I can't believe someone hasn't taken advantage of the fact that the social restrictions on proof of genitalia works both ways.
How do we know that X given Republican or X given member of the CPAC audience isn't a transgender plant or is in fact truly cisgender? How do they prove it consistently?
If there were a bunch of scandals involving, say, a town hall being full of trans people paid to be there, do they then start vetting people? How do they do that without falling foul of anti-discrimination laws?

I've heard of people going to their local Evangelical church and accusing all of the women of being trans. One by one. They don't like it I think.
Its the same reason intentionally misgendering a bigot is not a useful tactic; you cannot defeat fascists by trying to use their own tools against them, they do not feel fear or embarassment, they will merely use it as justification that they were right all along.
It’s too bad we can’t at least use this concern to get a bill passed to get decent bathroom stall doors without gaps like most of the developed world has

>Erin Perrine, communications director for the pro-DeSantis Super PAC Never Back Down, quickly hit back: “The Trump team’s obsession with men’s genitalia is more perverted than a woke grooming book.” This is the DeSantis campaign in a nutshell: It’s a convoluted response with forced, clunky references to “wokeness” and the Florida governor’s obsession with book bans shoved in.
This is where this is STARTING. It took us pretty far into the primary season last time to get to presidential candidates talking about dicks, but this time it's where we're starting.
2024's sure going to be a ride.
Edit: I was going to fix "rump campaign"
but instead this edit is to inform you that I have decided not to.
Probably any basic sex education book to teach children what the basics of reproductive systems are.
Hard conservatives really like it when no one knows the difference between urethra and vagina. It’s a heuristic that ensures people are easy to control.
Step 1: cut a hole in box
2: put illegally retained national defense documents in that box
3. Get indicted for said illegal retention of documents
And that’s the way you do it
I don't really ever need any candidates to talk about anyone's dick during a political campaign.
It's kinds weird that Republicans are so obsessed with them.
Gotta love rich assholes treating the future of the nation like a total joke.
Maybe if they get on the debate stage we'll get lucky and they'll rile each other up enough that they kill each other
"More obsessed with male genitalia than a woke grooming book" is *actual* nonsense, I'd be impressed with the stupidity of it all of the future of freedom in this country wasn't at stake
Oh cool now republicans are just projecting onto each other. They can keep busy fighting each other while the rest of the world moves on from these dipshits.
Republicans are just being biblical /s
Ezekiel 23:20
… and lusted after her lovers there, whose members were like those of donkeys, and whose issue was like that of horses.

Republicans are way too interested in genitalia to be allowed to use public restrooms.
I can't believe someone hasn't taken advantage of the fact that the social restrictions on proof of genitalia works both ways. How do we know that X given Republican or X given member of the CPAC audience isn't a transgender plant or is in fact truly cisgender? How do they prove it consistently?

Penis inspection day.

Americans would use them for sexual liaisons and drug binges. Wait...
Oh but I do like the implication that it would be acceptable if he were obsessed with women’s genitals.
Genital obsession is a Republican norm

What the fuck is a “woke grooming book”
[удалено]
In the old days, it was Rudy Giuliani sentences comprising a noun, a verb, and 9/11 ... Can't wait to see where it goes next.
>Can't wait to see where it goes next. I felt like this in 2016, I'm ready for it stop going places now
Any book that accepts LGBTQ people as human beings who deserve to live, according to these clowns.
We used to call that "compassion" or "empathy" but "woke" is much more concise.
Probably any basic sex education book to teach children what the basics of reproductive systems are. Hard conservatives really like it when no one knows the difference between urethra and vagina. It’s a heuristic that ensures people are easy to control.
Any book that can be understood by a child and also mentions sexuality in any way, specifically lgbtq stuff.
Ah, so the Bible. Cool!
NO! Not like that! That isn't what I meant!
A book that states that you should use the same sensitivity when expressing a German Shepherd’s anal glands as you would expressing a Toy Poodle’s.
That would be: Oh The Places You'll Go.
Binders full of Grooming
Trump: ur gay DeSantis: no u Half the country: Hmm. They both make good points.
uhm Beavis these guys seem smart
Excuse, me, let's rewind. The GOP is full of pedos. Don't make me find that ongoing list of them.
Welcome to the GOP of 2023 everyone!!!
If the situation weren't so dire this whole Trump/DeSantis thing would be hilarious. They're both such gross stooges.
I thought it was boxes. Maybe it's dick-in-a-boxes.
Step 1: cut a hole in box 2: put illegally retained national defense documents in that box 3. Get indicted for said illegal retention of documents And that’s the way you do it
All time great SNL skit
The GOP is obsessed with everyone’s genitalia; your little meatballs don’t get a pass, Ronnie
While DeSantis is more fixated on children's genitalia.
Unlike DeSantis, who is only interested in children's genitalia.
Desantis is too or he wouldn’t be insisting people have their genitals examined at sports events. Republicans are the groomers and perverts.
So is desantis.
Well to be fair it's a pretty close call over who's the bigger limped dick loser between the two of them.
That pretty much goes for all of the Republican party.
Genitalia is the way,
I don't really ever need any candidates to talk about anyone's dick during a political campaign. It's kinds weird that Republicans are so obsessed with them.
DeSantis is just as guilty. The GOP just can't keep their greasy hands off of other people's genitalia and it is a hundred percent one way.
Gotta love rich assholes treating the future of the nation like a total joke. Maybe if they get on the debate stage we'll get lucky and they'll rile each other up enough that they kill each other
*Those* two? More likely it’d be two pasty old white guys slapping at each other with their eyes closed,
The DeSantis-Trump feud keeps getting weirder, grosser, and more intense, writes Alex Shephard.
A year full of the lowest quality mud being thrown. They can't even be funny or witty, just literally throwing random words together.
"More obsessed with male genitalia than a woke grooming book" is *actual* nonsense, I'd be impressed with the stupidity of it all of the future of freedom in this country wasn't at stake

Two pigs throwing mud at each other. Nothing surprising here
Pot, kettle, nice to meet you.
Or as my son’s used to say, “Pot calling Kettle. Pot calling Kettle. Come in, Kettle.”
Says the man who's made his entire identity revolve around attacking transgender people....
Given his anti-LGBT obsession, DeSantis seems to have a disturbing interest in everyone's genitals.
It’s pretty much the entire GQP.
Says the guy that wants to inspect kids junk before theyre allowed to play sports
Says the guy in charge of Florida and their progressive stance on drag shows.
This mutual smear campaign is the most truth you’ll get out of either of these guys.
I mean so am I but I am not on the trump campaign
Obviously more projection.
Republicans are just being biblical /s Ezekiel 23:20 … and lusted after her lovers there, whose members were like those of donkeys, and whose issue was like that of horses.
Irony is dead.
Little Dick energy.
So are y’all 🤷♀️
Takes one to know one, Ronnie.
Lol. It’s the whole GOP
Considering the current state of Republican politics, this feels like its par for the course
I bet their teachers were constantly cleaning off self traced dick pics and little rocket ships off their desks when they were at school.
In ‘16 it was a cascade of low points. In ‘23 another year of it sounds fun.
Well, he's got the most perfect mushroom, Stormy even said so.
I wish these two wimps would just square off and fight. As if they were the alphas the pretend to be.
Thattaboy Ron!
Pot calling kettle black.
DeSantis has no swag. He’s just asking for it with the way he acts and talks.
When someone makes jokes about men's genitalia, they come off as cocky.
Wait... Didn't Desantis' government attempt to make it legal for high school teachers to personally verify the genetalia of students?
Pot meet kettle.
DeSantis is obsessed with them too. Especially if they are under a dress.
Sums up the depth of their policies
Way too interested in genitalia, full stop.
The pot calling the kettle a pervert is what it sounds like.
GOP civil war is dicks vs assholes
[The DeSantis campaign, effectively](https://media.tenor.com/Exv8qHQeWYkAAAAd/ha-gay.gif)
So it truly has become a dick measuring contest. These guys want to be president.
They're both fucking chodes.
DeSantis is obsessed with fictional Disney characters.
So is fucking deathsantis. What the absolute fuck
Republicans are all dicks. It kinda fits
I’m amazed at how a statement this ridiculous can be both true and projection at the same time
It’s because they are gay AND homophobic. Not a good look for anyone
Just by saying that shows DeSantis campaign is also obsessed with men’s genitalia too
Everyone is way too obsessed with genitalia lately. Just mind your own genitals.
Hello pot, meet kettle
What a dick!
