The firings stem from out-of-context chat logs leaked by far-right commentator Chris Rufo on Monday. Sources tell Erin in the Morning that the chat functioned as an ERG-adjacent LGBTQ+ safe space, where participants discussed topics like gender-affirming surgery, hormone therapy, workplace LGBTQ+ policies, and broader queer issues. Rufo, however, framed these conversations as evidence of misconduct, claiming that “NSA, CIA, and DIA employees discuss genital castration” and alleging discussions of “fetishes, kink, and sex.” To Rufo and his audience, merely talking about being transgender and the realities of transition is enough to be labeled “fetish” content.

A trans girl said that after bottom surgery, peeing is easier and makes her happy.

Jesse Waters used that as the example of pornographic fetish material in the fox news clip linked in the quote above.

Yeah they're trying to label trans existence as inherently sexual so that they can call us pedos for existing near children

Have they considered that we're not the ones saying "sex" and "children" in the same sentence every 5 seconds? If I was willing to lie like them, that'd be more than enough evidence for accusations against them.

So freaking cool again from the transobsessed republicans.

Anyone who listens to shit birds like Rufo or O'Keefe is either dumber than a box of rocks or is just looking for excuses to be a shit bird themselves. Both have a long history of lying and manipulating or fabricating evidence.

I love it when people reference them IRL seriously, because I laugh straight to their faces and tell them they got tricked by conmen. Makes them so upset when you literally laugh off their evidence, especially when you can pull example after example of literally everything they claim being false or manipulated.
