I will never be convinced that following the rules and winning polite arguments is effective politics when these fucking people openly conspired with midwit Atlantic writers and shot Bud Lite cans until an entire group of people was put back into society's box of untouchables.
Following the rules when the situation has gone off the rails is the way the complicit comply with fascism while still pretending they didn't take part.
Threatening to bomb children's hospitals and hunting down every social media post by a trans person until they receive so many death threats they delete their account is how rational adult politics is actually done in this hellhole, apparently.
