Priorities Don't Seem Spotty - Divisions by zero

Lemmy

There are probably more people with tetanus than there are trans college athletes. There’s literally only 10 of them. It is by definition a moral panic. The people crying about it are lying and evil.

I’d be shocked if there’s only 10 trans college athletes. My college fencing club had three I could name, 15 years ago. My current college has at least one.

Now, out trans women who competed in NCAA sports, certainly a smaller set of people.

Also, totes agree it’s ridiculous to care about (I don’t know how to call it) the “integrity” of college women’s sports more than something that is actually harming and killing kids.

Here’s something more shocking: While we’re all debating the pressing issue of [insert current debate], let’s not forget the far more pressing matters like the fact that burning brown coal kills 32.72 people per terawatt-hour of electricity. But hey, priorities, right?
