#i understand the annoyance with dunking on fascism in place of actually resisting but uh this is a legal document and inaccuracies matter

[toughtink]

i don’t think this is just about dunking on how dumb this administration is; it’s pointing out an important flaw in how they operate that will be exploitable in different ways depending on the issue. yes, fascists gonna fascist without caring much about the details, but in matters of legality the specific wording matters a lot and is a great way to jam up the works. i’m not a lawyer and cannot comment how how much this particular idiot definition of gender/sex will affect court proceedings, but it certainly seems representative of their general incompetence in a big way. they may push things through anyway if they have enough fascists in the system already, but they might not. a lot of folks, even trump voters, are dedicated to doing their jobs correctly and by the letter of the law.

everyone trying to own trump about the "he doesn't know sex isn't determined at conception" thing really fundamentally does not understand what the point of that was, and learned basically nothing from his first term. he is not invested in scienve, biology, or any rational discussion where his provably false beliefs would be subject to scrutiny. he is signaling to everyone in the country that it does not matter what you say, he will never care and he will take every action to enforce these views and embolden his followers with the same rhetoric. you cannot logically talk to a person like this when they are reasoning with emotion, not logic. you cannot dunk the transphobia away. someone post the vonnegut quote.
