Ex-Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel spouts transphobic talking points to Bill Maher.

"Look, in seventh grade, if I had known that I could have said the word ‘They’ and got in the girls bathroom, I would have done it."

I'm friends with a teacher. She once told the principal that a male student had been caught lifting the female students' skirts. The principal told him that she should just ignore it and that he used to do the same thing when he was the boy's age.

So... Yeah.

“Barring trans people from the bathrooms they belong in is just the price you have to pay to keep me, Rahm Emmanuel, away from your children”

The only thing between these men and a life of sexually violating people was that they didn't know about trans people. What's stopping them now?

I’m always wondering what they think happens in women’s washrooms ever since one said they don’t want trans women using them because they might see a woman’s vagina.

mmanes.bsky.social•3 days ago

This. Like, who's fetish is it to listen to women pee & poop and then watch them wash their hands?

Fuck Rahm Emanuel.

ducks4real.bsky.social•3 days ago

Or just a pervert.

WTAF?

ankylodad.bsky.social•3 days ago

Pretty sure people like Rahm have figured it out.

Scat freak.

notable that key aides of the only two term democratic presidents since in nearly a century are both people you wouldn’t let babysit your kid

It’s weird how liberal commentators can’t ever stand up for the rights of women and girls. Boys should not be allowed in girls bathrooms.

axama.bsky.social•3 days ago

I think it's weirder that conservatives care more about trans people just living life than they do about the multiple rapists they've installed in power lately.

janes2024.bsky.social•3 days ago

Totally. But in my case I’m a liberal and I don’t care about trans people just living life. I care about trans women taking away rights from women.

i would say the obstacles to being a sexual predator as a cis guy are... not that high, and actually quite a bit lower than the costs associated with living as a gender nonconforming kid in contemporary america, so the game theory never really checks out to me with this one

I've been a female all my life and have never seen a toilet with any kind of policing/security at the door. Anyone can go in. At school I reckon every boy got pushed into the girls bogs and called gay (?) at least once. Nothing interesting happens in there...

janes2024.bsky.social•3 days ago

Okay but for girls how are they supposed to know the difference? You want to let all boys into girls bathrooms?

noamchompers.bsky.social•4 days ago

obviously we're in a moment of things getting worse in all sorts of material ways, but i do sorta think over the medium term it's going to abruptly become completely shocking that people ever said this sort of thing out loud

Every time a member of the commentariat says things like that in front of a camera or in an article I put them on The List (one British commentator openly said in a column he could never teach at a school for children because he would rape the girls, this was taken as hilarious and relatable)

Jfc whaaat is that headline 😭

nateo.bsky.social•3 days ago

I keep forgetting Americans and Canadians sometimes don’t know deep UK media lore, yeah, like, it’s just like this, all the time, and if their systems of publication were obliterated by a coordinated attack in an instant, I could not compel myself to express sadness

nicemangos.bsky.social•3 days ago

I am blown away... But it def explains some things 😬

nateo.bsky.social•4 days ago

What’s a bit dodgy is that isn’t even the column I was referring to, it’s just another time he told everybody he looks at CSAM, it was this one

stairwaytokevin.bsky.social•4 days ago

Wtf…

nateo.bsky.social•4 days ago

British media must be destroyed completely

Pedocon theory is truly undefeated

Yeah, that’s Rod Liddle. He cut short his honeymoon with his first wife to sleep with his secretary, who would ultimately be his second wife. He then beat his second wife when she was pregnant. This columns are odious. That’s British media.

Taki (who wrote for the same magazine), in my opinion, may be worse. Supported Golden Dawn, is connected to numerous big-name neo-Nazis and race science types through his website, and was finally let go after he was convicted of attempted rape at a Swiss chalet in 2023.
