From the story, I have no idea what the two were discussing. Is it just me, or is there something left out?

N. Carolina and Alabama are tied for stupidest legislators (and citizens) on the planet. HOW did they get that way: Reverse Evolution?

The obvious answer is “because Texas is getting soft”.

As the article explains, he and another wingnut lobbyist were discussing the anti-trans “Bathroom Bill” that would have allowed people to use public restrooms that matched their gender expression. He thought he was being like Oscar Schindler because not having to pee next to a transgender person is like surviving Auschwitz. Or something.

The minds of these people … so depraved. They really are stuck on controlling what others do with their bodies and body parts (or die trying).

You may have hit on something because the one thing everyone notices is that those who do not believe in evolution and are opposed to teaching evolution are always the least evolved.

Wait, what?

@anon84323658 It’s no coincidence that Thomas Hofeller was from NC. He quite expertly gerrymandered the state to carve progressive districts up and make them minority voters. That’s how it works and NC is a textbook example.

Homosexuals were considered to be the lowest of the low in the concentration camp hierarchy…Gay men suffered unusually cruel treatment in the concentration camps. They had their testicles boiled off by water…

SS soldiers also were known to use gay men for target practice, aiming their weapons at the pink triangles their human targets were forced to wear…

Dachau and Buchenwald were the principal centers of human experimentation on homosexuals by Nazi doctors, who sought to find a “medical cure” for homosexuality…

The Third Reich forced Jewish women and lesbians to perform sex acts with men at German camp brothels…Homosexuals were ordered to perform these acts once a week as conversion therapy. The therapy also included humiliation through beatings…

Sen. Bishop – and most of the GOP base – would feel quite at home in Shoah-era Germany.

" NC GOP Candidate Likened Repealing LGBTQ Protections To Rescuing Jews During WWII"

No, you idiot, it’s exactly the opposite. It’s like passing the NAZI law that removed all criminal and civil protections from Jews in Germany.

These clowns are incapable of being honest about history. The history is that the NAZIs targeted “homosexuals”, Roma and disabled persons with the same enthusiasm that they targeted Jews.

I wonder if Bishop is going to melt down the gold pin he wears that indicates he belongs to the Nazi party and use that melted gold to rescue some LGBTQ people from further persecution.

Then there were Dr. Mengele’s experiments involving twins. He wanted to find out if he injected poison into one, does the other become infected.
