Anti-trans activists get away with really wild claims because there are that many trans people and people don't listen to us. Stuff that doesn't fly if you make even a cursory review of the evidence just hangs around for year after year, seemingly impervious to reality.
The majority of trans people are queer, bisexual, or pansexual. Less than 15% report being straight after transition. If people being trans was a way to make them "straight" it is horribly ineffective.

BBC News: "the government believe refugees are deliberately bringing their children to avoid deportation"

As opposed to doing what with their children??

Never tell me that Dick Dastardly style mustache twirlers in fiction are unrealistic ever again.

Weird how many racists like to self-identify themselves as racists.

Whether a majority of the country would ever vote for a woman for president should not be considered answered after the loss of Kamala Harris.

Even if Harris had been a generational political talent (she isn't), she was the VP of an unpopular president and had to start campaigning in late July.
that whole 'this country isn't ready for a woman president' line is really upsetting because it shows exactly how neoliberalism works, redirecting blame from issues of policy (or lack thereof) onto a flattened, vague type of sexism in a way that ultimately doesn't even challenge sexism!

Avelo is an ICE Air charter, transporting shackled detainees on deportation flights. You'll not be shocked to learn that the flights are a fiasco: loss of cabin pressure, slow evacuations, dangerous cargo onboard, no safety checks, long tarmack delays.
Great piece by Gillian Brockell:
ICE Air’s Sloppy, Dangerous Deportation Flights - The American Prospect
Poor planning, mechanical issues, serious safety lapses, and the shutdown are taking a toll on Avelo, America’s most famous deportation airline, internal documents show.

FNAF should be just as toxic to queer people as Harry Potter and it isn’t. That is rather disappointing.

One of the creepiest things about how propaganda works is that it doesn't have to be even a little bit true or convincing.

If something is repeated enough a lot of people just start to believe it unconsciously.

They just have to lie more often than you tell the truth and more people believe it

Like, I get that Democrat/Liberal politicians were supposedly "better" at some point, but I'm 42, and those folks lost to Reagan and Bush, and then gave us Omni-Rapist Bill Clinton.
Before that, liberals reached the lofty heights of half-measuring towards actually treating women and POC as humans.

Constituents: we want you to fight

Democrats: no we're definitely going to give up

Congress’s shutdown deal eliminated key food safety rules, blocking agencies from enforcing measures to prevent contamination and trace outbreaks. This rollback has coincided with a surge in hospitalizations and deaths from foodborne illnesses.

"my least woke opinion is---"

That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.

Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.
