Maybe it’s an unpopular opinion, but why even give them this line of attack to begin with? You’ll get no argument from me about the necessity of a tran’s awareness day (they deserve more), but why risk losing squishy moderates when delaying the proclamation by a single day could lessen the potential blowback?

Because it's been a thing since 2009 and anyone that was going to be lost over this was never going to vote for Biden.

Honestly, probably because Easter won’t be anywhere near the final day of March and the 1st of April probably isn’t a great idea to make a holiday due to April Fool’s. :shrug:

Easter will be on Adolph Hitler’s birthday next year so by the same logic, the Christians are celebrating the birthday of a man whose madness led to millions of Polish, Jewish, developmentally disabled and LGBTQ folks being systematically slaughtered. Kinda tasteless of them to choose that day!

Because gently caress you if you think Biden should throw trans people under the bus in the vain hope that the fascists will so much as pretend that it'd change how much they want to see "the libs" murdered?

Moderates don't care and only the online outrage machine gives a poo poo. In both polls and actual votes attacks on trans end up being unpopular and only in the bizarre echo chambers of the terminal Twitter chuds is this a real issue.

It’s honestly the first time I’ve heard of either of these and I assumed they were both brand new initiatives. I only asked because despite my best efforts, I’m still hyper-fixated on the election and terrified of these assholes being given any kind of leverage. I should have known they would make poo poo up whole cloth to have something to be outraged over.

The thing you have to remember is that there is no such thing as "giving Republicans leverage". If you refrain from doing something because it will "give Republicans leverage" then the Republicans will just make up "leverage" out of something else and be just as loud and angry.

Do not ever let what you do be dictated by what Republicans think.

I have had NIN’s “Heresy” running through my head throughout today

quote:

He sewed his eyes shut because he is afraid to see
He tries to tell me what I put inside of me
He got the answers to ease my curiosity
He dreamed a god up and called it Christianity

God is dead
And no one cares
If there is a hell
I'll see you there

He flexed his muscles to keep his flock of sheep in line
He made a virus that would kill off all the swine
His perfect kingdom of killing, suffering and pain
Demands devotion, atrocities done in his name

God is dead
And no one cares
If there is a hell
I'll see you there

Your god is dead
And no one cares
If there is a hell
I'll see you there

Will you die for this?(x4)

God is dead
And no one cares
If there is a hell
I'll see you there (your god is dead)

God is dead (and no one cares)
And no one cares (drowning in his own hypocrisy)
If there is a hell (burning with your God in humility)
I'll see you there

In exchange for angering Biden's actual rather than theoretical supporters, moving the Trans Day of Awareness plays into the Conservative "unholy" bigotry and implies Trans people are incapable of being Christian.
And for that gift, Republicans would still cry that it was too close and happening at all.

Didnt Biden's term literally have a triple holiday alignment with Easter, some Jewish, and some Muslime holiday lining up last year?

e: calendars are weird and stupid, like we still let the traditions of iron age civilization farming civ dictate our election dates and business hours.

IMO the only thing keeping the GOP in any semblance of power is a Tuesday election where people are forced to go to work. Make it a weekend or (better) a holiday, and you'll see huge turnout and the modern GOP relegated to a distant 3rd place behind a not-as-insane GOP, the Dems, or god willing, a more leftist party.

While I'm dreaming I'd like ranked-choice voting, a parliament, and a pony. Thanks.

I think you may be misreading their post, they are saying that moving the day would upset people who support Biden, would give ammunition to the radical right, and then they would still complain after it was moved. So the poster is saying it should not be moved.
