The Face of Gun Fetishism: The Shellshocked Child
from The Ron Show · host Ron Roberts
Wait, so now right wing pundits want to disarm trans people - meaning the Second Amendment they fawn over doesn't apply to trans people? Isn't this LITERALLY "second class citizenship?" But does this surprise anyone, anymore? Republicans are like bigotry locusts, moving from one marginalized minority to the next when the clock expires on their previous target. Picking just on gay people doesn't poll well anymore, so they've moved on to just the trans community. The haunting image of a (literally) shellshocked Nashville child - inconsolable while on a school bus - is the new face of America's youth. Is this the gun movement's "napalm girl?" Ari Brennan Media Matters for America's LGBTQ+ beat writer, also a trans woman, is my guest today, to talk on the anti-trans legislation, steeped in ignorance, along with the anti-trans rhetoric right wing media is blurting out after the Nashville school shooting. Lastly, I'm not big on social media influencers, but Nicole Benham struck a nerve when it comes to the discord in the American food, health, wellness & pharmaceutical industries.
