House Speaker Johnson announces transgender bathroom ban—on Trans Day of Remembrance

So pathetic and petty. What did this person ever do to them? The mental gymnastics needed to justify using the freaking House of the United States to punish a single person who they likely have never met, for an immutable personal trait? It gives me a headache to even try to understand it.
Simple, it's just an excuse to be hateful. It's not complicated.
One of the big downsides to pretending 100% of Holocaust victims were Jewish is that the 50% who weren't were sent to the camps for other reasons.

And then America, who had taken in all types of Nazis scientists, denied Turing entry just to fucking take a vacation.
I think this is why so many people are shocked by trump winning, people actually believed Americans were inherently good, and they believed it.
Keep in mind that the incoming administration and it's cultists don't seem to be interested in distancing themselves from Hitlwr and his Nazis.
Nobody is pretending. They aren't taught about the other 6 million people at all.
Fwiw Jews made a pretty big deal about making sure everyone remembered, and look where we're at when Atlas shrugs for the length of an upward mobility. I think it was making a difference and necessary in the face of a decades-long dismantling of the public education system.
Exist.
The Republican party has used hate and fear to make a significant portion of our society hate the IDEA of other people existing. None of these people know or interact with trans people, or they wouldn't hate them. I know trans people. Spoiler Alert: they're just people. That's it. But the Republican party is brainwashing Americans to believe they aren't.
Hate won in America a few weeks ago.
