They are killing America's democracy slowly and surely.

I see where they went wrong. Biological differences are no longer immutable. 💁♀️

It's pretty simple, if money is being spent on something that isn't a wealthy person, that money is being spent poorly and will be redirected towards a wealthy person.

Just fascists being fascists. He’s so intimidating. Let’s make sure we do what he says from now on guys.

TJ Sci Tech's "Get Involved" page, which includes donation and volunteer opportunities for those who want to counteract the funding cut:

TJ is an incredible program (all the VA magnet schools are tbh), and it deserves the monetary support it has previously received.

It is all coming so fast,it's hard to keep track of the many ways the US is gone, as we used to know it. Destroying freedom by a thousand paper cuts and atomic bombs every fricking day

ssshhh don't give away the plan... rapid fire petty easy to understand evil, so there is no time to talk about the complicated big evil (and bribes, and Epstein, and...) like ending food aid, killing thousand to millions of humans. And crashing a large part of the farming economics of Republican core voters...

Things I'm particularly worried about right now in no particular order: FBI purge, laws to take passports away from dissidents, declaring antifa a terrorist organisation.

It's the famous "death of a thousand cuts". Damage so tiny you ignore it, piled up beyond the point of survivability.

“well-established” means nothing. Any document that uses it is suspect.

Damn they using the same mechanism but for an opposite effect

Yeah the law in the USA has always been a game played by smartasses. Sometimes you get actual principled people into positions of influence and they make a difference, then they die or get voted out, and the law goes back to being a game played by smartasses.

I mean, this isn't crazy. It's in the law. If you don't comply with Title 9, you get your federal funding pulled. If they want the money, all they have to do is comply with Title 9, they're doing it to themselves, really.

it's still wild to me how the same people are ok with unisex toilets at home but when it's a McDonalds or school it's "noooooo, they must be separated!!" just install stalls with better locks and panels from floor to ceiling.

Wait, you have unisex toilets at home? All my toilets are bisexual.
DeakVanNyke
sorry for your toilet, but happy for you))

They are into watersports and other things too.
