They don’t understand the possibility of heterodox rather than heterodox meaning, but because they can barely spell those words, they attack like bad lawyers re: the process rather than the truth, and resort to table pounding — “I cannot read what you wrote; it’s propaganda”. That citation alone, “propaganda” signifies that the person does not in fact know what propaganda actually is, because they are committed to their bias and dogma. Fortunately they are few and far between and at least they can be identified and over the years, fail to have learned anything, especially the reality that any analysis must allow for change, revision, and adaptation. The tendency is for such discourse to be from a privileged population Similarly phallic invasion is a fear manipulated by the ignorant, especially in the attempts to reinforce the gender binary in a world that has more unisex water closets than one imagines. More ridiculous is using state power with judges and cops. x shouldn’t be lost that this is a public school district forcing girls to wear a white dress (and boys to wear a shirt and tie) to graduation. by any rational read of Title IX, the whole thing is plainly illegal. https://t.co/UevBxovW5C — Joshua Erlich (@JoshuaErlich) May 20, 2023 x A lesbian cisgender women is escorted out of the women’s bathroom by police because a Karen called the cops on her think she was a man.

RON DESANTIS JUST TOOK TWO BIG STEPS TO MAKE TRANS LIVES ILLEGAL BILLS SIGNED INTO LAW WEDNESDAY WILL FURTHER RESTRICT TRANS RIGHTS IN HIS STATE, AND THERE’S NO TELLING HOW FAR THE EXTREMIST POLITICIAN WILL GO Florida isn’t only criminalizing medical professionals for providing gender-affirming medical care. The second new law effectively criminalizes trans people themselves. H.B. 1521 bans trans people from using the restroom that fits with their gender identity in most government buildings. Defining sex based on a biological, birth-based definition, the law then limits restroom use in government-owned buildings based on that definition of sex. It applies in prisons and detention facilities, schools, and any public building — which appears to include any government-owned airport, convention center, or stadium. The law forces schools and prisons to create new disciplinary procedures for employees, students, and/or inmates who violate the law — again, for trans people, this means using the restroom that fits their gender identity. For others, and for non-employees in any of those public buildings, the law creates a new criminal violation. The law generally makes it a first-degree misdemeanor whenever a trans person doesn’t leave a restroom when asked to leave by any employee of the government agency that occupies that building. A first-degree misdemeanor can mean up to a year in prison in Florida. For not leaving a bathroom. These new laws will be challenged in court, and all or most of the provisions might even end up being struck down. But that isn’t enough. www.rollingstone.com/...

Then adding, "That joke's from 2007, you're welcome."

The patient, a 23-year-old man, claimed that while he was urinating in a river a candiru jumped from the water into his urethra.
