I once overheard someone getting annoyed with his friend on the train and instead of saying “you’re getting on my tits” or “you’re pissing me off,” he said “you’re burning my crumpets” (and I will not rest until this becomes a common expression)

Take transphobia. While a pervasive cultural force, Rs have been repeatedly punished electorally for going all in. The VALUE of transphobia to Trump’s coalition is the CROSSOVER appeal to TERFs and other liberals who made transphobia their whole personality. It gives them “feminist” cover and cred.
