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.

I am finding it quite unbearable to watch Sarah McBride bear the grotesque attack of her colleagues with so much grace. I know it is what we have been taught to expect of trailblazers, but I am increasingly struggling to accept this.

With the news that Trump is planning to declare a national emergency and use the military to enact mass deportations, I want to remind everyone that this is also part of the plan to denaturalize American-born citizens, by declaring them to be part of an invading force. 1of2

The idea that you *must* coexist with and listen to people who are cruel, unjust, and just plain unpleasant to be around is the logic of abusers, by the way

Trump's army of social vigilantes are coming for payback
For four years, disciples of MAGA have been waiting for this moment, stewing on the need for social and political retribution. The wait is over—and we need to be ready.

As I've tried to tell people who've fretted that Bluesky is some kind of sequestered space of like-minded folks (obviously, it's not), people who vehemently disagree with us will come here in droves. They want to be where we are. The right cannot stay away. They want our attention & outrage so bad.

Indeed. When they rounded up the Japanese Americans, myself and my family included, for internment during WWII out of fear over Japanese spies and saboteurs, two thirds of us were U.S. citizens.

Don’t think it won’t happen again when they come for the “undocumented.”
