The "litter box" arguments drive me insane, because they actually do have a similar product in their emergency kits.. for use either as emergency bathrooms during a lockdown, or to absorb other bodily fluids. If only they could be outraged at the real reason there's cat litter in classrooms, but their gun fetish is too important.

As long as the "right people" say it, nothing is off-limits. It's wild. If a leftist says "hey, did you see Elon musk throw up the Nazi salute? Wtf was that?" then they will do backflips to rationalize it and disbelieve their own eyes. But when Trump says "they're eating the pets and kidnapping your children to forcibly change their genders", they don't even bat an eye because the "right people" are saying it.
And for these chuds, the qualifications of "right people" are really basic: anyone in a position of authority over them. The president, the politicians of the current administration, the influencers who act as though they have special knowledge and insight into the inner workings of the government, priests and religious leaders, police, and "news" anchors. But definitely not politicians that aren't currently in power, and absolutely not their own eyes and ears. Those can't be trusted...

I was told to drink milk. Since it's a 'muscle relaxer.'
I stuffed cotton balls in a bottle of tylenol so it didn't make noise and carried that in my purse. To my knowledge the school nurse's job was to use her magic spray to help students get stains out of their clothes, because that was the main thing people saw her for.

No one has outright talked about schools forcing trans surgery on kids, but last time I was in Missouri a bumpkin chatting with me said "it's a different world up there" and I didn't have the resolve to ask him exactly what he meant. My father in law is also from Minnesota, now living in KC. He is absolutely terrified to go to Minneapolis to catch a Twins game. It is quite sad, Minnesota is a beautiful state with amazing people and this administration is constantly harming it for political gain.

You are describing fear.
Goebels wrote about engaging irrational fears in propaganda. Fox does it 24/7/365; they make stuff up if they have to. We know from research that the brains of right wing and religious types are unusually strong at fearing things. We all need a bit of fear to stay safe, but their fear centers are over developed.
So these “bumpkins” are bumpkins because they are afraid all the time. Go to college? I’m afraid I’ll feel stupid. Visit a big city? What, and get mugged? It explains a lot.
Trump knows Goebels’s rules. The one book he has in his nightstand is about Hitler’s speeches. He can relate too; Mr Bone Spurs is a massive coward. Those are his people.
So this clip is par. He’s not trying to make sense, he’s trying to engage their deepest fears. Am I secretly gay? Am I really stupid? Are those people not like me going to kill me?
If we do what is natural - which is to scream BULL SHIT, and go on about how stupid and worthless his followers are - then we’re doing exactly what he needs us to do. We’re validating the fears of his followers.
MAGA social circles will go on about “the elites” not taking the threat of schools turning boys into girls for years. They may or may not believe it is happening, but they can see our contempt.
I don’t have an answer for this, but I can see we are being played. I know those folks are too far gone to reach, but their kids are still in adventure mode. Perhaps we can show them what’s happening with their parents.

u/KittyGrewAMoustache 7h ago
But whether you say they’re stupid or pretend they’re normal, they’ll do the same shit. The only way we could ever possibly hope to get them not angry and violent is to completely capitulate.
Because the truth is, they are just unable to tolerate the world and all its complexity. So unless you pander to their insecurities and act like the world is something it’s not, which will be destructive for everyone, they’ll continue as they are. There’s nothing you can do - these people have always been there, upset that they don’t have the cognitive capacity to understand so many things and enraged by the people who do, because ultimately they feel entitled to superiority. And the internet has allowed them to come together to shore up each others egos, imagining it’s not that they’re stupid or a coward, it’s that they’re being tricked by evil ‘scientists’ and ‘liberals’ who just want to destroy them because they’re so superior and therefore it’s right to be afraid and angry.
There’s nothing anyone can do to change them. Yes telling them they’re stupid will enrage them, but so will all sorts of facts that involve understanding complex concepts or things that are not intuitive and require reasoning ability. You can’t tell them climate change is real, or that vaccines don’t cause autism, or that small government just means more power in fewer hands and more corporate power, or that tariffs are ultimately paid by the consumer - you can’t even tell them Jesus said to be kind to each other because it’s not what they want to hear.
The onus isn’t on everyone else to contort themselves and reality to protect them from facing their inadequacies. The onus is on them to feel worthwhile despite not being smart and to let go of the need to exert power or project superiority and to just be decent people.

When i have family, or random folks say, "It's a different world" here (i live in Minneapolis, in case my name wasn't enough of a clue!)
I tend to lean in & say, "YEP!!! We have folks from all over the world, and an incredible food & restaurant scene, because of it!
I can get authentic Greek, Mexican, Mediterranean, Hmong, Pizza that's New York, Detroit, Chicago, Italian, or Midwestern pub-style, German, Polish, Ukranian Vietnamese, Chinese, Thai, Hawaiian, Japanese, French, so many kinds of Indian, other Asian, Carribbean, Middle-Eastern, Central & South American, and African foods.
And i can also get ingredients from all over the world!
If you like to cook, bake, or try new foods from around the world? Minneapolis-St. Paul and the surrounding area is incredible, because you don't have to be on a coast, or in Chicago to get all of that!"
And the other thing that people "not from here," don't get?
Is that--while there are "growing pains" when each new generation of immigrants comes in--
There were the freakouts back in the 1980's about "Hmong Gangs!" and the 90's & early 00's about "Hispanic Gangs!" juuuuust like there are nowadays about "Somali Gangs!"(🙄🙄🙄), for pete's sake!
The groups of people who come in, settle, and STAY here?
They DO largely hold the SAME VALUES!!!
Just like the Dakota & the Ojibwe who were here first--there is a culture of accepting new folks, and making sure they're fed, clothed, and safe.
We feed our neighbors, and we come from communal cultures, where folks pitched together and take care of each other, and no one gets left behind.
The Germanic, Irish, & Nordic folks who settled in the 1800's-early 1900's looked out for & took care of each other. Same with the jewish folks fleeing pogroms in Eastern Europe. The folks who moved North from Southern States, during The Great Migration.
Those Germans & Nordic folks didn't "fully integrate" and start speaking English at home, until after WW2 started!!!
And after WW2, not only did plenty of American GI's bring home Brides from Europe & Asia, plenty of German POW's stayed here, and married American women.
Then, during & after the Korean & Vietnam wars, on through the 90's, til now Minnesotans adopted kids (so many Korean kids in the 60's-80's!), and we brought refugees from the Phillipines, Vietnam, Laos, Cambodia, and the surrounding region here--especially the Hmong families whose men fought with & for the US.
And they brought their foods, and that "taking care of one another" culture.
Then, in the 1980's, we started getting lots of immigrants from Mexico, Central, & South America, and they did the same--sharing food, traditions, and that sense of care & community.
And in the 90's through now, we see the influx of folks from East Africa--Ethiopia, Somslia, Eritrea, etc, and folks from West Africa--Liberia, Côte d'Ivoire (Ivory Coast), Ghana, Guinea, Nigeria, etc., who brough their foods, and community-based values.
So many folks from other places--and honestly, even folks from the very white & rural parts of our state, see the struggles those (often second-generation) kids have, "finding their place" here, and assume "They all hate us and they're alllll violent!"
And that's NOT what goes on.
Most of our new immigrants?
They're JUST LIKE the Germans, Irish, Jewish, & Nordic Folks, who settled here 100-150 years ago!
Community-minded, hardworking, and here to create a better life for their families.
And you start to SEE that, once you get to know them!
Minnesota is a state of mind, based around getting to know folks, helping each other survive some pretty harsh elements, getting through the seasons together, and soooooo much good food shared back & forth!
Once we sit down & get to know each other*?
We start realizing that we might've been born in very different places around the world!
But we were RAISED THE SAME WAY!!! With the same values!!! Doesn't matter if we grew up in rural MN, or a refugee camp in Ethiopia, Laos, or fled the breakup of the USSR, or a South American Dictatorship!
We care about our neighbors, and the folks around us, we make sure they have their necessities covered, that their kids are getting a good education, and we understand--like Paul Wellstone used to say,
"We all do better, when we ALL do better!" "Trickle Down" politics is BS. Building the community up, by making sure everyone has enough--that makes us so much stronger!

They just hear the Fox News reports that 6 (of the 9 million) people were murdered over the weekend, but never bat an eye at the 4 (of 680k) people killed in Memphis that same weekend.
What even more crazy is how concentrated most of Chicago’s crime is in certain neighborhoods I’ve never even been through and never will, and certainly no tourist ever would. It will be like random two-block stretches between the city and the suburbs, where it’s just nonstop gang on gang violence and turf wars.

Drumpf tells lies, every day, about countless things. He lies to create a smokescreen. He pretends he's intelligent. He fakes information about his reasons for going to war.
He falsifies information about his finances, his business acumen, the aptitude of the people employed in his Cabinet.
He lies about the behaviour of groups of people he wants to "other". He creates stress & divides communities. He's cruel & mocks minorities. He does so because he's a bully. He still needs to bully other people, despite the power he has as POTUS.
Trans people are a really small minority. It's not easy being Trans. There's a lot of misinformation out there about the motivation of Trans people, what their goals are & what they do.
So much of that information comes from Drumpf. He picks on marginalized groups because it's difficult for those groups to be heard & taken seriously.
This is the man who promised a wall, which wasn't needed & was never completed. This is a man who lied about some immigrants (residing legally in the US) eating their neighbours pets.
It's more lies. Because he's almost incapable of telling the truth. He's made the USA a place of intolerance & suspicion & cruelty. Stop believing his BS.

I think the bigger and realistic concern for American parents is whether their child will even come home from school alive. If Trump truly cared about the well-being of schoolkids (or any American), he would tighten gun laws.

BwhahahHAHAHAHAHAHA! Like anyone could get insurance to cover a surgery like that because…the school said so? This is wild. He doesn’t even know how the regular world works.

OP, is this the first time you've heard him say this?
It's not the first time Trump said this, it's been a part of his rotating stump speeches for years - he says unbelievable, incredibly stupid, absolutely outrageous things like this so his base will continue to be riled up and not focus on how badly they are being fleeced.
Have you listened to some the MAGAt Morons regurgitate this back in public?
A lot of videos are around of them actually parroting this crap, believing it is occurring...

Social media - that is not a factual source, for sure.
No, he's said it before and continues to say it, typical Republican playbook because they know their voters and get results by continuing to reinforce this over and over.
Get the Hillbilly Rubes to focus on stupid false things like this, rather than the major strategic issues like the Iranian War.
These people cannot understand the bigger issues, so they're fed constant crap like this - racist, misogynist, anti-Queer, et al - all kinds of outrageous, and frankly dangerous tropes that are easier for the base to digest and fear.
Like I said, just incredibly and willfully ignorant.

Yes, it is concerning he has the launch codes and talks about a pre-emptive strike on Iran all the time. He has no clue what that would do to the Middle East, for starters - he lied us into a war, thinks our nuclear arsenal is a toy.
His Parents both had Alzheimer's, if I'm not mistaken, he has Dementia of some kind, if not Alzheimer's, exhibits Sundowners, which is typical, where he gets extremely agitated as the sun goes down, he is incontinent for sure, losing his ability to walk, confused all the time, garbled speech, morbidly obese and all that entails, etc. etc.
He's an extremely sick man.

In the background you have one sign that says "Social Security", and I assume it says something like " Defend Social Security " or "Save Social Security". He's talking about a fever dream he had after snorting some coke, and there's a lady in the background who is beaming.
Trump I can get to an extent, it is his supporters are just odd. They see the same thing, they sit through hours of this stuff, and then they deny what they just saw. I just don't get it, him being mentally off is one thing, but his supporters being so delusional and insane, not merely hateful, disturbs me more than anything Trump says outside of his genocidal threats.
There's a new article about interviews with Gen Z Trump voters and they're acting all disappointed when I'm just wondering why they felt any confidence in him at all.

Schools aren’t even allowed to give out painkillers for a headache, and these people think they’re somehow performing major surgery. And btw, no doctor in this country will do genital surgery on a minor unless it’s medically necessary. Bottom surgery is very intense and it takes weeks to recover from it. It’s not outpatient surgery.
