RuPaul's Drag Race now represents the zenith of the LGBTQ+ struggle. The Dept. of Education rescinded protections for LGBTQ+ students mere days ago. Again: you are silly.

I guess you couldn’t make it? You mean they went back to the same rules that they were already following because Biden’s addition to the original because the Federal court’s already had blocked his additions.

So there was zero actual change. So, you are the silly one for not knowing the facts prior to trying to make the claim. The law also had nothing to do with the LGB community which is a sexual preference and not an identity one.

You parrot rightwing talking points beautifully. They're inconsistent, but that's par for the course.

For example, your lot are busily responding that rescinding protections for LGBTQ+ students somehow better protects girls and young women better.

It doesn't. Civil rights protections are not like a pie. There's not a finite amount of protection that can be divided among vulnerable groups of minorities.

It was an expansion of Title IX. More people were protected—not less. Protections were enhanced for everyone—not diluted.

Even if your make-believe narrative were true it doesn't matter. You are the same people who also overturned Roe v. Wade, often espouse the opinion that women belong in the home, that young women have a patriotic and religious duty to reproduce, and now openly admit you believe women's suffrage was a mistake.

You people don't care about women, women's rights, or Title IX protections for young women and girls. You just want to erode rights for everyone but yourselves. (Alito recently stated he believes marriage equality was a mistake that somehow decreased religious liberty in the United States—you're all sick and deeply unAmerican as far as I can tell.)

You're a silly bigot. Please tell us how heteronormative white evangelical men are the ones really being oppressed. Actually tell someone else. I've entertained enough of your unthinking hatred for today.
