On Saturday, Oct. 24, Josh Turek, the Democratic candidate for U.S. Senate in Iowa, released a new ad targeting transgender people—perhaps the worst anti-transgender ad of the entire election cycle to come from a Democrat. The ad begins with Turek talking about his disability and the importance of not discriminating, before immediately turning to adopt discriminatory policies toward transgender people. One such policy is a sports ban, a position sadly becoming increasingly common among high-profile Democrats in competitive races, and one that alone would have made this yet another newsworthy anti-trans ad. But Turek then goes further, advocating for a new policy: a proposal to ban federally funded gender-affirming care in the United States, one that would impact a substantial number of transgender people and make their care difficult to impossible to receive.
There should be a federal funding ban on trans care.
There should be a federal funding ban on everything.
Over the next 50-100 years, our ultimate governmental goal should be the reduction, with the ultimate intent of abolishment, of all government systems.
You moron, we’re getting a taste of your hell scape now…
The lettuce is full of diarrhea, the beef is poisoned and the air is poison and children are dying of preventable diseases
Morons that don’t understand the purpose of government infuriate me
No.
So, like, do anarchists not abide any kind of government, even if a hypothetical government doesn’t claim authority over anarchists who don’t consent to it?
