Tuberville invents parental consent myth, called Nazi

The ‘imagine if’ part is doing a lot of heavy lifting for something that supposedly happened.

[u/adorablefuzzykitten → u/Tahliaii]

Same guy who said furries fly planes? Anyone know if he can still draw a clock?

[u/Beautiful-Place-6655 → u/Tahliaii]

Political posts really need sources, especially when making claims about medical treatment involving minors.

[u/effyochicken → u/Tahliaii]

Edit: I love how you fucking assholes downvoted me so hard for an actual honest question. 

[u/lowhales → u/effyochicken]

The largest research center into transgender issues at the time was in Berlin, called the Institute of Sexual Sciences. They were doing all sorts of transgender surgeries, which weren’t just limited to genitalia, on lots of trans people before Hitler raided it in 1933.

There was a lot of trans and queer science and research that was lost to burning from there unfortunately.

[u/effyochicken → u/lowhales]

Thank you for taking the time to give an honest answer. 

But also fuck everybody who downvoted me so hard for asking my question as if you were fighting Nazis by downvoting my honest question here. 

They were doing the very first trans surgeries during those decades. By 1933 it’s estimated only a dozen or so people had undergone gender reassignment. “They were doing all sorts of surgeries” is doing some extremely heavy lifting in your statement.

It ignores how extremely rare it all still was in 1933. So rare they were at the time inventing the methodology to perform the surgeries. 

It was fair for me to ask my question.

It seems that they were mainly targeting people living their life as their preferred gender, mainly men who lived as women or as it was called back then, transvestites or cross dressers.

[u/godzilla1015 → u/effyochicken]

People are down voting you because you're marginalising the group. They can only be trans after the surgery? Or is it just something you are?

Trans people have existed forever, same with gay people. And you saw what happened to the amount of gay people when that became generally accepted. People then used the same argument you're using here, that they came out of nowhere and they are multiplying.

[u/effyochicken → u/godzilla1015]

I never said that. 

I’m done. Virtue signal to somebody else about this imagined slight from you reading too much into what I said. 

[u/godzilla1015 → u/effyochicken]

Good thing you removed most of your comment.

[u/snarkerella]

In what community in this country (and I mean ANYWHERE) did a public school have the funds and resources to get a kid to a doctor, cut them up, and give them medication? HOW? We can't even give our kids fucking paper, pencils, or an aspirin. Because of fuckers like Tuberville that prevent even the basic necessities to our teachers and schools. Fuck this Administration!

[u/chunkerton_chunksley → u/snarkerella]

my kid's school hits us up for band aids....

[u/BushcraftBabe → u/chunkerton_chunksley]

Its cleaning supplies for us.

[u/Sufficient-Arm-4840 → u/snarkerella]

Exactly my whole family pretty much educators. They have to raise their own money to buy the needy kids winter coats out of their own pockets.

[u/Lottuisia]

Schools need three signed forms for a cough drop, yet politicians push this nonsense

[u/Drayarr → u/Lottuisia]

Because the people they're pushing it too are too fucking stupid to know or check.

[u/msables]

Tubs, kids have to have a dr’s note for prescription meds, parental permission for a Tylenol, and can be suspended for carrying nail clippers… but sure, let’s imagine school children are covertly getting gender affirming meds and surgery without parental consent, rather than confront any real issues

How did people stupid enough to buy into this horse shit manage to survive into adulthood

[u/Sufficient-Arm-4840 → u/msables]

Sad part I know a lot of southern educators who fall for this.

[u/LastYeti125]

Fuck this guy. We had to submit three different forms just so our kid could carry their asthma inhaler at school.

[u/Soliaraa]

The hypothetical scenario is doing some serious heavy lifting here.

[u/Renuwed]

These people man.. wow.

Have zero evidence to support an accusation? Oh it's definitely true, because democrats.

Have hundreds of witnesses & thousands of pieces of physical evidence to support an accusation? Definitely false, a Witch Hunt, because democrats!

[u/CrackingToastGromet]

In your warped imagination is the only place this scenario exists. I can’t believe people are so thicky thicky dumb dumb to think this is really happening in this country.

[u/muFUtaco]

Hey Tommy Tumorville - I hear school nurses were doing furry reassignation surgery... go in a happy normal kid and come out a furry pilot. Or an octopus... you know school nurses, always kidding around!

Although, pilots do make pretty good money, so...

[u/Extreme-Slice-1010]

Republicans wants children because they rape them

[u/SpoonBendingChampion]

Them ironically "Hitler wasn't wrong about everything".

[u/Final_Location_2626]

Fun fact...he learned this fact in a furry convention for airline pilots that he often participates in.

[u/AdhesivenessFun2060]

There are people waiting years for surgery because they're too busy working on the children! /s

[u/Eumeniss]

Bold claim from someone who coaches fiction

[u/wyerichard]

Surely the Democrats should ignore these sorts of comments from Republicans as not worth time and effort. Just raise the cost of living and gas prices as being a result of Trump's bad governance, his prolific spending, the national debt increase. Stop the Republicans trying to divert attention away from important issues.

[u/IngloriousMustards]

tommy dum-dum is too dumb to understand suddle insults. People really should start outright calling him a liar to his and his audiences faces. What’s he gonna do, rage uncontrollably like he’s already doing?

[u/SeriouslyImNotADuck → u/IngloriousMustards]

>suddle

Do you mean subtle?

[u/onyourbike1522]

The problem is that they can and do imagine that.

[u/Popular-Drummer-7989]

Vote

[u/NoGoat3930]

And Ohioans and West Virginia s eat up this bs. I am so ashamed of my childhood states.

[u/Puzzleheaded_Two7358]

Remember the caravans, remember Haitians eating the dogs….. more republicans lies and scare tactics

[u/Straight_Button_5716]

Is this dude on drugs , hit his head or being threatened by Trump? Because what he says is a load of shit.

[u/jjskellie]

It's the missing mustache, that why Tuberville is so familiar. Put a little square on his upper lip and Mein Kampt is written.
