Oh, and shoot one of the guys in the chest before turning around and going back inside. Oh, and the gun I used to shoot the guy was picked up by the guy who shot me and then they left. Who the gently caress picks up a murder/assault weapon, with a wounded person in the car?

This man has the most hilariously out-of-step positions with her district ever. Like I assumed he would be running as a centristish Bloomberg-style Republican but nope full MAGA idiot.

Ague Proof posted:A disturbing number of terrible men really want the excuse to beat up trans women and be treated like a hero for it. There was an obviously fabricated story tweeted of a 'self-identified woman' following a little girl into the bathroom only to be assaulted by the girl's father who makes some lame quip. The comments (yes I read the comments) were just people celebrating and promising more of the same in this disturbing rage-orgy. Anyone who pointed out the story was made up got the satire response even though there was no indication and the audience clearly thought it was real, the kind of propaganda that can have deadly consequences. It's very, very sad and enraging. Homophobic straight men are so terrified of being called "gay" for being attracted a trans-woman that they will literally murder people over it. It's insane. The argument doesn't even make any sense because trans-women are women and present as women. How is it "gay" to be attracted to a person who presents as/looks like a woman? It's so loving dumb. By their logic a man being attracted to a trans-man isn't "gay" (despite trans-men presenting as men) because of what...genitals that you can't readily see? Chromosomes that you definitely can't see? It's so loving stupid.

Yeah Almost as if our notions of gender/sexuality are all made up by society and only mean things because we collectively decide they do! I hope things get better on this front because it's truly awful and the trans community deserves so much better than what they've gotten from the world.

axeil posted:It's so loving stupid. The pathology (edit to add: of the aggressors) is even deeper than that. Part of the reason there's a push for people to have "get out of gay free card" is because a large subset of the people who are performatively outraged that trans people exist are also trans-chasers. There's a big group of men who have sex with transwomen because they have a specific fetish for women with penises. Which of course, makes them gay. Only it doesn't, because that's impossible. So it's a trap. Which is a crime so the sexy transwoman needs to die! ... ish. The overlap of cultural baggage, gender, and sexuality is a massive clusterfuck which has a lot of competing (and totally conflicting) theories to explain it. But ultimately it's a case of cognitive dissonance writ large: "I'm someone I can't be because being that would be wrong, therefore it's your fault." It's the cornerstone of most social conservatism. It's why you so commonly see the anti-gay preacher slurpin' D and the anti-trans orator being way more likely to murder a trans person. We don't have adequate mental health care for people who have issues they feel they aren't allowed to express, so poo poo gets warped. See also: Iran with tons of transwomen but no gay men. Social oppression and cultural taboos lead to some wild poo poo. [quick and dirty: sexual oppression can manifest in gender dysphoria through a feeling of being born incorrectly as a response to the fear of ostracization and death -- it happens in fundie circles too, but not as often; Iran's punishment for homosexuality is death, while being trans is legal -- it by no means suggests that all transwomen would have been gay men, but it does feed into social pathology being a big, beautiful mess.] Ershalim fucked around with this message at 21:02 on Oct 8, 2019 |

I'm so glad we fought off HQ2 in Queens. That was such a bullshit scam. Amazon conned nearly every major city in the US out of tons of data for free with the vague promise of ~*jobs*~ that they're going to use for years to come to have a competitive advantage.

That's not what I was trying to say. You're totally right that there are plenty of bigots who are bigots for other (or no) reasons. Sorry for the badly phrased and possibly poorly understood tangent. I'll have to research it more so I don't come across any worse than I seem to have already.
