This Blog Should Not Exist, Part 3.15: We. Have. Fucking. Lost. It.

Three stories, only one having to do with football.  The confluence of all this is actually beginning to get readers of the blog (and I'm not talking the Ocean City Guys and Nobodys of the world) questioning whether I should even continue this...

And after you see the stupidity, you'll see why:

First, (hat-tip to anonymous friend, Erin Reed, and Alejandra Caraballo):

Unsurprisingly, the 6th Circuit ruled - again - that trans bans are constitutional by using the same rationale used in Dobbs to ban abortion - that trans care is not “deeply rooted in our nations history and traditions” and thus trans people don’t get equal protection. https://t.co/qdc6g3OjJA

The 6th circuit just held that being trans is not an immutable characteristic. That opens the door to all kinds of formal discrimination and the ability for states to mandate conversion therapy. pic.twitter.com/UKDhhtvI9L

Dred Scott, chapter and verse.

We had a fucking Civil War to stop it, and it sounds like we're gonna need a second!!

Someone wants to die in one of these fascist states, and too much more of this shit and I'll oblige them!

That is, if my friends in the transgender community don't get me pissed off enough on their behalves that I collapse of a coronary myself first!!

Second:  I had read this story and thought it was just some fucking around by the kids:

Brooklyn High School in Ohio lost it's coach (and should lose it's program)...

Beachwood High School (a community 90% Jewish, a Cleveland-area Jewish group notes) was playing Brooklyn last Friday (only three days before Yom Kippur)when the Beachwood team nearly walked off the field in protest that the "audible call" which had been used by Beachwood, apparently, FOR YEARS, was...

... get ready for it...

"NAZI".

Third:  It's not hard to see why when Benjamin Netanyahu is spouting THIS goddamned nonsense!!!
