I’m an old enough queer to remember the 80s, 90s, and 2000s. The fact that things are so different now from even 20 years ago should be enough evidence that these are structured decisions.

Every time a Democrat says they understand why parents are concerned about pronouns or trans girls playing sports or whatever the fuck, they are campaigning for the party that will deliver on the affirmed “good“ that is transphobia

One of the reasons it’s a problem that Democrats keep ceding ground to transphobes is that it actually just helps conservatives get more votes by not contesting any of the transphobic shit that conservatives are using as a gateway message

One of the first things Trump did in Feb. 2017 was set up an office in DHS to *exclusively* publicize crimes committed by immigrants — just as the Nazis used Der Stürmer to publish a special section only highlighting “Jewish crimes.”

We cannot normalize this federal occupation of Minneapolis.
It is not normal to watch people abducted in front of our eyes—dragged from car windows, pulled from their homes, and children left without parents.
This is not about immigration. It’s about unchecked cruelty.

If you are appalled at the tactics of ICE and CBP, you should be! They in fact are *NOT* trained for the work they're doing in America's interior right now—and they're scared of interacting with US citizens. That's a recipe for the exact disaster we see: www.doomsdayscenario.co/p/ice-101-ho...

The US would not be able to handle a Canadian insurgency, especially since they are culturally, linguistically, and ethnically almost identical to the US. Not only that, many Americans would assist them and they have an insane number of civilian guns to give them.
"Canada does not have the number of military personnel or the sophisticated equipment needed to fend off a conventional American attack. So the military envisions unconventional warfare in which small groups of irregular military or armed civilians would resort to ambushes, sabotage, drone warfare…"
Military models Canadian response to hypothetical American invasion
Armed Forces envision insurgency tactics like those used by Afghan mujahedeen, sources say. But officials and experts stress a U.S. operation is unlikely, and the scenarios are conceptual

Mamdani always centered "affordability" in the context of human rights first and foremost.
Schumer centers affordability because a centrist consultant using ChatGPT told him human rights don't play well in the heartland.

I understand recoiling in fear, tuning things out, or retreating — I fully get it, on an emotional level. But I can't imagine not fighting. I simply cannot fathom seeing these forces at work in our world, let alone in close proximity to me, and not saying "fuck that" and throwing down.

As I wrote for Rolling Stone, this was the most dangerous bill for trans health care of the Trump 2.0 era because it would potentially include a Hyde amdt for trans care without the votes to kill it.
That it’s not in the bill is a big deal and reveals it was a poison pill for Dems to fund the govt

6. This framing, however, fundamentally misunderstands both drag and its comparison to blackface. Blackface was created by white performers to dehumanize a marginalized group and reinforce racial subjugation. Drag, by contrast, emerged from marginalized communities themselves.

1. In one of his most extreme rulings yet, Judge Kacsmaryk compared drag to blackface, said it contained no free speech message, and allowed WT A&M to ban drag on campus.
The ruling is the latest anti-LGBQT+ ruling from one of the most anti-LGBTQ+ judges in the nation.
