Might as well define the Earth as flat and the Moon as green cheese while he's at it.
Do these fuckers have literally nothing else to do than wage wars against reality?

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Maybe a strategy to distract the masses while they and their ~~supporters~~ handlers steal the country blind.
I think you mis-spelled "Likely".
I know you misspelled "certainly."
They might try. They’ve already tried to legislate a definition of pi to equal exactly 3.
No, I refuse to believe that's ever hap-

It keeps us divided. It misdirects the anger of their base towards something other than how badly they are being fucked.
Never attribute that to malice which can be adequately explained by stupidity.... Unless it comes from the mouth of a Republican politician.

This is surely going to lower the price of eggs.
When women are factory farmed baby makers...oh you meant those eggs.

I kind of feel like all this spawned from some hot trans-girl turning down one of these shitstains and they've never let it go.
To be honest it's probably all the hot trans-girls turning them down, like there's a conspiracy or something, but hot trans-girls just don't like conservative assholes.

Setting aside the mind, it is a biological fact that approximately 1 in 1700 people are born with both sexual organs.
They're supposed to just, die?
What seems like a rhetorical question to you does not to a fascist.
According to Republicans, yes
Because irony has been bludgeoned to death by these bigots, I’d like to point out they’ve already been performing sex-reassignment surgery on intersex infants to make them conform to a binary sex, without the knowledge or consent of the baby and sometimes the parents. That’s been happening for ages in some places.
So all their tantrums over kids getting sex surgeries are technically true, except they have it completely backwards. It’s done to newborns to force traditional conformity, and they’re the ones doing it.
Intersex people occur at the same rate as redheads. This is the same thing as a proposal to kill all redheads for being redheads

Another fact, indigenous peoples all over the world had several genders, some dozens.
Not the dangerous radical gender ideology of trying to be happy
Is there any argument for trans people getting their rights removed?
We need media stepping up the messaging that the Right is infatuated with the genitals of people, especially children. Outside of maybe your Dr. (and/or partner), nobody should be talking about, or caring about your genitals to the degree the Right is in this pervy/pedo crusade of late.
We really need to start saying that these people want their own family members killed. It seems to be the only thing that can get some people to listen
They're not even replacing anything, they're just adding to it. Why do ya'll even care. Life is already so fucking miserable, even worse when you feel like you're not even in the right body. Fucking help people. Why is it that seemingly every politician just hates people? Why go out of your wait to be a representative just to make people miserable.

Someone should establish a Department of Senate Efficiency to look into whether that is an efficient use of the senates time.
Not a catchy enough name for fuckin Neanderthals to chuckle about
“As a physician who has delivered over 5,000 babies, I can confidently say that politicizing children’s gender to use them as pawns in their radical woke agenda is not only wrong, it is extremely dangerous" has got to be the most unaware sentence I've ever seen.
He claimed that the bill will stop what he called the Biden administration’s attempt to “replace biological sex with dangerous radical gender ideology.”
bill attempts to stop something that was never occuring
Holy shit, it worked and it hasn't even been signed yet.
I don't know about y'all but I don't remember Kamala or Biden directly spreading information in favor of lgbtq+ values. That's mostly been Hollywood. There might be some lobbying going on and some shoulder rubbing, but... I mean, I have yet to even hear Biden say the word trans in any real context unless I'm wrong, here. Their stance is less a stance and more of a "you're human, you're cool too".
But the scene does seem to be that the Republican party can just claim they stopped Kaijus and Holy wars and their fanbases will eat it up, so...
"Hey, my podcast said you didn't exist yesterday."
...sorry to disappoint you.

No-one is "replacing biological sex" silly.
Gender is different from sex. It's related, but separate.

@floofloof And this guy is an actual MD, as in medical doctor.
Aren't doctors supposed to take an oath to do no harm? This will cause so much harm.
~~Republican~~ lawmakers only swear an oath to whomever is paying them the most.
Edit: Democrats do it too, just not as obviously and not all of them. Until we get rid of corporate lobbying, we'll be firmly in an oligarchy.

Dr Oz is a real doctor as well. Unfortunately medical school doesn't prevent people from being delusional. Or giant assholes for that matter

Ya know, this "guy" goes by the name Roger and wears a suit and tie - why I bet he uses the "mens" bathroom... but how do we even know he's "male"? No seriously, how do we know he's not secretly just using the "mens" to try to assault/molest/peep on other alleged "men"?
I mean, if he's defining "male" then what follows, clearly, are inspections. He should not be exempt from them but, if he truly has nothing to hide, should be willing to be first in line.
wHaT ArE yOu HiDiNg "Roger"?
Imagine if we had a senate that was focused on real political and social issues instead of who has the "right" to go to the bathroom. Fucking nonsense.
