There was a very real conversation about putting litter boxes in classrooms as a way to give kids locked in a classroom during a school shooting for hours a way to use bathroom. That got twisted by far-right pundits that kids are identifying as cats and that’s why they are putting litter boxes in classrooms. It’s just another way to attack people that “identify” as the “wrong gender”. It’s complete bullshit and anyone with more than 2 brain cells to rub together that can use Google could figure it out, if they weren’t completely focused on denigrating anyone outside their strict interpretation of gender.
I had never heard about litter boxes. Can you elaborate?
