The GOP's proposed national platform is extremely transphobic
It also promises to protect Christians who discriminate against LGBTQ+ people.
Transphobic, homophonic, xenophobic.
What's the right word for science phobic?
Moron fits nicely enough.
What's the word for "doing the right thing" phobic and "being a decent person" phobic?
Ah I think that's just called being a republican.
Scientiphobic? It at least jams the right Latin words together.
At this point, what aren't they scared of?
That's just because they still feel safe in public bigotry against trans folks. They still have all the old bigotries too; Muslims, atheists, gays, non protestant/evangelical Christians, black people, etc they just know if they come out publically against those demographics they'll never win an election. So they use coded language, instead of the n word in public they say DEI, diversity, urban, etc. When ranting against trans folks in public they try to equivocate how people dress with being overtly sexual because that's the same bs their pastor or political leader told them to think. The reason they scapegoat trans folks is because they are rare so most people especially in low population rural areas don't have any trans friends or interact with trans folks on a regular basis to correct the isolationist demonization pushed by many churches and political conservatives.
They are coming for the majority of America, too. One way or another, most people will fall outside the narrow inner circle that is considered a "real" Merrikan.
I'm definitely not white or straight enough for Project 2025.
It reminds me of a certain country in the 1920s that had chosen a small segment of the population as superior...hmmm...which country was that again? Dutchland?
/s, kinda
Have you not heard Biden Old?
Yeah no shit this isn't news
The GOP
's proposed national platformis extremely transphobicSounds about right as they say.
Approximately 88% of congress identifies as Christian. Does that mean we need to get rid of most Democrats & Biden too since they are Christians who discriminate against LGBTQ+ people?
You are making a false equivalency between "being Christian" and "being a bigot". While there is a high correlation, particularly with some denominations of Christianity, they are not synonymous. (Heck, I've seen some religious groups at my local Pride celebrations for years.)
Presumably you're aware of this.
Yes, but people aren't ready for that talk
Exactly... Democrats & Republicans both enable the very same organizations that promote anti-LGBTQ+ attitudes. They've allowed cults to take over America.
It's too bad that being a xtian, like being a con, is over-represented in our Congress.
The GOP is transphobic, not transformer.
