  1. As unfortunately expected, the conservative sect is losing their minds and saying that Biden cancelled Easter or whatever. Forgetting that Easter itself falls on a different day every year.

  2. trans day of visibility was named march 31st in 2009.

    repubs are running with this for their identity politic shtick.

    but let’s remember that easter, like all pagan holidays is dictated by the moon, last year easter was april 9th, next year easter will fall on april 20th. and fittingly in 2029 we’ll finally have ‘true easter’ and it’ll fall on april 1st.

  3. Easter falls on the first Sunday after the full moon that follows the spring equinox. Cults prefer fiction over fact.

  5. I don’t want to be visible I want to be left the fuck alone like I was before all this hate became enabled. Either do something concrete like give protection and the same rights as everyone else or gtfo tbh. Can’t even be myself anymore.

  6. >“Today, we send a message to all transgender Americans: You are loved. You are heard. You are understood. You belong. You are America, and my entire Administration and I have your back,” Biden said.

    Hell ya. That’s my president

  7. Joe should invite a bunch of trans kids to the White House for a special lunch. It would send a strong message.

  8. Biden’s got our back, folks. Forget the Easter panic, it’s just another lunar event

  10. Doing this on an election year when Easter is 3/31 is an unforced error. No one thought this was a bad idea?

  11. Hundreds of accounts saying the same thing on twitland. Just interchanging 31st and TransDayOfVisibility.

  12. This means a lot to me. President Biden has shown that he has love and respect for people that republicans choose to demonize. I can’t think of a better Easter message.

  14. Love this by Biden, pander to your established voter base at the expense of moderate voters! Trump 2024!

  15. This is wonderful to see. True leadership and true care for our fellow Americans.

  16. Can someone inform me on what rights trans people are fighting for? Is there something trans people are not allowed to do?

  17. We should just have a international “FUCK YOU!” day. That way we can all be pissed off together, as it was in the great old times.

  18. Finally a good reason for Easter to be associated with eggs.

  19. Cool, now do something more than say you have our backs. Something proactive that isn’t just suing when republicans take our rights away.

    Edit: the reason just suing when republicans take our rights away is bad is that you are seeing how close to genocide the republicans can get before you take any action. It also allows those laws to be in effect for a while before a judge can rule on it. And are we really willing to bet the Supreme Court won’t rule that genociding the t slurs isn’t a bad thing?

  20. Edit: To clarify I mean that an attack on any person’s rights should be held as an attack on all of them.

    At this point it should just be bundled as Conservative attacks on *all* rights. They are coming for all of us, heck they are coming for most of their own as well.

    I’m a straight white male with no illusions that we aren’t all in their crosshairs. And like most of us I have LGBTQ+ friends and family who are already under attack.

  21. I had to listen to my Adolf Shitler loving in-laws talk crap about this today, yet I’m not allowed to talk politics around them because I might offend them. FUCK THEIR FEELINGS.

    I’m a straight male and I don’t really get the whole trans thing, but fuck if it’s my business to stand in someone way of doing what makes them happy. Imagine what the world would be like if people just minded their fucking business.

  22. Its just a coincidence that march 31st is Easter, biden is not trying to persecute Christians omg. Also technically God is nonbinary.

  23. He could’ve picked any day and he picks Easter Sunday.

    It actually does a bigger disservice to the issue than to Easter because no one is going to care about it but if he had waited until next Sunday he could’ve gotten more attention on it.

    I still think he’s getting replaced at the convention.

  24. The mind of liberals is fascinating. Rightly defending trans people from attack only to go ahead and fund an apartheid state engaged in ethnic cleansing. I’m sure here are no trans Palestinians /s

  25. Dudes had 4 years to do this and picked his last year when march 31 is Easter Sunday, and did it 2 days before. If he did this to any other religion he’d get crucified. Imagine if he declared January 15th to be national stand up to Jewish hate day. Tone def.

  26. Best president in the history of the United States.

    Biden 2024.

  27. I will take his pity, but I’d still spit in his fucking face.

  29. Transgender Day of Visibility belongs on April 1st with April Fools.

  30. Can’t wait to steal Easter again next year… Oh wait, it won’t happen again until 2086. Almost like it’s a non issue 

  31. Very cool. Let people live and do things on their bodies as long as they’re not being weird to others or hurting them. Ffs conservative/Republican/MAGA ass hats will do anything to bring them down to their level and be insufferable to live with

  33. Trumps statement today was so much more presidential. Anyone can argue that easter falls on a different day each year, but you are blatantly neglecting what an overt jab this is to Christians.
