Trump isn’t adding to his base either. a lot of independent voters think Trump is corrupt. he is not very popular outside of his base. Biden’s strategy is run on anger at the abortion decision and “saving democracy” which might be enough to put him across the finish line but it should be a blow out for democrats if someone who wasn’t Biden was running against him.
She doesn’t though. People in the US openly talk about sex online a lot (even in front of children) but she only goes after queer people and allies saying queer people should be allowed to exist.
Pride took out the Kink Castle and we will take you out next
I think they’re trying to get out ahead of the Alphabet union.
idk about this. Following this logic a cis het dude into feet or BDSM would be queer and I don’t think they should count bc they aren’t being discriminated against the way a LGBT person is. I do think there’s certain kinks/ways cis het people could be considered queer but I think this definition obscures why Pride exists to begin with.
I think part of queerness is not fitting in traditional gender and/or sexuality roles. Like is the libs of Tiktok lady coming after y’all just for existing?
I’m not hating on y’all and you’re definitely welcome at Pride imo but it feels weird to say everyone who has a kink is queer when kinks are so normalized that it would basically mean everyone is queer at that point. I also feel like that definition makes things weird for asexual people (who definitely are a part of the community bc they do face similar discrimination and marginalization.)
I hate this discourse but seeing it pop up on Reddit several years ago made me delete my account so I should thank it too
this is partially why people in rural areas end up being so conservative to begin with. when the government doesn’t do anything but lecture you about how good you have it while the Republicans are giving some explanation for why things suck for you (even if it’s wildly reactionary and clearly wrong), you’re probably gonna end up right wing since the fundamental right wing premise that government doesn’t work seems true when the government never works for your benefit.
I live grew up in rural Missouri and if they did something like that here, the democrats would flip the state. rural voters are starving for the government to do ANYTHING to help them. even the DNC special where whatever is means tested to shit would go a long way to improving Biden’s performance in rural areas but nope, we can’t do that, we gotta waste a bunch of money on ads people are gonna ignore instead.
It’s all very predictable and another 4 years of Biden won’t prevent these things happening, just prolong them and probably make it worse somehow by bottling it up for longer.
it would likely manufacture consent for these things happening much like it has manufactured consent for libs to want stricter border laws and mass surveillance.
Is it? campus protests are spreading all over the country so it’s rapidly getting to the point where a lot of young people at least know people who were at the protests and seeing the Democrats crack down on them looks just as bad as project 2025 (which also the Democrats don’t really bring up that often IRL so many don’t even know what it is.)

now?
it always has been. hippies are a chud subculture.
mr bazinga, stop being a twerp
i keep thinking this is a documentary about ska and get disappointed that it’s not but i’ve heard it’s sick.
that would require americans to stop thinking war is cool though and we have a lot of movies made specifically to stop that from happening.
I know you’re doing a bit but it’s so funny that everyone who’s said that to me IRL is a cis het person. The thing is, it wouldn’t even matter if I did vote Biden bc our state party is an absolute joke. The DSA chapter I used to co-chair was bigger than the local democrats were and we weren’t a very big chapter to begin with.
I live in Missouri and I’m just posting to remind y’all my last Democratic Senator, Claire McCaskill blamed Democrats “caring too much” about trans rights for the party not winning enough seats in Congress in 2020 and the Democratic Senate candidate after that didn’t even mention queer people on her website until a few weeks before the election. it’s so rough here unless you’re cishet.
Andrew Bailey also is famous in this state for suing every school that tried to protect kids from covid.
That’s why they still do it. It’s great as propaganda bc the people most likely to answer are the people who are most likely to be well off enough to not have to worry about bill collectors. A lot of modern polling outfits are less interested in figuring out what people think and more interested in generating data that backs up the policies of whoever is paying them. It’s the same reason a lot of them use biased language for the polling questions.
lol they wish women were around them to correct
The trolley problem makes sense in the context it was developed for, which is to be an ethical thought experiment. It’s got nothing to do with politics unless you’re just a lazy thinker (which Biden fans pretty much are.)
