Why are there posts saying the T in LGBT should be dropped? With what is happening in the US and beyond against the trans community cause for concern that if this is accepted could it be deemed acceptable to start on the LGB community again?

Why are there posts saying the T in LGBT should be dropped? With what is happening in the US and beyond against the trans community cause for concern that if this is accepted could it be deemed acceptable to start on the LGB community again?

What on earth leads you to think that supposed focus is anything other than a misdirection, while they carry on doing everything else?

Do you look forward to being required to register as a sex offender, in various southern states, once that happens?

Even if this had a shot at working for gay people, just as one example, it would still be wrong, but the kicker is it won’t even work.

What is the moral stance on lying? Can you provide examples of when it is appropriate or inappropriate to lie? Does the Bible address this issue?

If you think that the only thing Republicans are targeting are trans people and drag queens, and that they’ll leave you and your friends alone, you are… just plain wrong.

…could it be deemed acceptable to start on the LGB community again?

It is absolutely going to happen to the rest of us, even if we allow Republicans to do everything they want to do to trans people.

Why after 50 years of being straight do I constantly desire to suck cock?

Florida’s “Don’t Say Gay” law, and attempts to pass laws like it in more than dozen other states are explicitly about targeting gay and bi people. No anti-trans animus necessary at all, just good, old, plain vanilla homophobia, same as it ever was.

They’re not doing any of that now. We don’t need to speculate on some imagined future. What on earth leads you to think they won’t start enforcing the sodomy laws they’ve never bothered to repeal, the second they get a chance to overturn Lawrence?

The christian nationalist majority on the Supreme Court isn’t going anywhere, and they will continue to chip away at rights recognition for all queer people, even those of us who are cisgender. To suppose that if we just “drop the T” they’ll embrace us with open arms is monumentally stupid, and requires ignoring the actual reality we’re all forced to live with now that the country has handed power to these lunatics - in some cases, with lifetime judicial appointments.

Why do some men want to remain single despite the fact that many women want to have a romantic relationship with them?

From the minute the Obergefell decision was recorded, Alito and Thomas started dog-whistling their willingness to “revisit” the decision, as soon as they get a test case predicated on the argument they’ve been signaling will work. I fully expect that Obergefell will not survive the current administration.

How do I know this?

The Supreme Court has been signaling for years that they will give christians a carve-out from having to comply with any anti-discrimination law they dislike, or anything else they happen to get their underwear in a bunch over, as long as the case before them uses the magic words “sincerely held religious beliefs.”

Tell me again how these folks are “fiscal conservatives”, and “moderate” and that’s why the “log cabin republicans” supported Trump.

Yes, Republicans get a lot of mileage out of publicly targeting trans people right now, as they have done for the last few years.

Every single time the Employment Nondiscrimination Act gets reintroduced in Congress including protections for sexual orientation, republicans oppose it.

What toxic behavior has been normalized by society?

Because they’ve never, ever stopped going after the rest of us.

Ever.
