Now is the legislature’s chance to pass legislation banning the performance of sex changes on children. Unfortunately, that is wishful thinking. Because even though the Republicans have been in charge of Texas for the last ten years or more, including throughout the course of the Save James saga, no legislation banning sex changes on children has been passed. Spineless Republicans make this crybaby excuse that "the government has no right to tell parents what to do". Except that the government in Texas is preventing the father from stopping irreversible damage being done to his son. Besides, if the government "has no right to tell parents what to do", then why do child services exist? Why are parents arrested if they don’t send their children to school?

I always hear about how Democrats are evil for pulling shit like this. Which is true. But Republicans are complicit in this. Whenever they get in, they never repeal laws that were passed by the Democrats, and they never pass laws putting a stop to the dangerous antics of shit-libs. Instead, Republicans do nothing but delay the will of the Democrats and complain that strategy does not work. Florida seems to be the only state where Republicans conserve anything - and even then their efforts are reactionary rather than proactive. And even in Florida, Republicans are cucked. Alimony reform bill gets vetoed by the governor, and the Republican legislature don’t even bother to override the veto.

I live in Ireland. We are incredibly cucked, with only a fraction of the population being switched on. But we used to be one of the most conservative countries in Europe. Until we began consuming American culture. Sure, we could have adopted gun rights, but instead we got transgenderism, political correctness, abortion and feminism. In fact, we have less gun rights now. We did at least get freer markets, though. If American culture is turning other countries liberal, and the Republicans are doing nothing about it, then what is the point of the Republicans even existing?

The TX legislature only sits for five months every other year, so January is their first regular legislative session since 2021. COVID, constitutional carry, Roe v Wade, and the border crisis were bigger TX priorities then. We will see what happens in the coming months.

Hopefully the legislature will pass a bill banning sex changes on minors this year. But I am not holding my breath.

Me as well on both counts.
