Serious Supreme Court to Decide Whether Landmark Civil Rights Law Applies to Gay and Transgender Workers

good fucking god

 

how am i not even surprised

 

inb4 "no"

 

oh boy I sure hope I have rights

 

If the trans person can properly do their job what's the issue?

 

i mean there isnt one

the problem by law, is that until very recently they didn't really exist and thus their rights were not considered

 

Trans people have existed for a long, long time- even before Stonewall. Just not in the eyes of the public or the law. It was certainly far from mainstream, too.

until very recently in human history have they existed on a large enough scale publicly to require changes/additions to law

mind that i am not against nor for anything regarding those things, just pointing it out

 

Holy fucking shit

Who makes the drugs for these people

 

Colombian coca plant farmers, mostly

 

I don't think you can pass off "decades of active bigotry" as "oops we forgot/didnt know they existed"

if that were the case there wouldn't have been a surge of progressiveism in LGBT+ rights in the 50s that got flipped and turned into outright persecution in the US

 

moscow/cocaine mitch's FIL supplies the republican party with cocaine so they get high and do stuff like this

 

Most people in the US are employed at will (i.e. can be fired for no reason at all) so no matter the decision, I can’t see this changing a whole lot

If you want job security, you can’t rely on some Supreme Court decision but your own investigation into which companies and employers offer the best history of job security

 

"actually, it's okay if it's legal to fire workers for what they were born as, because all workers should be treated as disposable cattle regardless!" is not a good argument

 

Citation, please?

you can also unionize but you know what big companies think of that. . .
Walmart, I'm looking at you.

 

boy howdy i sure do love living in america

nothing like the fucking doj asking for literal legal permission to allow discrimination against people based on a technicality for absolutely no fucking reason

really gets the ol patriot pride going seeing what a great and not at all cockfucked nation i live in

Merged:

the absolute state of walmart and its reputation is scarily representative of america as a whole right now lmao

 

why don't you just come out and say that you're a bigoted nonce instead of beating around the bush

 

maybe jumping to the bigoted conclusion is a bit of a leap right off the bat even if the argument is kinda fundamentally flawed

i mean maybe i’m completely wrong mostly cause i dunno the guy but i do gotta day “inflammatory” doesn’t seem the right path to go down here — even if i do agree with pretty much every other point you’ve made thus far this might be a bit apprehensive

 

I've seen a fair amount of Pootis Mann's current affairs contributions to make a pretty accurate guess @OneClassyBanana
