Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!

Rules:

  1. Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.

Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.

Example:

  1. Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
  2. Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
  3. No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
  4. Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
  5. No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning

We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.

All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.

That's all the rules!

Fyi, the reason it's noteworthy is he put them in boys toilets and boys don't menstruate. Which is weird

[–] Rakonat@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

Transmasc students who use boys toilets still menstruate unless on some serious hormone therapy.

Really this country should gave gone to unisex toilets generations ago

[–] thebrownhaze@lemmy.world 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

That is a fraction of a fraction of a percent of people. Making all toilets wheelchair accessible would probably help more.

Problem is, women hate it when men use their toilets

Wow your post history is weird.

Cis this cis that, election fraud, echo chamber, echo chamber, echo chamber! ( and it goes on )

Pointing out people are crazy? Guilty

I'm not deleting your comment just so you see how many people disagree with you and keep reading the replies. It's 2024, not the nineteenth century, and transphobia and misoginia only makes you and everyone else worse off.

Am I supposed to take this as a kindness or some kind of threat? I couldn't give a rats fart what any of the loonies on this site think anything I say

I came here thinking it may me a more sane alter to Reddit, holy shit I was wrong.

This is like 2016 tumbler, but you all think then world is like this

Grumpy much? This little corner of the internet is what you make it...

[–] thebrownhaze@lemmy.world -1 points 3 months ago (1 children)

As long as you are an identity obsessed leftist

[–] warl0x@feddit.nl 0 points 3 months ago (1 children)

"Identity obsessed" says the guy that seems to care what health products go in which bathrooms based on identity?

[–] thebrownhaze@lemmy.world -1 points 3 months ago

Not their identity, their sex.

It's not weird if you have non-binary kids using the boys restroom.

Here's the Republican logic:

Trans kids shouldn't exist.
Trans kids shouldn't be allowed to transition.
Trans kids shouldn't be allowed puberty blockers.
Trans kids shouldn't have access to basic health products necessary for human dignity.

Republicans want to do everything they can to marginalize trans kids, make life difficult for trans kids and, ultimately, make it even more likely that trans kids will try to kill themselves than they already do, and that rate is damned high enough as it is.

Let me put it to you another way maybe you can understand...

Are you going to tell Buck Angel he's not allowed to have tampons in the men's room? 'Cause I have news for you...

[–] thebrownhaze@lemmy.world -1 points 3 months ago

Non binary is a fad that we will not hear about in 15 years

I'm not a republican.

I'm one of them. your opinion is irrelevant.

[–] BigMacHole@lemm.ee -1 points 3 months ago

I'm a Pro Life Republican trying to Save The Children and it's SOCIALISM to use MY Tax Dollars giving Girls TAMPONS! MY Tax Dollars should ONLY be used for Billionaire's YACHTS and Millionaire's ABORTIONS! NOT Poor Girl's TAMPONS!
