    As a queer person, this is really offensive. You realize that a large part of my opinion is formed by my queer identity, right?

    Dems have done absolutely jack shit in my state to fight the slew of anti-trans and anti-gay bills passed by our legislature. They’ve done almost nothing at the federal level, and there was actually talk about letting Republicans push anti-trans legislation so that they could “just get a budget passed”. So yea, while my trans siblings are sitting here suffering and the Dems go “well I’m not sure about trans rights”, you might excuse my frustration and anger at the party that flies the rainbow flag and then turns the other way when we get fucked.

      As opposed to the party actively doing the fucking.

      But please tell us more about why we should be angrier at the dems for shit the republicans are doing.

      I’m sure all that consent you manufacture for letting the republicans win again will definitely get you labeled one of the good ones when they start making lists.

        Lol right? “My red state does fucked up shit! Why won’t the Dems stop it? I won’t vote for them, then!”

        Fucking morons.
