“It’s so frustrating to watch because that is the only perspective that a lot of people are going to get. The only trans person they’re gonna hear from is—well, they’re not even gonna hear from that trans person—they’re gonna hear from Tucker Carlson screaming about how this is leading to the end of society.”
This is particularly troubling to host Andy Levy as he points out that attacks on trans rights—and LGBTQ rights more generally—seem to be increasing and becoming bolder, from Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis’ “Don’t Say Gay Bill” to bathroom and sports legislation all across the country. “It’s a recipe for discrimination and it’s gonna hurt a lot of people. That’s something that I’m really worried about, especially as it concerns these attacks on what people can learn in school, because this kind of echoes the 2013 law that Russia implemented, the gay propaganda law that they put [into law] over there. It became illegal to put things out in public that exposed children to basically being gay or being trans and promoting it in any sense.
Also on this episode: Molloy and Andy discuss the GOP’s hypocrisy when it comes to anti-trans legislation, why the right’s outrage with pronouns is “fake,” and the latest in the Elon Musk Twitter saga.
Are there no LBGT republicans? Why do they look at this as some sort of winning talking point with their base? The LBGT community is as much apart of the fabric of America as any other group. Why such hated of them. What have they done to warrent such disdane from the right?
No one is 'outraged' at pronouns, we laugh at it because it's ridiculous We are outraged that the government and corporations are working fascistically to enforce made up pronouns bullshit You are fascists and this fraud admin is on your side, that does bother us
Most don’t even know what a pronoun is
Not as obsessed as you are with Tucker Carlson.
He is also obsessed with men tanning their testicles and the sexiness of his M&Ms, so what he says about trans Americans is hardly worth considering.
Tran huh?
You lost me at ‘Parker Molloy’
ParkerMolloy This was so amazing! What a great interview and thank you for all of your advocacy!! 🤗
ParkerMolloy Well he is a huge piece of trash so
ParkerMolloy They actually do a pretty good job of exposing themselves on public platforms like TikTok and Twitter.
ParkerMolloy Which often means he’s paying a transgender hooker to eat his frozen fish
His pathetic father was rabidly anti-trans. Apple, tree, fall, distance.
ParkerMolloy Murdoch needs to keep his hateful viewers engaged with a daily diet of more hate. Transphobia is the Soup of the Day.
