His election has communities of trans people and their allies fearful of widespread discrimination and a loss of health care access.

Polls show that more than 60 percent of Americans support protecting transgender people from discrimination. But they have also found that 55 percent believe support for trans rights has — quote — "gone too far."

We spoke with three Americans, a parent of a trans daughter, the executive director of a trans crisis hot line, and a two-spirit activist and parent to a two-spirit kid. That's a term used by indigenous people that acknowledges the diverse nature of gender and sexuality.

Well that's a new tern I never heard of. I'm no expert on indigenous religions, but for the most part from what I've seen indigenous religions are very family based and only have two genders.

As an aside I hope Elon And Vivek decimate PBS and NPR funding.

Who’s threatening to take away anyone’s rights??? Typical for what we have come to expect from a dying MSM.

The proposition that these tiny pressure groups that the Left keeps inventing, like the “trans community”, have unique rights that the rest of us don’t, is the root of this evil. There’s no such thing as “trans rights”.

The violence to our language is extreme.

“Gender affirming care” = gender denying care dangerously experimenting on children potentially ending their lives early. Testosterone has been shown to increase cancer rates, for just one example.

“Some fear” = MSM scared the heck out of them during the election to get votes for leftists.

In the case of PBS all local station licenses must be pulled.

These stations are leftist propaganda organs and do not serve the public interest.

No, they only have two sexes.

Gender is a language term, sex is biology.

In many societies people who were sodomites or crazy or had some other sorts of deformity were regarded as "god touched" and were regarded with pity. And if the tribe was in trouble they were selected to be the "messenger to the god(s)". And they had to deliver the message in person.

You have every right to put your Mental Illness on display for everyone to see, but NOBODY is required to Play Along with your Mental Illness or Affirm your Mental Illness as normal and Acceptable.

It took FOUR writers to come up with this crap. The PBS should be cut from Fed funds and die or use private/corporate money for their nonsense.

Except they can’t name a SINGLE right at risk, except their invented “right” to make everyone else go along with their delusion.

They’ll have the exact same “rights” as all Americans do. They just won’t get any extra for being sexual deviants.

Nobody’s rights are being threatened.

Their special privileges , however......

They just don’t want to lose those.
