No Comments on TMI 11/29/2024 – The Origin of Black Friday, Whites Voted Trump Into Power, Texas’ D&C Effective Ban Claims Another Life, NY Times’ Call For Better Treatment of Trans Haters Betrayed by Rowling, more

We start this week with a staple of TMI’s Black Friday episodes, with Aldous giving the true story of how Black Friday got its name. Next, we note that no matter how bewildered we may be at Latino or Black support for Trump this year, White people have to face facts: there are too many of us to overcome if enough of us want something.

Then, we look at how state abortion bans, like the one in Texas, stops doctors from performing necessary procedures like D&Cs to save the life of people who have miscarried. Finally, we go over how the New York Times’ exhortation that we should all be nicer to those spreading anti-trans messaging got blown up a few days later when J.K. Rowling decided to savagely go after Barbra Banda for legitimately winning a women’s sports award.

Atlas Shrugged Ayn Rand Congress Conservative Politics Episode Montana Nancy Mace Sarah McBride The Secret Toxic Masculinity Transgender Transphobia WSUM Zooey Zephyr

TMI 11/22/2024 – The Inisidious Effect of Atlas’ Secret, How Sarah McBride Has Become Far More Consequential Than Any Other Freshman Congressional Representative, more

On this week’s episode of TMI with Aldous Tyler, we look at how two books, taken together, help explain much of the ethos behind modern American conservatism. Not only do we speak to how Ayn Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged” had been an obvious cornerstone of the “I’ve got mine, screw you” crowd, but how insidiously “The Secret” managed to creep in and influence our current state of politics.

Next, we look at how tensions flared in Congress as incoming Representative Sarah McBride (D-DE), poised to become the first openly transgender member of Congress, found herself personally targeted by Representative Nancy Mace (R-SC). Mace, in a highly controversial move, criticized McBride’s right to use women’s restrooms, arguing that McBride should be forbidden from accessing them due to her transgender identity, going so far as to introduce legislation to keep all transgender people from being able to use the restrooms that correspond to their presentation. We go over how McBride’s response differs from that of Montana State Representative Zooey Zephyr when she was faced with targeted discrimination in the Montana Legislature, and what the implications are for all transgender people who visit Federally-owned facilities.
