They didn't just bend the knee...they helped give him the crown.

But how would that help him be the world's first trillionaire?

He's halfway there already. Surely that will make him more loved than feeding a bunch of poor people nobody's ever even heard of.

When you're rich enough, you don't have to be.

He has zero incentive to have a single redeeming quality.
January 3, 2025 at 3:32 AM
Well yeah, but that's because you don't have a black hole where your self-esteem should be.
January 3, 2025 at 3:15 AM
I think you answered your own question.

Why go to a lot of effort when there are zero consequences? He does the bare minimum to give cover to for his gobknobblers.

There's always a grift.

"And even with all of Dominique’s tape, showing us exactly who did exactly what, the majority still had the gall to say they weren’t responsible, revealing a fundamental belief that their feelings about a sexual encounter should define what it was — never mind what the woman wanted."

Which is why it would be great if we stopped voting for the ones who specifically promise to cause the problems.
December 18, 2024 at 6:31 AM
Because that's how privatization works.

Kill off the public sector, and we become reliant on sociopathic billionaires for our needs.

Here, lemme predict their reply:

(Fingers in ears) "Nuh-uhhh!"
December 16, 2024 at 9:41 PM
Please do. I'd love to understand the distinction as you see it.
December 16, 2024 at 5:10 AM
I mean...the easiest way to do it would be for right-wing governments to strip away our rights and criminalize our existence.

Why go through the complex shenanigans you're talking about?
December 16, 2024 at 5:09 AM
The right is going to do what they always do, though—target vulnerable minorities in their culture wars to rile up their base to convince them to vote against their interests. We are but the current iteration of that.

daytime talk TV, and have been the subject of "shocking" or "disgusting" reveals in various movies for decades.

The proliferation of more nuanced identities haven't brought any additional harm to us at all. If anything, they've raised awareness of and support for a human condition shared by many.

the existence of trans men.

The backlash we're seeing now is based solely in the fact that they lost the fight on gay marriage and needed a new target.

And it's not like trans people were particularly well received before this modern era. We've been the butt of jokes, the topic of "scandalous"
December 16, 2024 at 4:58 AM
I genuinely fail to see how their arguments would be any different than they are now. And as we've seen for a while, their arguments don't even need to be based in reality. They have a caricature in their heads of what a trans person is, and they call it "a man in a dress." Very few even acknowledge
December 16, 2024 at 4:56 AM
The right has many arguments against trans people. Very few of them have anything to do with a person's relationship with dysphoria.

Transphobes have hurled a lot at me, a binary, fully transitioned trans woman, calling me a "man" and accusing me of all sorts of horrible things just for existing.
December 16, 2024 at 4:53 AM
We're very much in a period of "Revenge of the Patriarchy."

So many people are going to suffer from this...which is exactly what they wanted in the first place.
December 15, 2024 at 5:53 AM
It's a shame. I think you have a right to be angry, but I think you're aiming it at the wrong people.

I also think you've absorbed the harmful things transphobes have said about us and are now turning it on other trans people.
December 15, 2024 at 3:42 AM
Well that's certainly hurtful to hear. I don't agree with that at all.
December 15, 2024 at 3:39 AM
What's the matter, you don't like spending time with other "race realists"?

One sympathizes.
December 15, 2024 at 3:28 AM
Aw, no one to play with on twitter anymore? :(
December 15, 2024 at 3:21 AM
I think it's fair to interpret what I just wrote as a "yes," along with my reasoning for it.

I'm sorry if a more nuanced response is unacceptable and you feel like you need to block me for that.
December 15, 2024 at 3:06 AM
I happen to fit more in the binary, but that doesn't mean I assume every other person will have the same experience.
