minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink116•1 year agoDouble negative confused me for a second and I was sad. Opposes the ban! Want gender affirming care available. Excellent.
minus-squareBarqsHasBitelinkfedilink18•1 year agoOh I missed that entirely. Sloppy writing, it should be arranged “opposes bans on gender affirming care”.
minus-squaretwelve20two linkfedilink1•1 year agoGotta get them clicks tho. Maybe we’re at the beginning of a transition from, “shocking and attention-grabbing headlines,” to, “attention-grabbing but also poorly written in a way that it’ll agitate an even wider wash of readers”
