Political Discussion

So, my sister, who is trans had an appointment with her doctor this morning.

She had a serious conversation with her doctor about gender related healthcare next year that her doctor initiated.

Her doctor fully expects that insurance will not cover hormones being prescribed for gender related healthcare and to start planning ahead.

In addition, this is the best case scenario of what could happen next year.

While the federal government can't ban gender affirming care at the federal level and that can only be done at the state level. Her doctor said it's very much an acting conversation in the medical community right now that the federal government could force states from providing this care by withholding federal funding to a state that provides gender confirming care. And it may not just be for minors, it very well could be for everyone in general.


Doesn't sound good.

Court ruling stops Louisiana from requiring Ten Commandments in classrooms for now

Louisiana’s plan to make all public school classrooms in the state post the Ten Commandments remains on hold under a federal appeals court ruling in New Orleans.

The state contends that deGravelles’ order affects only the five school districts that are defendants in a legal challenge. But it’s unclear whether or how the law would be enforced in the state’s 67 other districts while the appeal progresses.

This could get interesting. 🍿🍿🍿

The amount of efforts conservatives go through to get their way. I hope they get shut down here.

I've been hearing this from several trans friends who research trans laws. The agenda this time has been researched to bypass legal challenges and checks. If there's a loophole, a bigot lawyer from the Heritage Foundation has spent the last four years figuring them all out.

Countrr argument: they are socially much more progressive then they are economically and that hurts them and alot of issues. It would be better to Form allirnced withvtze poor and the working class if they would profit economically from demselben politics but they are basically neoliberale as well. We see that on europe, too. I recently saw a somewhat feel-good movie about how gay activist group ( i think in the 80s) were supporting miners strikes in England and coming to the miners towns to support them. They were not very welcome but miners needed every support they could get and in the years after miners would be marching with the Christopher Street days parade. I think that's the coalitions we are missing right now and we will need to keep neo-facism at bay
