Joe Biden issues new statement on the transgender debate

Joe Biden is an old school bloke who probably finds the whole thing loopy but has wisely decided to step aside and let the ‘progressives’ take the lead and he’ll just rubber stamp it.

And there was me thinking he was the next US leader elected to be president for all Americans - but obviously he has wisely decided to step aside away from the same obligation for US women and girls - because they don’t count?

For despairing US folks, Forum next week on amending the EA by women’s group feminists in struggle - t.co/oDAYpVjYe0

They’re on Twitter too.

Trans people already have full human rights.

Unfortunately, unlike in the UK, in the US this isn’t the case.

If you’re trans or GNC or gay (or just perceived to be any of these things) you can still be (for example) legally evicted or denied housing on that basis alone in many states.

The recent SCOTUS case suggests this may no longer be true for employment (ground is now shakier if you fire someone for having transitioned with no other justification).

I do think, hopefully, once we can fix the actual uncontroversial issues in law that Trans people face (impossible with Trump) that we can then move to working out the details in the areas where there are conflict of rights with those of women (especially sport and prisons plus other places where women have no control over privacy).

I’m quite hopeful that with dem government there is at least a chance of progress on this with Trump gone. The job of feminists (especially feminist legal scholars’) is to work to make sure it’s done right. Protect trans rights without infringing on women’s.

It's over, ladies!!!

Please don't ever think the right wing holds anything in your interest, from religion to fascism...you're always inferior in their eyes.

Let's celebrate sanity!

When you look at Trump Vs Biden and think that human rights for a tiny proportion of the population is more worrying than the continuation of anti-woman and anti-science policies of Trump. When you think that it's fine to be on the same side as Tommy Robinson.

Trans people already have full human rights. They are trying to remove some rights from women.
If Tommy Robinson (or any other rightwinger) opposes fox-hunting (I’ve no idea if he does or not) then we agree on that. That wouldn’t make me support fox-hunting. Silly argument.

If he’d been on the ballot in my home state, I actually might have gone through the effort of requesting an overseas ballot 😂

Queenofknives President West does have a lovely ring to it 😀! Its a shame that the system is so corrupt that you need 100s of millions and the right connections just to run. I do admire Kanye for the hits he took for meeting with Trump to advocate for Prison reform (Kim too). They both saw the bigger picture and due to them there are people who have their freedom, so will always have a soft spot in my heart ❤.
It's been a doozy of a week for rappers lol with 50 cents comments and his white ec girlfriend telling him he can't vote for Trump cos he's black!😬

BelleHathor exactly! I actually watched some of that interview yesterday and thought what a shame he didn't get it together to run a campaign. I assume a write-in candidate would be highly unlikely to win but had he campaigned, he would have had a huge effect on the discussion. President Kanye West... it kind of has a ring to it, right?

If I were in the States I'd be writing in Kanye

Portland may be majority white but it, and the state of Oregon, has a pretty grim history of racial discrimination.

That's some selective cutting and pasting you just did there. The Texas man joined the protests NOT as a supporter of George Floyd but as an instigator of civil unrest because he belongs to a right wing group called the Boogaloo Bois

He was a supporter of George Floyd and participated in the BLM riots. Why else would he be screaming ‘Justice for Floyd’ while shooting up a police precinct?

Right-wingers are generally pro-police. So to me, it’s a good example of the horseshoe theory irl:

Now you are just making shit up

Oh yes, and you with your ‘Southerners coming up here and causing trouble’ line that sounds fake as fuck.

The DAs in certain cities like Chicago and Portland aren’t charging most rioters and are failing to prosecute looters. Is it coincidence that Portland still has problems with rioting when their DA has made public noises that they won’t prosecute?

The irony being that Portland is about the whitest city on earth 😂

Besides, anyone with eyes can see that it’s antifa vandalizing, looting and burning down businesses. But if the police won’t lift a finger to arrest these punks and the DAs won’t prosecute them when they actually are arrested, that means their actions won’t get tabulated into any sort of criminal database.

Now you are just making shit up.

From your own article:

According to a criminal complaint, Hunter traveled from Texas to Minneapolis in late May to join in protests over George Floyd’s death

Doesn’t sound like a right-winger to me ... didn’t you read before posting? Or were you hoping that nobody would read down that far?

He was also high-fiving somebody while shouting ‘Justice for Floyd’ after shooting up that police building and bragged that he was attacking the police station with the black community. This was printed in none other than the Guardian (somewhat shockingly):

NYTimes today did a comprehensive story on how the far right is responsible for most US terrorism. It's these groups that sparked Biden to want to run for president

And white nationalist Richard Spenser endorsed Joe Biden. What’s your point again?

Besides, anyone with eyes can see that it’s antifa vandalizing, looting and burning down businesses. But if the police won’t lift a finger to arrest these punks and the DAs won’t prosecute them when they actually are arrested, that means their actions won’t get tabulated into any sort of criminal database.

And then people like you can come on here and bleat about right-wing terror all the while it’s these BLM/Antifa activists destroying our inner cities, displacing residents and forcing small businesses to shut their doors forever. Insidious.

Well what do you call someone who wants to tax the rich to give to the poor.

Using that logic Boris Johnson and Margaret Thatcher are also socialists. All governments tax the rich. Difficult to tax people who don’t have money.

A Texas man who says he is affiliated with the Boogaloo Bois anti-government movement and is suspected of opening fire on a Minneapolis police station during a protest in May is facing riot charges, a federal prosecutor announced Friday.

Thanks for the questions

Excellent parody account.
