    For fucks sake.

    If you can’t even remember what it was like just four fucking years ago under Trump, then you know what? You fuckos deserve him.

    I’m white, male, and I can cosplay as christian and conservative. The people that can’t pass as white, aren’t obviously male, and can’t temporarily appear to be christian and conservative will be far more fucked than you currently seem to believe is possible if Trump gets re-elected.

    This ‘both sides’ shit is so goddamn tiresome, esp. when one side is demonstrably better even on the genocide of the Palestinian people.

        Hey, just so we’re clear, Biden is trying to make sure that The Gays™️ have the right to exist, has been expanding title IX protections, and is doing his best to make sure that LGBTQ+ people are protected under the law, and which Republican states are suing over to prevent source. I’m sure you think that the fight is over for you, you’ve got your basic bare minimum rights, and that’s good enough. But I’m old enough to remember when California (!!!) had a vote and overturned marriage equality (the effort to overturn marriage equality was largely funded by the Mormon church, BTW), which is what led to Obergefell v. Hodges, 576 U.S. 644 (2015, which, yes, was under Obama). But the thing you gotta remember here is that Obergefell was a 5-4 decision, with Kennedy, Ginsburd, Breyer, Sotomayor, and Kagan in the majority, with Roberts, Scalia, Thomas, and Alito dissenting. The current court, courtesy of Trump, would have Roberts, Coney-Barrett, Thomas, Alito, Kavanaugh, and Goresuch against marriage equality, and only Sotomayor, Jackson, and Kagan in favor.

        So, yeah, cool story bro. Tell your trans friends that you didn’t care enough about them to make the minimum effort.
