How pathetic is it to respond to political difficulties by ramping up your persecution of trans people? I can't think of a lower move, except perhaps supporting any politician who does this.

Distractions. Distractions, distractions, distractions.

That's the whole conservative game on both sides of the border.

Get a boogeyman, focus your populace on the boogeyman while you do backdoor deals to increase you and your friends' personal wealth.

Sociopathic behaviour.

On that note, it should be illegal to hold an official position with a conflict of interest, such as owning real estate for investment purposes. It would theoretically keep rich people out of office.

I just don’t know why that isn’t a total deal breaker to so many.

They’re not even asking for much (an X on their ID or updated gender, and a new name, and literally a pot to piss in). They’re not forcing themselves on anyone. They’re not privileged or oppressing anyone.
