One transgender woman, Sheena, left Florida to move to Minnesota. Florida has recently passed extremely harsh legislation targeting the transgender community, and Sheena cited this legislation in her decision to move with her partner, stating that she “had to leave Florida within one month [of the transgender medical ban on adults] to avoid having my care halted.”
It’s interesting how “minor” conditions can have huge effects on conflicts. Apparently the South thought they could leverage their cotton (“cotton is king”) and use it to convince England/Europe to back them, but not only did Confederate diplomacy suck but other countries did the math and decided they didn’t need Southern cotton bad enough to piss off the Union.
It seems these guys and their spiritual descendents have a long proud history of overestimating their importance and worth while antagonizing everyone else and behaving like idiots.
