Either I have brain rot or have become really jaded to the republican anti-trans agenda (probably both). I fell for the title for about a second.

Onion had been on fire recently.

[–] clutchmattic@beehaw.org 3 points 2 years ago

It is so perplexingly credible

Ron looks sad. He must have an innie.

[–] rtxn@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago

If there is a god, it must be a trickster to have given me the ability to read and then allow me to read your comment.

Looks like Ron failed the genital test

[–] blackluster117@possumpat.io 2 points 2 years ago

I hate penis inspection day.

I love The Onion.

This would be a strong entry for a "Onion or not?" drinking game

[–] keepcarrot@hexbear.net 18 points 2 years ago

A trans man would have an unfair biological advantage in politics

I had to squint hard to see if this was nottheonion

[–] hamster@kbin.social 29 points 2 years ago (3 children)

It's obviously the onion. Republicans only care about your genitals, not theirs.

Republican Presidential Debate Moderators Undergo Mandatory Genital Checks Ahead Of First Debate

[–] Ddhuud@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

They care about their own genitals too. All wankers do.

[–] imgonnatrythis@lemm.ee 1 points 2 years ago

I heard they don't even wash theirs.

[–] tsonfeir@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago

You’d have to squint hard to see his dick.

[–] RedQuestionAsker2@hexbear.net 13 points 2 years ago

Pretending this would phase them as if these freaks wouldn't love to whip their dicks out for hog fanfare

[–] barrbaric@hexbear.net 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

Ah, but who checks the genitals of the genital checkers? How do we know that they're not all just in on it?!

[–] AWildMimicAppears@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

thats what circlejerks are for

[–] gentleman@kbin.social 10 points 2 years ago (1 children)

@seahorse That is fucking hilarious. Hope the boy’s turtle doesn’t go back into its shell

[–] theodewere@kbin.social 9 points 2 years ago (1 children)

just a little package check on the way in, nothing to worry about

[–] InevitableWaffles@midwest.social 3 points 2 years ago (2 children)

Just one grope, as a treat.

[–] cjthomp@lemmy.world 1 points 2 years ago

And when you're famous, they'll let you!

[–] theodewere@kbin.social 1 points 2 years ago

grope the grapes.. that's what they say in Italy.. i made that up..

[–] The_Worst@feddit.nl 9 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

Am I reading the title right?

Edit: got woooshed but I wouldn't be surprised if it were true. 😅🤣

[–] UlyssesT@hexbear.net 7 points 2 years ago

I assumed this was a bit, but I really can't deny how possible it'd be as a performative stunt for the leading GOP nazis to do something like that in the near future as a "see? The fundamentalist police state isn't that bad!"

I think the only reason it hasn't happened yet is that the GOP nazi leaders are too fragile to even go through a single performative gesture that might make them uncomfortable, even for a political end. Yet.
