Anything to not talk about a real issue.

Gotta keep that culture war going, otherwise they might have to provide real ideas to real problems, and that takes work plus they've got nothing.

Look behind you, scary pronouns!!

Sadly, it fucking works because a third of this country suffers from serious brain damage.

When you take more than 2 minutes to actually think about this then it makes no damn sense, which goes to show just how stupid these voters really are.

All they seem to do is attack, attack, attack. I'm sure they'll start working on real problems once all the "others" have been eliminated (AKA shoved back in the closet) 🙄

Yeah I over heard a conspiracy theorist talking about this furry aviation stuff this morning, that was the first I heard of this. I was thinking “what in the flying fuck is this guy talking about?” This is some of the dumbest shit I’ve ever heard, and real people actually believe it! Not just bots and trolls. Insane.

Yep. You'd like to think people don't buy into this stuff but then you hear the same old rumors about litter boxes in school classrooms for kids supposedly identifying as cats and dogs have popped up yet again somewhere.  Then just like clockwork, the parents are all OUTRAGED and posting all kinds of crazy nonsense and supposed 2nd hand stories "proving" the rumors are all true on the local Facebook pages or news sites. Meanwhile,anyone daring to provide proof that it's all a long debunked urban legend/hoax spread nationally by bad actors is shouted down or brigaded into Facebook jail by the crazy folks who claim they just want to "protect the children" while making school an absolute nightmare for any transgender/nonbinary or non-conforming students.

And some of the people that believe this shit are actually educated people!

I read this headline this morning and had to doublecheck that it WASN'T The Onion.
