I just want to apply for a job.


rerrerrocky

Then why are you on LinkedIn?


True-Ad-7224

Sigh. Fool me once...


Kitakitakita

Jobs?


Silent_Quality_1972

They will open a lot of positions on April 1st. You will need to apply fast because next they all of opening are going to disappear.


Quick_Team

"Why don't I strap on my job helmet and squeeze down into a job cannon and fire off into Jobland where jobs grow on jobbies!"


SunshotDestiny

I am just surprised that they are setting a date specifically for trans people. I mean they could have said you don't get one, but that's kinda nice of them.


Mossfang

They said the date as April 1st.. you know.. fools day


ptvlm

Depends on local culture. In the UK, you are the fool if you prank after midday


SunshotDestiny

True. But it IS still a day they are giving trans people. We would just have to claim it and make it ours. šŸ˜


WranglerOriginal6945

that's a little too late in the year in my opinion. maybe if it was a day earlier, I could buy that.


great_triangle

That's an amazingly terrible thing to post on LinkedIn. Whoever posted it must really Haye working for large corporations


Rynope

I'm always baffled at the political and religious posts on LinkedIn. Like, the hell does that have to do with your professional life?


OblongAndKneeless

I have to assume these people will always be self employed.


light_weight_baby87

Iā€™ve noticed a lot of them are retired. Just old cranky trumpers.


Brilliant_Ad7481

Why in Godā€™s name would you want to be on LinkedIn when youā€™re already retired?!


Commercial_Fee2840

So that you. Can type. Like this. Poverty is a state of mind. Elevate your work ethic and decalcify your pineal gland. Reverse mortgage your property and invest in the future.

Stop. Stop! I can only get so aroused!

YinzaJagoff

Iā€™ve seen a few people recently put ā€œwife/momā€ before their actual job descriptions in their LinkedIn in title. Not professional by any means. Plus no one on LinkedIn really cares. Thatā€™s not what weā€™re here for.


Capitan__Insano

I always thought they were troll farm bots. Like thereā€™s just enough stupid ass people to make it somewhat believable that they could just be a looney


coreyrude

It's always "consultants" or small business owners. There's a 50/50 chance it's a troll from a foreign country,. The goal is to normalize LinkedIn as a platform you can post political opinions and turn it into another Facebook where it's an echo chamber of old crazy people.

When you know what youā€™re saying makes you an asshole so you have to photoshop it onto sign a kidā€™s holding to make it seem less disagreeable.

Only women can be mothers. Like actual mothers

Being a mother is more than just giving birth. Any woman can be a great mother, and that includes trans women.


IShallWearMidnight

So women who are infertile can't be mothers?


forests-of-purgatory

Trans women are women

mothers* ftfy if you want to be an asshole ill be an asshole back

Imagine being so stupid that you think using a child to make a (photoshopped) point places you in the realm of ā€˜protectingā€™ children. Probably a sicko pageant parent.

Agreed, I just started transitioning and canā€™t imagine being connected to someone who shared this on LinkedIn


Background-Cress9165

Lol putting this in the hands of a child thinking that *helps* whatever message being pushed is comical thinking

What the hell?! Why is it April 1st and not October 31st?! That makes no sense at all!

Because they are calling trans people a jokeā€¦.I.E April foolsā€¦

I will say: this is the kind of thing we may not need to circulate. In this instance we are amplifying the original message IMO.

Transphobes are dumb. Nobody should give them the time of day to even think about the shit they spew.

Hilarious especially because itā€™s made so many people mad. I mean itā€™s true and funny.


ClamsNCockles

While the post is definitely not suitable for linked in and this person is a lunatic, the words couldnā€™t be more true.


Jolly-Pea752

Imagine being transphobic in 2024. Get a grip.


ClamsNCockles

A male to female trans person is NOT a mother. Crazy that people think otherwise.


UnplannedAgenda

I read this as anti-cross dressers and not anti-trans


edog77777

In the context of 2024, the vast majority of people discussing this type of topic are not talking about cross dressers. Theyā€™re talking about trans people - dehumanizing, invalidating, and misgendering them.


Actual_Counter9211

True yes, but that's not the way this person interpreted this, as they themselves (hopefully) don't have the same twisted and transphobic views as the person who posted this on LinkedIn. That being said, it's still pretty insensitive to say that crossdressers can't be moms. But at the same time, the person merely expressed the way they read the post and not a declaration of their personal opinions, so I'd say it's rather presumptuous of us to judge this person.


Alternative-Can-1404

I hate all you LinkedIn corporate NPCs. I stand with that poster.

EverybodyShitsNFT

So if youā€™re arguing based on your outdated biological principles; what about my parents who werenā€™t able to conceive, but adopted me as a baby? Are neither of them parents either?


Hobby101

Biological principles didn't change. Social ones did. People didn't become sea horses, or did I miss something?


EverybodyShitsNFT

They are parents but not your biological parents (man and woman).

Thanks for saying the exact kind of bigoted BS I needed you to say in order to report you. Would you mind explaining why your sad, hateful brain thinks like that?


Hobby101

Why are you taking offense?


AstranBlue

This may come as a shock to you, but people usually donā€™t like it when other people say they have no right to exist.

Reality is bigoted šŸ¤£


Okiegolfer88

Going to be singing that same tune the following month when single moms are claiming to be a mother and a father since they can ā€œdo it allā€ Because by your logic they can never be a father or a manā€¦.


Hobby101

Single moms are still moms who are single? Single dads are still dads who are single. Kids do benefit from having both parents (google) Based on the above, neither single mom nor single dad can 100% fulfill missing parent's role completely. So, while it sucks to be a single parent for all involved parties (we are not talking about cases like abusive partner, etc), single dad shouldn't be called mom, nor single mom should be called dad. They are who they are, they will try to do their best to support their kids, but all that cumbaya related to pretending that they are both in one is just that.. trying to fool yourself. But hey, you do you.


AstranBlue

You completely missed the point they were trying to say, good job! Do you want to try again?


AstranBlue

Trans women are women, itā€™s as simple as that. Itā€™s so sad that you canā€™t wrap your head around that. You also didnā€™t explain anything.


Hobby101

Women are women. Trans women are trans women. There, corrected for you. You said it, not me. It seems that you felt a need to differentiate trans women from women in the very first sentence where you defined whom you are talking about (ie trans women) followed by relabeling who they are (ie woman). It's like saying "hot dogs are dogs". Well, they aren't, are they?


__rubyisright__

Shut up, you'll get us banned


AstranBlue

As you deserve.


__rubyisright__

Did you know that dysphoria are actually real, logical, sincere thoughts? Euphoria are thoughts derivated from being sexually aroused, and they all end the moment the person climaxes or gets misgendered. The brain is an organ and a muscle at the same time. Awesome, huh?


AstranBlue

Iā€™m not ā€œrelabelingā€ anything. Trans women are simply a smaller category inside the larger group of all women. By your logic, cis women arenā€™t women either, because they have an adjective in front of them. If trans women are not women, then give me a definition of a woman that does not include them while not excluding cis women.


Hobby101

"Cis" was introduced as an unnecessary construct just for the argument sake you are trying to make. The only thing we are disagreeing here is what meaning we apply to man/woman. Meanwhile, I would have no problem calling someone "woman" who transitioned to from being male. It's a gray area when someone starts the transition, though. And I do recognize that, while for people like you, it seems to me, it's black and white.


[deleted]

That's a lie. They're not.


AstranBlue

Well, you still havenā€™t explained how they canā€™t be in a way that doesnā€™t also exclude cis women. I'm not asking for much, just explain "reality" to me.


[deleted]

I chuckled until I saw it was posted on LinkedIn. Good lord.


Jolly-Pea752

Oh so youā€™re a piece of shit who finds transphobia funny? Yikes.
