    Watch LGBTQ+ people get genocided right here in America because lefties decided not to vote against Fascism. Remind us again that you didn’t vote against it when that happens and see how people react.

      Conservative with a gun

      LGBTQ dead body

      Liberal: “Leftists did this. Now vote for me so I can pardon the conservative.”

      Watch LGBTQ+ people get genocided

      We’re armed, although liberals are doing everything they can to prevent it.

      Red states are expanding their 2A rights while blue states limit their own. You have fascist militias popping up all over the place and what legislation do you think will disarm them? That cat is out of the bag. Us ‘lefties’ understand that Jon Stewart is not going to show up and save us with a witty quip when some christian nationalist has us on our knees in front of a ditch.

      There may come a time we’ll all wish we had access to non-nerfed rifles and normal capacity magazines. Liberals are doing nothing productive to deal with this rise of fascism.

      I’ll be voting democrat, but let’s not pretend that voting republican light is going to defeat christofascism.

      This is a painful argument because this whole protest vote issue revolves entirely around the refusal to take the political risk of acknowledging or trying to stop a genocide.

      Yeah! And watch immigrants and migrants get deported en mass and draconian fascist law be implemented at the border…oh, what? That was Democrats too? Damn…

      Well uh…bodily autonomy? No, dems had a chance to legislate that under Obama and refused to do so.

      Hm…

      Campaign finance reform? Oh, nope, they take the same corporate money.

        You still have to acknowledge that democrats aren’t going to be the party leading the genocide of LGBTQ+ people.

        It’s one thing to say you don’t have faith in them protecting you. It’s another thing to clear the way for the party that actively wants to harm you by not throwing in with the only other party big enough to hold them back.

        It’s not a pretty decision. But reality isn’t pretty.

        Look at America under the ruling and cultural elite today: Inflation is ravaging family budgets, drug overdose deaths continue to escalate, and children suffer the toxic normalization of transgender- ism with drag queens and pornography invading their school libraries.

        Project 2025 Mandate to Leadership. Page 1. Paragraph 2.

        They want to barr transgender persons from the military again. Page 104.

        The next HHS secretary should immediately put an end to the department’s foray into woke transgen- der activism.

        Page 284. They also want CMS (center for Medicare services) to make a national coverage decision citing gender-reaffirming surgery as dangerous. Which has downstream repercussions to medicaid and private insurance. (That’s on page 474).

        They want to cock-block Bostick, the ruling which extended sexual discrimination protections for transgender persons. (page 584).

        Make no mistake. Transgenders are our conservatives Jews. You could replace “transgender”, “gay”, “LGBT”, “homosexual” etc in that document with “jew”, you’d swear it was written 90 years ago in Germany.

          Witholding medicade is genocide?

          Like fuck, Project 2025 is fascism and an existential threat to more than just LGBTQ+ individuals, but these arguments that reference witholding funding from programs as Holocaustic minimizes genocide and the threat of fascism alike.

            This isn’t just about withholding Medicaid. They are also banning healthcare in half of the states for transgender minors, at one of the most critical times in their lives, even though they know this has a high potential of leading to more suicides amongst trans youth. Yes. It’s genocide.
