Last night I was thinking about the Sarah McBride situation and it got me thinking.

"I wonder if the first black person in congress was told he had to use the Colored Room?"

She just needs to pee!

Republicans will use anything to generate outrage and distract from the constant war they wage on the working class

The biggest winners of this US elections are the corporations

[–] [email protected] 27 points 1 day ago* (last edited 1 day ago) (1 children)

we'll see. Media companies, gas companies and private prisons for sure win here, other corporations may suffer if they enact most of these policies:

Invading cities with the US military will destroy real estate markets. My guess is this is a bluff.

Rounding up immigrants (lets not pretend they'll be checking documents) will destroy agricultural corps and one of the US' largest exports

Tariffs will drastically damage consumer spending and costs for electronics (which will indirectly hike data center costs).

Tax cuts will radically increase inflation again.

I know it's not a very hip position right now but I think the incoming administration will turn out to be mostly hype. They'll get bogged down trying to get the blue states to comply with some insane piece of legislation on something with no federal jurisdiction, and blame their failure to do anything on that.

I mean they have the presidency, the house, the Senate, and the supreme court, gonna be difficult to lay the blame.

I'm sorry, but that sounds like copium to me. Why would this fascist authoritarian regime be less successful than all of the other big fascist authoritarian regimes in history? They don't care about the law.

Regardless of party! Because we’re such a great country full of decadence that we have not one but two pro capitalist pro imperialism pro forever war parties!

I'd love for a bearded trans man to walk in there, look her dead in the eye and tell her not to worry, he has a vagina.

This is messed up. Do they not want trans people to use any bathrooms?

No, no they do not.

Correct, the goal is to eliminate trans people from public life.

Until we figure out humanoid robots all people are biological and trans women are women, so....

[–] [email protected] 69 points 1 day ago (5 children)

These people are obsessed with people's genitals. Just go to the fucking bathroom. Must you go out of your way to make even taking a shit in public more uncomfortable than it needs to be?

Shut the fuck up and do your fucking job.

Insist on big dick and small dick bathrooms for guys. Really lean into it.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 14 hours ago (1 children)

What if they’re a grower not a shower? How do we sort this out we talking flaccid or erect? Can half these congress critters even get an erection without chemical help?

I'm still trying to figure out what these people [Republicans] are doing in the bathroom. I probably don't want to know. All can say is, when I'm trying to pee in a public restroom, I don't really give a shit who's in the stall next to me. I don't care what their gender is. I don't care what their birth gender was. I'm just trying to do my business and get on with my day.

Many public restrooms in Iceland are unisex. These apes wouldn't last one road trip.

If there are stalls with doors in the bathroom, then mind your own damn business if someone is in there. If there aren't, then it's an issue with the facility that should be fixed so anyone using them has privacy. Why are Republicans so concerned about what people do on the toilet or in the bedroom?

"Women may get attacked by trans people" says the party who by far has the larger list of offenders. Clean your own house.

You know what, aren't American stalls notorious for giant gaps in them? Maybe if they fixed that and had better stalls things like this may smooth over better. Unless that stereotype of American bathrooms is outdated or not actually the norm

[–] [email protected] 8 points 17 hours ago

Yes they are and I hate it.

Worse, my high school had no doors on the bathroom stalls at all (at least in the boys' room). I'm guessing it was some sort of "we don't want to catch you masturbating" sort of thing but I would almost always just hold any shitting I had to do in unless I was in drama class because the auditorium had bathrooms with doors.

Just unisex the thing. They get a lesson in tolerance and everyone gets equal treatment.

[–] [email protected] 55 points 1 day ago

The never ending tradition of conservatives always looking for someone to hate.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 1 day ago

I say we push them harder, hard enough that they mandate single person unisex bathrooms, with the fancy auto room washing function they have in Japan. Then I can finally crap in peace.
