today’s example of why modern Conservatives are weird people
“Tampon Tim is hands down the best political nickname ever,” tweeted conservative commentator Liz Wheeler. “It’s so… savagely effective. In one word tells you EVERYTHING you need to know about Tim Walz’s dangerous radicalism.”
The moniker refers to a law that Walz, the governor of Minnesota, signed last year, requiring public schools to provide menstrual products — including pads and tampons — to students in 4th through 12th grades.
Tim Walz’s dangerous radical agenda of…providing menstrual products to adolescent kids that might need them? lolol
I’ve seen the news story since, but my first thought when I heard about it yesterday from someone was ‘what is with conservatives weird obsession with little girls’.
Now I know they are freaking out about the law being for all bathrooms, not just girls bathrooms. Trans panic aside, I can easily see a girl telling her boyfriend “the bathroom is out of tampons/pads, can you get me one from the boys bathroom?”.
