U.S. Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith (R-MS) on Wednesday spoke against the bill.

Sen. Duckworth stamped out Hyde-Smiths claims, saying, She said at one point the bill would allow for chimeras human-animal hybrids it does nothing of the sort. All the bill says if you want to seek reproductive technology you can

You can't make this shit up.

Oh and by the way, Senator Hyde-Smith, it's pronounced "kai-meer-ah"

British and American pronunciation are different on this actually (though both are incorrect compared to the original Greek, but that's what happens). You posted the British pronunciation.

How often is the word "chimera" used in daily life that it has different pronunciations

A lot of words have different pronunciations in British and American English (and between different accents within each). Sometimes the spelling is different too. And in general loanwords in English are often not pronounced the same as the language they came from.

Yes, we waited 47 years before creating chimeras, but GOP stopped us mere minutes before we did it!
But noooo, GOP decided to stop the whole world from playing Gods and create chimeras!

This is like something you'd expect from the 1800's, perhaps from some panicked ignoramus who had just read Frankenstein or the Island of Dr. Moreau (or more likely heard about these stories from someone else) and was seeing a mad scientist around every corner.

And people like my mom will vote for this idiot while also being really skeptical of the science of gender transition. I hate it!

idk not being familiar enough with the thing youre arguing against to even pronounce the word kinda cuts the legs out from under your argument imo

always reminds of that christmas story scene where the dad thinks the lamp is italian because the box says "fragile" on it lol

Or, as Jon Favreau (the Obama speechwriter, not the MCU/Star Wars actor/director) succinctly put it:

"Democrats should never make policy based on what we think Republicans will say. They will never criticize the policy on the merits. They will always tell the craziest lies."
