We recently did a post on a proposed bill in Florida that would put limits on “gender-affirming care” for minors. The trans community and its allies showed up at a hearing to affirm that if passed, people would die, and it would essentially be committing genocide. We’re well past being manipulated by arguments that minors will die if they don’t get life-saving double mastectomies.
Someone who’s taken a keen interest in minors and the age of consent is California State Sen. Scott Wiener, who today presented evidence that the far-right is trying to incite violence against him or perhaps the whole LGBTQ community.
Because more and more states are banning books and drag queens (no, they aren’t), Wiener decided to celebrate both at the San Francisco Public Library’s “Night of Ideas.” He posted a photo of himself holding up the book “Gender Pioneers.”
Well, the far-right decided to turn that photo into a couple of pretty funny memes, replacing the book titles with “How to Legally Kidnap Children” and “Don’t Tell Mom or Dad.”
Today in the far right’s obsession with me: A photo of me holding an LGBTQ book was doctored by the anti-LGBTQ hate group Gays Against Groomers, a group with ties to the Proud Boys.
A hateful attempt to incite violence against me & the whole LGBTQ community? Or just a crush? 😍 pic.twitter.com/mNT0eFXusW

The top photo gets cut off, so here it is:
Here’s the fact check by the Associated Press calling out these fraudulent & defamatory posts (they’re still up).
And surprise! These posts are absolutely designed to incite violence against me & other LGBTQ people. https://t.co/2QmCjIyHkM

Scott it’s just a meme 😂 It’s also completely factual and what your bill does. And ALSO, we aren’t anti-ourselves. Just pedophiles trying to hide behind our community. People who oppose our organization say a lot more about themselves than us 🧐

We love how the fact check of our MEME (lol) confirms that SB 107 in fact does allow the state of California to legally kidnap children. Thank you for sharing this, @Scott_Wiener! https://t.co/1UygpRyWf3 pic.twitter.com/kwu5qgnlRt

The AP’s fact-check reads, “Among other allowances, it authorizes courts to ‘take temporary jurisdiction’ of a child if they have ‘been unable to obtain gender-affirming health care’.”
Gov. Gavin Newsom signed the bill, written by Wiener, into law last September:

This is the same guy who pushed to literally legalize infecting others with HIV in California. He is a sick bastard. https://t.co/rEdInNP3sg

Everyone should just ask Scott in every tweet if he condemns pedophilia until we get an answer.

A little too close to the mark?
Guess what Scott, it's not defamation when it's the truth. 😘

Memes aren’t violence, Scott. Chopping the healthy breasts off of young confused girls is though.

Obviously a joke and obviously many gays find you to be an extremist. I know a number of my gay friends do.

Thanks, if you hadn't published this I wouldn't have seen it. But I'm glad I did.

It's a meme. That is surprisingly accurate. You're disgusting.

Epic self-own, thank you for sharing, groomer.

This is the moment when Scott Wiener learned what a meme was. Welcome to 2009, boomer.
— TolstoyHomeboy 🦔✝️🚲🍺 (@TolstoyHomeboy) March 16, 2023
All he has to do is cry “far-right” and that the memes are meant to incite violence against him to earn his victim card. No, they’re meant to ridicule you and expose you and your legislative record.
