Too little far too late. So much damage has already been done and with these ghouls representing the opposition best case scenario we have a possibility of maybe fixing 5% of it several years from now as long as they don't let it get worse which they absolutely will

I mean.. really boils down the essence of what the DEMS postelection have to offer doesn't it How much voter confidence do these rubes think they inspire when they turn to potential voters to debate which rights or minority groups need to be sacrificed to attract the moderate fascist vote

If no one really cared about trans rights this conversation wouldn't be happening Newsom wouldn't be talking about it There wouldn't this concerted effort to sell us on the importance of finding middle ground with demagoguery CLEARLY trans rights matter to the people DEMs need to win elections
Mikey Johnston (@mikeyjohnston.bsky.social) reply parent
Seriously the incessant demand by DEMs to be rewarded for being the second worse person in the room is really fucking galling
Mikey Johnston (@mikeyjohnston.bsky.social) reply parent
The GOP knows they can rely on DEMs to be actively hostile to the very people they need to win elections The expectation DEMs have of the electorate is to unquestioningly supply votes and to otherwise shut up and expect nothing The "unrealistic purity test" is coming from the party establishment

I know a lot of people are stressed out right now. That's why I'm offering Facetime guided meditation sessions where you close your eyes and I describe a nonexistent 1995 film called "The Beastie Boys Movie." The plot is rudimentary but I tell you about all the celebrity cameos and stuff. $200/hour.

The framing of the article clearly isn't presenting this information as a way to highlight the struggle of those with diverse backgrounds when presented with such scenarios. This is clearly an attempt to imply Mamdani had nefarious intentions

This looks like bribery in plain sight. Paramount folded at the same time it needs Trump's approval for a billion-dollar merger. I’m calling for an investigation into whether any anti-bribery laws were broken, and I'm working on a new bill to rein in this kind of corruption.
