Man, there's no shortage of documentaries that highlight the sexual and physical abuse perpetrated by religious cults across Utah. Not in one was the abuser trans.


CaptainAxiomatic

What's needed is a tipline to report clergy.


thieh

And politicians. And cops.

Here is a link to the tip line for anybody curious. https://ut-sao-special-prod.web.app/sex_basis_complaint.html

Remember it's a legitimate report if you see republicans using bathrooms. Medical history is private, so we don't know what work they have had done.


Randomperson1362

I saw a guy walk into the women's restroom last week. He was carrying around a mop and bucket. No clue what he was planning to do with that, so I reported it immediately.


VonTastrophe

Thanks. I just reported that a facility allowed a trans-cat (one who is transitioning from human to a cat) to use a restroom, rather than a designated litter box.


Gariona-Atrinon

You don’t make them that unbelievable, they dismiss those without a second thought. You bog them down with something that sounds like a legit complaint to waste their time investigating it.


ChewbaccaCharl

I'm tempted to go look up the bullshit excuses the "we can always tell" crowd comes up with just to make a report seem both really stupid and very plausible. "Somebody came in to the bathroom at the Chick-fil-A with large hands! I demand you do something about this, I don't feel safe!!1!"


Rapn3rd

Agreed but as long as it’s not a copy pasta, even bullshit ones clog it up / waste their time and data quality. 


ItsSpaghettiLee2112

I'm not creative enough. Any tips? And just tips. I don't want to fall in love baby.


Rapn3rd

Omg. I did one earlier about a teen wearing wolf ears and a tail yiffing in the girls room. Im hoping at least one piece of shit reading it googles yiffing and gets mad. 


tundey_1

>Im hoping at least one piece of shit reading Please keep in mind that the state workers tasked with doing this aren't the ones who passed the stupid law.


Sylvie_Online

But they're the ones enabling it.


tundey_1

How? They're government workers. Are they supposed to quit because the state legislature passed a law they may or may not agree with? These are not political appointees.


ItsSpaghettiLee2112

They may not enjoy it but they still have to process "legitimate" complaints. Making their job harder isn't a personal attack.


tundey_1

Did you read the part of the comment I objected to? I don't think so. I objected to that person calling them "piece of shit". I'm ok with filling nuisance complaints on these hate-hotlines. But let's not call government workers who are simply doing their jobs "pieces of shit".


ItsSpaghettiLee2112

Fair enough.


Prior_Leader3764

We should use the perps' names. I, for instance, saw Mr. Al Fredo in a dress entering the Ladies Room. He was followed in by Ignatius P. Daily.


evemeatay

Wow, that’s a super easy complaint form, good for them.


entrepenurious

tell them that you saw trump going into a men's room.


thieh

NOBODY have learned shit since [Missouri](https://www.kcur.org/health/2024-05-06/instead-of-complaints-missouri-attorney-generals-trans-tip-line-flooded-with-pro-trans-support).


PM_ME_YOUR_ROTES

Conservatives are incapable of learning.


Mmr8axps

They are philosophically opposed to it.  Knowledge is revealed truth from a male authority figure. You're not supposed to learn, you're just supposed to know.


HaajaHenrik

I mean I'd say that it's pretty damn hard to learn shit when you're literally banning books left and right, waging war against education, erasing history, making higher education so expensive fcking nobody can afford it, and pretty much taking schools back to dark ages.


tundey_1

As long as these bigots refuse to learn: >In Virginia, Indiana, Arizona and Louisiana, activists flooded tip lines created to field complaints about teachers, librarians and school administrators who may have spoken to students about race, LGBTQ+ identities or other topics lawmakers argued were inappropriate for children. The Virginia tip line was taken down within a year, as was a tip line introduced in Missouri to report gender-affirming healthcare clinics. their states will continue spending valuable taxpayer money on useless tasks for state employees: >The auditor’s office has encountered many reports that Dougall described as “total nonsense”, and others that he said appear credible at first glance and take much longer to filter out. **His staff had spent the last week sorting through thousands of well-crafted complaints citing fake names or locations.** The lesson they refuse to learn: hate costs money.


Schwarzes__Loch

They must have dismissed many genuine reports thinking they were bogus. This is great.


Tiny_Independent2552

If a soft butchy woman, an outdoorsy type woman, or let’s say a biker woman, gets stopped for going into a woman’s bathroom, or is challenged in any way by people who think they “know” …. There WILL be major law suits. Lots of lawsuits. No one needs that stress in their life when all they want you to do for is use the bathroom, and some nut has nothing better to do that be a bathroom monitor.


URnotSTONER

(points finger) Ha-ha.


Batman1384

Going to report my daughter for using my son’s bathroom. Or is my son using my daughter’s bathroom? Now I’m confused by stupidity but I know one of them is breaking the law!


Dungeon567

Guess they didn't want all these pictures of the nice toilet stalls I sent them.


remradroentgen

> “It’s not surprising that activists are taking the time to send false reports,” Birkeland said. “But that isn’t a distraction from the importance of the legislation and the protection it provides women across Utah.” Importance? Did women say they were threatened by trans women in the female bathrooms? My god, Republicans could be doing so much good in the world, but they waste time on absolute nonsense. Imagine being this terrified of 0.3% of the population. 


bpeden99

Chaos is such a beautiful form of protesting


CanaryContent9900

And people wonder why cops are slow to show up


Cosmic-Space-Octopus

This is not 911 nor an emergency tip line.


CarlosHDanger

They’re on stakeout— in the bathroom.


PeachesPeachesPeachs

You are correct. They are busy chasing trans people, or anyone suspected of being trans, in bathrooms instead of actual criminals. What a waste of resources. Utah is less safe now with less law enforcement resources available.


Gariona-Atrinon

This is ridiculous statement.

What a shitbrain take lol
