This will probably be controversial, but as a millennial I’d change over to be a zoomer if I could
Fun fact, trans people are twice as likely to serve in the military as opposed to the general population (for now)
With allies like these on Lemmy who the fuck needs enemies. So anytime we want to throw trans people under the bus just add it to a funding bill? Would y’all be singing the same tune if these provisions targeted gay people? Black? Jewish? At what point does an anti trans law cross the line for y’all? How many rights do we have to lose before you’ll speak up?
That man could make me smile no matter what mood I’m in
They literally did lose the war on gay acceptance. It became politically infeasible for conservatives to run on anti-gay platforms. That’s the entire reason they switched all of their efforts towards trans people.
Now, do they plan to come after gay people once they’ve annihilated trans people? Absolutely. There is no chance they have forgotten about them as their ideology does not allow minorities to exist as equals and they are 100% using trans people as their foot in the door to eventually come after everyone else.
If we’re being real here the reason is because they lost the war on gay acceptance and needed a new target to direct their hate towards.
For context, by this time last year there were 80 anti-trans bills filed. The total of anti-trans bills filed for all of 2024 was 669. In 2023 the total anti trans bills filed was 615 and in 2022 the total was 174.
Think about where this is heading and do anything in your power to stop it now before it’s too late.
They could save this but not stop the first national anti LGBT legislation in thirty years that’s cool

Whenever a populist candidate pops up, the dnc does everything it can to crush them.
The amount of gaslighting we’re experiencing for things that are already in motion is ridiculous. People would rather bury their heads in the sand than acknowledge reality
Don’t worry the incoming administration has gone on record numerous times about cracking down on veteran disability…
For anyone with any doubt about OP’s comment, here’s the current landscape for specifically anti-trans bills:
668 bills considered just this year. 1200 in the past two years. 84 national bills proposed this year. Tell me any minority in the history of the earth that has had this much legislation levied against them.
Next year the Republicans will be able to pass these bills carte blanche. It’s looking bleak out there y’all
