I always tell people, that they won't stop at LGBTQ+ people, and will eventually go into persecuting other subcultures.

What is it with them and this absolute conviction that kids are pretending to be cats, it's literally not happening and yet they're upset about it.
If they are going to make things up and then be upset about those made up things can they not come up with something less weird than kids being cats? Why not be upset about all the Dark Lords in schools, or the uptake in alien abductions?
Because their base thinks it's real so they can claim a win over a non existent issue and their base will eat it up.
It also distracts from real issues impacting people. So they can say yeah we haven't gotten to that yet but look at all this other stuff we "fixed".
If you're complaining about gay people, you're not complaining about us denying you a living wage.
If you're complaining about transgender people, you're not complaining about us denying you medical care.
If you're complaining about furries, you're not complaining about us denying you education.
I guess we really want you to complain about those things.
It would be so funny if schools start "dressup weeks/months" with rotating theme in protest
Ironic really, given how right here the cuntservatives are just chasing their own tail.
i cannot begin to describe how utterly fucking stupid this is.
I genuinely thought i died and went to hell when i first read this, this bill doesn't even make any fucking sense. Child exhibiting "non human behaviors" could be considered "child abuse" according to this bill.
How the fuck do you even enforce this?
Fascists are so stupid, they start to believe their own propaganda. Can't even remember, or at least be bothered to remember, that they made this up to scare normies.
well also. once you drum up enough fear, you can act on that fear. when you act on that fear you can do something that masquerades as something else. they say this is about keeping furrie play out of school. but the powers they got themselves will go a long way to labeling any kind of "out of the ordinary" behavior autistic kids do as being furrie play. this is all going accrording to plan
Is the hacker known as 4Chan at it again?
The law defines "non-human" behavior "any type of behavior... [not typically] displayed by a member of the homo sapiens species,"
NATHON!! STOP ACTING LIKE A HOMO ERECTUS YOU NEANDERTHAL!
also im pretty sure "human" means 'under the homo genus' not 'homo sapien' but its not like it matters to them
Surely any behavior performed by a human is behavior that is performed by humans and therefore anything is authorized under this act. Lots of humans do dress up in cat ears, so dressing up in cat ears is human behavior.

"My fellow Americans, I'm pleased to tell you today that I've signed legislation that will outlaw Florida forever."
These are the same people that defined us all as female afterall.
Why on earth are they pursuing this. We all know this is not a real problem.
If it was a scare crow to attack trans rights, they have achieved that. They have pulverized trans rights in many places, especially bathroom access.
Who stands to gain from this? It is not a real problem!

'non-human'
this could go much darker than anti-furry biotry, which already isn't great, real fast. is your nose too big? in a non-human way? does a man have tits that are too large? in a non-human way?
Is your skin too dark to be considered human? Are you acting in a manner that the white elite deem ~~thuggish~~ non-human?
Considering this is a Texas bill it's not hard to see how it will be abused.
does your hair curl in a way that's human? is your accent fully human? what about your genitals? is that a dick, or some non-human shit?
Rent free.
Man they keep coming back to the litterbox thing, it really freaks them tf out. Even though its been debunked dozens of time, my conservative friends all swear they know a guy that knows a guy that swears he saw one for real!
The litterbox thing is so outrageous that it gives their tyrannical proposals the vineer of addressing a real problem.
But the litterbox story was fabricated, and the only grain of truth of it is that some classrooms did keep kitty litter as a mitigation against being trapped by an active shooter - another conservative-created problem.
They will continue to glom onto outrageous stories, to justify their outrageously oppressive proposals.
I was always confused by this active shooter argument. Don't classrooms have fire doors to the outside isn't that a requirement that all rooms have at least two exits.
The school I was in had both fire doors to the outside and bathrooms between the classrooms right up until upper education. Even then they still had fire doors to the outside so everyone could just leave.
Oh, the litter boxes are real...
It's just that their purpose is to be used during a school shooting lockdown.

Surgical means‽
Also why are they legislating about this. Texas schools have real problems like gun violence and illiteracy. Furries and animal role play are just things some people have always done that don't really harm anyone and given how they persist across so many cultures and times could actually be considered a natural behavior of homo sapiens like parrots' mimicry

Oppress furries Get cyberhacked
Fuck how the heck they find double entendre.acronyms for any shit they pull. Coincidentally eat shit assholes what the fuck did those poor people do to you? I don't consider myself a furry but have friends that does.
"Backronym" is the term I've always heard- starting with the acronym then coming up with what it stands for
I bet they were really proud of themselves when they worked it out as well.

Other physiological features that have not historically been assigned to the human race through a means of natural biological development
Does that forbid earrings as well? They're non-biological extensions/modifications of the human body.
technically all clothing is illegal now?

Besides them being stupid as hell to conduct this ridiculous culture war, I take issue with another thing, the name:
Forbidding Unlawful Representation of Roleplaying in Education
It's not unlawful until you forbid it. So the title makes no sense. You're not forbidding the unlawful. You're forbidding the previously lawful, making it unlawful.
Stupid assholes.

What world do these people live in? I just can't imagine this is a issue and i imagine that passing a law like this will just lead to kids definitely shitting in litter boxes because breaking the law is fun, imagine the court case of a kid dressed like a cat and pissed in a box.. straight to jail
What if they were dressed up in non-traditional furry attire? Like a sexy octopus, because I feel like the world needs more sexy octopus.
Maybe the constitution of the United States of America says something about this? Maybe like the first thing in the bill of rights? Nah I must be mistaken.

In these trying times republicans are banning ghosts and bigfoots, which are real and legitimate concerns and not fake anecdotes that have spiralled out of control in some kind right wing fetish news circles.
Furries are the ultimate dorks. I know I am very furry affiliated and most of my friends are furries... but this makes being a furry badass nyao.
Sooooo much freeedommmm.... By limiting self expression.
So we can report anyone wearing leather now?
So a furry suit made from human hair is ok? Asking for a friend
