Pod Save America brought on Bill Maher to spew easily disproven anti-trans talking points.

They keep saying they’re not anti-trans and trying to walk back statements they make.

I have offered to go on their show to talk.

I’m offering again now.

Talk to a freaking trans person.
New PSA this Sunday, Bill Maher and Lovett mix it up, worth a listen

Susan Faludi talks about this in "Backlash" too: In the '80s tons of men were told 'we can't hire you because we have to hire a woman' even though companies weren't hiring very many women. Managers were just too chickenshit to tell men they weren't qualified.
this confirms something i have long suspected, which is that certain people are told that their professional and academic failures are because of “affirmative action” or “DEI” as a way to avoid difficult conversations about their mediocrity www.wsj.com/lifestyle/ca...
You Blamed DEI for Hurting Your Career. Now What?
For people who pin their failures on diversity, corporate America’s DEI retreat removes a barrier—or maybe an excuse.

1. Yesterday, Montana's Judiciary Committee voted to advance a bathroom ban for trans adults along party lines.

The rationale a Republican used? That some trans women are attracted to women.

It begs the question how he feels about lesbians in bathrooms.

I had a walk today and thought about the relationship between civility, discomfort, and abuse.

Some of you know that “civility” is one of my hard “ugh” triggers. This thread will explain why.
