They complain about political correctness, and they go and do shit like this.

This is a blatant first amendment violation. Another pro-gamer move from the free speech party.

There is no "good conservative" alive today.

I really can't comprehend the level of hate that these motherfuckers must possess to write or support such a bill. I mean, let's say you're an incredible asshole who doesn't think that trans people exist, like you think that you know who they are much better than they actually know themselves. Even with that as a baseline, isn't it still just the polite thing to treat them with basic respect?

If I found out that someone I just met preferred to use their middle name instead of their first name, I would 100% use that person's middle name when addressing them. It's just common courtesy. The same thing goes with a person who's transitioning - I will use their preferred name, because I'm not a completely deplorable piece of shit.

But this guy is way worse than someone who intentionally antagonizes people by using their disliked name when addressing them. This guy wants to actively punish anybody who has the rock bottom bare minimum of civility by destroying their lives and livelihoods.

I just can't grasp that level of hatred. How is it that this piece of shit shares enough genes with everybody else that he's recognized as human?

Ah yes, further diluting the term sex offender down to the point the label is meaningless.

Makes perfect sense to combine teachers who accept pronouns, with people caught publicly urinating on the same list with violent rapists and convicted pedophiles.. after all, it's all the same.

Jesus Christ fuck these GOP assholes so hard

HAIRCUTS! HAIRCUTS OF THE WRONG GENDER ARE PART OF THIS BILL!!

As a practical result this is more of an attack on education than an attack on LGBT, who would want to be a teacher under such tyrannical rules?

How is anyone supposed to know anyone else’s pronouns without asking them?

Are the teachers supposed to check the genitals of their students at the beginning of the year?

study to be a teacher in Missouri
teach full time for $30,000/year or something
become a sex offender, obviously can't teach anymore
can't actually find a job at all
forced to live in a designated trailer park for pedophiles
become a lifelong welfare recipient

nice one, conservatives

Don't like your teacher? Just flip your pronouns real quick and get them on the sex offender list. Problem solved.

Fuck this bullshit

This is how it starts, people.

I vote we make all politicians sex offenders to see how they like it.

I hate that these are usually rage bait titles, but this is legitimately terrifying

Okay. Everyone is a they/them. No binary gender for anyone. Hedge your bets and play it right down the middle.

Problem solved

Fuck Missouri Bill.

Missouri deliberately impoverishing themselves is par for the conservative course.

Two years ago I would have said no worries, there's no way a bill like this can pass. Now? Let's just say I don't take anything for granted.

Just give politicians prison time for wasteful laws like this. It's objectively a waste of taxpayer's dollars used to fuel hate crimes. Fuck them, they should get 100x the risk and accountability then the poor paycheck to paycheck teachers they keep overly focusing on.

For anyone curious and who wants the sauce, here is the link to the actual proposed changes. It is pretty transparent and accessible.
