Which voters am I forcing out of the tent? I'm saying everyone who is against Trump is welcome. If your view is "no, not everyone whose against Trump is welcome, so I won't go in your tent," that's your call. Nobody is forcing that on you, smartypants.
LGBTQ people. We will not support a bigoted candidate who opposes our civil rights. You are forcing us out of the tent, despite the fact that we are a loyal voting block, to support a bigoted monster, all to appeal to reactionary centrists who will NEVER support you. You are forcing us out.
I'm not going to argue with somebody who isn't even trying to follow the discussion. Nobody is telling you to vote for Republicans. We're saying "stop shouting people down while they are arguing for your side."
If somebody gets on a soap box and says: "Trump Sucks" and you respond "Fuck you, you fucking bigot" you're supporting the destruction of our democracy. Congratulations on your purity.
Newsom got on his soapbox and said “Trump Sucks, but he’s rights about trans people!”, and we responded, “fuck you, you fucking bigot”. And by not condemning Newsom’s fascistic rhetoric, you are supporting the destruction of our democracy. Congratulations on your cruelty and hatred.
What? That is a bizarre accusation. No one is telling people to vote for republicans, you’re merely kicking us out of the Democratic tent in order to invite in reactionaries who don’t want to vote for you. Newsom is not arguing for my side. Newsom opposes civil rights for trans people.
again, nobody is kicking you out. Feel free to choose authoritarianism, but that fucking sucks
You kicked us out lol! You chose authoritarianism, and when we took issue with it, you told us to get lost. It really fucking sucks, but it’s not like it’s a surprise. We have always known that centrists like yourself will ALWAYS choose fascism over minorities and the left. Always.
you're really digging hard into "words don't mean what they actually mean" with "kicked out" here. I get it: for you, purity is more important than freedom. You've made that clear. Many LGBTQ+ folks are of course actual allies to anti-authoritarianism, and you've made a different choice.
Be prepared though, you're going to lose your rights a lot faster and more completely under authoritarianism that you would under democracy (as we're already seeing), where we could fight to have better politicians ONCE WE HAVE FREEDOM. But we don't currently live in an even semi-free country.
As I said, we are already prepared. We know that you will support fascism and abandon the rest of us. You are saying it here outright. We are getting another 4 years of Trump. It’s a done deal. You made your choice. On our end, we merely have to get as many people out of the country as possible
I'm literally on the side fighting fascism. You're saying you'll only fight fascism along side the fully pure. That's one of the reasons we are going to lose the fight against fascism. I don't blame you for leaving the country, esp. bc you're actually not willing to fight for it. It makes sense.
Yeah, you have the privilege of having healthcare and not being banned from public spaces. Trans people don’t. While you can go to Newsom press conferences, families with trans kids have to flee the country to get basic healthcare so that their kids don’t die.
No you’re not. You’re supporting Newsom. That’s supporting fascism. I don’t need someone to be fully pure. I just need them to not be a fascist. The fact that non-fascist is considered “unattainable purity” these days shows how sad a state of affairs we are in.
Not just many, MOST of us are actual allies of anti-authoritarianism. Why do you think we are so adamant about criticizing Newsom glazers? You made the choice to oppose us and support authoritarianism. That’s always how it goes. Basic civil rights is not “purity”. This is fascist rhetoric.
