So this is next step for american republicans?
Technically yes. Previous laws were also drafted with the help of some republican-adjacent organizations, not to mention that CitizenGo, the dhristofascist org that pushed the Ugandan gay genocide law, is being bankrolled by both Russian and US far-right adjacent oligarchs. Any free country that does not consider CitizenGo a threat to safety, liberty, and secularism, are committing suicide.
You mean the previous step? It seems to be what they’re working on now
Have they actually got something in the pipeline.
Tough fucking luck. If healthcare is private in the US, it’s none of their business, the state doesn’t get a say.
I legitimately can’t imagine how awful it must be to be trans in Russia. Well, pretty much anywhere really, now that I think of it. Trans people just can’t catch a break. I feel so bad for them.
You and me both, fam. I can’t even imagine how it must be for a trans person to live in the US south - it is just mind-baffling to think of what it must be in other countries that barely even recognize any of those rights or are even outright hostile to the identity.
I can’t speak for every trans person in the South, but for me, it’s pretty fucking awful.
Part of it is my area(lot of old white conservatives). They really don’t give a fuck. I have had to listen to 10 minute rants about gender politics because they want a pink gender reveal cake.
We did multiple cake variations for Valentine’s. All stick figures. We “dared” to put rainbows on a couple of them. We had to get rid of them because people complained about STICK FIGURES under rainbows.
I have to make sure I’m in a safe place to even begin feeling like myself.
I imagine this is why many people that might consider it just dont. It’s easier sometimes to just do the expected things at the expense of one’s self.
Here in Ontario is pretty good for me as a trans person, well at least in terms of my being trans. I feel fortunate.
True, but there are definitely places where it’s much better to be trans than others, and Russia’s near the bottom of the pack.
I really hope some countries will provide asylum, but I doubt that
“Hi! I’m the news! Today, the Russian government did a bad thing!”
—Every day, it seems
This comment isn’t meant to trivialize the action, it’s just becoming almost comical how much the Kremlin is taking a dump on human rights.
The funny thing is, it’s the BBC reporting. That institution beholden to a party that is committed to making the issue a volatile political football.
Can we add a rule where all articles should be archive articles to avoid incidentally paying a shitty company ad revenue. In this case an organisation that houses and protects child predators.
Sup, you might want to raise that within feedback channels within your instance. Threads like this one are seen by many instances so there’s going to be disagreement in the votes. It’s a perfectly fair thing to do though, years ago we banned direct links to the BBC in the UK left’s largest subreddit /r/greenandpleasant (i mod) for its transphobia.
God I miss greenandpleasant; it’s really the only thing I miss from Reddit. :(
Here was being considered as a potential lifeboat although getting people to migrate would be slow and any new community would be small, but the soft on meta position of the instance made a mess of internal thoughts on what to do.
Sad that so many people live under such an oppressive government. Some people have started hating Russians but I feel bad for most of them.
They’re a huge country with all kinds of resources. If the government supported the people instead of keeping them under their heel, Russia could be an advanced, wealthy country with a rich culture. Instead we got Mafia in the Kremlin.
don’t make the mistake to think this is a government only problem. Sure not all Russians are pro-war or pro-putin but a majority of them supports their leader, his efforts and this mindset, they are basically fine with all that crap.
So again to blame all russians is wrong but this is also not only putins fault, a lot of russian people are also heavy involved in this kind of lifestyle.
Call it what it actually is: genocide
While I am utterly against laws like this, “genocide” is too much.
What you are doing is just wiping of history of genocide done by different countries (mostly western), by using word for something that is much less than systematically killing millions and even hundreds of millions, just take this as an example: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Genocide_of_indigenous_peoples and than decide which word you will use.
Pointing out the genocide of trans people doesn’t erase the history of other genocides…
nice priority…with the state of things you expect them to vote for important things, but of course why not make life worse for something like 0.1% of the population
That’s the point they are so few people why care either way

I’m in a better position to know than you, and you’re just wrong. I suspect deep down you know that though; you’re just a bigot.

I love that my simply existing can trigger a nazi like you so easily. You must know your anger changes nothing at all. Just a scared angry little person you are, raving and ranting.
You are conflating sex and gender. It is you being ignorant. Not surprising from someone who thinks Hitlers nazi Germany was the height of a state though.

I can’t tell if you’re serious or not. I hope you’re not. The fact that you’ve made two scientifically verifiable errors, gender = sex, and asserted it’s only a binary scale, suggests to me you’re not, in which case you should rethink joking about this - not everyone will get it.
Biology is more complicated than your poor attempts to draw lines and parcel up stuff nicely so your brain won’t hurt. Transgender people have existed from before you were born.
Stfu
Your caregivers created a broken person.
The person you’re responding to has also commented “You are obviously referencing hitler, a man who lead his country to the greatest heights it had see in a long time, until the western world decided he was evil.”
Their opinions are obviously worthless.
