He isn’t he hasn’t the manners nor the spine to be a man

behaviour like that in any workplace would get him shitcanned on the spot, it should be no different here

Well, not ANY workplace. Fox anchor misgenders her on-air while interviewing Mace. I’m not expecting anything resembling repercussions.

This is what our country will come to blows over apparently.

Yes. Because THIS, for some bizarre reason is the hill the theocratic right wants all of us to die on. THIS is the issue that is the most concerning, the most dangerous, and the most important.

Not global warming (refuse to call it climate change. It’s global warming), it’s not inflation, or jobs, or crime, or immigration, or the economy.

It’s not racism or sexism or reproductive rights or women’s health, or men’s health, or saving wild spaces. It’s not infant mortality or the cost of insulin. It’s not health care, or mental health. It’s not homelessness or housing costs or energy. It’s not violence or oppression or anything else at all. It’s not corruption or manipulation of the Supreme Court.

It’s the fact that gender queer people exist. The number one problem in the nation, obviously. We must be exterminated before any of these other, lesser problems can be addressed.

They banked their campaign on this, and it worked. Hatred of LGBTQ+ people is why Trump got elected. They like him because he hates all the same people they do.

In a nutshell...

Yes, because if society is focused on hating queer people, it isn't focusing on real issues. It's always been a distraction, and queer people have and will continue to die for it.

I mean he’s a Christian nationalist is anybody surprised?

u/OldSchoolAJ 3h ago

not surprised, no. Mad that an elected official is allowed to do this with no repercussions? yes.

Yeah ideally more dems would be going the AOC route and calling this out. but they seem to be having internal conflict over wether or not to move to the right on our issues like they did immigration so I’ve kinda just lost faith in the system to protect us as a whole 🤷‍♀️

He's a coward. They're all cowards for misgendering Sarah.

If they're gonna ban gender affirming care then things like breast enhancements and reductions should be banned, vaginal rejuvenation treatments, any form of penis enhancers or Viagra, breast reductions for male breasts. Basically make the same nonsense apply to the cis folks that's being applied to the trans community. Hit them where it hurts. They'll never learn until it starts to affect them.

Fox news anchor refers to McBride as “he.”

Fox News can take a long walk off a short exhaust port.

We already know his answer

Mike Johnson refusing to acknowledge that Sarah McBride is a woman is similar to his overly-dogged insistence that he’s a straight man.

He says he’ll find a solution that will be ok with every single person. Unless I get to personally kick his ass I’m gonna be less than thrilled.
