There's some mild transphobia here, so be wary. It's very tame by Ovarit standards though. The whole thread is fucking hilarious. Some highlights:

Well (I know this is rambling)...what if that's us? What if we ARE living in the final days of Rome? What if humans refuse to recognize man, woman, sex, facts... What if we are among the last sane people left?

Because of course the thing that's going to kill our civilization is trans people existing.

I can't speak for other countries but I think the political state in the US is closer to communism than liberalism. Liberals used to defend free speech and political opposition. We're now living in a world where political opposition is defamed if not squashed outright. Freedom of speech is an illusion at this point. People are being fired for wrongthink. People are being censored. Huge institutions are telling lies and falsehoods and demanding the public play along. Books are being banned. Women are being dehumanized. History is being rewritten. Sorry but I'm a fatalist and this shit is a slippery slope that you can't come back from. If we continue to slide we'll end up in a communist state.

Hahahahahahaha. Ha. I just can't with this, it's so wrong on so many levels.

China will start a war while the West is crying about pronouns and then we'll have something more important to care about.

Because we gotta have "China bad" in here somewhere! Just classic.

    I eagerly await them accusing a blocky looking cis woman of being trans and getting a shoe thrown at them.

      That was actually an issue in Arizona after they banned trans athletes from competing in sports. Bunch of teenaged cis women (who had muscles from, you know, being athletic) got harassed by Sports Parents for not sufficiently conforming to their gender expectations.

        Probably lower velocity than the Bush shoe toss, but at closer range so it balances out.
