    Governments making lists of minorities is never a good thing to see.

    If the solution to your panic is “people wear pants and do the same thing they’ve been doing for hundreds of years in the public restroom” then your problem is not very serious.

    If their PornHub searches are any indication, they’re doing a lot of “tracking” in their off time too.

    Going after the most defenseless, unorganized, and politically unpowerful group makes them look incredibly weak. A bunch of garbage politicians who should all serve time for this conspiracy.
