I don’t think it requires postulating 12d chess. Releasing the files minus any bits that might incriminate Trump is barely even checkers. What baffles me is why they fought it so hard first.
As for what’s going to happen now, in this most unhinged of timelines, I would not dare to guess😅

Because not everyone has the options to be able to boycott multiple major retailers indefinitely.
But if you can’t, maybe you can still participate in blackout days enough to make a dent in someone’s graph.

Para-antisocial relationships?🤔

Sounds fake to me😛
I can understand deciding that you can no longer be in a relationship with someone, but I have never STOPPED LOVING anyone or anything in my entire life.
The idea is nonsensical to me.

Would this make the whole argument about where Obama was born completely moot?

Quick research suggests that the requirement for running for president is being a “natural born citizen”, which includes either being born on U.S. soil or being born to a parent who is a U.S. citizen at the time of your birth.

As a cis woman (and a competitive fencer, in my wellspent youth), I find the presuppositions inherent in the "letting trans women play in women's sports is unfair to [cis] women athletes" argument insulting and annoying.
