What his shirt said is not harassment or bullying in any way. Did his shirt in any way force a change on anyone? Did his shirt target anyone? No it didn’t. The people who got “offended” forced change on that boy, and you are ok with that?

That’s like calling the police because some girl wore a “girl power” shirt and someone got offended because it was bullying boys. Or a shirt that says “blondes are the most fun!” That could offend people with other color hair.

It’s fucking ridiculous.

Seran doesn't actually know what he's talking about. He literally just mindlessly repeats what the narrative tells him to think and say, and his code never deviates from that.

It's what being an NPC is all about.

If his shirt targeted a group like “hey you trans retards, there are only two genders!” I would agree that his shit was offensive and targeting a group of specific people, but his shirt stated a simple biological fact, nothing more and nothing less.

This entire trans fucking movement is fucking stupid as fuck. They get offended about every god damn thing.

Can someone help me? What exactly does this trans movement want? Last I checked they have the same rights, privileges and everything else as every other citizen in this country. What exactly are they fighting for?

Sure it is, you're equipping your child with clothing that tramples over the rights of others to comfortably exist and go to school, your freedom of speech doesn't extend to using your child as a billboard. The Massachusetts law defines that shirt as inappropriate, the school's policy defines that shirt as inappropriate. Again, your rights don't extend to taking away the rights of other people, that concept should be damned easy to other.

The right to exist without harassment and bullying doesn't seem like a big ask to you, does it?

What rights? Be specific.

And how do you know the dude's parents put him up to it? You do realize that people can have thoughts of their own right? Wait, nevermind, that's a concept you're not equipped to understand because you yourself are incapable of independent thought.

But anyway, what rights are being "taken away" over someone wearing a shirt that says "There are only 2 genders?"

Which specific rights are being taken away by a shirt?

How many genders are there?

So weird how you keep going out of your way to dodge this question.

Too bad the current "movement" wants special privilege's, treatment, entitlements and to force others to conform to their beliefs and behaviors. You have no right to not be offended.

The fundamental difference between us is you prioritize group / collective rights over individual rights, and are happy to give power to bureaucrats to make ethical decisions for the citizens. I believe individual rights should take priority over collectivism and that both bureaucrats & elected offi need strict oversight so they do not trample all over individual liberties.
