Jafoo , in New Federal Rules Protect LGBTQ People From Misgendering, Bathroom Bans

Just what we need: MORE federal laws, when we currently have too many to even count

dexa_scantron ,
@dexa_scantron@lemmy.world avatar

It’s not actually a new law, it’s a clarification of a law that already exists. The supreme court ruled in 2020 that it’s illegal to harass employees on the basis of sexuality or gender identity. The EEOC just issued a clarification that misgendering and bathroom bans count as harassment.

    Sane people don't do this dumb shit.

    Also if you are motived, you can flat out kidnap people with the free candy van you own.

    Alternatively, just stop being a creep and making everything sexual.

    Duit ,

    Ya make sure to tell that to the bathroom guards that Hunter Biden stages at every bathroom in the country, they’ll let you in every time. Enjoy all of your teen stalking desires! Good thing everyone is so woke now or else you couldn’t be a fucking creep 👍

    I’ll bite, wtf are you talking about?

    @dexa_scantron@lemmy.world avatar

    Yeah, before this rule clarification, there was a magic force field protecting all women’s bathrooms from rapists. It was literally impossible for women to get raped before we decided to protect the basic human rights and dignity of trans people. I’ve certainly never been sexually assaulted or harassed by cis men, but now I’ll have to live in fear, because of woke.

    Fedizen ,

    well you need to get the forms signed by 32 doctors over the course of 10 years and submit to a genital inspection by the campus bathroom inquisitor while carrying your stack of records that prove your gender is correct.

    LifeInMultipleChoice ,

    Stop being a rapist and you will be fine. We believe every person starts equal, if you do not. Fuck off and find yourself at home in a place like the taliban

    NoIWontPickAName ,

    You could do that anyway, it’s just decent people don’t.

    That’s how laws work

    Cethin ,

    Why would you need to count them? It’s not like the number is any reason not to make more. How stupid would that be? Let’s say we didn’t have a law against murder. I guess we’ve got too many, right? It’s too late now. I guess it stays legal.

    HurlingDurling , in TikTok is allowing users to spread manipulated videos of Biden, despite the platform's policies
    @HurlingDurling@lemmy.world avatar

    I spend just as much time on tiktok as I do on Lemmy and I have not seen a single one of these videos so… Either this extremely exaggerated or tiktok is doing something about this.

    Corkyskog ,

    It’s your bubble. Tiktok is the most echoey echo chamber of all social media.

    Now don’t get me wrong, I like tiktok, I like the algorithm, but you gotta understand what it is. I also haven’t seen one of these videos, but I am sure they are out there.

    If you want to find these videos, start a fresh profile and immediately start searching for Trump rally videos and any other right wing stuff, you will quickly get shoved into political Tiktok and I guarantee you will find some of these videos.

    papertowels ,

    The one thing I know about tik Tok is “the algorithm” zeroes in on your tastes real fast, so just because you don’t see it doesn’t mean it isn’t there, it just means you probably don’t consume political Tok toks (which sound miserable…)

    HurlingDurling ,
    @HurlingDurling@lemmy.world avatar

    My use is VERY political (~75%) so I beg to differ.

    papertowels ,

    Out of curiosity, what’s a snapshot of 75% political Tik Tok look line?

    UrPartnerInCrime ,

    I’ve seen several pf those doctored videos on my girls feed, cause she isn’t too into politics and knew I would know better.

    My guess is you watch too much politic stuff so you would know doctored stuff way too early. But to those that don’t follow its a lot easier to fool

    bartolomeo , in MTG Cites Antisemitic Fable Jews ‘Handed Over’ Jesus To Be Killed
    @bartolomeo@suppo.fi avatar

    According to the Washington Post, backers described the bill as designed to help the federal government crack down on the protests, which they see as having antisemitic elements. Some Democrats objected and argued it was an effort to restrict political protest.

    The measure passed by a vote of 320-91 on Wednesday.

    I will be very surprised if it makes it through the senate though.

    Has UCLA actually called for the police to do this? Or are these fascist copsuckers just trying to use violence to oppress free speech after assaulting people at 3am failed for them?

    Are you making the extremely bigoted assumption that just because I’m Jewish I’m in favor of circumcision?

    doublejay1999 ,
    @doublejay1999@lemmy.world avatar

    ?

    I made a comment, on a thread.

    FlyingSquid OP ,
    @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

    A thread where, at the top, I said I was Jewish.

    So, I reiterate- are you making the assumption that Jews are all in favor of circumcision?

    doublejay1999 ,
    @doublejay1999@lemmy.world avatar

    It’s really not about you, as keen as you are for it to be so.

    FlyingSquid OP ,
    @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

    I ask you again: are you making the assumption that Jews are all in favor of circumcision?

    Jews. Not just me.

    doublejay1999 ,
    @doublejay1999@lemmy.world avatar

    Why are you harassing me ?

    FlyingSquid OP ,
    @FlyingSquid@lemmy.world avatar

    I don’t think asking you to clarify is harassment, but I guess you don’t want to clarify, and I think I know why, so I won’t continue the discussion.

    testfactor ,

    The other guy is probably being a bit over the top, but your initial comment was kinda anti-Semitic, no?

    Like, if I was reading a comment thread about black people and responded, “but is it as funny as eating fried chicken and watermelon,” I don’t think someone would be out of line saying, “are you asserting that all black people just eat fried chicken and watermelon?”

    And then saying the thread isn’t about them isn’t exactly absolving the initial comment is it? The comment would still be racist, no?

    Idk man, that guy got disproportionately hot about it I think, but your initial comment was a bit rough too, right?

    nondescripthandle , in Whistleblower Josh Dean of Boeing supplier Spirit AeroSystems has died

    When it comes to dealing with those opposing any facets of the MIC, the US is already a fascist state. Your freedoms do not extend to any part of the MIC, they exist above you and your needs

    NaibofTabr ,

    Imagine talking about the US being a fascist state because a guy died in a hospital from MRSA… and then probably still believing that you’re right. What a way to live.

    Remember folks, extreme views (of every stripe) harm the discussion and impede progress and are generally wrong because they ignore facts in order to support the narrative (they bend reality to fit their story, rather than bend their story to fit reality).

    afraid_of_zombies ,

    Ok let’s talk about facts. Two whistleblowers died in the same lawsuit died in a very close period of time. Now, deal with that fact.

    RedAggroBest ,

    Coincidences happen sometimes, believe it or not.

    afraid_of_zombies ,

    I see so when you meant talking about facts you mean dismissing them when they run contra to your narrative. Why didn’t you just start by saying that? Save us both some time.

    taanegl , in House passes antisemitism bill with broad bipartisan support amid campus arrests

    I propose the “Colonization Remembrance Group” and the “Colonization Remembrance Act”. Just replace all mentions of holocaust denial with colonization denial, and all mentions of anti-semitism with pro-colonizer.

    Does it? It’s not like we have zero supportive communities.

    ChihuahuaOfDoom ,

    We definitely have supportive communities but it seems like bigotry in general has only seen a boon in recent years though violence in general is down so I don’t really know. Maybe the 10% of LGBTQ+ youth are on the left coast and nothing has really changed over there.

    HuddaBudda , in House passes antisemitism bill with broad bipartisan support amid campus arrests
    @HuddaBudda@kbin.social avatar

    Going through it, it seems that most of this is performative, as hate speech laws have more teeth then this bill.

    What I don't like is the broad interpretation of antisemitism, however, I don't see how this law can hurt protesters. As most of the protests I've seen aren't including hateful message towards the Jewish population, but more of a criticism of colleges/officials donating to a genocide.

    Unless... criticizing genocides are anti-semetic.... then all hail the god emperor.
