HRC Article:
WASHINGTON — Last night, President Biden signed the FY25 National Defense Authorization Act (NDAA) into law, which includes a provision inserted by Speaker Mike Johnson blocking healthcare for the transgender children of military servicemembers. This provision, the first anti-LGBTQ+ federal law enacted since the Defense of Marriage Act in 1996, will rip medically necessary care from the transgender children of thousands of military families – families who make incredible sacrifices in defense of the country each and every day. The last anti-LGBTQ+ federal law that explicitly targeted military servicemembers was Don’t Ask Don’t Tell, which went into effect in 1994.
Biden’s press release:
No service member should have to decide between their family’s health care access and their call to serve our Nation.
Spoken like someone who believes that 99.99% turnout and approval is how societies actually function, like the DPRK claims.
Have you ever spoken to a fucking Republican in your life?
Have you ever spoken to an average voter in your life?
‘Economy’ is a buzzword to them.
Thank you for reinforcing my point. Viewing politics as a series of isolated incidents performed for an audience of completely reasonable voters is utterly absurd, even in an ideal hypothetical situation, much less the current US.
It is in fact United States liberal democratic theory itself that argues the legitimacy of liberal states occurs through the process of election.
– Declaration of Independence
The DPRK is a bourgeoisie nation-state much like the United States.
This mind reading of what Republican or the Average Voter “really believes” provides no value. It was consistently shown both before, and after this election, the main concern of the people of the United States was that of the economy, and the worsening of their material conditions through inflation. It can be seen in the rhetoric of the Republican party, through terms such as “drain the swamp”, that the electorate of the United States is voting for a Trump as revenge against some kind of Evil Ruling Elite (The Bourgeoisie), while failing to recognize that Trump and the Republican party is a reactionary bourgeoisie party like the democrats.
No idea how this is relevant to what I said. The Democratic Party supported this anti-trans bill that will lead to the deaths of transgender people.
He’s having a conversation with you, yes.
That’s a definite ‘no’, then. Unsurprising given your views.
Republicans support genocide like you have done for a solid year now. Now heap on the “No, YOU support genocide by objecting to genocide” shit like you always do.
You support genocide by doing everything you can to support the election of the more genocidal option. Didn’t realize “More genocide = bad” was considered a hot take before this election year, but it seems that many online simply have no real sense of morality. But hey, you got your precious Bothsides GOP administration in, so it’s a success in the end for you, huh?
Thus.
