A group having rights does not take rights away from you. It's not pie.

Post memes here.
A meme is an idea, behavior, or style that spreads by means of imitation from person to person within a culture and often carries symbolic meaning representing a particular phenomenon or theme.
An Internet meme or meme, is a cultural item that is spread via the Internet, often through social media platforms. The name is by the concept of memes proposed by Richard Dawkins in 1972. Internet memes can take various forms, such as images, videos, GIFs, and various other viral sensations.

May I introduce you to Christians? Or how about the GOP? MAGA would like to also have a word. I could go on…
Why keep focusing on a single group?
"Part of my religion is forced evangelism. The government getting in the way of me forcing my religion on others violates my Freedom of Religion."

Also, a group having pie does not take pie away from you. It's not unobtanium.
Nope, but it does work toward balancing the scales of power, and christian cis white men hate that with a passion, and they conflate any perceived loss of power with oppression.
This is one of the things that bother me with people being anti-trans. Why the hell do they care? There is nothing, NOTHING that trans people are asking for that bother me, because it does not affect my life. I don't see how it affects theirs either.
There are two things I know little about when it comes to trans.
-
How to make it fair in sports, but I really don't care for sports. So I haven't researched it. Don't really care if they participate, but I don't take sports seriously anyways.

How to protect vulnerable people from themselves. This is probably contraversial, but I am for giving trans people the treatment they need to transition, or at least make sure it is possible at a later stage by giving hormones / blockers. So that they can transition a bit older.
However (the controversial part) many trans people are vulnerable and also struggle with other issues and operations is often permanent. This is something that I don't believe is easy to decide, I am ignorant here, I trust medical professionals, psychologists, psychiatrists and the trans community to come up with guidelines / practice here. It is however not something that I think politicians should decide, or is competent in deciding.
The only reason I care about point 2 is to protect people from mistakes, not to stop trans people from transitioning!
Thanks for reading my rant 😊
How to make it fair in sports, but I really don’t care for sports. So I haven’t researched it. Don’t really care if they participate, but I don’t take sports seriously anyways.
I personally don't think sports should be gendered, but people should be placed in different "leagues".
Similar to how chess players with similar ratings play with each other.
Atheletes should be categorized by skill, regardless of gender.
Fun fact, a recent study reported that cis women have an advantage over trans women in sports due to their higher testosterone levels allowing them to build more muscle mass.
You know, the same argument transphobes use against letting trans people be athletes because of their supposed "biological advantage."
Which is the same one that's been used for almost a century now to ban black women from women's sports due to their naturally higher testosterone levels when compared to white women.
As if they give a shit about science. They only use it when the results match their worldview. Otherwise they just ignore it.

Did you think about: They’re icky?
… 🙄
Also if someone could link where I could get one of these stickers that’d be great :)

There’s some good shit in this store. I got the MAGA stickers.
Thank you!!! These are good shit!
They only care because they were told to care. It’s a distraction and satisfies their desire to punch down on vulnerable people. They are spineless cucks who want daddy trump to tell them what to think.
I think you underestimate the degree to which late 2010's pronoun compliance demands superceded the "live and let live" mantra the success of the LGBT movement depended on.

This meme is great because the end part of the slogan is so versatile
It does something negative to my life- namely it makes me very scared for their safety. Especially in the U.S.
But that is not their fault. It's the fault of the bigots who hate them for existing.
Oh wow I saw this bumper sticker in the wild yesterday and I couldn't tell what the image on the left was.
A transformer
You sure? It look like a Warhammer Character.
Chaos space marine from 40k, yes.

I feel like I should tattoo the verses they seem to ignore on their foreheads backwards so they have to see it every time they look in the mirror: Love thy neighbor as thyself and Judge not lest ye be judged. Hypocrites.
Is the use of what looks like the Black Legion because they are trans humans? They are very much a danger to humans. Or is the Emperor here a symbol of intolerance.
Even tho' I agree with the sentiment of the sticker.. Tbh in a real life situation I will side with the Emperor every time as it in the lore is the only thing that stops my soul from being devoured by warp spawn when I die. Fuck traitor space Marines.

You can order these online. Here's mine:
The Emperor protects trans kids
Put it on your car and take another picture to show that you did. Being an ally for internet clout isn't enough. Sorry for posting a bunch on a single thread, I guess I kinda care a lot about this.
It's fine to post a meme without following your orders. Jesus Christ.

If you would like your own you can find "punk with a camera" online or at many large punk rock events in the US. He produces these as bumper stickers and t-shirts. He has other great designs as well.
