I work at a assisted living facility. I blocked Fox News on every television in the building. Turns out the people are more happy. Less anger going on.
I can't believe you got away with that. My mother was in a nursing home and had her own tv in her room and had Fox on 24/7.
Bullshyte
Lucky you...I used to work at Planet Fitness & our cable service was out of whack for 3 days & while we could get many channels, Fox wasn't one of them & the magasheep cult members whined endlessly 24/7 & flooded us with complaints claiming we were deliberately boycotting Fox "News"...
One guy who was clearly in need of a 12 step program threw a fit when I pointed out that someone as clearly intelligent as him should be able to figure out how to stream Fox on his phone for the brief time he was there if he was that desperate....🤣🤣🤣🤣
Oh if only I could. Administration would flip out. So many people would watch fox News all day at the SNF I worked at
This will actually flex their brain 🧠 without all the nonsense brain washing them
I didn’t even know there was a trans visibility day. Thanks Fox News for letting me know.
How are you celebrating?
@@danm9390 by ignoring bigots
I'm trans and didn't know it was Trans Visibility Day 😅
Nobody ever told me. Until Fox News. Thanks for bringing visibility to the trans community, Fox News!
what about all the kids in gaza daily show. trans something too
@@ARealMensch00where was all the outrage during the genocide in Darfur? Guess it wasn't as popular
I legitimately didn’t know there was a transgender holiday. Thank you, Fox News for constantly looking for things to be upset about. You’ve raised the awareness for us all!
I legitimately didn’t know there wasn’t a day that was trans visibility day. It’s very visible. And just about 1/3rd of the year is now an L G B T or Q declared religious day or month.
Just keep in mind that the total number of trans children in the US is a fraction of the Palestinian children that Biden has murdered in the past few months, most of them in bed, their own bed or a hospital bed. This is just Biden trying to deflect by virtue signaling.
41mtf I didn't know ether. I'm glad she pointed out that the visability itself was what was under attack
They have around 145 trans-holidays in USA...

With all those adults running around in bunny costumes, Easter should also be designated Furry Visibility Day.
😂
I mean, I love Easter for that reason, sure. But there's a lot of non-bunny furs, so Halloween is the usual go-to, from what I've seen.
Yippie
Next year Easter is 4/20. This should be interesting.
😆 Hitler's birthday
Stay strong stoners.
Yes, that's Hitler's birthday.

Love how Laura Ingram says "im just gonna say it I think it's demonic" as if they don't call every other thing demonic. so scandalous.
Every accusation is usually a self report by them.
@@sophiepooks2174 I have always suspected that Ingram was a demon, given what comes out of her mouth.
As an European, I find the degree to which so many American Christians (particularly evangelicals) conflate ‘being Christian’ with all other aspects of their worldview quite simply staggering.
Sure. Over here, we see a bit of that with every religion to some extent; but these American Christians take this to a whole new level.
Where everything from ‘patriotism’ to ‘owning guns’ and ‘being anti-(trans)people’ somehow become cornerstones of the Christian experience.
And that is the true blasphemy!!!
I'd say the majority of Merkins couldn't possibly get any stupider.
american christians are a whole new species... nobody likes them even other christians of other nationality or races cant stand them
I reckon it's this kind of Christianity that caused the religious wars and persecution in Europe. Early Americans would be disappointed to know that the mess they left behind caught up with them.
Oh many of them believe being rich is a sign of God’s blessing. I kid you not 😂
Kosta is right no average person knew when Trans visibility day is. Fox basically made it well known.
Streisand effect.
So true! I’ll be honest, I never knew it even existed until this year. Great job spreading awareness Fox!
What does “trans-visibility” even mean? I wonder how George Carlin would have responded to this subject.
public awareness of trans people, hope this helps :)@@danm9390
Sure. The president announcing it is not what raised the awareness.
I’m a trans teen with a few (mostly online, we tend to stick together) friends, and none of us had any idea this existed until I saw conservatives fuming over it. 😂
Yup. Thats usually what religious people do. It is disgraceful. Stay strong!!
I'm a trans woman who transitioned in 1992, and I only found out about TDoV a few years ago.

"Biden declared"... no. He didn't. The calendar did a funny. Easter technically landed on Trans Visibility Day. So unless Biden can control the calendar... I don't think it's his issue. In fact he made sure to include both religious people celebrating Easter and trans-people. I think that's great.
As an atheist, I think Biden did a great job of it. He is true to himself and supportive of both communities. He brings people together rather than setting them against each other.
You can't put a religious decoration on an egg for the White House egg roll. Even though it's easter. I don't know how you think that is inclusive to religious people. Also tdov is not a recognized holiday on the national level. The only reason it is so is because Biden proclaimed it to be so and he establishes that date based upon a 15-year-old tradition. He could easily have chosen to put it on the Monday in deference to a 180-year-old tradition
Gosh dang libruls are controlling the moon now to manipulate the lunar cycle so it lands on the day. But they're also incompetent at the same time somehow.
It wasn't an official day, Biden made it that intentionally on Easter of this year.
That's what Jesus would do
In my 74 years, I think I've met fewer than half a dozen trans people, so what is all the fuss about, and, by the way, they were all nice people !
While on a semester in canada I met more trans people than I ever did living in Germany.
They were nice as well. Also tried a proper, gender neutral bathroom for the first time there. No issues at all. Republicans are crybabies
How does Michael Kosta deliver those lines with a straight face. UNbelievable.
I celebrated both by visibly going to church. Nothing burst into flames.

@@AdrianneJH for real. Though at the same time I wouldn't wanna push her mental health for the fox viewing hours to do so.
This is exactly what I was thinking! She's relaxing right into it and doing fabulously, excited to see how this goes this year
Honestly, this whole deal is a mixed blessing. On the positive, more people are away of trans visibility day. On the other, it is yet another reminder that ignorant people who wish me and people like me didnt exist
I’m straight. Most of us wish you well and to have a happy life. You are our brothers and sisters and etc. the minority of nasty people are loud but a despised minority by most of us. Have Easter 🐣
Easter is not even on the same month every year. I prefer an ignorant person to a willfully ignorant one.
Odd they never were outraged when this happened previously.
It's almost like it's fake outrage just to get morons riled up.
Imagine how upset they will be next year when it falls on April 20th.
I'd rather Easter get recognised by the literal President (who's suppose to be Catholic) than a visiblity day for people pretending to be the opposite gender.
Easter is the first Sunday following the first full Moon after the Spring Equinox.
Here is a test to your preference, please be sure to look it up.
The Lee Greenwood Bible went on sale in 2021, and was compiled by Lee Greenwood. Trump had nothing at all to do with the book until a few weeks ago when the publisher starting paying Trump to endorse it. Trump is getting paid to endorse that Bible.
It seems all Left media has missed this one. I am all abord the anti-Trump train, however do not start start lying in it. The left media was just as quick to jump all over Trump endorsing a Bible, as the Right was with Transgender day being the same day as Easter. Neither side looked into either before going into outrage.
If Easter was so important they would have put it on a MONDAY... and given us the day off!
It’s scaremongering for the sake of scaremongering
I don't remember right-wing conservatives being so upset when Easter fell on April Fool's day.
Well there was no one to spread hate against. So crickets from them then.
Which time?
Thats next year. Lets not let them forget that they are intruding on our sacred day like the blasphemers they are.
Ah yes, coming back from the dead - best April Fools Day joke ever
They weren't trying to drink it pointless outrage then. They have to make sure their outrage du jours involve a small enough group of people do they can't fight back, and April 1 didn't represent any of them.
"Do you love your mom, or do you hate slavery?" Trumps answer: "Ummmmm, probably, the opposite of both, equally."
It's very personal. He does not like to talk about it.
Jesus was about acceptance, not judging others, helping the poor and weak. These folks who rail against LGBTQ have totally dissociated from the tenets of their own faith.
Yes Jesus accepted you and then said go and sin no more.
Yeah, but then even though Jesus warned of it happening, about 40 years after resurrection some guy who didn't know how to ride a horse wrote some letters to the romans. Which negated a bunch of Jesus's actual teachings. And according to "real Christians" those letters are more important than Jesus's words.
@@c9rm3nAgree. So glad a friend gave me the new testament with Jesus' words in red ink, early in my study.
The MAGA base wouldn’t even accept JC if he made a comeback. They’d call him a Woke, Liberal, Hippie who supports Communism.
And Easter bunny is supposed to represent a hermaphrodite so more or less a trans day by Christian definition... So they're not just dissociated but in denial of their own faith :)
i love how it would have been 99% easter and 1% trans visibility in terms of attention and discussion, but throwing a fit about it made the two equal. like, if you just bit your tongue about a short mention of trans people then you could have had your christian day. maybe the problem isn't that trans visibility day is march 31st but rather that in order to not ever risk overlapping a holiday with easter, you couldn't have any holidays between mid march and mid april.
Interesting that Jesus's death and resurrection aren't specific, known dates on the calendar but instead a vague March/April "weekend vibe" after a full moon or something. Obviously if it were a real date, the anniversary of that date wouldn't change from year to year. Seems very sus.
I really appreciate the irony of Fox News unintentionally making Trans Visibility Day more visible. I'm trans and didn't even know it was a thing.
@@LadyDoomsinger so nice of Fox News to stand with the Trans community even it they didnt mean to
@@0Fyrebrand0 we don't even use the same calendar that Jesus would have, so the holidays wouldn't line up with a specific date. December 25th wasn't the date of Jesus's birth either.
Reality is they wanted to attack President Biden with something since they have nothing on the impeachment end.
The Donald said "I am Presbyterian Protestant. I go to Marble Collegiate Church ... as often as I can, a lot."
Two problems with Trump's declaration. First, Marble Collegiate, on New York's 5th Avenue, is a Reformed, not Presbyterian, church. And second, though the Trump family does have a history of attending Marble, officials there quickly sent out a statement saying Trump "is not an active member."
Covfefe also stated (before he realized it was better to claim that the Bible is too personal to discuss... smart move) that he knew some verses from Corinthians Two. It's like Terminator Two but.... holier.
I'm pretty sure Presbyterians are a branch of the Reformed tradition
@@ChristianCatboy Just like Catholics are a branch of Judaism.
Are you joking?
@@ChristianCatboy Liked your own comment. How MAGA.
@@ChristianCatboy An English sentence ends with punctuation, Bore Us.

Best answer! I'm stealing that line
I wish they had pointed out that Jesus DID talk about "eunuchs", and specifically went out of his way to say they should be accepted.
Seriously, look it up.
Yes Matthew 19😊
Yes, that is correct, but the eunuchs were not then claiming to be women. Should we then designate all trans identifying people as eunuchs?
There’s a difference between the torturous, inhumane practice of genital mutilation conducted against someone’s will and the medical treatment for gender dysphoria that is reassignment therapy & surgery.
@@pokechatter No, He is explicit that even those who CHOSE to become eunuchs should be accepted. Why didn't you read it, first?
Every day is Christian visability day. Lol.
It can get exhausting.
How? Literally point me to anything in our culture right now that is explicitly Christian? I was sincerely confused by that statement in this video.
@@cecil3344 there are numerous broadcast from Christian churches across the country every Sunday, even every day, on certain dedicated networks. As a nation, we celebrate the birth of Christ, and his resurrection

Look, Easter, you can't just go in and out of calendar dates like a revolving door.
Well, when Da Church steals a holiday from the pagans as a ruse to convert them, and yet it haven't the first effing clue about exactly when anything in your allegedly inerrant texts took place (if they actually occurred at all), it has to come up with something on which to base its enforced-by-the-sword-and-stake ballyhoo.
👆underrated comment
This is hilarious 😂
Seriously! Which is it Jesus, are you a Capricorn or an Aries or what, pick a lane,
Easter is identifying as a different date in Catholic and Orthodox tradition...
The actual day Trans Visibility Day was chosen to coincide with is of course the day The Matrix opened in theaters in the United States: March 31, 1999
Someone in my area was outraged that County offices were closed 4/1 to celebrate the State Holiday of Cesar Chavez Day (3/31). He was upset that they weren't closed for Easter Sunday on Monday.
Fox just Streisanded Trans Visibility Day.
I can only guess what that means, but yeah Fox and the wing-nuts have made it more visible than anything else ever did.

Long before it was imported into the Christian tradition, the Spring Festival honored the goddess Eostre or Eastre. The name is pronounced Easter. She was the ancient Anglo Saxon goddess of the dawn and the Vernal Equinox.
Easter is basically a pagan holiday...
I don't think it was ever "imported" Easter is a very important time for them but has nothing to do with Easter. It is absolutely pagan to them.
They could just declare Easter to be the closest Sunday to the Vernal Equinox.
BUT
They don't want to AND
They need to keep their Jesus off my Springtime 😂😂☺☺😋😋!!!!!!!
@@larrymunn5279 who is them?
Eggs, Rabbits, hello fertility symbols! If your way of life is hunting and farming that's important - no wonder they kept those symbols into monotheism. On some level they thought the ideas all linked up.
All of the Christian holidays were. They thought it would make the mass conversion easier for people.
the "orthodox easter vs orthodox trans visibility day" joke really made my day 😄i'm greek orthodox and i was _not_ expecting a mainstream TV show to casually drop an orthodox easter reference, much less one that's actually funny.
Yea for real. I'm an excommunicated orthodox and christians can't even decide what day their major holiday is. I'm also trans and it reminds me of childhood bullies who always mocked me for not knowing when easter "really" is.
see,i do that joke a lot about weird holidays like eastern orthodox arbor day. surprisngly a lot of local people get the joke, but i have had some people online get completely confused.
That one woman in the audience, love her laugh 🐓🚨🤣👄
Fun fact: Colanders have 365 holes.
Fun fact: the English word Calendar comes from the name of the first day of the month on the ancient Roman calendar. That word is Calend.
How many holes do they have on a leap year?
the first thing i thought of reading that was 'yo mama' jokes
Did not know that!
Desi should have her own show she's amazing
I totally agree with anyone who says male/female is simple biology. Transgender is complex biology. It doesn’t fit the simple rules that you learn in a general biology class. But if they were actual biologists, they would understand that biology breaks its own rules all the time, and so transgender people existing should be of no surprise whatsoever.
I remember when I was growing up, a comedian (can't remember which one) was talking about how weird biology was. He said something like he was watching a nature program and it sounded like they were just making it up as they went along. "Yes, that's the male seahorse." "Sir, it's...giving birth." "...That's what the male seahorse does."
@PaperbackWizard I think it was a Jim Gaffigan bit.
@@ChloeKatAttack Sounds like him.
Male/Female is scientific biologically categorisation.
Man/Women is gender which is a social construct.
Side Note: There are actually 6 biological sexes.
Well it's not that simple. There are 6 sexes not 2.
I'm all for trans rights.
I only knew that it was Trans Visibility Day due to the outrage from the right about how it was Trans Visibility Day. Otherwise, my Easter would have been completely 'uninterrupted.' So who is REALLY spreading the news on trans issues?
But man, watching Ross Geller forget what Easter is why demanding that we all respect it is incredible and worth replaying several times over. I feel like people used to at least pretend to be religious while using religion to control the masses. Have we gotten so lazy that they can be this transparent in NOT being religious while still trying to command you to follow The Word?
I’m just about the same. I’m an atheist which makes it even funnier to watch.
Trans rights is compatible with Christianity, the community is meant to live and accept all of God's creation , well said 💓
Waiting for Trans Animal Day!
It’s not fair to drag Ross gellar into this. Ross is a cultural icon- Jesse waters is a tool.
@@jonathon5075
Yeah that comes from really bad epistemology and a willful rejection of Christian teaching for about the last 2000 years, in short though we are called by Christ to orient ourselves and the world away from sin and towards him, this necessarily includes not mutilating ourselves because we have a mental illness.
Things like dudes wearing high heels and dresses, though is a bit more nebulous because that rather superficial stuff is actually just social conditioning.
I think we should start moving TDoV to clash with Easter more often, and tell people it's in honour of the time Jesus went to get her bottom surgery and had to spend the weekend in the hospital recovering.
with all this controversy I still don't know if when jesus came out of his cave if he saw his shadow or not I don't want six more weeks of winter

Trans Visibility Day falls on March 31th each year. Easter is a floating holiday that falls on a different Sunday each year. If you don't want your floating Christian holiday to fall on a date that conflicts with your values, maybe you should *pick the same friggin' date each year and run with it* like your other most holy day Christmas.
Easter: it's going through a phase :P
Kosta is right - this was basically Barbenheimer for Easter and Trans visibility day; both were elevated in the public consciousness due to their proximity. We need more! Especially those that can create fun portmanteaus.

In a speech to the Christian students at Liberty University, Trump eroded his scriptural bona fides when he said, "2 Corinthians, 3:17, that's the whole ballgame." "Second Corinthians" is the proper reference, and the error prompted Family Research Council president Tony Perkins, who advised Trump on the speech, to admit, "It shows that he's not familiar with the Bible."

Or his version of that joke with "2 Corinthians came up to me, big Corinthians, strong Corinthians, tears pouring down their faces and they said to me: [...]"
Perkins just figured that out? Not too quick on the uptake
Leave it to the Right to celebrate a guy who made his whole life celebrating the marginalized, by marginalizing people.
Transgender people are the most visible and privileged in the western world. The most oppressed group globally speaking is christians according to UNHCR.
The writing for this show has gotten so strong. I love it. ❤
Just when I think the right can't possibly get any dumber, this latest freakout over nothing leaves me standing corrected.
5:34 “people can’t just go in and out of one like a revolving door” this has to be my favorite anti-trans argument because that’s just not what’s happening. Even people who are gender fluid will usually take time transitioning from one form of gender expression to another, and if it is day-to-day they tend to hover in the middle of the spectrum rather than rapidly switching from one extreme to other.
None of their arguments have ever been based around what's happening. Kids are getting mostly counseling and the word for it is gender affirming care, in Republican vocab that means scalpels are involved. The hur hur im an attack helicopter or xyz object has always been nonsense distracting from the fact that people are making 1 of 2 choices to be one or the other, at its core it's dehumanizing in nature.
I love what another poster said, something about Easter, always showing up like a revolving door.
i will always love and be grateful to Jon Stewart for everything he's done, but Desi is my favorite part of the Daily Show, ever.
5:29 If only they could somehow explain that they just don't know what it is and are therefore afraid of it...
My favorite part of easter is when it's over, all the chocolate that is on sale! I'm old, my kids are grown, and can't afford treats all the time. On sale chocolate is my miracle!
Wait. I think next year’s Easter is 4/20.
Which republican will be offended? 😊
🎲...🎲...- 👏😁
MAGA Republicans will be outraged that Biden held Marijuana Day on Easter but will be happy that Easter fell out on Hitler's birthday since their leader is so much like him.
All of them. All the time.
It's all they have.
All of them.
I blame the education system.. That the rep party is eroding.
🤣🤣🤣 This is a joke, right?
the education system can barely cover the basic subjects without teachers having to finance their own supplies. Long hours, pitiful pay... teach them to be responsible adults...?
I don’t think education would have helped. They’re old, they’ve been through it and even I understand a date can fall on a totally different day.
I blame the right-wing media reeducation system and it chasing money.
Florida has entered the chat.

I was so hoping Desi would do a segment on this. The hate from the Fox and rep still Astounds me. As was said they are going against everything love thy neighbor, Don’t judge, Accepting. Maga is hate. I celebrated Easter and Trans day Love desi behind the desk. Thanks
Banger after banger after banger! Epic show! 😂
the greatness of the daily echo chamber .
@@PanzarInthelake Panzar?
@@corvanphoenix cowards like her never debate someone else.
It's why it's called an echo chamber. Because it's like talking to yourself.
Can't see why this was an issue. What better day for the boys to get dressed up in their fanciest gowns and sparkliest jewlery and celebrate?
And Jesus transition from being dead to a zombie. It all tracks.
Are they called the boys? I thought trans went both ways. I mean man to woman and woman to man. So... Misuse of "boys"
@@sumnersvensson7237You've never gone hunting or bass fishing with "the boys" as a collective term ("manly" activities chosen on purpose, but not sure what purpose)? Or used "dudes" in mixed company?
But you'd have to ask the clergy if they were offended, but they are harder to identify without their Easter finery...
@@markstyles1246 stop talking.
Literally the sparkliest dress we have at church. Gold and flashy
These Fox peeps melt like something very cold on a warm day. ❄️
I need to apply the light hearted approach that the daily show takes on issues 😅.
Thank you for spreading the word, conservatives! Many more people know about the Day of Transgender Visibility, the 1619 Project, and Critical Race Theory.
As someone who is Genderfluid, yes I can go in and out of genders like they’re a revolving door.
🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️🎉
Can I ask you a serious question if you're not making fun here; in regards to pronouns, I'm trying to understand a bit more what the problem would be for someone genderfluid to be either he or she, like does it matter if someone says he or she in regards to you since you kinda identify as both and neither? I'm trying to understand what the point of they/them actually is. And I get you can't speak on behalf of everyone, only on a personal level, but I'm curious.
@@nustaniel I think they/them is more so for those who identify as nonbinary (neither boy or a girl) as opposed to someone who identifies with both
@@TexansF4nWell, to be literal I would expect someone identifying as both to be plural enough for “they/them”. Same for multiple personalities, tongue in cheek! We’ve never had a pronoun I am aware of for “none of the above”. And Cousin Itt is inappropriate outside of the Addams Family. Asking or being told sure helps.
@@nustaniel This is basically why the custom of informing people of their preferred pronouns in places like dating profiles, bios, etc. is a thing. To avoid this kind of confusion. Unfortunately, to conservatives, the very act of telling someone what pronouns you use, or asking for theirs is somehow an insult.
Also, please note that I used "they/them" pronouns to refer to a person whose gender identity is unknown - as has been the custom for centuries 👍
"Live your truth, Jesus." Desi should put that on a t-shirt and sell it.
I love Desi Lydic. Give me more. More. more
I would just like to point out that the date for Easter changes because it originated as a pagan holiday celebrating the spring solstice and fertility returning to nature after the winter
I wonder what they'll say next year, when Easter falls on 4/20?
So at this point do they have any holidays they didn't just steal? Sad really. Means Christians have never been able to let anyone just live their lives since their inception.
It's lunar. That's why it moves.
