The Democratic Party's favorability rating is in the toilet even in a time when the other party is full of literal fascists precisely because of this kind of naked cowardice and corruption.

You need to understand that this law says ONLY PEOPLE WITH GENDER DYSPHORIA can't get hormone therapy, chest reduction surgery, etc. Two sets of rules: one for people with dysphoria, one for everyone else. And the Supreme Court says "That's not anti-trans discrimination."

I’m trying not to say something that will make an ICE van pull up outside my house but a sadistic, murderous death cult has seized power in America. These animals need to go.

I find this sinister, because euphemisms like “unalived” are part of a broader dumbing down of language. Orwell warned about “narrowing the range of thought” in 1984: “We shall make thoughtcrime literally impossible, because there shall be no words in which to express it.”

Ladies don’t wear a ponytail to go running and always hold your keys between your fingers in a parking garage and never wear headphones but if a masked man tells you to get in his van you’d better comply if he says he’s ICE.

so I hadn’t heard about this case until today, but the long/short is a gaggle of alcoholic cops killed their buddy, tried to make his girlfriend a patsy, but failed because they made a bunch of Casey Anthony google searches like “how quickly can someone freeze to death?”

there was a story 3 weeks ago about about a butch lesbian who went into the womens bathroom, the cops were called on her and she got beat up. this trans panic is as much about hating trans peoples existence as it is about enforcing traditional gender roles upon society

Had to look up who this is...an interior designer from Bravo TV doing better political analysis than like 3/4 of the political media who refuses to call a spade a spade. Sad.

a big, big, big obstacle to police reform are police unions. police unions are, effectively gangs and occasionally terrorists groups. any genuine police reform can only occur after police unions are either eliminated or kneecapped to the point where they’re effectively neutered.

Sigh. This fcking guy. Trump has been very consistent through both this words and actions about being more militaristic/belligerent towards Iran/supportive of Israel (see: leaving the JCPOA, assassinating Soleimani) and people like Tyler heard what they wanted.

Beyond disappointing. People think Democrats don’t stand for anything because of this shit. You can’t scream from the rooftops about Trump’s crimes and then endorse a corrupt sex pest who abused his office.

That Clyburn thinks Andrew Cuomo is part of the future of the Democratic Party - and points to his character!!! — is the problem with the current Democratic Party leadership in a nutshell.

I still don’t understand why no one is talking about Brandon fucking Scott. He is obviously the best example of a progressive becoming an effective mayor.

I can get disliking Zohran’s politics but actively endorsing (and campaigning for) someone who resigned in disgrace for sexually harassing nearly a dozen women is just embarrassing man… Like just endorse Adrienne and be done with it
