A lot has been said today by the right about Biden proclaiming Transgender Awareness Day on March 31. Yes, the day has always been observed on the last day of March, which happens this year also to be Easter, so this is a whole lot of manufactured anger. But make no mistake. The right assumes that there is something *wrong* with recognizing the date at all, never mind when it falls. To them I say, your undisguised hate and intolerance is a great example of why we need days like this in the first place. You want the trans community to simply disappear, to be invisible like before, just like you wanted the gay community to before. Well, sorry, that’s not going to happen. Get over it. Now I’m going to go paint some gender non-binary eggs.
If it’s any consolation, national transgender recognition day won’t happen on Easter again until 2040. In the last 100 years, Easter has fallen on March 31 seven times: 1924, 1935, 1946, 1957, 1985, 1996, and 2002. National day of transgender recognition officially started in 2009. Go ahead and let them have their celebration, just remember what this day means to True Christians.
@GeorgeTakei It’s the government mocking Christians George.
@GeorgeTakei It’s been celebrated unofficially since 2009 and, yes, always on the 31st. He proclaimed it this year knowing it falls on Easter. I don’t care who is trans or gay or bi etc etc etc, but, I’m not celebrating it. Stop being such a narcissist.
@GeorgeTakei When a lib says , “make no mistake,” then a real doozy is about to spill out all over the place. Put your boots on or leave the room at that point.
@GeorgeTakei Let the pretty transgender lady pee anywhere the transgender lady wants to pee. It's the best thing to do, especially if the transgender lady is armed.
@GeorgeTakei I’ve never heard march 31 proclaimed transgender day by the president of the United States but I don’t count Biden as the president of anything. I was born in the sixties and I’ve never even heard of it so go gaslight yourself and leave trans people out of Easter Sunday
@GeorgeTakei Did it ever occur to you that maybe Christians just want one or two days a year of their own? Why does everything have to be commandeered by this administration?
@GeorgeTakei You forgot to compare something to the Japanese concentration camps.
@GeorgeTakei Non-binary eggs… Eggs are gametes, an expression of binary sex. 🙄
@GeorgeTakei My cat prevents me from celebrating
