I guess they decided separating kids from parents was getting bad press, so they started separating parents from kids… Wait…

Chick-fill-A is unnatural, so there is that.

Will they stop serving blue-haired grandmothers at the drive-through?

I’m sure they’re applying this standard to every bleach blonde woman in their employ regardless of race. It’s not their natural hair color.

I’m shocked that the womenfolk at Holy Chicken are even permitted to show their hair in public at all.

Since her decision to quit, Williams says she’s filed a complaint with the Equal Employment Opportunity Commission.
And you know full well that dog-damned middle management person will keep their job no matter what.

Probably not. Fast food managers are expendable. The CFA executive(s) who hires asshole managers and encourage this kind of bigotry will remain untouched, though.

Richard Hanania, a visiting scholar at the University of Texas, used the pen name “Richard Hoste” in the early 2010s to write articles where he identified himself as a “race realist.” He expressed support for eugenics and the forced sterilization of “low IQ” people, who he argued were most often Black. He opposed “miscegenation” and “race-mixing.” And once, while arguing that Black people cannot govern themselves, he cited the neo-Nazi author of “The Turner Diaries,” the infamous novel that celebrates a future race war.
A decade later, writing under his real name, Hanania has ensconced himself in the national mainstream media, writing op-eds in the country’s biggest papers, bending the ears of some of the world’s wealthiest men and lecturing at prestigious universities, all while keeping his past white supremacist writings under wraps.

Wow, seeing this sort of thing so often makes me think we should have an “it’s always projection” topic…

A nice big judicial “fuck off Texas GOP.” It’s not enough and it will be appealed. But this is good

While this is legally, a win, it still leaves actual providers, where the outcome is not known ahead of time, in a position of having to think about “how much time and legal risk am I willing to commit when the second cousin twice removed of this patient decides to try to claim that bounty on me?” This law was never really meant for enforcement. it was meant for intimidation. If medical providers are facing financial and professional ruin for delivering certain procedures, they are going to avoid those procedures. I sympathize with these guys. We spent many years and many dollars to get to where we are, and the government in TX is saying that “if we decide this pregnancy was not as unviable as you say, we will take your livelihood and ruin you, potentially imprison you. But you go ahead and use your judgement.” I do not envy these guys being in this position. Unfortunately, the fascists are getting much bolder about this, and are using these strategies to attack a wide variety of providers and patients. And the Leopards Eating People’s Faces are never satisfied.
