> I recommend listening to him say in his own words how he wants people that do drag shows to have their doors kicked down and thrown in prison: Fair enough, this guy seems pretty out of touch with reality listening to this clip. I’ll listen more carefully to similar speech in the future. > Sam something. I'm out right now, can't remember name Sam Harris maybe? > I think it's a little curious you said it like that instead of "I don't understand why we separate bathroom based on gender " I assume men aren’t protesting women (gender or sex) entering their bathroom, the issue has always come across as a protect women from creeps thing. Your version is better though. > Schools across the usa are limiting trans students rights to use bathrooms, getting banned from participating in sports, etc. Just more protection stuff afaict, in the case of sports around sex-based physical differences leading to unfair advantage and possible physical harm. Am I uninformed and transpeople are getting banned outright? > I also avoid usa news now, mostly because it depresses me Yeah feel that, I just feel helpless and scared reading the news. It’s a beautiful country though, and on a person-by-person basis I’ve found people to be mostly wonderful. I try to hold on to that. > I don't get why you're like... Downplaying that there's violence against LGBT people in the usa? Violence against LGBT people is a reality, it’s just rare enough and punished sufficiently now that I’m prepared to mourn but write it off (from a personal risk perspective) as the occasional savage and continue going to gay bars unworried. I’m more frightened about getting mugged on my way to the bar. That or people not listening if it does start getting really bad because people just stop believing us.
