@deft Okay, that’s an “ew” from me, then. 🤷♂️😅
@PenguinTD @sik0fewl Anyone on Trump’s “enemies list” faces death-threats for themselves and even their families, from MAGA cult members. The GOP is acknowledging this, but not trying to do anything about it. https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2024/1/11/2216659/-COWARD-J-D-Vance-says-the-quiet-part-out-loud-endorse-Orange-Jesus-or-fear-his-wrath
@burntbutterbiscuits @NarrativeBear I always told my kids, as they approached driving age, that the laws of physics trump the laws of man where cars are involved.
@nik282000 @BlameThePeacock Did you mean $100k?
@baconisaveg I (a straight guy) had crushes on girls in grade 1. Are you saying no one realizes at that age that they’re attracted to people? Or that only straight people can be attracted to people at such an age?
And what’s this “you people” bullshit? Where does that come from, in this comversation?
@baconisaveg @jadero My daughter began wondering whether she was trans at around nine or ten, because she realized she was attracted to girls and thought that this must mean she was meant to be a man. Spoiler: No, she’s just gay. 😉
Our culture is the straight, cis-gendered water in which everyone swims. When you’re old enough to recognize that you’re different, of course you’re going to worry about why, and what it means.
@baconisaveg I’m not the only person suspecting what “parents’ rights” means to many or most of the rightwing advocates of it. While I often side-eye people using Youtube to back up their claims, I do think this particular Youtuber succinctly lays out the often problematic use of “parents’ rights”. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mNOmFBw1I_M&t=6s
@PenguinJuice @sik0fewl @Voroxpete Three.
@Voroxpete @sik0fewl Many probably would. Many “parental rights” people view their children as more akin to property than people.
