You can post a meme about your opinion, but you cannot then flag comments that disagree with your opinion. There is a difference between opinion and fact.

It's not about who follows the rules, it's about why the rules are there. The rules are there for homophobic reasons. The fact you want to pretend that's fine because "well not everyone thinks that!" Is honestly kinda alarming.

F**k texas.

Yeah. Because it's not f**king fine. You're trying to tell people "nooooo but not everyone there thinks it haha" and that's stupid.

This law passing is a threat to trans lives everywhere. A wise one once said "injustice anywhere is a threat to justice anywhere"

Trying to tell people "it's not as bad as that place" or "not everyone thinks that so you shouldn't care!" Is apart of the problem. Ignorance is the problem and you saying these things is powering ignorance.

And there's a difference between patience and acquiescence.

Acquiescence is basically just giving up,
Patience is just not giving a shit to begin with.

I turn it around like that considering your defense is apparently "not giving a shit"

I'm done arguing about this. By saying these things you're basically normalizing the idea of these laws, that's sick.

People following rules isn't people writing rules. The fact that a child can be taken away from their parent for being themself is so f**king stupid and you're out here saying that "well not all people follow the rules haha"

Yeah f**k that, f**k texas and f**k that view on reality. The reality that is the lives of trans texan children more than likely being taken from their homes.

Ok, I'm talking about the lives of trans children in Texas. Like that sucks man but that's not the conversation at hand.

The conversation at hand is that you're trying to tell people to just chill out with a serious issue that's gonna ruin the lives of trans children in a big area, which is quite obviously wrong.

Wow, People really CAN'T chill in here.
[deleted]
0 ups, 3y
Yeah I should just chill out about children being taken away from their parents for wanting to present differently, and for parents having their children taken away for being supportive of that.

Haha, so chill and cool. Totally not like this could devolve into those laws being spread to even more places, and other places following in the footsteps of a place that was horrible to begin with. No no lemme just chill out. Gotta love murica huh?

Where I come from, You're lucky that's ALL that happens to you.

Where I come from we try to give a shit about issues in this world instead of just thinking we've been through more so we don't need to care.

Where I come from we make at least half a go***amn effort to not be ignorant and to care about other issues that may not fully concern ourselves.

Where I come from we don't welcome people who like to put off huge issues and then argue when people know it's important to care.

Yeah how do we know it won't evolve to be that way? Keep it at least where they can live by not saying that you just don't give a shit.
0 ups, 3y
You seem to give a shit what people are saying about Texas's laws to me. But if I've misunderstood and what you're saying is that people should do more than talk and engage in civil disobedience of those laws, then I apologize and agree with you.

Are those places in the United States? And how much worse are they? And why shouldn't people hate unjust laws?

Also, To answer your question, Because it's kinda pointless, Considering it exists EVERYWHERE

I disagree. Injustice everywhere should be opposed everywhere.

Seems rather pointless, If it's not gonna change anything, It's meaningless to try
There still exists trans people in those states (Including Texas) even with it's laws

You're assuming it won't change anything. It seems pointless to you. Oppression has been opposed and overcome before.

Women can vote. Black people aren't enslaved. No way am I saying things are just now, but fighting back did do something.

That's what I'm thinking. About your loud complaining about what people are saying about Texas's shitty laws.

But kudos to those who have the willpower and fearlessness to break those unjust laws.

Sure, Fighting back CAN make a difference, But only when there was enough willpower and fearlessness, Now, It's more like loud complaining.

Well, that's your opinion.
