It won't. But it will cause pain and that's the point.

The cruel is all they’ve got. And they get off on it. It’s like a drug. 😡

Exactly. They enjoy causing pain. That lights them up. Pathetic

Erasing trans people hasn’t done that. We need to step it up.

It doesn't and Nancy Mace will still be lined up at various bathroom doors to see if she can detect "inappropriate bathroom use".🙄 🇷🇺MAGA have their panties in a wad=Christo fascism. Although they are small vocal minority everyone has to suffer their histrionics, non issues, be forced to comply🙄

And Kim Davis, who is taking this to the SC, has been married 4 times to 3 different men, and got pregnant by one man, while married to another . That alone should disqualify the case. The party of family values! Some animals are more faithful!

I got nothin'.

Maybe it will miraculously release the Epstein files?

I stand with the Truth!

It can't and it won't. But we both know that and anyone with a brain knows that. It's more fascist control that's all it is and we have to deny them of that at every opportunity and fight it back against it at every opportunity quite literally if need be and it's getting very much on the needy side

It won't. It'll only make the Christo fascists happy that they're shoving their values down everyone else's throats.

i would wager that almost everyone in congress will have a friend or family member this would hurt…and that the GOP would back it anyway. sad

Do we really think they care about schools, rent, groceries, or anything like that? They hate everything about America and want to destroy it and rule the ashes. That's it, full stop. This is the message every single politician needs to harp on. They want to wreck every single solitary thing.

I still want to know where the money to build a White House ballroom coming from!!

It won't, but the same ignorant MAGA trash that made trans athletes, of which there are TWLEVE in the entire goddamn NCAA, need to make hate a center of any campaign.

It will do none of those things, but it will make maggots feel smug and righteous and so they won't complain about those things.

They're just maximizing the cruelty

Those things are separate. If it is a positive for society, reds will obliterate it. The ultimate goal is to see us all dead or complacent.

It won’t but the coward in power will send the National Guard to D.C. but do nothing about gun violence in schools. Funny how much tougher and stronger our children are compared to the president. But when you are an unfit old man, the streets are scary.

GOP lives to take away our rights.

It won’t. .

This woman’s multiple marriages and adulterous behavior has zero impact on my life. Her hypocrisy and her personal “religious beliefs” could affect the lives of millions.

Wow, what a terrible life for everyone involved with this odious creep🤢 She has screwed up(literally!) her life 6 ways to Sunday Why does she get to be the face of bible-thumping zealots desperate to destroy the happiness of other people? She has broken too many biblical principles to count⁉️

No more gays means no more tornados and hurricanes sent from a vengeful god. Less money on disastrous relief.

It's all about hate, the key driving purpose of MAGA. Religion should probably best be kept as a private matter between consenting adults.

Its the opposite, then pour money into society, therefore they contribute, they contribute which helps school and the economy, in my humble opinion.

It won't, but late at night when they're humping the couch, it will be an aphrodesiac called "OWNING the Libs"

Still won't stop me from loving who I love

Republicans gotta keep their fundy base happy.

PROJECT 2025

It’s about allowing corporations to deny spousal benefits to workers. I believe it will affect common law marriages as well. Not about any moral compass or obligations.

It won't they're bigots stop treating this as though their is any good faith component to it if a dog was mauling people to death you wouldn't ask how mauling people to death fixes the cities parking problem becuse those things aren't related you'd hose the thing down with pepper spray to stop the

Mauling

So when do we officially start calling anyone on lgbtq+ refugees? And the USA gilead?

I more concerned about when other countries will start accepting us as refugees with protected status.

Apparently Jesus or somebody is the one who arbitrates this kind of shit? Which, you'd think he would do more for the children, but I dunno I really dunno

It won’t it’s just the republican way.

Only using Magic Markers. It would take forever with Sharpies.

This is only about proving they have the power to do anything they want, and the more you let them, the more they take.

It absolutely will not, leave these good people to live without anyone butting in. Why is it anyone's business who marries and who doesn't? Just another bunch of crap they are peddling!

Women still dont have body autonomy🤷🏽‍♀️

It is about cruelty and control just like Jesus apparently preaches these days. I long for the Jesus loves the little children times.

Well, that's just intuitively obvious.

If they kill enough people through inhumane policy rent will eventually go down. What's a school?

Well, some people (everybody except Trump's cronies) will have to make sacrifices so that Trump's cronies can abscond with all the nation's money. And you have to throw Trump's voters a shiny thing every now and then so they don't start asking questions.

"Violating her religious freedoms," she says, thereby admitting with her whole mouth that her practice of religion is centered around hurting others. If we had a working legal system, in order to prevail, Kimmy would have to prove that she, herself, was actually harmed by gay people marrying. If.

I wish I could. It seems like every day there's another nightmare scenario to face and that will no doubt be toppled by the next one tomorrow. We are in dire times.

MAGA is so filled with hate for anything different that they declared a war on love! ❤️ SMH

The bigoted, lying, corrupt GOP will do and say anything to eliminate other’s rights… And stuff more money in their pockets. They are blatant hypocrites.

We may not be trans, or immigrants, or in a same sex marriage, but the sooner they're done with those groups, the closer they are to coming after us.

It won't but it's another distraction from the fascism

And the pedophilia. You forgot the pedophilia

EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN EPSTEIN

And dont forget... EPSTEIN. DonOLD IS A PEDO.

Those damn eggs. 🥚

It's about the cruelty.

@papst-ny.bsky.social

As long as they have someone to hate unconditionally, most of them will gladly starve. I think it’s become one of their commandments.

Jess, the issue is NOT GAY Marriage! It is Legal marriage vs Religious marriage. If two people are denied legal marriage because of whom they choose to marry, then equal application of the law would render ALL MARRIAGES ILLEGAL. Except when marriage is determined by religious doctrine.

What will conservative LGBTQ do now? lol. Will they vote for their own interests now and support Democrats as they should've done from the beginning, or will they be the willing sacrifices for the MAGA cause?

If only talking to crazy MAGA Nazis wasn’t like talking to a brick. If only they had more brain power than a brick.

Well you see, when gay marriage is eliminated it will…

Jack and (Censored)!

Your logic and reasoning far exceeds the thought process of any republican. IMO 🤷🏻‍♂️

The explanation is simple: Because Trump is in the Epstein list and raped children.

Wait til they take away the weed.

Family values my ass.

All it does is enable Christo-fascism.

Distraction from Epstein and the terrible jobs report.

Oh, you want them to ban something that will help society? Sorry, they're too busy being complete Dicks who are trying to hurt people they feel shouldn't be treated equal. I wish these folks cancer of the ass and mouth.

That was never their plan, just rhetoric for the cult.

It won’t.

No, of course not.

It can’t. But they will lie to you

Or release the Epstein Files.

No

Sorry, I just don’t get it

100% !

Ask the Heritage Foundation They’ve got every fascist answer

It’s hard work coming up with them all

They work overtime at it

TCB every day

I was going to suggest referring the matter to Jeannie Pirro, but then she said she didn’t want to bore me with facts.

Something something something Jesus

Absolutely nothing. I don’t think it’s right but I’m not surprised.

It doesn’t. It’s just more cruelty.

Who someone loves and marries, be it voluntary and involving adults, is no one’s business but theirs alone. Religious zealots should give attention to what scripture has to say about “busybodies.”

Just another day folks

It won't. Just amti-gay.

When all the guys, trans, brown, black, Muslim, Hindi, and democrats leave the country, there will be far fewer people to feed and educate. The GOP plan is white only.

If only that were true, a mere secession plan would work. The 1% can't make unlimited money and pay slave wages in a MAGA only, full Gilead, women are trad wives, barefoot and pregnant, country. They need more mindless worker bees and living on credit consumers than that.

It will help some thrice divorced hobgoblin sleep at night by protecting the sanctity of marriage. 🫤

Can someone explain how what people do in their bedrooms is anyone's business but their own .... what sort of sex obsessed psychos are these religious nutters....

MurKKKa great again grunt

It doesn’t, but it plays well with the child molesting cohort of his base. The religious right.

well, you see, WOKE. Do you get it now?

It doesn't but it gives MAGAts someone to hate on. They need that.

🙄

They want to hurt us not help us. I thought they made that pretty clear.

Trump supporters don't care about any of those things. As long as brown people are being rounded up, everything else is fine.

He validates their racism, and that means more to them than anything. This is what they voted for

It won't. But it will make homophobes feel better about their shitty lives.

Considering that the woman around whom this case revolves is a 4 times married serial adulteress, I'd like to know how it's going to bolster "the sanctity of marriage."

Let’s ask miller cus he’s gay and he came up with the idea along with his friends at the heritage foundation.

Thank you

🤔

No.🙄

Unless you look great in purple may I recommend not holding your breath.

Nope

All fascists need a scapegoat. But I can't help but wonder why during all the millennia when all it took for people to be married was to declare themselves married, there was no such thing as gay marriage.

Here in England in the past they called themselves best friends and set up home together for ‘financial reasons’.

So there has never been a common law marriage of a same sex couple in England?

No idea, sorry. Never thought to google it.

When I Googled it in the past, same sex marriage disambiguated to same sex unions. Same sex marriage was unheard of until the end of the 20th century, and was only in the USA and Europe at that.

Because if we do that, God will grant us favor and there will be no more droughts, floods, wars, famines, earthquakes, crime and autism. Just like it was before gay marriage.

I’d like to know the same thing! It makes no sense. 🤦🏻‍♀️

It won’t distract from the pedo in the WH and the Epstein files he’s hiding.

Can someone explain how declaring war on LA, Chicago, NYC, and DC will make eggs and gas less expensive?

The hatred is the point.

Are they going to ban interracial marriage, too?

It won’t but it will keep maga distracted from their grumbling stomachs and dilapidated schools

Like detainees held without trial, it is the work of sadists .

Because Maga would rather live in a trailer park, and eat beans as long as they dont see men hugging in television commercials. #hatersbehatin

It is designed to allow people to vote their hate and prejudice b/c all government is corrupt and broken, so why not? The trans women and immigrants tried to warn you but we were told we were (checks notes) being hysterical and they wouldn’t go anywhere near gay marriage. Remember? Like a year ago?

They don’t care

It doesn't. We're being the scapegoat, again. If it isn't people of color, it's "the gays".

It won’t, but it will make the Christians feel better.

It will make hateful people feel better. Then they can find something else to hate once that wears off.

It won't.

Easy, it makes you forget about that other stuff. Like how not talking about problems makes them go away.

It was never about that. It's about Christo-fascists enforcing their deranged, twisted version of Christ's "Love" (pronounced hate) on all the people they're afraid of. This is all people who aren't them, including that weirdo who looks just like them who keeps showing up in so-called "mirrors"

Because owning the Libs.

They won't have to offer them family health insurance.

Them gays is takin are jerrbs. Or something. Also /s - just in case.

Seriously..right? It's disgusting and just shity..come on.

It won't👽

It's a way to isolate another group of Americans so they can be segregated from the society. It has nothing to do with lowering the cost of anything. It's about cruelty and bigotry.

The people who want to ban gay marriage could not care less if people can afford to eat and they strongly oppose education.

Dear reader, If you oppose marriage equality, remember that Adam's rib was composed of male DNA. Either Adam and Yves were the first male-male couple, or Eve was the first transexual. There are no other explanations. Your own bible advocates same-sex marriage. Maybe you can too.

If you really really really really believe something, and you're convinced God is on your side, who needs more proof than that?

No, because not one damn part of this shitstorm makes any sense.

Nothing plays better with that base then being cruel to their "perceived" enemies.

there is a religious element in their attack on the lgbtq community as their presence insinuates their infallible god makes mistakes & therefore these ppl must be liars, heathens and must be punished, they should be allowed no level of normal life like marriage or parenthood…possibly even employment

That's their lousy Invisible Man excuse to be a bigot.

whoomp

Took me a second to appreciate this. Now I have a song stuck in my head.

there it is

🎯

It won’t but it will make them feel good about hurting other people. It’s their purpose in life. Then they go to Church

Oh boy...did you just drop the realism. This is an unbelievably accurate description of my half sisters (one is much worse than the other. Separation by my moving halfway across the country has helped)

They learn that, “the gays are an abomination,” from church.

Definition of Priest. Peadophile Resident In Every Small Town. 🇮🇪

Then they go to Sunday brunch and to Walmart. That’s got to stop. No work on the Sabbath.

No wearing blended fabrics, eating shrimp etc either. Cherry pickers!

Or pork. No bacon. 🥓 oh no!!!! I think we should hang around the cold case they keep it in at the grocers, and ask them if they knew eating it will send you straight to Hell.

Yep youtu.be/9zaZrp_38xc?...

Sin all week, confess on Sunday, and all is good. Isn't that what the maga Christians say?

Epstein

Just passin time til the rapture

The chronically ignorant believe that nonsense because their leader tells them they will benefit. They don't need facts.

It will be used to justify taking things from them, like property. Same thing they are doing to Hispanics and have traditionally done to African Americans. Nazi’s did it to the Jews as well, but that point gets the right all triggered

No, the point is to take away any children they are raising, biological or otherwise. Those children will be placed in Evangelical families to be taught every day how evil their real parents were and how fortunate they are to have been "rescued". Absolutely the goal.

Both things are true

Religious people see children as property not people.

Property until your 18th birthday and still better be subservient. They fail to understand something about "honor your father and mother" which is that it is superseded in Jewish law by the overall mitzvah to stay alive and in *Christian* law by "love your neighbor as you love yourself" - which

incorporates the original. There is no obligation to honor a father and mother who mistreat you.

They also conveniently ignore the next line about parents not provoking your children to anger.

Right. And a parent who makes their kids mad with them...welp, if those kids don't then look after them in their old age, that's their own bed they made.

Conservative, Republican voters are famously "value" voters, they care about expressing their hatred for gay people much more than they care about woke, liberal, leftist, socialist welfare state objectives like good public schools, lower rents, affordable groceries.

He never meant any of that. This is the kill all the democrats administration.

It does nothing, just like banning abortion, transgender and soon women vote. It just makes the so-called evangelist Christians Maga happy 🖕👎

It’s a complex equation involving lots of imaginary numbers and statistics

Remind 'Christians' that their Bible says there are 100,000,000 angels all men........................... smile 😜

I’m old enough to remember when the GOP accused homosexuals of living deviant lifestyles in sex clubs and AIDS was their punishment. And so the gays got married. And now the GOP wants them to remain single, behind closed doors, back in the sex clubs so they can also secretly meet up with them.

Nope

Like governor Walz stated: “ mind your own damn business “!!!

An awful lot of folk don't want their own lives to be better. They just want other people's to be worse.

Yup, this is it in a nutshell. They don't care that their lives are shitty and they're suffering, so long as the people they hate suffer more.

What I can tell you is that the GOP does not actually care about funding schools or making groceries more affordable- those are just conceits to conceal their hate filled agenda. They care about authoritarianism and violence.

^Shhhh, you're supposed to think about the icky icky gay people, not how you're being fucked by the system^ Just to be clear, this is sarcasm

Because its Gay Marriages fault that the economy is terrible. Obviously. And we now live in a dystopian hellscape. That too.

You forgot the grave economic impacts of schools turning kids into sports playing trans cats that poop in litter boxes before being eaten by immigrants.

Ugh. How could I forget?! LOL We got some good jokeyjokes! Too bad they are ALL ON US.

It won’t, but that’s exactly how they keep them brainwashed and working against their own interests. All they have to do is feed those phobias. They can’t be reasoned with at that point because they’ve become locked into a pattern of that fear and hatred.

Gay people won’t give this up silently.

Easy…. When people get married they have a party ! Gays being classy would obviously serve tenderloin, less gay marriages means less demand for beef, therefore price will go down ;) #sarcasm

It won’t, but White Jesus will be thrilled. 🙄

It’s "I don’t like it and therefore it should be illegal" by people who don’t know how to mind their own business.

I would certainly like to hear that explanation.

Well, I could make up some crap to explain it but if I did, I'd be a Republican.

You have a good point

Can we ban straight marriage too? 🤣

Considering that they are trying to strip voting rights away from women who marry and change their names, and are trying to end no-fault divorce, they are going to make marriage so unpalatable it will fall out of favor altogether.

Can someone explain how building a $200 million golden ballroom for the felon will? FDT

We should imprison him in it, and MAKE him dance!

Spend the $200 MILLION on people that need it & make him dance in a cage match w musk

Because DEUS VULT?

🤣🤡🤣🤡🤣

Banning gay marriage will not fund schools or lower rent but it sure will help sanitize the Billionaires Gilded Age! Thank you for your attention to this matter!

Even if it magically did all of those things fuck that.

No all that stuff will be more expensive not because of gay marriage bans but because government did nothing about them. Next up restoring and funding every confederate monument ever taken down or damaged and not restored. Important work. The point is for you to suffer just a bit more than them.

No

Hopefully they will make a chart for that.

Waits for the Church to Comment 🤨

Ah yes, the key is you also need to put God back in the schools first. We'll have to lock him in tho cause he keeps escaping. Says it's dangerous in there.

We're fools if we think maga people ever gave a shit about that

Well...it won't. And as we all know they never had any intention of doing any of those things. This entire administration was always about making people suffer

He has no intention of doing any of those things bc he’s so homophobic n racist. He wants to eliminate “undesirables” n live in his white supremacy bubble. Everything was a lie to get votes. EPSTEIN, EPSTEIN, EPSTEIN! Watch this angry space 😡

#releasetheepsteinfiles

But when the food shortages start in earnest, the general population will already be primed for a scapegoat.

It doesn't. It just kicks millions of people off of shared healthcare plans and forces more people into wage-slavery.

It's all about hate & revenge and destroying the very fabric of this country.

White Christian nationalism. Hope that helps!

Trump first has to clean up what he hates before he concerns himself with trivial stuff.

Spent $76 at grocery store and didn't buy meat, fish or household products. Just some fruit, veggies, lunch in a box, pretzels, yogurt. No cookies, cake or desserts!

Actually no No one can Certainly, the illiterate corrupt kakistocracy regime occupying the WH, can NOT They can explain NOTHING in their 💩show And they have ZERO motivation to do so Opposition has left the building apparently The regime is laughing PS Trump raped children

It’s about cruelty the republicans specialize in it.

It won't but it might distract some folks from the fact that the president is a pedophile.

NO

It won’t. It’s all about cruelty.

It won’t, but it’s a distraction from the Epstein files and the economy that orange pedo on the roof is destroying. It thinks everyone is as dumb as maga.

It won't. It's just more authoritarian fascism.

It won't -- but it *will* give people something else to think about, besides the cost of living (and anyway, people they don't like are worse off).

The same way banning transgenders from girls’ sports, building a huge garish ballroom and playing golf 3 days a week

They have no other ideas

It certainly does nothing of the sort, but making others as miserable as they are is apparently the salve a lot of people use.

Good point. Granny often said of unhappy people, “misery loves company@.

👏👏👏👏👏

It doesn't, but it does make a lot of assholes feel justified in some way.

These miserable arseholes don’t care. If it doesn’t fit their narrative then it must go. They are just working down the list until they get to the non conforming white democratic people who will then be rounded up too. Truly a disturbing series of events.

There is no end to the chum required to lure and satisfy Magat addicts.

Not Really, But Trump, With His Usual 50 Blatant Lies, Will Convince Millions Of Low IQ, Faux News Educated Fools That It Will...Actual Facts Will Not Be Deployed Here....

I used to think that I was not very intelligent, until the trump voters came along!
