This man has been using his gay identity since he emerged into politics, using it to craft a sympathetic personal narrative and as to lend himself legitimacy when he attacks other LGBTQ people. We cannot ever allow this man back into electoral politics.
Speaking at a Texas Tribune Festival on Friday, former U.S. Secretary of Transportation Pete Buttigieg criticized the Democratic Party for failing to reach everyday Americans, arguing that it “got sucked in” to a conversation about identity. #TribFest25

15-year-olds aren’t “barely legal.” There is no such thing as “underage women” they’re fucking CHILDREN.

I fuckin love Minnesota
I won’t let Trump use hunger as a political weapon.

His Department of Agriculture has multiple ways to continue feeding hungry Minnesotans during the shutdown. And instead of using it, they tried to take food off the table of kids and families across the country.

one of the best arguments against public opinion polls is that only freaks like me actually answer them
honestly the most antisemitic thing to happen to me with any regularity is the way that if you tell a public opinion poll taker you're jewish they immediately start asking about antisemitism, israel, and pretty much nothing else

I can't wait til the right remembers Stephen Miller is Jewish and makes him the scapegoat.

Stochastic terrorism though is clearly not violence even if it leads to the dictionary definition of genocide though right?

I was called very bad things by someone who was upset bc I felt neutral about today so here's some clarification

I have empathy for his family but I cannot sympathize with a man who has fought against my identity so hard and has said that
