So... This means that if I'm without a place to rest my head for the night, I have to show my genitals at the door? And are there protections in place to keep me from being raped when I do so? Let's face it, this is part of the campaign not merely to stop trans people from receiving services, it's part of an extermination campaign. Genocide. Holocaust. How many people are going to die because they're not willing to submit to what amounts to sexual molestation in exchange for survival resources?

I think Republifascists really just get off on thinking about everyone else's junk.

This is reminiscent of when the Federal Government under Woodrow Wilson spread segregation nationwide by forcing it through Federal facilities, bypassing state laws. It's the new Jim Crow.

That’s just a collection point per Executive Order 14321: Ending Crime & Disorder on America’s Streets. which shifts federal policy toward mandatory treatment, forced institutionalization, and encampment removal. The order prioritizes law enforcement over "Housing First" strategies, directing federal funding to jurisdictions that clear encampments, enforce anti-camping ordinances, and transition unhoused individuals into treatment facilities.

This might be a wild take, but I don't think that any place other than a hospital should have genital inspections in the first place. If you're trying to look inside my pants and you're not a doctor making sure my health is in good condition, then I am not showing you anything. Period.

I don't get it. Let's say I ask to stay at a homeless shelter, and they want to inspect my genitals. What will that tell them about my "biological sex" as they've defined it? Are they going to inspect me for ovaries or something? Would they simply want to check my surgeon's skill and artistry? Did they really think this through?

Oh yeah... I forgot... Cruelty is the point.

Just more cruelty targeting our community by Trump's regime.

Why. Why are these perverts obsessed with genitalia. It’s becoming obscene. They call transgender people abominations and perverts yet THEY are the ones obsessed with genitalia.

We need a legitimate assassination. No more fake bulllshit.

That won't solve the problem. J. D. Vance is not only no better but he is a more capable person because he is not mentally ill - or at least not as much as Trump.

• Take away trans people’s healthcare coverage so they have to spend exorbitant amounts of money to get care, possibly breaking the law while doing so

• Take away their driver’s licenses so they can’t drive

• Take away discrimination protections so now even if they have another way to get to work they’re fired

• Make it a felony to use the bathroom and force them to be in the prison of their ASAB, allowing v-coding and whatnot

• Even if the broke, unemployed, unable to drive trans person isn’t jailed, make sure they can’t go to a homeless shelter

I fucking hate it here
