1. bravo hoaxers. this has got to be the stupidest waste of taxpayer money ever.

2. That’s a lot of work for the one person they hired

3. What’s the phone number

4. Ah, the “party of fiscal responsibility” using sound logic and reasoning to waste taxpayer dollars to foster hate and bigotry in schools and society at large:

   _“We didn’t see anything that looks credible,” Utah Auditor John Dougall said in a phone call, noting that the claims have been “pretty easy” to screen. “For example, if they have my name as a complainant, you know, I’m not complaining.””_

5. The ignorance of those who created this hotline can not be displayed any better than by their inability to foretell this outcome.

6. “Yes, I’d like to report a leprechaun fight.”

7. So you report it, then what? The police come? What is the point here other than bigotry.

8. does govt of utah really have nothing else to worry about

9. HALP! Every bathroom in my entire neighborhood is unisex!

10. One thing I don’t get? Why are the republicans only using the ‘grown men are gonna be going into your daughters locker room/bathroom!’

    Don’t they understand the concept of trans men?

    This also means that biological women who’ve gone through hormone therapy & whatever else and appearing as men will also be forced to use the women’s bathrooms – under these laws.

    So either way they are going to have to acknowledge trans people exist. And stop scapegoating trans women as men who are secretly trying to sneak into locker rooms to look at naked women. And more so stop using little girls as props – as if these right-wing Trump people care about the sanctity of little girls. Puh-leez.

11. Irresponsible governing requires irresponsible actions

12. Dear Mister Utah,

    How are you? I am fine. I am sorry to hear that you are being trolled. That is not nice. I hope this real report will make you feel better.

    My name is Billy. My mommy took me to the airport, and she needed to use the restroom. She told me to wait outside while she did that. While I was waiting, a big woman came up to me. She had a very deep voice when she said “Hey, little boy, want to see something exciting?”

    I like exciting things, so I told her “Yes.”

    She took me by the hand and pulled me into the women’s bathroom. Then she pulled up her dress and showed me her panties. Then she pulled her panties aside and showed me her vulva. I was very disappointed that she did not have a penis, because I am a fifty-seven-year-old gay man, and I thought for sure that the woman was Gary, the cross-dressing prostitute that Elmer (my “mommy”) and I had hired for our public romp. The woman was confused when she saw my disinterest, and it turned out that she was actually a different prostitute who had been hired by someone else entirely.

    That’s when one of the bathroom stalls opened, and out walked my long-lost twin brother. The whole misunderstanding turned into a reunion… but then I noticed my twin’s “MAGA” T-shirt, and I had to politely decline his invitation to “git sum beers ‘n do sum hunnin’ wibb Bebra.”

    The point here is that someone left a gargantuan turd in the urinal (which is why we had to move to the women’s restroom), and I would like to report that as a problem occurring in the bathroom. I was very scared, and I do not like feeling scared.

    My mommy said that I should report it, so I am.

    Thank you, Mister Utah!

    Sincerely,

    Billy

13. Omg filling out that form 3 drinks in was the best Friday fuck you ever! Thanks for sharing!

14. r/maliciouscompliance in its finest form!

15. I enjoyed calling Kay Ivey’s phone line for this nonsense a while back. Filled up the voice mail with novelty song poem recordings like “Blind Man’s Penis.” Would do again.

16. This is easy, simply close down every men’s restroom. Eventually they will learn to stay home.

17. Love it!

18. Good work team

19. Porta potty users are using transexual restrooms! Report them all!!!

20. Be sure to mention floodlit.org in your reports, the chronicle of Mormon abuse stories

21. Hmm the utah complaint website uses salesforce tech stack to support these forms.

22. The nutso part to me is that this site is very clearly registered and run by a third-party out of California.

    They embed the Utah “this is how you know it’s an official Utah site” banner…which explicitly says if there’s not a `utah.gov` in the URL, it’s not real.

    Which, obviously, there’s not.

    The whole thing screams “this is how you failed IT’s phishing test”.

    Such a fucking clownshow.

23. You mean this reporting form? https://ut-sao-special-prod.web.app/sex_basis_complaint2.html

24. theres a link to the reporting site in the article… be civic minded

25. All the reports of trans violations in schools are fake. We all know they have litter boxes to use in the classrooms.

26. That’s the only worthwhile use these snitch-lines have to society: to be so overrun with bullshit that they fucking collapse under it. Fuck the people who elect the trash that come up with this shit, and fuck their tax dollars that will be inevitably wasted on this fool’s errand.

27. Great to see this kind of reaction, but it needs to be sustained. 4000 fakes to start, but it needs to be 4000 at 6 months in.

28. Haha. Fuck you Utah.

29. Just curious whether there’s some guy in every men’s room in Utah searching over every shoulder hanging a wire at the urinal. Probably taking pictures as well.

    Can only imagine where the police woman is hiding out in the ladies’ room.

    Right Repubs?

30. Um. So depressed about democratic politicians being called out for there idiotic acts! Can we start a policy that checks this? Really checks there idiocy!

31. We’re losing to trumpism for ducks sake!

32. How would someone know what kind of genitalia someone else has in a public restroom unless they are peeping?
