Politics General

almost 6 years

Since some users dislike the political discussions on the Sandbox lobby wall, I’ve decided to make a serious thread where people can discuss political issues/tangentially-related discourse.

Please keep name-calling to a minimum and remember that site rules still apply. While this “debate” is not technically “moderated,” I reserve the right to mute anyone who decides to make this thread all about Jamal or Neanderthals or whatever.

Please just try to use this space to contain conversations that are otherwise derailing in other places.

i like how i'm the only unironic vote for authoritarian left


I am also glad. I feel there should be very few votes on either side for authoritarian politics, so I am glad you were the only unironic vote for the authoritarian left.

we're talking about whether or not trans people should have rights, but let's do a little U-turn on the conversation here. we're avoiding a very, very important subject
should cis people have rights?


I will be here for you too. It's okay if you want to hate on people that aren't transgender, they are okay with their identity so they won't mind.

You forgot to put a link where Trump is trans/homophobic. Does this mean you have no evidence?

dzke says

Also, kicking trans people out of the military is indeed a conservative action, but not a transphobe action.


discrimination against trans people on the basis of them being trans is transphobia!!! sorry buster!


SteelixMega says

Transgender people have a 40% suicide rate, and leaving them in military pressure may increase that rate.


trans people have a high suicide rate due to discrimination and social stigmatization, which the military ban only supports (although honestly, i don't sympathize with any trans person who wants to support this shet country)

Also, having to regulate expensive hormones would mess with the budget in medications.

you can order several months' worth of estrogen for less than a hundred dollars

trump is grossly transphobic and homophobic:

it’s legal to fire workers for being transgender.x

telling the supreme court that shopkeepers can turn away lgbt customers.(do i need to link to this? cake case)

withdrawing Title IX protections for trans students.x

kicked trans people out of the militaryx

protects health care workers who don’t help lgbt patientsx

retracting plans to count unmarried lgbt people in the censusx

Ever thought that there were any reasons behind this, other than you suspect the president of being transphobic?
