Several Alabama politicians say they are concerned about children’s safety at Huntsville’s Space Camp after a parent complained about the presence of a transgender employee.

U.S. Sen. Tommy Tuberville and Reps. Dale Strong and Robert Aderholt posted statements on X, formerly known as Twitter, after a parent posted on Facebook complaining about the gender identity of one of the U.S. Space and Rocket Center employees. The topic was also picked up by the Libs of TikTok account.

    Every day I feel like I can’t possibly hate these people more and every day they show me I have a larger capacity for hate than I previously assumed.

    They’re developing a facet about myself that I don’t enjoy developing.

      Now imagine the unending, visceral vitriol you’d be feeling if you also happened to be transgender, and you’ll come close to understanding how I feel 24/7.

        I really wish people understood the psychological toll of this shit. It sucks to wake up, read the news, and be constantly reminded that a substantial amount of people hate people who are like me.
