As someone who has a family, its probably not safe to have girls in a red state.

But see, according to my awful family in Oklahoma, they voted for Trump specifically to keep their daughters safe from all the pedophile trans people who are raiding the bathrooms of their grade school like orcs sieging Helm’s Deep. Sure, their daughters now have no reproductive rights and they’ve never seen or met a single trans person, but this was definitely the best decision to keep them safe and healthy.

Its literally the conservative social media capture. Was fixing some dude’s computer today and shit like what you’re saying was bursting out of his phones “its a slippery slope, next it will be pedophiles are okay and they are all actually blah blah blah blah…” How many trans people you know? I’ve been around and only met 3 that I know by name. They don’t have the numbers to seige shit and they aren’t a homogeneous group. Its fucken weaponized ignorance.

Anti-science, inactivism, and unsupported conspiracy theories are not ok here.
