Rules:

  1. The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
  2. Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
  3. If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
  4. Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
  5. For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
  6. Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
  7. This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
  8. All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

Jenner noted that the policy could affect her ability to vote, adding that she did not believe the policy was "really thought out, what this means."

Oh, no, it was thought out: demonize and literally cast out trans people, removing their ability to work, move away, or be vocal in support of themselves. Then you move them into camps, either for "their protection" or to "protect society from them".

My favorite part is:

"I don't blame President Trump. I love him."

Their supreme leader can do not wrong.

Totally not a cult, though.

She described having the sex marker M on her passport as a "big problem," adding: "I don't blame President Trump. I love him." Jenner said she appealed to him for help but received no response. Then the iron door to the gas chamber was slammed shut and locked from the outside. No further comment from Jenner has been forthcoming since.

The policy was not really thought out?

It was exactly what Trump and his Heritage buddies wanted. Guess the one who didn't really think things through is one Caitlyn Jenner.

[–] aramis87@fedia.io 31 points 3 weeks ago

She thought she was one of the "good ones" who wouldn't be affected. I guess the problem with focusing so much on sports instead of education is that you never heard of Himmler's "one good Jew" speech. Which was essentially that everyone knew "one good Jew" that they would save but if they did that, almost every Jewish person in the country would be saved, so there would be no exceptions for "good" Jewish people. [Excluding, of course, Hitler's mother's Jewish doctor, who Hitler ordered the Gestapo to protect, and whom Hitler eventually helped emigrate to the US, along with all his personal wealth.]

[–] Witchfire@lemmy.world 81 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (6 children)

I'm a trans woman living abroad. I'm in the middle of reviving my documents from my birth country because my US passport is about to expire but I can't renew it. It has caused a ton of stress as you'd Imagine. I'm grateful I have a second country to fall back on, but a lot of people in the same position don't, and it's absolutely terrifying and a human rights violation.

All just to say, on behalf of the trans community, choke on a gangrenous dick Caitlyn

Bonus: Kudos to my Central American birth country for understanding and being massively helpful after 30 years away

[–] HeyThisIsntTheYMCA@lemmy.world 9 points 3 weeks ago

My trans sister from abroad is in the process of getting her passport from her other citizenship and they only recognize her ghost identity. But it is better than the rights currently afforded under USA law so we're getting her protected.

"I haven't heard from him," she said. "He's kind of busy right now. My gender marker is not big on the issue. OK. So I get that, and I'm not blaming him whatsoever. I love the guy, and I love what he's doing."

Take a stance or STFU. If you love it, then STFU and take it like a beta. It's what you want.

[–] 8oow3291d@feddit.dk 11 points 3 weeks ago (1 children)

I love the guy, and I love what he’s doing.

What exactly is it she thinks Trump is doing so well? Trump genuinely has done nothing good, right?

[–] Sunflier@lemmy.world 11 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago) (2 children)

Trump genuinely has done nothing good, right?

Everything he's done has been good . . . for the rich. Overwhelmingly cut taxes for the top? Good for the rich.

Overwhelmingly print money? Good for the rich.

Decimate the communities of the poor? Good for the rich.

Hike up gas prices? Good for the rich.

Scapegoat a vulnerable population when people were starting to realize how caustic the Epstein class is? Good for the rich.

Killing off infrastructure and mass-transit projects? Good for the rich.

Spying on and setting up a massive database on the general population? Good for the rich.

Leaking all the government's personally identifiable information on its population to Musk via DOGE? Good for the rich.

I remember being a kid and for a while Jenner was literally The American. The athlete on the cereal box, on the TV, in the news.

Don't give in to the hate, people. Associate yourself with the polity that embraces a diverse, pluralistic democracy and who value science over faith. Else the leopards eat your face.

[–] lemonhead2@lemmy.world 22 points 3 weeks ago (4 children)

wait, was she a trump supporter?

Caitlyn Jenner is one of the most famous examples of pulling the ladder up after yourself

[–] Clent@lemmy.dbzer0.com 27 points 3 weeks ago

She's clearly still got at least one foot on the ladder or she wouldn't be raising an issue here. That's a special kind of stupid.

True story: Bruce Jenner was an active race car driver in the 90s. The series he participated in was the Trans Am series.

[–] TheTechnician27@lemmy.world 7 points 3 weeks ago* (last edited 3 weeks ago)

I understand that your comment relies on the understanding that Caitlyn Jenner's deadname is Bruce Jenner, that the joke is that she participated in a racing series that's nearly "Am Trans", and that she went by Bruce when she was actively racing.

To avoid deadnaming, I'd still ask that you use language like "Caitlyn Jenner (formerly Bruce Jenner) was [...]" and "The series she participated in [...]" (or something similar). I totally get that none of your comment was meant as transphobia; I even used to think that "historical deadnaming" was the best way to write to avoid confusion, so I sympathize. I eventually realized, though, as e.g. on Wikipedia's article for Elliot page, that using their real gender and their chosen name historically is not confusing and is just more accurate to how being transgender actually works – i.e. that it's not a decision somebody makes one day.

I don't think it's severe enough to rub up against Lemmy.World Terms of Service Rule 1.2 as "discrimination against queer groups", so this is just a polite request and hopefully food for thought.

This better not awaken something in them

There are plenty of recent pictures of her at Mar-a-lago. She's not just a supporter, she's someone that has been to his parties

No criticisms of this one.

CJ deserves this shit and I hope Donald makes her roll around in it. It's one thing when it's a random joe getting targeted for fascism and another when you're an independently wealthy collaborator who knows full well the monster you're supporting.
