Hahaha, you think a gay dude's getting one of Trump's golden tickets for US citizenship? I mean come on, has he even raped any women? Remember, trans ones don't count!

i absolutely hate this, and at the same time, you're entirely on point here. it's beginning to feel a lot like sex crimes are a rite of passage to the new regime, bonus points if it's a hate crime directed at a trans person

What do you mean "sex crimes"? There's about to be no such thing by the end of the next 4 years. Women won't be able to report crimes

[–] peoplebeproblems@midwest.social 18 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I'm pretty certain they'll still be able to report a crime, but it becomes selectively enforced and used to control people.

Or they encourage victims to speak up, then force them to marry their rapist and remove all agency from them in that marriage to prevent them from speaking about it again.

Or both.

Or something worse than all of the above.

No, I bet they won't be able to. Their husbands/fathers would be able to, but not them.

Remember, as recently as the 1970's a woman would need permission from her husband or father for a line of credit or bank account.

Sex crimes happen to men, too.

[–] WarlockoftheWoods@lemy.lol 12 points 6 days ago

I wasn't talking about men, I was talking about women.

I'm honestly surprised they haven't lowered the age of consent to 12 whilst accusing transpeople of being pedos at the same time somehow.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

I'm reminded of a comment by a representative in West Virginia when they were considering raising the age of marriage to something less awful about how doing so would undermine their way of life

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Jesus Christ, at this point when they tell on themselves I mostly just get scared because I realize there are fucking pedos everywhere.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 2 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Yeah I remember being furious about it. Like I'm generally pro teenagers doing whatever teenagers will do with each other so long as it's consensual and they have proper sex ed. But people under the age of majority should not be marrying adults. It contains a crippling power dynamic and fucks them up

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 1 points 4 days ago

That's exactly my stance.

[–] IndiBrony@lemmy.world 30 points 6 days ago

If you have 5 million, surely you'd just use that to live in a different country?

[–] HawlSera@lemm.ee 18 points 6 days ago (1 children)

I think trans ones count if you fuck em over instead of just merely fucking them....

Just saying, my bf wishes he could fuck me as hard as the US Government does

Brand new sentence

Very possibly, if you can get him in the same room as Trump and he does a good enough job of brown nosing.

The Donald is a notorious queen, loves Broadway, loves gay culture and appropriates it with abandon, and would happily make a pageant of granting clemency to Joe Exotic's husband if he was in his 2020 celebrity heyday rather than the dustbin of Netflix history.

I mean come on, has he even raped any women?

Given the guy's history... I'm not counting it out.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago* (last edited 5 days ago) (1 children)

I've never seen him partake in gay culture or appropriate it even

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Pretty naked about it in his first term.

[–] captainlezbian@lemmy.world 1 points 5 days ago (1 children)

He was handed that flag at a rally. Holding a flag and participating in or appropriating a culture are wildly different things

[–] UnderpantsWeevil@lemmy.world 1 points 4 days ago

He was handed that flag at a rally.

By a campaign staffer.

Does this mean trans-rape is 21st century lynching?
