    The world is dumping the dollar, Israel is dragging us into the worst war we’ve ever conceived of fighting, we got cascading epidemics and previously eradicated diseases like fuckin Polio are back, climate change is unfolding faster than even some of the most alarmist experts have predicted…where the fuck are we finding the funds or the resources to harass doctors in another country about trans people? I think we found the “waste, fraud, and abuse” that these misanthropes are always on about. They’re like the gremlins from the movie…uh…from the movie “Gremlins”.

      Not sure what you think a trans person is, and perhaps you’re joking, but your comment is not very nice to trans people, in several ways. Being transgender is not a matter of dressing up, and it’s really unhelpful to suggest that being trans is on a continuum with rape and pedophilia.

        I’d hoped the sarcasm and skewering of the right with their own bigotry would be apparent but perhaps not.

          bro it’s not that we’re too stupid to get it, it’s that the “joke” is literally just transphobia and that’s not okay.

      Not really funny. “A trans” is not a way to call a trans person. Do better.
