Speaker 1 (00:00):
There's a Pride Month, and then there's like a bunch
of Pride days, and then there's Transgender Awareness Week, and
I mean there's a whole bunch of different ones, and
then there's this one that we're unaware of that's existing
since two thousand and nine. Joe Biden just didn't declare
it like last week, as it was portrayed on Twitter
in various places. But so this year it coincided with Easter,
(00:25):
and it getting double billing with Easter made a lot
of people, more traditional people unhappy. It's so nutty that
it even occurred. How many different LBGBTQ plus days do
we need on the calendar that our federal government recognizes.
I mean, come on, now, it's increasingly a joke, honestly.
(00:48):
It's although speaking of what increasingly the Biden administration, the
Biden campaign is so desperate for the young vote, because
the kids, the college, it's the recent crads. A doddering
eighty year old who backs Israel is of no interest
to them whatsoever. So they are increasingly desperate to court
(01:10):
that vote, to pander to it however they can. So
you're gonna see increasingly ridiculous gestures, right, So, this is
and I can't even keep it straight in my head.
Transvisibility Day or whatever it.
Speaker 2 (01:21):
Is, Happy trans Day of Visibility, when there was actually
talk about moving the day because it landed on Easter.
Speaker 1 (01:28):
So that's not good for your Transvisibility day, right, because
the stuff you want to do, I don't know, pub
crawls or marches or parades or whatever, they're going to
be overtaken by Easter. So you don't want that either.
What do you guys want to do.
Speaker 3 (01:42):
A pub call, crawl or a parade. I don't know.
I haven't thought about it.
Speaker 1 (01:47):
They actually said, or some people from the organization actually said,
there are too many days in the calendar. There aren't
enough free weekends, weeks whatever to move this. So even
they had to admit, we have so many of these
that we can't fit in somewhere else.
Speaker 3 (02:02):
Wow. Wow.
Speaker 1 (02:03):
So it landed right on Easter in the President with
two speeches and two tweets, making it seem like they
were equal things, which is weird.
Speaker 3 (02:12):
Yeah, yeah, just putting out the tweets more or less
back to back, Happy trans Day of Visibility and Happy
Easter and you know whatever other weird holidays it is. Yeah, yeah,
pretty objectionable. I thought this was amusing. This is uh
bred Bear and Human special report last night discussing the
(02:33):
controversy fifty three Michael. Meantime, you have the fallout over
the Transvestite Recognition Day so called on Easter. What do
you make transgender rather transgender? I'm sorry, Yeah, slip of
the tong the official transword Transylvania Transgender Visibility Day.
Speaker 1 (02:55):
A couple of old CIS white males trying to uh uh,
we've recognize what's going on in the modern world.
Speaker 3 (03:04):
Got it wrong, but it made me feel unsafe that
silence is violence or something or bread bear, transfist awareness,
no transsexual or transgender.
Speaker 1 (03:15):
I don't know. I don't know what the hell it is. Yeah,
a slip of the tongue.
Speaker 3 (03:23):
Oh boy ah. So at risk of making this at
least slightly serious, because I'm beginning to take this stuff
less and less seriously. Accept the indoctrination of children, and
it's it's absolutely worth, you know, observing that the reason
they're going so nuts to pay tribute pay omar to
(03:43):
this crap is because they've so thoroughly indoctrinated the young
people into thinking it's the most important thing on earth
and isn't just a bunch of confused adolescents who are
frightened to puberty any way. This is the Secretary of
Education who was chose and to unleash the official Biden
Administration greetings for that holiest of days, a trans Day
(04:07):
of Visibility at the.
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Department of Education. We know that all students do their
best when they're seen and they're supported. To the many
transgender students across the country listening on this trans Day
of Visibility, we and the Biden Harris Administration want you
to know that we see you, we support you, and
we celebrate you.
Speaker 4 (04:27):
We also know it's not an easy time to be
You walking into a classroom should be an act of hope,
not an act of bravery. That every day you choose
to show up as your true self, you make this
world a more brave, more honest, and more free place.
In your gift for seeing things as they could be,
I see the promise of America today. We at the
(04:48):
Department of Education want you to know that your school,
your community, and your country.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Are better because you're a part of it. You don't
just belong here, We need you here from all of
us here at the Department of Education and happy trans
Day of Visibility.
Speaker 3 (05:03):
That is such a great exhibit in the whole Maoist
program of They had what they called black identities, and
then I think it's red identities. You were down with
the revolution and the kids were so desirous of being
one of the good identities they could easily be manipulated
into becoming little revolutionaries and ratting out their parents and
beating them to death on the streets. Listen to how
(05:25):
he praised and valued the trans kids. Your schools are
better because of you. We love you, we celebrate you.
Now you straight white kids, you cist gender types with
your hatred and your systemic violencer. So obvious what they're doing.
Speaker 1 (05:47):
So I was reading the entire proclamation from the President
about Transgender Day of Visibility. It's quite long and way
more than it seems like it needs to be. But
there's probably one of these every other day about something
that I don't ever hear about the fact that this
(06:08):
one landed on Easter got a lot more attention. So
you've got the list of all the different special days, weeks, months, Yes, yes,
I do, some more observed than others. There's a gender
pride Day.
Speaker 3 (06:21):
Which is nineteenth of May, the a Romantic Spectrum Awareness Week,
which is the first full week following Valentine's Day. There's
a Romantic Visibility Day, International Asexuality Day, ACE Week, Bisexual
Awareness Week, Celebrate Bisexuality Day, Gender Fluid Visibility Week, Drag Day,
(06:44):
International Day against Homophobia, Transphobia and Biphobia, International Day of Pink,

Visibility Day, which is totally different than Lesbian Day, National
Coming Out Day, non Binary Awareness Week, non Binary People's Day,

pan Sexual and pan Romantic Awareness Day, Pronouns Day, trans
Awareness Day, Trans Awareness Month, trans Awareness Week, Transgender Day
of Remembrance, trans Day of Visibility, Transparent Day, and just
to sum it all up, Zero Discrimination Day. And there
are a few other like LGBT History Month, were it
(07:32):
Purple Day depending on what country you happen to be in,
et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.
Speaker 1 (07:38):
In addition to the entire Pride Month, which kind of
encompasses all kinds of different things.
Speaker 3 (07:43):
Uh yeah, absolutely, yeah, did I not have that one?
That's funny, they would skip that one. Oh, those are
just international. Oh, there's the US list, Great Scott Day
of Silence, Harvey Milk Day, Saffic Visibility Day, lgb TEA
History Month, LGBT Pride Month, Pulse Night of Remembrance, Spirit Day,
(08:07):
Stonewall Riots Anniversary, Transgender History Month.
Speaker 1 (08:11):
Good lord right. I do feel like it's uh, they they,
they've gone a little too far to where people have
caught onto the fact what they didn't. We just didn't.
I just go to the school and paint little rainbow
flags on my cheeks and everything like that, like last week.
I can't do this every week. I feel like that
people have caught onto that. I think the whole thing
(08:32):
is jumped.
