My dude you are falling for blatant propaganda

Joe Biden did not “replace” nor “cancel” Easter to make room for Trans Day of Visibility. TDoV falls on March 31st every year (and has for over 15 years) and happens to coincide with Easter this year. He celebrated both with posts on Twitter, even posting about Easter first.

Furthermore, the waffle about “banning religious imagery from White House Easter Celebrations” is blatantly false. This policy has been in effect for decades; Joe Biden had no part in it. If anything, this policy is religious freedom in action. By openly utilizing Christian imagery, the government would be promoting Christianity, and thus would violate the First Amendment’s freedom of religion, which prevents the government from directly supporting a specific religion.

I do not like Joe Biden. He is a war criminal, an ineffective leader, and is too old and senile to be in office, but he did nothing remotely wrong here and you are getting mad over nothing. These holidays can—and should—coexist. Trans people deserve to have their voices heard and to live as they want without fear of violence or persecution. Trans Day of Visibility does not at all take away from or diminish Easter. Acknowledgement that Trans people exist is not at all a violation of religious liberty.

As a fellow Christian, get real and do better.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility to all the Trans folks out there. You are seen and loved by God, however you live.

Happy Easter, he is risen.

Exactly. Christians will never have to face violence persecution just for being who we are or believing what we want to believe, unlike Trans people or those who adhere to other religions. Christofascism is becoming more and more prevalent and is threatening the liberties and lives of other marginalized groups far more than the majority of Christians want to admit. If any singular group is doing the oppressing, it is Christians. That is sickening to me.
