Governor Kathy Hochul has issued a proclamation declaring March 31st as Transgender Day of Visibility.

On Sunday, dozens of state landmarks will be lit blue, pink, and white to acknowledge New York's trans community.

“Today we celebrate Transgender Day of Visibility by acknowledging the contributions that members of the transgender community have made in New York State and across the country,” Governor Hochul said. “I am proud of the strength transgender New Yorkers display every day and want to make one thing clear: you are always welcome in New York. You are loved.”

It would appear to be one of the minor laws of nature that those who keep sticking it “in your face” will sooner or later get something stuck in their face...with a lot more force.

In case anyone here ends up as a Democrat governor, here’s a woke title generator. You can use it as a starting point when making your proclamations.

Here’s two examples from the site:

“When heterosexuals callously shame trans people while trying to be allies to indigenous people… “

“ Do cis women exploit black people when laughing?”

If only.

Easter Sunday. Biden is pulling the same crap at the national level. This along with the Diller shooting are making my blood boil today about Judas Pence’s de facto Biden endorsement. The Dems have put this country on a disastrous course, yet Pence, due to his own ego and spitefulness, prefers the Dems’ rot to a 2nd Trump term. What a petty feckless bastard

While I sympathize with the outrage, this is fake news.

March 31 was chosen as the "International Transgender Day of Visibility" back in 2014. Easter, based on a lunar calendar, varies from year to year.

This year, Easter falls on March 31. Easter won't fall on March 31 again until the year 2086, 62 years from now.

This is one of those opportunistic coincidences that happens during highly controversial and highly competitive elections where the slightest appearance of insensitivity can be "pounced" on by the other side.

I'm not saying don't do it anyway, I'm just saying know what you're doing.

How visible was “International Transgender Day of Visibility“ last year?

Blasphemy of blasphemies on this Holy Day! But rest assured, God is not mocked. Woe unto you, Hochul, and New York City along with you!

“22 Your children who follow you in later generations and foreigners who come from distant lands will see the calamities that have fallen on the land and the diseases with which the Lord has afflicted it. 23 The whole land will be a burning waste of salt and sulfur—nothing planted, nothing sprouting, no vegetation growing on it. It will be like the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah, Admah and Zeboyim, which the Lord overthrew in fierce anger. 24 All the nations will ask: “Why has the Lord done this to this land? Why this fierce, burning anger?”

25 And the answer will be: “It is because this people abandoned the covenant of the Lord, the God of their ancestors, the covenant he made with them when he brought them out of Egypt. 26 They went off and worshiped other gods and bowed down to them, gods they did not know, gods he had not given them. 27 Therefore the Lord’s anger burned against this land, so that he brought on it all the curses written in this book. 28 In furious anger and in great wrath the Lord uprooted them from their land and thrust them into another land, as it is now.”

- Deuteronomy 29:22-28

If you think just because millennia have passed that God has changed and won’t deal with NYC as He did ancient Israel in those days with cities like Sodom and Gomorrah, you are sorely mistaken. I call upon the whole of New York City to repent while there is yet time. Behold, judgment stands at the door, and it will be swift, righteous, and complete.

My question as well. I’d never heard of it prior to its (apparently) falling on perhaps the most Holy of Christian Holidays... Has anyone found a statement by Biden on any of the other ‘Days of Visibilty’?

Irrelevant to my point.

Just a little bit of research into the timing of this was all that was needed to put the outrage into perspective.
