It’s very rare to my knowledge. I think it’s just a way for Republicans and Democrats to distract from real issues.
How are the Democrats distracting from real issues? It is certainly real to the people who were allowed to be open about being trans and now are being kicked out.
Real was an inappropriate word, obviously it’s very real to the people it affects. I meant that it distracts from the wars and the NSA spying that are both completely supported by Democrats and Republicans. Things like the indiscriminate drone strikes that kill mostly civilians, the compiling of our emails, the assault on whistleblowers, and the nonstop military conflicts in the Middle East are supported wholeheartedly by both parties. The Bush, Obama, and Trump administrations are all equally guilty in terms of that stuff.
