    Imagine how gay people felt trying to get married until just a few years ago.

    Banned for simply existing.

    How about trans people trying to travel into or out of a country. Or applying for a job and having to submit their deadname and their birth sex revealing their medical history. Or getting pulled over and getting interrogated over their ID. Or trying to take a leak while at the office or a restaurant and being told they have to leave.

    Banned for simply existing.

    How about being born as a visible minority and getting stopped and frisked just for being in public.

    Banned for simply existing.

    But not being on Bluesky? That’s taking things too far!

        I have no idea what all the effects of that executive order are, but yeah I could see that being the case now in a lot of places.

        Marriage affects your taxes, your ability to buy in a house as a couple, adoption, your will/estate, being in the hospital… A lot of important things.

        It’s really basic human rights.

    Loomer finally gets to feel what its like to be the people she vehemently discrimates against, yet I get a feeling she won’t learn a damned thing from that.

        I sent this to a friend and they replied with this meme

        They went onto to say “idk, each time I think I understand what Hegel was saying, I think a little more and get confused again”, which I think is (as the kids say) a tremendous mood

          Hegel didn’t understand what he was saying himself.
          He basically invented a new language, while probably taking copious amounts of halucinogenics.
