One fun way of getting your Republican family member to acknowledge that Musk made a Nazi salute is to ask them if you can film them making the gesture

NEW: 2024 has just been confirmed as the warmest year on record, and the first to breach the 1.5C threshold.
We used a ridgeline (Joy Division inspired) chart to visualise daily temperature anomalies since 1940.
2024 clearly stands out with 100% of its days above 1.3C and 75% above 1.5C.

"It’s clear now that sexual assault is no longer a deal breaker for plum positions. It might even be a qualification. Two groups are to blame: the cadre of male influencers who harnessed a MeToo backlash, and the women who love and enable them."

People need to realize that trans people and disabled people are just the frontlines. If they can get the broad public comfortable sacrificing these groups, they’re not going to stop there
Fascists aren't just going after trans folks cause they hate trans ppl. They know for a fact that liberals won't risk anything real to protect trans ppl making it an easy way to legally accumulate power to use on everyone else. This is them sharpening their blade on them for y'all.

It was never about kids. It was always about hate (and hate’s more practical, tactical cousin, the ability to leverage those with a hypersensitive disgust response, already heavily correlative to conservative politics, in order to deepen political polarization).
1. The Republican Party's panic over Sarah McBride in a bathroom shows it was never about sports or kids.
They cannot help but to indulge in its cruelest impulses when a transgender person becomes an equal.
Now, Dems have an opportunity to flip the script.

Opinion: Republican Bathroom Panic Over McBride Shows It Was Never About Sports Or Kids
Republicans are in a frenzy over trans Congresswoman Sarah McBride, following a debate among Democrats about compromising on trans rights. Today’s events make clear the folly of such a decision.
