    “In the eyes of some”? It doesn’t matter what the others think, he’s operating within the definition of fascism.

      Man is literally remaking the state’s university system in line with historical fascists and some “journalists” out there just talking about him like he’s just another conservative. The whole state is marked “do not travel” on the trans-risk map by Erin Reed, since we now live in a world where they will arrest trans people for using the bathroom, even if they’ve legally transitioned. People being like “hurdurr how will they enforce that” like bruh they will just violate your privacy

        Why is it dumb? Can you tell me how restricting rights of women to bodily autonomy is any of the state’s business or that of it’s conservative constituents? Why is there an effort to stamp out a section of society over made up fears?

          I don’t agree with it, but you must realize that the counterpoint is not with the intention to “restrict bodily autonomy” but because they believe life has value before birth. Be fair please.
