Maybe they found real numbers but I wouldn't be surprised if a rise is because a policy like this garnered attention, which put Karens on edge, which made them report anyone they suspected of being trans in the bathrooms
I had a look at the study and it was just a bunch of loser scientists literally googling articles with 'Target' and 'sexual' and finding out that there were 3 articles about peeping toms in 2016 and 6 in 2017 after the policy change, accounting for the 190% increase.
lmao of course it's a headline study like why would Target maintain, let alone publish statistics like that, they're not the fucking FBI. TERFs think everyone else has pudding in their skulls.
Why? We don't need to lie, we're right. They need to lie because they're factually (among other ways) wrong and now I'm noticing your account name and wondering if I'm playing into a bit.
The serious part: I do think the left (although I reluctantly support this) might benefit from being sensationalist.
The bit part: We don't need to lie, I agree. We just need to sugar coat the truth in a way so normies might accept it. The reason the right is so successful is that people would rather be kissed with a lie than slapped with the truth. Why not kiss people with the truth?
EDIT: I just deleted my old comment since it's kinda dumb when I actually put thought into it.
Fuck it, I'm going full Enlightenment idealist: Our goals are fundamentally different. We want to actually create a better world, and that has to be based on TRUTH and TRUST. Fascists have to lie, because their actual program is miserable for everyone except a select few. We have to tell the truth because otherwise why not join the Democrats, tell flattering lies, and win? If you start disingenuously manipulating people, a leftist movement is impossible. By the people, for the people.

lmao, random chud with an inkjet printer, I'm sure you had access to statistics about crimes committed in Target bathrooms.

I'm half serious, half just doing a bit.

I mean, you don't have to disingenuously manipulate people, but it's good to frame your ideas in terms they understand and are receptive to.
yeah there's a middle ground between manipulation and being incredibly blunt
Based and bloompilled.
Definitely agree, it's largely about the framing when you're trying to convince people of something.
