I have taken psychic damage and still don’t even comprehend what this is supposed to mean.

    Not quite. They are going after him for putting tampons in men’s restrooms. I assume this would be for trans men if it’s even true, which is cool and good ofc but they’re not attacking it as a “government handout”, they’re attacking it as a transphobia thing.

      It’s certainly primarily for trans men, but it’s a good idea for other reasons too. Making tampons widely available helps destigmatize menstruation, and makes it far less likely that anyone who gets a period will be caught without one. It’s unequivocally a good thing he did, and it’s hilarious that they’ve settled on it as a primary line of attack.
