    yeahhhhh… hasanabi was right, targeting trans sports was the easiest and dirtiest way to bring transphobia to the normies. people that don’t even give a shit about politics and don’t think about trans people one way or another can say “well at least sports are fair now”

      Trans sports is where the boundaries between what people do with their own body is crossed into interaction with others. This is why it has become the favorite point to attack for conservatives.

        Fascists, not conservatives. A real conservative would say „lets fix the streets in front of our houses before we go to war in other countries.“

        The overton window for conservatism has been shifting over decades. We need to go back to: progressiveness means try new stuff and conservatism means interjecting when old stuff should be kept bc its been working very well.

        I think thats also what the vast majority of the world think what politics should be. The rest is just billionaire robberbarons manipulating and pitting us against each other.

        Of course there are trans people. There always have been. A good conservative would accept that. Those who dont are fascists.

        In germany we had a lot of those. Search for nuremberg trials. Nazis hate that trick.
