A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Avoid politics
- NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
- Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
- Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
- Posts must be original/unique
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

To be fair, the GOP has shifted so far Right, that conservative opinions nowadays are less "We need to be more fiscally responsible and try solutions outside of throwing money at problems." and more "So lemme tell you which minorities don't deserve rights and the specific reasons why they don't... the short version is it's all of them.. except my asian wife and my black friend... for now.."
Bullshit. Just more of the hateful bigotry of the left than has divided things so greatly. You won't even engage, just mock an increasingly non existent strawmen
Trans people in red states say you're full of shit.
And your comment history reveals you as a lying fascist.
I guess my Florida based insurance provider dropping coverage for my HRT is "just a strawman" turns out
'My private anecdote disproves targeted state action!'
Jog on.
Asking if I misword something? I'm saying insurance companies are being actively complicit on this ongoing fascist movement by denying trans people coverage to HRT.
