    I dunno if you have payed attention to politics recently but “we need to exterminate the trans agenda and the people who spread it” ain’t exactly anyone misconstruing what those people have been saying

        I’m not sure you know this, but housing is a NEED, and making it a tradable commodity that is affected by market trends tends to harm more people than it serves

          You’re right, I guess we should also murder shop owners, pharmacy owners, clothing production owners, prostitutes, even councils who charge for toilet usage, self-help gurus, artists… All people who provide needs that are affected by market trends.

            You will not die without most those things, and the things you would are either currently being hoarded and killing people (shop owners destroying edible food to increase margins, pharmaceutical companies gouging for AIDS medication, insulin, etc), or cannot effectively hoarded (bathrooms, scam artistry, regular art).

        Loud liberals on TikTok are not elected officials

        There are 496 bills that are introduced to state legislatures all the way to passed in the united states, spanning every state

        Loud liberals are saying illogical, irrational things loudly on a social media app

        13 states have laws that specify trans people being murdered is not a crime if the murderer thought they were cis

        People not in power in any part of the 3 branches of government said something mean

        In a majority of states, trans individuals can be removed from/denied employment, housing, state assistance, medical care, or virtually anything involving a contract

        Just because some people were mean in your direction does not mean that they have any meaningful power, and the people being handwaved off that actually have political power are actually doing the things that people are saying they’re doing

            Democrats suck, and they have always sucked, its a given. Not new, not controversial. Conservatives, especially the non-Trumpers, have absolutely no qualms with allying themselves WITH Trump because it’s an ideology founded on greediness and spite. Conservatives will ALWAYS fall in line with even their political disagreements if it means they get to commit violence on those they dislike, strengthen hierarchies, or try to enact their weird palingenesis
