I’m not doing this because I think Trump will read a Lemmy comment and decide to turn himself in. I’m doing it because I’m pissed off and I want to associate every possible bit of news about MAGA politics with this. They shouldn’t be allowed to get away with distracting people, and we should be allowed to express that we’re not being fooled, even if it’s ultimately just a gesture.

So a law that wasn’t passed by the elected representatives of a country’s population has no validity in that country. This had to be decided by a Supreme Court.

We truly live in the stupidest timeline.

I think that the point is “Rowling claims to want to protect cis women but even cis women would be harmed if she got her way, so nobody actually benefits”. Maybe it’s too charitable an interpretation but then again maybe not.

I squarely disagree. People who dedicate as much time and energy to making life worse for others as her are clearly living with intense negative emotions that they don’t know how to deal with in a healthy manner. Happy people don’t campaign against rights for others. Rowling is clearly a miserable and pathetic person. In the game of life, she’s losing to the average favela musician who has no money but loves their community.
