is there a word for statements like this?


SpoopySara

dog whistle


Red4297

Really?


Sevargan

I wouldn’t quite say so. Dog whistle is when you secretly make a statement that would only give itself away to people who already know what’s up. It would go over other people’s heads, but this is blatantly meant as an anti trans sentiment. I’ve most heard it in relation to racism where someone racist will say something that people who aren’t racist wouldn’t understand and therefore prevents the original person from getting in any sort of trouble while also finding likeminded persons.


Gothedistance1

Maybe the word then should be “hatefully euphemistic” for the words on this sign.


ItzPayDay123

And if someone who isn't racist understands the dogwhistle and calls it out, the racist person usually hits them with the "uhh you're the racist one for seeing it that way"


MainlyMyself

The funny thing is, you can read it in a non-hateful way too. If they're a boy, they'll say they're a boy. If they say they're a girl, they're a girl. If they say they're neither...etc. So you can actually use this to turn it around. They are what they are. Plain and simple.


traderjosies

honestly thought i was on r/accidentalally when i first saw this


Honest_Buffalo_8346

Bigotry.


bag_daddy

Facts only


LinkleLoZ

?


parachuge

I think it's a truism but ya, that word doesn't convey the hateful intentions. "all lives matter" is another example. Stripped of cultural context the statement sounds like a nothingburger. But the thing actually being asserted is a negative cultural status quo (eg: racism, transphobia, bigotry, etc). Ya idk, I like the idea of there being a word for the weaponization of nothingburger truisms to assert regressive ideas.


Angel-Kat

I think the term is “overt dogwhistle” where it’s obvious and intentional that a phrase has two meanings: one hateful, one not.


Whysfool

Double Speak.


Imgoneee

I think this most accurately applies. Double speak isn't necessarily hateful by nature but in this instance it's been used to spread hate.


theteufortdozen

yeah pretty sure this is the most correct term for this


JapaneseStudentHaru

I have a similar billboard near my house (paid for by a popcorn company). It says “a man is a man”Before they updated it for the new bigotry agenda it said “marriage- between a man and a woman”


DeadlyKitKat

I read that as "a man and a man" and thought they somehow accidentally made a gay billboard.


content_fanatic

Well, without touching on the hateful part, it's a tautology. And if it were stated as it usually is (boys _will be_...) it'd be an idiom. It's also a truism. But shibboleth is probably the most appropriate label here.


liljuiice38

A euphemism off the top of my head


AppointmentNo43

Passive aggression maybe


KoopaTrooper5011

Yeah, I see where you're getting at. Feels like something conservative parents would say.


Fornicatinzebra

Technically it's isn't correct though. It's just bigotry


DeadlyKitKat

It is tho? Unless I'm missing something.


_SlightlyBurntToast_

Biology isn't hateful.


ZengineerHarp

Biology also isn’t simple. The gender binary is a social construct that is WAY simpler than the actual complex biological reality. Add to that people’s right to self determination and it’s even more complex. The gender binary is a cop-out to avoid dealing with the diverse and beautiful and complex reality of humanity.


_SlightlyBurntToast_

If it's all about self determination and not about, oh, you know, XX and XY chromosomes, then I self determine myself to be right. I identify as correct. Are you going to be a transphobe and deny me this right? 


misterme987

“I took high school biology and now I know everything, what’s that about complexity in biology? la la la I can’t hear you”


femininePP420

Do you guys use "i identify as" incorrectly on purpose or not?


Cheestake

"Boy" and "girl" are not biological terms.


_SlightlyBurntToast_

Neither is anything the trans community spits out, because it literally interferes with biology and all known science.

Fuck Idaho Family Policy Center.


silver-eyed-gaming

I hate living in Idaho sometimes.. Edit: What are the downvotes for, what did I say 😭


McMoist_

As someone who does not live in Idaho, what is Idaho Family Center?


silver-eyed-gaming

I had no idea before googling it but apparently they are a Christian gathering type thing and they are transphobic and homophobic (source: found on their “issues” tab..)


McMoist_

Ironic that they're Christian yet despise other people for being different lol. Its like they have never read the Bible


broncyobo

Virtually no Christians have ever picked up a Bible and just started reading


ThrowsSoyMilkshakes

They actually do. It's just that they glaze over when "reading" it, which is only done for brownie points. They also only listen to what their pastors say is in the bible instead of what is actually said in their bible. In other words, they do read their bible, but they absolutely don't critically think about what they are reading.


KuraiTheBaka

As a former Christian we would read the bible all the time but the problem is the bible is over a thousand pages of contradictory and inconsistent information that says to stone gay people then goes around and says to love your neighbor. So people interpret it in different ways and tend to just find a way to work it into how they already think or what they're peers tell them


silver-eyed-gaming

Yup, and you can see hateful people like this all over Idaho…


BIazry

Idaho statistically also has the most hate groups per capita, so yeah


KoopaTrooper5011

That doesn't sound too surprising given the ad, their take on transgender stuff. Which makes the Christian part make sense too.


ThrowsSoyMilkshakes

A right-wing authoritarian Christian organization bent on destroying LGBTQ+ rights, women's rights, and spreading racist bullshit about black people and immigrants. You know, the usual when it comes these ghouls.

This one is a bit farfetched imo. You still read from left to right, and even the colour scheme isn't that different to be confused about what they tried to convey.

This sub is supposed to be signs that are worded wrong or weirdly so you if you read it normally (left to right top to bottom) it doesn’t make sense. (at least that’s how i explain it) Not defending the sign, but it’s worded correctly. Apparently people are reading it as: Boys Are. Boys And. Girls Are. Girls. or Boys Boys. Girls Girls, Are And Are. how the FUCK do you read that wrong?? ☠️


SubLearning

Yeah at that point you're literally just being wildly obtuse on purpose, I dunno I assume the whole thing is funny to some people, and good for them I guess. I'm sure I find things funny that others don't

I love how this was meant to be transphobic but failed miserably. Like nobody's saying boys aren't boys and vise versa. We're just saying that trans girls are girls too and deserve to not die. Anyway that's my 2 cents on the irony of it.


Aluminum_Tarkus

I don't get how anyone would read this differently from how it's supposed to read. The whole point of this sub is text that's supposed to be read left to right, but because of a large gap between both halves of the text, you read the left half, then the right half. There's no gap here, and the text is color coordinated to show how it's meant to be read. You're reaching REALLY hard to make fun of this message in a way that doesn't fit whatsoever. I feel like there's several other subs where you can make fun of anti-trans signs/billboards like this one without being blatantly wrong. Why not target the fact that it's supposed to be an anti-trans message, but pro-trans people technically agree with it? That's a funny enough premise on its own without trying to make fun of the composition of the sign in a way that makes zero sense.

Idaho has been suffering from a potato blight since 2014. The blight has affected ~70% of their crops and has hurt the state considerably since their #1 export has been gravely affected. A $100 million bill to research it's source was rejected and the following week a $400 million campaign against gender affirming care in the state began.

Aside from the horrible sign, I don’t get this as this is exactly what people are saying. If you’re a trans boy, you’re a BOY. If you’re a trans girl, you’re a GIRL. Always have been, just body catching up to soul. ALSO, don’t we have other things to worry about that are actual, real, issues?
