No it’s the racism. The c-word thing is a basically meme.

No. They’ve said it’s narrowed to a governor. Whitmer has said she would decline (I think Pritzker too). So the options seem Josh Shapirio a big zionist, Andy Beshear a pretty generic moderate but decent record on trans rights, and Tim Walz a progressive (within dem standards). So she’ll probably pick the worst option.
Transmisogynoir
This Olympics trans panic is completely fucked up. What everyone said would happen when you police gender, there's no trans women to attack so they go after cis women who aren't feminine enough.
The weird thing is that if you use a broader lens on gender (Leslie Feinberg, Judith Butler etc style), where gender non-conforming, "masculine" and "butch" women are transgender, a large swath of female Olympians are kind of trans masc coded just by virtue of being extreme sportswomen.
It's like reactionaries are gazing on this secret truth of the universe that gender is a construct and these gender norms are being subverted by countless atheltes, and then doing a complete 180 to be like "oh they've got to be a man".

Both as in total number and just people from New Jersey.
You still hear the odd "Flat Screen TV" comments these days and it's like buddy the only CRTs on the market are antiques for hobbyists and they cost more than a basic TV.
Sometimes I remember how it came up that Brett Kavanaugh had spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on baseball tickets and it turned out to just be a rich white person thing instead of money laundering.
As in he bought season tickets in good seats for his family and several other families who then reimbursed him their balance. Because it's easier to have dozens of tickets all in one name so you can invite guests when some people can't make it, rather than tracking a bunch of different accounts.
4 Sybians is kind of excessive.
Yeah this was the chart (or similar) I mentioned in the other thread. Cis women generally better than Cis men in these sort of polls (I think it's reflected in the heterosexual women versus men too when shown).
Also as mentioned, broadly putting down transgender people doesn't reflect that sometimes people's intolerance is different depending on if it's a trans woman, a trans man or someone who is non-binary/gender non-conforming etc.
Specifically going to Hawaii and doing things that fund the largely Non-Hawaiian owned tourist industry which drives out locals and also does untold ecological damage. For example if you were friends with Hawaiians and they invite you to visit them/stay with them that’s probably fine.
