Rules:

  1. The mods are fallible; if you've been banned or had a post/comment removed, please appeal.
  2. Off-topic posts will be removed. If you don't know what "Leopards ate my Face" is, try reading this post.
  3. If the reason your post meets Rule 1 isn't in the source, you must add a source in the post body (not the comments) to explain this. If the reason is in the source but is tedious to find (e.g. in a lengthy video), you must add an explanation for where it is.
  4. Posts should use high-quality sources (for a rough idea, check out this list), and posts should retain the title (if one exists) from works like news articles, videos, etc. You may (but need not) edit your post if the source changes the title. Other types of posts should have a title which accurately, relatively neutrally describes their contents.
  5. For accessibility reasons, an image of text must either have alt text or a transcription in the post body.
  6. Reposts within 1 year or the Top 100 of all time are subject to removal. Within moderator discretion, this doesn't just include reposts of the exact same media but also includes e.g. a secondary source telling basically the exact same story as another that was already posted.
  7. This is not exclusively a US politics community. You're encouraged to post stories about anyone from any place in the world at any point in history as long as you meet the other rules.
  8. All Lemmy.World Terms of Service apply.

Jenner noted that the policy could affect her ability to vote, adding that she did not believe the policy was "really thought out, what this means."

Oh, no, it was thought out: demonize and literally cast out trans people, removing their ability to work, move away, or be vocal in support of themselves. Then you move them into camps, either for "their protection" or to "protect society from them".

My favorite part is:

"I don't blame President Trump. I love him."

Their supreme leader can do not wrong.

Totally not a cult, though.

She described having the sex marker M on her passport as a "big problem," adding: "I don't blame President Trump. I love him." Jenner said she appealed to him for help but received no response. Then the iron door to the gas chamber was slammed shut and locked from the outside. No further comment from Jenner has been forthcoming since.

Hi Caitlyn! I do believe your supreme leader wants people like you to vanish, by shutting up, by being invisible or why not by dying.

I would normally say don't submit to any of that, you have our support. But in your case out of loyalty, maybe you should shut up, find a spot to lay low, and become invisible. You see I'm much nicer to you than him: I do NOT wish you to die!

The policy was not really thought out?

It was exactly what Trump and his Heritage buddies wanted. Guess the one who didn't really think things through is one Caitlyn Jenner.

She thought she was one of the "good ones" who wouldn't be affected. I guess the problem with focusing so much on sports instead of education is that you never heard of Himmler's "one good Jew" speech. Which was essentially that everyone knew "one good Jew" that they would save but if they did that, almost every Jewish person in the country would be saved, so there would be no exceptions for "good" Jewish people. [Excluding, of course, Hitler's mother's Jewish doctor, who Hitler ordered the Gestapo to protect, and whom Hitler eventually helped emigrate to the US, along with all his personal wealth.]

The only policy not really thought out was her policy of blind loyalty towards someone who would dehumanize her to whatever extend possible, and when those were exhausted invent new ways to do so.
