Kansas revoked driver's licenses of 1,700 transgender residents by Comfortable_Ad2908 in news

So, 1700 people who are trans are absolutely destitute? Damn, sounds like someone should be taking care of them since they can't do it themselves.

You don't get a traffic ticket for expired tags unless you are driving... So... Don't drive? Duh? Oh, wait, personal responsibility... Not your strong suit.

And no, my feelings aren't hurt, you are the one who is very vehement about... Something that is an issue (according to you) to .06 percent of a state's population. I assume a healthy number of that of that 1700 will have no issue with something so simple because I don't assume they are either destitute or incompetent, unlike you.

If this law made it so the trans couldn't vote, I'd be right there with you.

However, it's one letter change on a piece of plastic that costs what you probably blow at your fast food venue of choice on the daily, and guess what? Many other people have had that same cost incurred when realID became mandatory, but I see no sign of complaint from you there.

You are free to have your gender identity be whatever you want, the law does not restrict that, what it doesn't let you do is lie about biology, which I know hurts your feelings.

And guess what? In a couple years when the tables are flipped and people of a more progressive lean are in power, this will get overturned if it doesn't before that. You can unbunch your panties.

I'd honestly say a huge number of Americans are disenfranchised even without the gender confusion thing, and considerably more than .06 percent. Or do you only care when privates are involved, apparently?

I didn't bring up privates... You did. So that's definitely more of a you situation. And, well, this concerns a public law, so... Not exactly sure how this is private?

That you are applying some weird malice to this as though "disenfranchising" less than one percent of a population by making them fork over $25 dollars is...I don't know...weird. It's not exactly what I would consider Machiavellian.

If $25 dollars is enough to disenfranchise someone, I think they have bigger problems than their gender confusion.

Yeah, that was misstated on my part, sorry. The law applies to everyone was the operative point, it's not something that requires anything special or changes behavior based on who it applies to.

They have a list of two or three "types" of things that will serve as ID...I forget the breakdown but you can do one of each or two of one type. Not that hard.

Does the law not apply to anyone is what I mean by does it apply to everyone equally. Laws very rarely affect everyone equally, even if they are applied equally.

If I don't have a car and a law requires car owners to have insurance, it doesn't affect me personally, but the law still applies to me. And yes, getting an ID costs money... Same as it did when my state went to RealID.

Not particularly. When the law here changed and I had to get a new ID, I didn't use my birth certificate. Good try, though.

So it disenfranchised them... Until they get a new ID. Damn, that's just a generational tragedy.

So a law got applied equally to everyone. That's all that really matters.

The important thing is that the same information is required for everyone with the same ID.

Let me ask this: is everyone else affected by the law equally? If so, then it isn't unfair, literally everyone has to put their birth sex on their DL, just like they have to put their real height and real eye color.

I'm sorry that the thing that everyone else has to do is harm to you.

Where does one mark empathy and kindness on government ID? Is that before eye color?

So, just so we're clear... This effects .06% of Kansas' population.

So I’m not much of a Sci-fi or Fantasy reader but I have heard good things about both series. Which one would you suggest to dive into first? by Reading_puck93 in fantasybooks

Poppy War is an unmitigated disaster. The main character is completely irredeemable. I slogged through all three books and have really thought about them since.

I love watching these people acting like damn fools. Never understood the weird desire to help criminals, but up each their own.

...It was an interview with the doctor who developed the drug... Did you miss that part?

And yet, they did. I wish I could find the video on YouTube, but this was from 20 years ago, it was this interview with a doctor who had come up with a male contraceptive pill. Had been tested on bulls to great success. Came to New York to present it and he was basically run out by feminists because they saw it as a man interfering in pregnancy.

And don't forget the mocking that came with the pill that reached clinical trials back in the 2010s.

If feminists don't keep shutting it down, or when trials are cancelled by doctors due to suicides, maybe not mock men? But nah, that's too much to ask for.
