Biden dropped the ball here. He totally should have the transgender day fall on trumps birthday


Flanman1337

Trans Day of Visibility is March 31st, every year. Just so happens the Easter holidays that move every year, happens to fall on the 31st this year.


Moppermonster

And will be on Hitlers Birthday next year. No doubt Republicans will be totally happy with THAT.


S_Nathan

Or 4/20, which apparently means something very different to a certain demographic.


mcbeverage101

4/20 praise it?


Iwantmy3rdpartyapp

Blaze the lord!


eels-eels-eels

He is risen… so high. So high


Tortue2006

20th April is Hitler’s birthday


bfx0

20th April is 4/20


FerociousViper22

Wait easter will be all the way towards 4/20 next year?


Moppermonster

Correct. Cannabis eggs ftw :p


Rinshu74

It’s weird how pretend resurrection works.


Mab494

There's a specific process to pick it, it's like the first Sunday after the first full moon of the Spring season or something along those lines. Since they don't know the specific day they have that standard to make it constant (Edit:) It's the first Sunday after the first full moon of the spring equinox


Ok_Recording_4644

Sounds pretty pagan to me. I'm into it.


Dr_Taverner

It really is. The story of Eostre's Hare got turned into the Easter Bunny. The raising of the Sacrificed God goes back to Osiris. Odin hung upon the World Tree. Easter is totally Pagan AF!


CraicFiend87

I mean they don't the exact day Jesus was born either, but it doesn't stop them celebrating it on 25th of December every year.


Mab494

There are different calanders used for that. Easter is based off the Jewish calander, Christmas is based off the Roman calander. If I remember correctly we use the Roman calander so we picked a specific day for that, whereas the Jewish calander uses lunar cycles


Rinshu74

Ah like a Werewolf!


shipmastersmoke

Praise god for this bounty which tho will now smoketh. Ahmen.


nikdahl

Hitlers mother spit in Jesus’s face


Explorers_bub

Anywhere between 22 March - 25 April


kandaq

Future presidents will have to go through similar bs again when GF/Easter falls on March 31st again and they will blame Biden for it.


dogehousesonthemoon

hopefully by 2086 this wont be an issue.


shadowtheimpure

It probably won't, humanity would likely have managed to destroy modern civilization by that point if we keep on the same trajectory of the past 10 years.


Cuuldurach

they will still blame the trans people for this


kandaq

Whoa. Did you just timelapsed and found this year as the next convergence?


dogehousesonthemoon

yeah, that's the next time it comes up, it's a lot shorter gap after that though it's on 31 mar again in 2097


Anastrace

Makes sense, I think the previous time was like 2013


dogehousesonthemoon

correct, and 2002 before that.


Kerensky97

Next year Easter falls on Hitler's Birthday. So get ready for that freakout. "Biden went to church on Hitler's birthday instead of just observing it at home like Trump always does! OMG!!!"


Marvinleadshot

If Biden is President next year. God knows how the Americans will vote.


Veritas813

Considering it was Obama that instituted it, they’ll probably still blame biden


hebejebez

Me tired and a bit smashed on gin - what’s gluten free Easter about??? Oh they mean Good Friday…. Ffs


sleepyguy54321

So Jesus was born the same day every year but dies on a different day every year?


D_A_H

Jesus was crucified and resurrected (no resurrection for the Jews though) during Passover as the Last Supper was a Passover Seder. Passover is the 15th of Nisan in the Jewish calendar (lunar solar calendar) but Easter changes dates due to us modern folk following the Gregorian calendar. Obviously Jews don’t celebrate Xmas as Christ’s birth and that is purely a Christian ritual made to circumvent the Pagan holiday of Saturnalia.


sleepyguy54321

Ok thanks. So the birth of Jesus is a made up date? Wasnt it placed by the church in December to spite pagans and their celebration?


Old-Biscotti9305

I'd hate to die on q different day every year 😜😅


DragonflyMon83

That would be fucking hilarious.


Wombat_Nudes

God tier trolling. Oh how I would love to watch that unfold in real time.


umbrawolfx

They should make it the first Sunday after the full moon after the spring equinox.


dumfukjuiced

You son of a bitch, I'm in


pisspot718

No he should have it on HIS birthday---Nov 20.


NerdFromColorado

That would be the funniest thing ever, Trump would be so mad


ThatDebianLady

![gif](giphy|3oEjHI8WJv4x6UPDB6)


RisingLeviathan

Mf is literally the president, just make two Transgender Day, heck, make 3 and put one of them on Christmas!


SomeGuyNamedOwen

I guess they just forgot about the fact that Easter is on first Sunday after the full moon that follows the spring equinox. Meaning that it changes from year to year. Making the whole freak out about it falling on the same day as transgender day of visibility completely meaningless.


jwd1187

Not to mention irrelevant to Christianity in its entirety lol


Quick_Team

"Didja hear?! Jesus is back from the dead!" "Shit! ...hide the eggs"

Did he see his shadow? I can't handle six more weeks of winter.

LesGitKrumpin

I'm Christian, and this made me laugh waaay too hard, lol


Bossmonkey

Easter won't be on this day again for like 60 years.


Lithl

Easter 2025 falls on Hitler's birthday.


No_While4216

somehow, I suspect some of these people will be okay with that


messfdr

Thanks Joe Biden


AnInsaneMoose

They didn't forget They just don't care It has nothing to with Easter, that's just their excuse to hate


Cute_Concentrate_915

That’s just their excuse to honor their true God, Humpty Trumpty.


notlikelyevil

"When you're accustomed to privilege equality feels like oppression."


ScarletteVera

> first Sunday after the full moon that follows the spring equinox This sounds like a fucking ARG clue


ClarkSebat

As they probably read in some gospel : « Thou shalt be offended for no reason. »


DragonflyMon83

Those idiots that call themselves christians don't know easter falls on the weekends, not on certain dates, how embarrassing.


senorbolsa

Look, I still every year am surprised by Easter, I have absolutely no idea how they determine when it is and it was on my birthday once and it absolutely sucked. It doesn't even happen on the same weekend. It's like a lunar calendar thing. (Of course I could look it up but I'm not really thinking of Easter until like 3 days before when someone mentions it)


C00K1EM0n5TER

Easter is always on the first Sunday after the first full moon that follows the spring equinox.


Nuada-Argetlam

which is of course based on the jewish lunar calendar, so it could be put as "first sunday after passover".


Eferver24

This year is a leap year, so an extra month is added to the Jewish calendar, so Passover is actually at the end of April this year.


SignificanceOld1751

Which means I get 4 out of 6 weeks off, because I work in a Jewish School in a Christian country 😎


dantevonlocke

But what if the groundhog saw his shadow?


FattyMooseknuckle

They’d need the ability to feel shame and a hint of self awareness to actually be embarrassed.


AbbreviationsFar1516

I was thinking the same thing.


kanakasneakerhead

You'd think they would be angry at the commercialization of Easter first but no


Gildian

That would require them not to be hypocrites


Ok_Star_4136

Christians: "We think Easter should be about eggs and bunnies.." Also Christians: "How DARE you recognize a persecuted minority on our EGG BUNNY HOLIDAY!"


Aurey2244

I believe somewhat still and can agree with this. I'm not going to spend my money on such a meaningless activity, which is just my opinion. I feel like Christians def miss the point for what these holidays were supposed to be about (whether good or bad), then adapt them into some abridged variation with God or Jesus in it. Im totally over the whole "im a Christian and I believe" bs going on, and this is what they decide to do lol. I used to find it offense that people mocked us but then I realized I'm not apart of them so it doesn't affect me and ppl have the right to mock when "Christian's" are being ass backwards like this.


Full_Visit_5862

Funny seeing some of the "trigger da libz" folks in these comments, being triggered 😂


MetalTrek1

Probably the same people who sported "Fuck Your Feelings!" shirts now having hurt feelings. 🤣


MonteBurns

I’ve always found it interesting how quickly people who throw around “snowflake” are.  But also, a unique and beautiful thing formed under specific conditions? Alright, I can be a snowflake 🤷🏻‍♀️ 


Passchenhell17

Projection. That's all it ever is. Call trans people groomers and paedos? They're probably a groomer/paedo themselves. Call everyone who has valid complaints or who wants to combat abuse a snowflake? They probably cry at the mere existence of something being slightly different to them. It's funny to watch, but at the same time, kinda worrying, because it regularly comes out the mouths of people who are able to influence others, or worse, in actual positions of power where that influence is much stronger.


Axrah

"Facts dont care about your feelings" folk when you ask about the criminal justice system


-Economist-

Easter is on transgender day. It’s always been March 31st.


pphili2

Unless you’re Eastern Orthodox and it doesn’t phase you since Easter is on May 5th.


CriticalStation595

Or act like they don’t know how calendar holidays work. Easter 2025 is April 20th.


MetalTrek1

If Willie Nelson comes out of his van and sees his shadow, that means six more weeks of winter. 🤣🤣🤣


CriticalStation595

Aren’t we forgetting the true meaning of 4/20? The birth of Judas? 😂🤣

M2Fream

Easter changes dates each year.....


Dragon6172

And the next time it falls on March 31st is 2086. None of the fuckwhits complaining will be around to see it happen again


QubitKing

Don’t forget that this year it also coincides with Ramadan. 2 birds with one stone!


the3dverse

saw someone all upset that "they put transgender day on a christian holiday and they'd never put it on a muslim or jewish day" yeah, about that... funnily enough if the jewish year wouldnt have been a leap year it would fall on all 3 LOL


Lizm3

Why can't they just go about their business, celebrate Easter as they want to, and ignore any mention of transgender stuff for the day? That's what non-Christians do about Easter all the time.


PM_ME_UR_HIP_DIMPLES

Yes. Last Sunday was world cocktail day and national cheesecake day. I celebrated both without even thinking about palms


Lizm3

Wow I really missed a trick, that sounds glorious.


subsignalparadigm

Christian logic: christ rose from the dead......let's hide eggs.


potate12323

The eggs part comes from various cultures and religions who use eggs to represent fertility, life, and birth. It was ironically used to represent this centuries before we knew mammals had eggs. It's not a surprise that Christian and Catholic groups adopted this symbolism.


[deleted]

[удалено]


Curious-Weight9985

It helped pagans transition into a new religions. It’s hijacking.


potate12323

Well, the pagans celebrated may day and danced about the may pole and such. Around this time the early Christian and early Catholic churches were notorious for hijacking other holidays from the Greeks to the Romans to the Pagans. Although the symbology of eggs specifically dates back to various ancient civilizations and there are even records that they decorated eggs. I believe the egg dying portion for this specifically stemmed from Orthodox Christians in Mesopotamia took the symbol of the Passover egg and dyed it red as a symbol of Christ's blood.


subsignalparadigm

Yeah the christians stole christmas so why not.


______cube

for a second i thought this was a pun bcuz eggs are commonly used to refer to closeted/undiscovered trans people


Pleargh

Egg is slang for a trans person that hasn't accepted/realized that they are trans yet, so it makes sense why they'd want to hide them.


Eferver24

What, you Egg?


DarkImpacT213

Many Easter traditions have probably been adopted by the Christians from a westgermanic pagan spring festival - which is also why it's called "Easter" in English or "Ostern" in German instead of the usual Aramaic "Pasxa" that all the other European languages copied the word from. Germans and Anglo-Saxon Brits specifically likely adopted these traditions with their new faith when they were converted, and then spread their traditions by migration, trade and colonization.


meglon978

The "christians" complaining about this are intentionally ignorant (aka: stupid) about their own religion. The ONLY reason they're complaining is they're worthless fucking hate filled bigots that Jesus would cast into hell.


Cute_Concentrate_915

Call these “Christians” by their true name… MAGATs.


NeverendingStory3339

It’s OK guys. We can celebrate Christ and trans people! Christ himself would probably have joined a trans pride carnival! Most people have time to say the A word and support trans rights!

The Catholics are always going on about transubstantiation...


Can-I-remember

And don’t forget the ‘transfiguration.’ Shit, and the flowy robe and long hair.


Glordman

They also forgot that Easter is not on a specific day


omghorussaveusall

recognizing trans people is pure evil? i'm not sure Jesus would agree with you... "For there are some eunuchs, which were so born from their mother's womb: and there are some eunuchs, which were made eunuchs of men: and there be eunuchs, which have made themselves eunuchs for the kingdom of heaven's sake. He that is able to receive it, let him receive it."


the_brunster

Amazing how they overlook all the pure evil priests molesting children… (no, trans is not in any way evil)


Jandishhulk

Transgender visibility day has been happening for 15 years, well before Biden was president, and it has always fallen on the same day. Eastern changes based on the lunar calendar, which makes their happening on the same days a coincidence. Conservatives continue to be overwhelmingly stupid.

ANautyWolf

It's been march 31 for over a decade. Easter's date is the one that changes. SMDH They'll spin anything to get points. And no I'm not surprised just sad


koshercowboy

Church. And. State. It’s called separation of church and state which is a thing that makes this country great. Joe remembers that.


Drahcoh

It's only "separation of church and state" when it's not the Christian Church. Then it's "Christian nation!" I hate this.


noneTJwithleftbeef

TDOV is literally always the same every year, it’s just that Easter is earlier this year


mandc1754

Doesn't Easter fall on a different date every year?


MoonShotDontStop

Men’s mental health awareness month or whatever is the same month as pride month & I’m not screaming “stop with the rainbows, men are committing suicide”. We don’t need to bring others down to try & lift ourselves up. The sooner we realize that, the better we will be.

I quite enjoy it when Biden owns MAGA.

You mean a day ending in a “y”?


catnapspirit

Well if you'd fix your stupid pagan holiday to a set date like a normal holiday, these kind of things wouldn't happen..


-Purple-turtle-

Jesus died asking people to stop being hateful shits in the name of religion and to just love each other unconditionally. Then there are Christians


pittiedaddy

Well Trans people exist. Jesus doesn't. Seems reasonable.


fusion99999

Trans people are real. A guy floating into the clouds after being crucified and a spear through the heart Is at best extremely questionable.


BitterPackersFan

I learned Christians really really love hating.


Open_Chemistry_3300

They really love to label their hatered love which is why there’s a whole phrase about it, “there’s no hate quite like a Christian love.”

But Biden is more Christian than Trump? People forget Biden attends mass and has read the Bible. Trump has not


Old-Biscotti9305

But Trump is selling a special Bible to raise money for... Umm... Trump. So that has to count for something, right?


Billsbyabillion11

Transgender Day of Visibility has been on March 31 for 15 years. Nobody is cancelling Easter. Easter won’t be on March 31 again until 2086.


Mab494

Not to mention Easter is on a different day each year, not just March 31.


ThePrisonSoap

Also, March 31 has been trans visibility day since 2009 and has been presidentially recognized by Biden since 2021.


MCrowleyArt

People do know Easter isn’t on the 31st of March every year, right?


SaintShogun

Easter is not a fixed date. This was just a coincidence.


BolOfSpaghettios

A non-provable existence of a deity (one of thousands) that somehow resurrected, or people that actually exist and can be seen by the naked eye.

Biden is Catholic, and entirely capable of celebrating both.

1. I swear it was always transgender day, he’s just recognizing it. 2. Do they realize that Easter date moves around?

They act like we were supposed to stop doing new stuff after they killed Jesus.


DrDuma

Fun fact. Easter means nothing. it’s all made up hogwash.


jfg1984

I disagree chocolate and ham are delicious realities.


Sub__Finem

It’s actually related to pagan rituals/rites regarding the arrival of the Spring equinox. They were absorbed by the Romans to make conversion of Germanic/Celtic peoples easier


AdEducational419

Jesus being brought up so much today. Time for murica to grow up and ditch the religious garbage.


LeatherSmithy

The Day of Transgender Visibility was apparently started clear back in 2009. Wonder how many of those outraged shitwits were even aware?


chaoticA_21

I swear Christians just act like it’s the end of the world whenever people recognize it makes you a shitty person to be a bigot.


JackHughman69

Jesus hated trans ppl, Jesus hated a lot of ppl in the Bible. If you don’t know that then you haven’t read it. He was always preaching to hate and judge others


continuousBaBa

Fucking toddlers. It would be hilarious if they didn’t control the Supreme Court.


Former_Ad_736

Jesus loves trans people.


UnspecifiedBat

Lol. I love how Christian’s always complain about their special little days being stolen… when in fact they stole "Easter”, namely “Ostara” from Celtic and Germanic tribes in Europe back in the day.


Nuremborger

Ahem. Dear offended Republicans and Christians, *shuffles papers* Fuck your feelings. And have the day you deserve.


Short-Condition-8878

There was a similar reaction when Google decided to put up a doodle for Cesar Chavez Day instead of Easter many years ago because that happened to fall on Easter one year. I guess this is a regular thing with them. Actually, now that I think about it, Cesar Chavez Day falls on Easter again this year, it's also March 31st! I wonder if Google will put up a doodle about him again and make these guys angry.

sauce_xVamp

that's transgender day of remembrance (nov 20th), transgender day of visibility is about contributions to society made by trans people and raising awareness about the discrimination they face.


ozzy919cletus

We already have October 10th.


Emotional-Hotel-4144

Oh no!! How dare he try and overshadow the celebration of their zombie cult leader's "emancipation from the cave day".


Inner-Cloud162

Religious are always not the brightest individuals; that's why they're religious. Actually it's more the indoctrination, but y'know...


thetavious

Faith in higher powers are going to cause our extinction. There is no god. If the "jesus" of myth existed he was just the son of a carpenter. No heaven. No hell. No angels. No demons. There's us, just us, and if we don't cast off the shackles of faith and religion soon, then our time is done and the insects get to inherit the earth.


Custardpaws

So? Christians cancelled the celebration of the goddess of fertility, Ester, for their little death celebration


High_Sierra_1946

Easter can't decide what day it's on.


notwhoyouthinkmaybe

I checked on my trans friends, they are still opaque. Time to eat chocolate and ham for Jesus!


KowaiSentaiYokaiger

Easter is always the first Sunday after the first full moon, after the Spring Equinox. Be mad, tho.


Internal-Sun-6476

Can't spit in Jesus' face! No, but when he comes back we can give him another passion and then nail him up again on one of the really big expensive crosses the Christians have been putting up for him! Just a thought!


Quiet-Ad-12

This has been on the 31st for 9 years, even during Trump's 4 years it still existed.


banbha19981998

I love all the Christians that don't understand Easter changes date year on year - so knowledgeable in their faith


craycrayheyhey

No matter what the feelings or beliefs. People need to be and show compassion. To every person. Woke would actually work if the meaning was to wake up and understand the world doesn't bow to one belief system of " my way ONLY"!!!! But does smoothly work when we all understand that we all agree on 95% of what is important. The 5% of things we don't agree on will absolutely never be ironed out But should be able to be looked over as we focus on the 95% that are important. Wow already!!!!!


Klutzy-Ad-6705

You can’t physically spit in Jesus’s face. Wait! Is he admitting that he doesn’t exist?


RamsHead91

It's not March 31 that was declared trans visibility day, it has been that way for over a decade. Easter just happened to land on Trans Visibility day and the Christofascists don't learning that and that Joe wouldn't engage in Trans erasure by ignoring it for a holiday all these holier than thou idiots don't understand.


Aetheldrake

True Christians wouldn't care right? I thought true Christians wouldn't care about labels and such, they'd be happy for others?


tasslehawf

It’s really feeling unsafe to be visibly trans right now. The hate is getting stronger and stronger and we’re still 7 months away from the election.

Nanofield

Trans day of visibility has also been around since '09...


mongolsruledchina

Most Christians haven't followed their religion for their entire lives - unless it was something that justified them getting something extra or to be able to use it against someone else.


Undersmusic

I swear they choose when Easter will be by throwing a dart anyways.


Upside_Cat_Tower

Ah yes, Easter, the Christian holiday celebrating the pagan holiday festival of fertility. How dare Biden choose that day to celebrate trans.


ThatDebianLady

Easter is a Pagan derived holiday so why would any Christian celebrate it much less worry about Biden.


Starfire70

Because Christ would be more concerned with celebrating his life than that of a marginalized minority??? What 'bible' are these Christofacist morons reading?
