  • Looking at the numbers in 4 of the swing states, Kamala got more total votes in 2024 than Biden did in 2020, but so many rural voters just came out and voted for trump and against Kamal, so much so that in quite a few of the races Kamala lost but democrats in congress won their races, despite both running on functionally identical platforms.

    Sure Dems generally care less and suck because they don’t actually wield power when they have it but at least they’re not actively trying to kill the minority populations and drag us into a theocratic oligarchy to fulfill the Book of Revelations prophesies.

    I’d fucking love it if both political parties were trying to best represent their constituents. But they aren’t, and opining for something that doesn’t exist and has never existed isn’t going to do us any good. We work with the tools we have and the people we can to make the best of a shit situation. It that means backing dems because they’re not actively trying to kill minorities I’m gonna go with that on election day and do what I can to mitigate other kinds of damages.


  • It’s a moment of catharsis, its that drop of blood against a psychopathic group of people using their power and control to decide whether we get to live or die and mostly choose to let us die.

    At this point it feels like we’re in general are mostly out of options. Legislation hasn’t worked the ACA didn’t address the power health insurance companies have over us, voting with our wallet doesn’t work on an inelastic industry where every single person needs health care, the courts are bought out by these wealthy psychos.

    Either we just live with the current and keep dying unnecessarily or we use the last box of civic engagement.


  • life-altering drugs

    Such as…

    HRT is already basically never prescribed to prepubescent and early pubescent children, puberty blockers have been used for cisgendered children entering puberty too early for decades and is perfectly safe for them to take with few to no truly major life altering impacts. Trans minors under 18 already can’t get gender affirming surgery as laid out in the DSM-V.

    Be precise and descriptive in your language when arguing, nobody has the time or energy to cover every possibility when you vaguely allude to a number of potential talking points as a bullshit gotcha for the person who actually decided to engage with your bullshit in good faith.
