AOC is not the solution. She's shown you she is unreliable. We have plenty of those over here too. They start in grassroots, and then become part of the firm.
I think it’s funny that so many people outside of the US are telling me who to support like y’all know more than I do. I fucking live here?? Have you ever run for office in the US? Have you ever voted in the US?
I'm not telling you to do anything. And whether I live in the US or not is irrelevant. AOC has sold out before, if she does it again, you were warned. That's my point.
Okay who are some grassroots politicians we should follow or support? Is there anyone running at the moment? I know about Zohan. We need more than just him though
I don't know specifically what's going on in grassroots in US, you are in a better position to work that out. But whichever country you are in, got to be vigilant as left/progressives once in the institutions they sell out. It happens very often, and it's a big problem.
Okay well I’m going to work with what we’ve got. I really don’t give a shit about the Nancy Pelosi stuff. Until someone better comes along, I’m sticking with AOC and Bernie
It's beyond invigorating to see her go from dark horse, secondary supporting cast member (in regards to the party) to staggering favorite to lead the entire side of the aisle going forward.
Seeing her get a crowd of 11,000 fucking people, 5.5x more than they expected, in a GOP district is like 2015 and 2020 Bernie all over again (in a good way)
Considering how bad things have been for us politically, things are really lining up for leftists (at least on economic policy) to do very well in the next four years
Maybe I’m delusional, but that’s how I see it
"If you are Palestinian we will though because we continue to call Hamas a terrorist organization despite them actually being the democratically elected leaders of Gaza since 2006 because the US and Israel can't leave people the f alone"
Except the guy she’s sharing the stage with literally just blamed us for losing the election for dare protecting our rights, esp the rights of trans folks who are under full attack from the other side.
What a concept: Show them what we stand for. Yes, it does not poll as the top issue, but respect for people regardless of sexual orientation, race, or creed is a fundamental tenet of a free, caring, and compassionate society.
If Democrats have power, Republicans can't fire government workers for being gay. Republicans can't erase their history from government websites. And Republicans can't kick trans people out of the military.
There are Democrats *right now* talking about jettisoning support for the trans community to gain votes. They will not suddenly pivot to being pro-trans once in office. No one ever has.
Without a word, AOC’s ‘Fight Oligarchy’ tour highlights GOP & business fear of Musk’s money. Courts aside, only WSJ & NYPost challenged Trump admin actions. The message resonates strongly with the public, particularly in swing districts and Republican-held areas. Dem leadership - get off the mat!
We don’t need to leave anybody behind and still have a platform that addresses rural and urban poverty. Our focus needs to be quality of life for everybody.
Beyond talking, campaigning, and policy (which she has been active on), what are you expecting her to do? From what I've seen she's doing as much as she can as a politician
CORRECTION: If you are an LGBTQ kid or family, we cannot throw you under the Tesla Cyberjunk in order to win an election. In this house, we stand together
The only ones butthurt are those who are sooo incredibly insecure about their own sexuality or gender I call it ✨projection✨
A chunk of these people r actually DEEP in the closet to the point of self loathing just look at what happened to Grindr when the republican convention was going->it crashed.
My youngest daughter is now 28. I was not allowed to be on her birth certificate until she was 7yrs old. The thought of not being her Mom “legally” breaks my fucking heart!💔 But the HATE the MAGA/GOP spread on a daily basis fucking infuriates me!!!🤬
As the parent of a 20-something trans college student, for the love of all Americans keep trans rights out of the spotlight. The only way to protect trans Americans is for sensible people to prevail.
There are 600 anti-trans bills across the country. We're on the last step of genocide before the camps start. 2024 will probably be looked back on as the last meaningful election in the US for decades. Your child is already a target. Spend your energy worrying about how you're going to get them out.
That’s my thing. Even removing the ethics from it and the moral from it, even if you’re the world’s shittiest, least empathetic person, SURELY EVEN THE SELFISH OPTION HERE IS THE SAME ONE?!?!
You’re so close to getting it:
Men redefining women to the detriment of women and without the consent of women isn’t right.
It’s not right.
You do need to walk away from it.
The only men defining women are MAGA men insisting they are the only ones who get to define women because God forbid women not be a monolith, and define ourselves and in more than 3 (objectively inaccurate) words. You don’t have the vocab for the convo, which is why you fall for their obvious lies.
In a sense. Trans women and men exist! Trans people deserve the same human rights as everyone. But they are a different group, with their own shared experiences, to actual women with their shared lived experiences.
Bingo because the oligarchs know the only way they can win is to divide and conquer (oldest trick in the book).
Remember it’s not the powerless destroying your life or world, it’s the powerful who are more than happy to cut your SS cheques in order to get themselves another tax cut!
The fight against President Musk (and Kennedy Center chairman Trump) is just starting. We’re mobilizing to show the strength of our movement. Together, we have the power to stop MAGA’s takeover. https://app.sosha.ai/s/8uulzGtp
It’s maddening.
You’d think she didn’t exist.
Kamala was ranked one of the most progressive senators by roll call votes. The only person who voted more progressively was Warren (not Bernie).
I agree. I loved all her policies and think she would have turned a lot around. The housing policies and stopping price gouging - chefs kiss! But I heard why she didn’t win when I phonebanked. And what we are seeing now makes it obvious.
I don’t see where her message gets anymore votes in any states other than NY or California. Democrats already have those 2 states. She’s wasting her time.
As they are the 2 most active politicians out there right now for the people, and I include all Republicans who are busy keeping their heads down and away from town halls, I believe they are doing more for the country than anyone else ATM. Until we get Luigi 2.0 that is.
Thanks, AOC. U continue to use your voice, which great! But the LGBTQ have already been thrown under the bus. What are doing now to change this and protect them?
Alexandria is creating an incredible legacy. She defines what history is made of. Her integrity, humanity & passion are exactly what America needs. A WOMAN, is going to lead the change that we need. RBG would be so proud!!!
Im convinced the strike is our answer. 3.5% of the population needs to go on strike. I don’t want to hear any excuses about only 2 PTO days or no vacation etc. Saving democracy isn’t designed to be easy. When we all stop working we show them we outnumber him and WE THE PEOPLE won’t put up with him.
I agree let people figure out what makes life worth living for them. 🤷♂️ Your always gonna have different variations we should just accept each other without judgment.
I understand your point with the comic but saying that we can’t discuss or change things even the tiniest bit because then it’s a slippery slope to hell is not constructive.
Yes, we should definitely sell the human rights of our fellow human beings just because it satisfies our selfish agendum. As long as I am not hurt, it's okay, right?
I think you know that’s not what I said. Could we focus on the actual issue instead whether it’s fair or not for transgender women to compete in women’s sports?
Discussing this topic isn’t the same as denying anyone their human rights.
it is though, because this whole "trans people in sports" discussion was created by people who know they're lying.
There's only 5 trans women in high school girls' teams.
If it were truly a gigantic advantage, there would be way more, but it's bullshit.
any time you start arguing about "trans people in sports" as if it's an actual topic of discussion, you are giving it credence and making it seem like an actual argument, instead of the thinly disguised bullshit it is.
You give conservatives an inch, next they will take a mile. I am not willing to sacrifice my trans and gay compatriots' lives just to appease to some centrists and moderates who throw around the word 'woke' without knowing what it means.
1.4 girls out of 100 athletes are trans.0.008% trans women participate in collegiate sports. That means number of trans NCAA athletes can't excede 1000 nationwide. And you fucks wanted even more!?
You sacrificed the rights of an entire group of human beings for this. You helped the maga vilify them.
All this for what? So that you could relate to your conservative beer buddies at the bar. So that you could agree with the disinformation your favorite Alpha-manosphere, military brocaster dishes out every week? Now your using the rhetoric of 'purity tests' to hide your internalized ignorance?
It is a lesson in moral panic policy making and political opportunism. Anti-trans policies increase the surveillance and harassment that all women athletes are subject to
Why do you bring up her being from an LGTBQ family? What does that have to do with her intelligence, sound policies, and ability to lead the country out of this authoritarian mess of a government? You, of all people, should know this.
Am Blocking this poster and suggest anyone do the same who is interested in human rights and not in throwing the Ts under the bus in the vain hope that the LGBs will be spared once the Ts are disappeared.
It's LGBTQ+ all the way -- or assuredly we shall all hang separately.
I suspect it was an automatic label based on some kind of content analysis, rather than a person slapping a label on your post. Might be able to get it changed?
I've tried. It's impossible to send a request through the app, I fill out the form and then it says fail to send. I sent an email and I got...crickets. No reply. It's like screaming into a void.
If they're slapping on labels and not allowing for error, they might as well just leave it up to us.
The "Talkie Toaster" was a gag on the old UK sci fi TV show "Red Dwarf"
It was an irritating AI device with a grilled bread product obsession. It COULD talk existential philosophy ... but it would always bring it around again to offering some kind of grilled bread product.
We simply want isolated lgbtq children to survive. Weird to get opposition on this issue.
No one on the outside even attempted to hold me back when I panicked about losing loved ones..... before i realized that peace is better than making family/ friends happy about my existence.
Philadelphia coming through!!!! There is now an official flyer for Orange Turd's visit to attend the NCAA Wrestling championship this weekend! 🙌 Everyone show up and Turn up!
🐻 with me!
Maybe Trump is a necessary evil and what is required by the US.
For the Dem Party to be the party of the people, in the image of AOC, Bernie, Crockett, Salwell, Murphy … this may be the catalyst.
Not to be the party of the Billionaire classes, promoted by the Clintons, Pelosi, Schumer …
Excuse me, but politicians fighting for the rights of lgbtq people is not taking an extreme position it is being a good leader who helps ALL of their constituents.
I live in PA and received very few mailers from Democrats, and the ones I did get didn’t mention trans people at all. The ads courted anti-Trump conservatives - Harris and Walz talking about their guns, trotting out the Cheneys, etc. Trump’s ads featured fear-mongering about trans people, though.
They won’t. Schumer said we need to work with them in the hopes they’ll work with us, knowing that has never been a winning strategy. My senator, Fetterman, has decided he’s more conservative and supports genocide. He’s ignoring the people who elected him.
They don’t care. They’re getting paid.
Allowing maga to own messaging on the two trans athletes in the country and you so called Palestinian protestors who dishonored our sacred spaces and attacked our elders will never learn even while those leopards continue eating ur faces.
Ur analysis is asinine and ur hypocrisy as vile as magats
Hey, @aoc.bsky.social we will hold you to that promise because many members of Congress will gladly abandon my family, my CHILDREN, for an chance to cement their power.
No, it wasn’t the whole party. It was 10 democrats who voted for the continuing resolution & are catching hell for it. It’s not a complete spending bill but a CR to keep the gov open for 6 months. I get why they did it but most of us agree they shouldn’t have & are vociferously letting them know
We’re with you…We The People means All of us, All People. Keep your heads up High where they belong and know that despite this Horrific time we live in, you are Loved, Valued and Supported 🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️⚧️🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈🏳️🌈
But if you win the election then you could actually help them. Continue to make LGBT and illegal immigration the central Party message and see how bigly Democrats continue to lose — and by extension the LGBT community loses.
They spoke about changing tax law to reduce burden on middle class
They talked about creating jobs
They talked about removing the burden of paying for at home or nursing care for the elderly from children
They painted *Joe Biden* as a radical socialist. They said the same about *Bill Clinton*. You will never win by catering to a fox viewer. And you only make bodies if you try
Honestly if you're a Democrat you need to put up or shut up. I'm not going to be on their side just because they virtue signaled to me anymore. Show me action and fight for me. Give me a reason to trust you besides hollow words.
Her statements were updated twice because NOTUS twisted them completely out of context. Unfortunately they have made little effort in ensuring people are aware of the changes & haven't retracted their erroneous reporting.
Appreciate that. Just read it before you sent. Jesus. I know she's in a tough spot and all(I'm being as generous as I can) but damn please maybe pick a single fight just once idk
Nah, she's a petit bourgeois genocidal ghoul who wants us to shovel more money at a fascist apartheid state to kill more children while she gets to be the Congressional Dem's pet tranny signing off on throwing us all under the bus in ways that will never materially affect her, no pity for her.
I agree…. However….
Headline said Biden threw trans under a bus.
He signed a bill to give a raise to 800k military - possibly last one they will get. Bill had unenforceable vague rider about trans health that could only affect 0.01% of military minor dependents.
It's pretty minor unless you're an LGBT kid and looked to the Democrats to have some hope for a better world. To see bipartisan agreement, however minor, that you're an acceptable sacrifice for political good order ... My generation of queer people saw that in 2004. It's tragic to see it happen now.
I’m a lesbian.
I’m old enough to remember “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and Stonewall.
I know what serious discrimination is.
Currently, the tiniest slight is blown out of proportion to justify bashing Dems. Who do you think that helps?
The propaganda machine has worked well for Republicans.
I was in Russia and Hungary when their democracies became stagnant and cureled into the first versions of fascism. Well-meaning people with no personal stake said we had to respect the wills of bigots. I recognize the flavor.
From the comments , I have observed that it is obvious that a number of people have lost sight of what America used to represent you can't cherry pick rights ..Freedom for All or Freedom for None..Fighting among each other is what the top 5% want..Fight the Good Fight for each other
It's a good test for any MAGA or Trump supporter: Ask them if the promises of legal equality and the balance of the American dream are for everybody or are limited to some privileged group of which they are a member. If they're honest, they'll tell you about "real Americans" vs. "others."
Sadly people have not "lost sight" it's always been rights for a few and the rest left to struggle fighting for their rights. Founders only gave rights to land owning white men
True. That's the whole point behind "MAGA." When they say that, they mean to turn back the clock to when cis-het white pseudo-Christians could act like they were better than everyone else without getting called out for it.
It’s not specific to MAGA. If this year alone has demonstrated anything with complete clarity, it’s just how many Dems who claim to oppose that shit will IMMEDIATELY buckle and support it
MAGA politicians and media outlets actively work to manufacture bigoted sentiment among their gullible followers to keep them distracted from economic issues. The Dems shift towards those bigoted beliefs in a desperate attempt to gain votes without offering beneficial economic policies that... 1/2
Wasn’t referring to just the US. Many left leaning party figures in Europe have chosen to throw minorities under the bus. So, the few who do bring up marginalized groups and stand up for them at least have a little fight in them. Not that voting is the end all of political action ofc
I could answer that I’m aware that she is not a leftist, and my point isn’t that she is. Or that I’m exclusively talking about the USA. But I’m not sure that would matter to you.
It's so much easier to communicate values when you don't equivocate. Other Democrats need to stop weighing down their words with provisos and exceptions. Like she said "everyone, without exception"
2/ ...the conversation becomes susceptible to emotive/manipulative propaganda, muddying the waters (and outright lying) because it's no longer about a clear principle, it's about where to draw the line defining who is covered by it and who is excluded.
4/ ...demonise a marginalised group that can be cast unsympathetically/smeared the hardest, pick them off from the back of the herd with propaganda designed to convince people they don't deserve coverage...
Why is it taken as a given (by progressives, no less) that supporting LGBTQ human rights increases likelihood of losing elections? It’s a false cause / effect equation and we should stop repeating it.
Because mainstream society has not given its consent for a redrawing of the near-universal understanding of gender and when we try and engage, we are called monsters. And let's leave gay people out of this, they're the ones who've been thrown under the bus through co-opting.
Too bad the Dems don't "stand together" at all, and they can't throw trans people under the bus fast enough.
I do not see this message as one that Dems will respond to. They're well aware of what they're doing in sacrificing LGBTQ folks and immigrants and people who need federal aid.
This woman should STILL be the next leader of the Democrats! She only lost by a crooked inch & I don't see why she can't lead again!
Many have family but returned &'won & America loves her💙💙
There's a huge difference between not throwing the LBGTQ+ community under the bus and supporting LGBTQ+ rights and being so obsessively and exclusively focused on the rights of a small group of trans male athletes to the point where we EXCLUDE alies! (1/2)
Thats the problem. It is not about fighting for any one group's rights. My rights or your rights. We have to fight for everyone's right. We can't change the way people feel. We can only create a legal system that gives us all a chance to fight for our rights.
This has to be hyperbole. There is not a single politician that is solely focused on LGBTQ+ rights. There maybe a few that recognize that they are directly and passionately being attacked at the moment though. And true allies would recognize that is when you put their needs before your own
We need to focus on civil and human rights of ALL Americans, for all people of color, for women, for all marginalized communities, and together fight fascism. When we argue about whether individuals born as biological males can compete in high school & college sports against women, WE ARE LOSING!
We already lost and Democrats threw transgender people under the bus BEFORE we lost and it wasn't "trans athletes" they but, it was TRANSGENDER PEOPLE including youth, so take that apologist crap elsewhere.
"For progressives... Democracy is a governing system in which citizens care about their fellow citizens and work through their government to provide public resources for all."
you're really gonna sit there and "all lives matter" trans people. trans rights are human rights. if we don't draw that line, they'll pick us off one at a time
As cmax said, there's a difference between supporting CIVIL RIGHTS, SOCIAL ACCEPTANCE, & supporting UNFAIR FAVORITISM in sports.
It's why ppl are uncomf w 'Affirmative action'.
Reduce wealth inequality and support civil rights.
It's doable. There are far fewer multimillionaires than white ppl.
This persons “First they came for the communists and I did nothing because too many didn’t like communists and they will pick us off one by one if we don’t stand together” is _extremely_ weird logic.
And ppl know it. 82% of voters say economic inequality in the US is a "big problem."
Denying it is insanity.
Talking about it alienates multimillionaire donors.
Boo-hoo.
But saying something that we WISH were true (but is not) IS true, loses elections.
Trans women, on average, are stronger & faster than other women. (Fact)
It's not fair to OTHER women to let them compete on an equal basis. It's about fairness. https://www.dw.com/en/do-trans-women-have-an-unfair-athletic-advantage/a-58583988
Good discussion here:
The principal hypothesis predicting a prevalence of larger males in mammals is that the reproductive investment that females commit to their offspring results in a skewed operational sex ratio leading to greater mate competition among males. https://www.nature.com/articles/s41467-024-45739-5
MAGA made trans women athletes a big issue. It shouldn't be.
Kneejerk support FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE weakens Dems, because it's unfair to women.
Keeping ppl from being killed bc of who they are-unquestionable.
Taxing the rich & ECONOMIC justice are big winners.
That's Bernie's main message.
People probably have an understandable issue with guns killing kids in school because there is evidence to support that's actually happening. People concerned about trans athletes or transitioning in general, which is not an issue, are probably consuming too much propoganda.
The allies that believe in trans rights, but don't believe trans women athletes should compete in women's sports because they have an unfair biological advantage over those that are born as biological women.
This is the kind of BS that feeds the "woke virus" claims and causes DEMs to lose elections
A majority of Americans, regardless of party believe trans women athletes should not
compete in women's sports. Not because they hate trans people but because it provides an unfair biological advantage.
People who agree with you on every other political point and policy, but who are thrown under the bus, ignored and insulted because of divergence on this one issue that should be a minor issue but has taken over.
the argument for banning trans females from women's and girls' events relies on an assumption that they are not *really* female, and that cissexism does not stop with sports, nor with trans females specifically
Protecting LGTBQ kids does not mean we eliminate weight classes in wrestling, or eliminate women's sports. It means protecting them against violence & shaming.
sports associations HAVE BEEN - for over a decade. What's different now is that the zealots needed a new scapegoat after Obergefell.
They literally ADMIT that they were looking for a wedge issue that would move the normies when they settled on this one. The choice before us is to cave - or fight.
better for who? Both parties think its OK to kill innocent people in a democracy. Trump will make the country weaker. when it comes for me, i weaker is better. "Yσᵘ w𝐚ɳ𝘵 iƭ d𝓪ʳ𝘬𝘦𝘳. Wε k𝘪𝘭ℓ t𝓱𝓮 fʟ𝓪𝘮𝓮" --Leonard Cohen.
I am one of those lgbt families. I live in rehoboth beach Delaware. Please visit us. We have some really cool places to eat and meet other lgbt people here. And we are very family oriented. The boardwalk is amazing.
One of the first times someone gendered me correctly was in Rehoboth, a woman came up to me in a gay bar because she thought I was her 18-year-old son and she was going to come yell at me for underaged drinking, then she realized I wasn't him and bought me a drink instead and we had a nice chat.
It was so sweet and it was very early on in my transition so it was a boost I really needed. Like. Wow. A stranger in a bar saw me as I wish to be seen that's unbelievable I'm astounded life can feel this good.
Rehoboth Beach is our favorite beach hangout, from the time our kids were small, to today as empty nest folks.
That RBD is more than welcoming to LGBTQ+, was reassuring spending our dollars and time with people who value everyone. I was more secure about my kids safety there, than in OC, MD.
Really? Name one democratic leader who personally committed genocide you flake.... Reality check we didn't lose because people care about other countries, actually the opposite.. The fascists pretend to be patriotic and only "care" about America, but they are really just buying favors (pay to win)
Unless you’re going to claim that sending $40 billion dollars while providing legal cover from the INTERNATIONAL CRIMINAL COURT isn’t just as bad as pulling the trigger, Joseph Fucking Biden.
And AOC FULLY endorsed the candidates committing those atrocities. Pretty much told anyone who called her out on it to fuck off. But these people don't want to talk about that particular reality.
I truly appreciate the support but unfortunately at 687 anti trans bills it's a little too late. We been under the bus long enough that we're just a fine pink mist on the road. These hyper religious red states want us dead and they're well down the path to success 😞 just the same thank you AOC.
omg when will people stop this madness! aoc sold out and took down her foreign policy page as soon as she got into office. anytime there is class consciousness they throw these democratic buffoons to quell any union within the proletariat jfc
Elon musk child is a trans. what do you think he did? He kicked her out and disowned her. Elon Musk is the worst piece of shit ever. Let’s break his businesses.
I agree with him. The far left failed the nation and the Democratic party in 2016 and 2024. These people are no heroes to me. And anti-corporate Bernie voted to protect gun manufacturers from lawsuits. How does that make him morally superior to "corporate" Hillary Clinton?
The last time the democratic party was actually a resistance party was when they elected Obama, by appealing to the actual left on care for the working class (universal healthcare, etm.)
Centrist dems (specifically the blue dogs) shafted us on the collective wants of the people, right and left...
Nah; most of us voted in coalition. Strategic voting in FPTP is voting *against* the worst candidate, and that's definitely something most on the left know, by survey of understanding.
Ignoring voting abnormalities, it's folks between dems and far left who weren't fired up.
Hey @mcbride.house.gov, this is how you show up for trans people as a Democrat. Please take notes. You are quickly becoming a disgrace to our community.
LGB has existed since forever. Queer theory is less than 30 years old, and the obvious social contagion that is large numbers of proto-gay autistic youth identifying as T started between 2009 and 2014.
Google is the big labyrinth of software information. (It takes forever). you know what it means, right? You can give me a fast answer then google. I believe this community is safe place to answer simple questions for my curiosity.
This here is one of the reasons Democrats lost.
A kid does not understand sex,its generally his mother that has turned him,because she did not get the daughter she wanted.
Gender is something you are born with,as you grown older you can transition.
You stand alone on the gender/Pro noun issue.
Obviously you don't understand what LGBTQ means. It isn't just about gender identity but also about your sexual identity. I am not trans and am still a part of this community because of my sexual identity. I've known my sexual identity since I was about 10 & my parents don't support it.
I choose not to see it as fair or unfair because the gay and lesbian community has never been welcoming of me as a bisexual but the trans community has been. I choose to see it as there should be room for all of us.
The gay and lesbian community are pissed that these people,have tried to hijack something that does not belong too them...They are triggered when lesbians tell them to,go fuck yourselves for trying to take away there womanhood.
I'm sorry but, you lose any credibility for me when you forget my identity that is just as much a part of this community as those who are gay and lesbian. If you are going to completely leave out those of us who are bisexual you aren't an ally to me.
It was NEVER EVER discussed in Sex Ed..We discussed men and women,boys and girls,males and female..We did not discuss nonsense like Por Nouns,or they and them.
U use those terms now in politics,its going too cost u your job,its a toxic term.
Yes i am 100% a HE..Like all males.
Alas we are not going too play little games with you,we will call you what we believe you are,and it does not matter if you like it or not.U 100% have to live with it.
Go talk to actual biologists. In the mean time, learn about River: born with male anatomy, bullied for being too feminine, promised puberty would make bring muscles and silence bullies, but instead, puberty brought breasts.
What would you prefer River goes by other than them, hmm?
less than 0.000000000001 of the planet are intersex...Stop with the nonsense..U know exactly what i am saying..Always rage with u lot,and go around the houses with nonsense.
its slightly less than 1%,but the argument i have still stands..
Lesbians are having there sexuality removed,because some fat dyke got triggered,because she refused to lose some weight,and find someone who find her attractive.And now she does not want to be in a categories with anyone else.
Its male and female,u are born one or the other..Whatever u decide to do after that,does not change what u are born..
And intersex,less than 0.00000000001 of the planet.
You can be whatever the fuck you want to be! Who are you to tell anyone what to do? You were born the same as the rest of us and as such have the right to live YOUR life as you see fit, what on EARTH do you imagine gives you the right to deny the same to others?
U are born one of two sexes...And yes u do can with your life whatever u want to do.
But the facts still stand,u are born and u are male or female,or one of the 0.0000000001% who are intersexual.
Nonsense..U dont understand your own sex until u are older.You might try to fool others,but i dont believe a word u say.
U dont understand what a penis or vagina is yet,nevermind your own sexual orientation.
Oh now you are telling me,you know more about my life than me.
Fucking arrogance of you lot is unreal.
I spent my first 5 years of my adulthood working in gay bars in Manchester England.
There is a whole fucking community,its own village,and let me tell you,lesbians have enough of you fucks,
trying to take away there womanhood..The whole they and them is only for,fat dikes,who have zero will to lose weight,look half decent and try to attact a woman of the opposite sex.Fuck it i will demand u call me a cat,because no human wants to touch with wearing a space suit.
And you know it too. Every time you lay your head on a pillow. Every time you glimpse yourself in a mirror. You know, exactly, how repulsive of a human you are.
I'd say I hope you never forget... but you never do.
Greatly disappointed at a party Rife with backstabbing because they couldn’t sort themselves out with their messaging and how to fight back as one. Get your acts together ffs, time is running out before Trump's fascist white supremacist Russian-tool swampland is deeply and fully entrenched.
Comments
Also idek who those people are in those photos
Calling for unity when it's only someone you want means you don't want unity, you want your pick.
AOC is doing the work rallying. Which is what's needed.
Show me your pick and what they're doing.
I love this for her and for all of us.
The question is how long until it reaches full swing.
Maybe I’m delusional, but that’s how I see it
Try being an ally rather than a concern troll.
A chunk of these people r actually DEEP in the closet to the point of self loathing just look at what happened to Grindr when the republican convention was going->it crashed.
Men redefining women to the detriment of women and without the consent of women isn’t right.
It’s not right.
You do need to walk away from it.
EXISTING on the same
planet as you @ulmus.bsky.social ???
Remember it’s not the powerless destroying your life or world, it’s the powerful who are more than happy to cut your SS cheques in order to get themselves another tax cut!

You’d think she didn’t exist.
Kamala was ranked one of the most progressive senators by roll call votes. The only person who voted more progressively was Warren (not Bernie).
A) realize trans rights are the bulwark holding up the rest of our rights. When they lose theirs, they're going to move on to the rest of us.
B) when some Repub or Corp Dem screams all we talk about are transpeople, remind them we're only responding when THEY shit on them.

Discussing this topic isn’t the same as denying anyone their human rights.
There's only 5 trans women in high school girls' teams.
If it were truly a gigantic advantage, there would be way more, but it's bullshit.

Rational people can understand nuance.
And btw these purity tests (I’m sure you’re getting ready to call me a bigot) are why we are losing people.
You sacrificed the rights of an entire group of human beings for this. You helped the maga vilify them.
Fairness. It’s simple and has nothing to do with any manosphere whatever the hell you are talking about.
I don't get these Democrats.
It's LGBTQ+ all the way -- or assuredly we shall all hang separately.
Just checking because it doesn't seem clear and I certainly don't want to find I've accidentally followed them all instead
Whatever!!!!
If they're slapping on labels and not allowing for error, they might as well just leave it up to us.
As good a guess as any, eh?
It was an irritating AI device with a grilled bread product obsession. It COULD talk existential philosophy ... but it would always bring it around again to offering some kind of grilled bread product.
it just feels like two other lifetimes ago

No one on the outside even attempted to hold me back when I panicked about losing loved ones..... before i realized that peace is better than making family/ friends happy about my existence.
this couldn't be more blatantly fed-made if you tried.
Maybe Trump is a necessary evil and what is required by the US.
For the Dem Party to be the party of the people, in the image of AOC, Bernie, Crockett, Salwell, Murphy … this may be the catalyst.
Not to be the party of the Billionaire classes, promoted by the Clintons, Pelosi, Schumer …
Learn your lesson, dumbass
Meanwhile alienating the left is always a losing proposition. When the left stays at home Democrats will always lose.
When will the democrats learn their lesson?
They don’t care. They’re getting paid.
Learn your lesson.
Ur analysis is asinine and ur hypocrisy as vile as magats
They're DIRECTLY responsible for Pedo-Shitler's rise to power in MANY ways.
The DNC is just the lesser of 2 evils.
(Albeit the much, Much, MUCH, *MUCH* lesser)
They ARE still complicit.
In the yellow. For fifty years, which auspiciously now applies to both post-Reagan Democrats and Peanuts.
You’ll never guess who Blue is.
I'm okay with throwing spineless senators and members or even other powerful people under the bus if they deserve it.
These societal leaches have been coordinating with US adversaries to take control of the US gov, its policies, and working class political influence.
They've accomplished this by attacking America's underbelly of racism, misogyny, and hate.
Anyone denying, is lying.
Stop watching fox.
You win zero elections by being Republican lite.
Voters will just choose the real McCoy. And if someone is willing to throw people under the bus to win, f them
They spoke about changing tax law to reduce burden on middle class
They talked about creating jobs
They talked about removing the burden of paying for at home or nursing care for the elderly from children
Ahahahahahahahaaahahahahahahaahahaa
We need to primary every single one of them and show them what the opposition to fascism is really about.
Headline said Biden threw trans under a bus.
He signed a bill to give a raise to 800k military - possibly last one they will get. Bill had unenforceable vague rider about trans health that could only affect 0.01% of military minor dependents.
A lot of this rhetoric is red meat.
I’m old enough to remember “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and Stonewall.
I know what serious discrimination is.
Currently, the tiniest slight is blown out of proportion to justify bashing Dems. Who do you think that helps?
The propaganda machine has worked well for Republicans.
Kind of a Justice Dems thing. Purity over Progress is their motto.
If you allow exceptions, even if you convince yourself your motives are good - or smart, or practical, or merely realpolitik, or whatever - then...
...then rinse & repeat.
------
TL;DR: what you said.
No. Fucking. Chance.
Democrats are the supermajority in CA, for now. They’d better get their asses in gear in the current environment.
I do not see this message as one that Dems will respond to. They're well aware of what they're doing in sacrificing LGBTQ folks and immigrants and people who need federal aid.

It's why ppl are uncomf w 'Affirmative action'.
Reduce wealth inequality and support civil rights.
It's doable. There are far fewer multimillionaires than white ppl.
Denying it is insanity.
Talking about it alienates multimillionaire donors.
Boo-hoo.

Trans women, on average, are stronger & faster than other women. (Fact)
It's not fair to OTHER women to let them compete on an equal basis. It's about fairness.
https://www.dw.com/en/do-trans-women-have-an-unfair-athletic-advantage/a-58583988
We should protect everyone to let them be who they are, not where they can compete in sports. It's complicated.

The principal hypothesis predicting a prevalence of larger males in mammals is that the reproductive investment that females commit to their offspring results in a skewed operational sex ratio leading to greater mate competition among males.

We need a solution fair to all.
There's a lot of free-floating anger, plus Russian bots & trolls flaming nuanced discussion.
Kneejerk support FOR THIS SPECIFIC ISSUE weakens Dems, because it's unfair to women.
Keeping ppl from being killed bc of who they are-unquestionable.
Taxing the rich & ECONOMIC justice are big winners.
That's Bernie's main message.
But many also understandably have concerns about bio males in women's sports, and irreversible procedures for children.
That's not transphobic, just reasonable & balanced.
2/3 of Americans oppose biological males in women's sports. Including a majority of Dems.
But we're the propagandized fools?
How does it feel to know that you're spouting the same deluded, bigoted nonsense as your Nazi president?
But are smeared as transphobes despite supporting civil right for transfolks. It's alienating.
Not that you actually care, what with you using transphobic dogwhistles such as 'biological male'
Why not go fuck yourself?
A majority of Americans, regardless of party believe trans women athletes should not
compete in women's sports. Not because they hate trans people but because it provides an unfair biological advantage.
Absolute bollocks.
You're just a TERF.
inevitably followed by more 'necessary concessions' once people have shown they're willing to throw oppressed minorities under the bus
How are they allies if they're bigots?
You misgendering trans women is illuminating.
AOC is the future of the Democratic Party.
Sport assocs can regulate sports.
It's complicated & nuanced. Simple answers are no help.

They literally ADMIT that they were looking for a wedge issue that would move the normies when they settled on this one. The choice before us is to cave - or fight.
Also, to be fair, they’re afraid what happens to them and their families if they cross Trump/Musk.
Or Harris, who ignored the left and Arab-Americans, and target white GOP women, who did not vote for her?

I voted for Harris.
Are you having a hard time reading?
That RBD is more than welcoming to LGBTQ+, was reassuring spending our dollars and time with people who value everyone. I was more secure about my kids safety there, than in OC, MD.
Don’t be dense.
Ah yes, if there's anything I believe, it's that Democrats actually have any beliefs, let alone dogmatic ones. /s
This neoliberal mentality will be the death of our nation.
This administration (actually it is a regime!) has illegally arrested, detained and/or deported so many people without due process, one of these cases will get through. Then they will deport ANYONE THEY WANT.

Centrist dems (specifically the blue dogs) shafted us on the collective wants of the people, right and left...

What was the goal of this comment?
For women and girls
A kid does not understand sex,its generally his mother that has turned him,because she did not get the daughter she wanted.
Gender is something you are born with,as you grown older you can transition.
You stand alone on the gender/Pro noun issue.
"Blaming the mother" is such an old BS cliché. Is that what you fall back when you have problems in your own life?
U use those terms now in politics,its going too cost u your job,its a toxic term.
Alas we are not going too play little games with you,we will call you what we believe you are,and it does not matter if you like it or not.U 100% have to live with it.
What would you prefer River goes by other than them, hmm?
You are gay,lesbian,bi or trans,you are not a they or them.

“It’s binary except for the millions of examples when it isnt” 🙄
Lesbians are having there sexuality removed,because some fat dyke got triggered,because she refused to lose some weight,and find someone who find her attractive.And now she does not want to be in a categories with anyone else.
https://youtu.be/nVQplt7Chos?si=3xxTWq3QIf3piKFb
And intersex,less than 0.00000000001 of the planet.
But the facts still stand,u are born and u are male or female,or one of the 0.0000000001% who are intersexual.
The word “I” is a pronoun.
Maybe you should shut the fuck up and listen to trans people's experiences-- because it is pretty common.
U dont understand what a penis or vagina is yet,nevermind your own sexual orientation.
Stop trying to speak on other people's experiences-- because you have absolutely no fucking clue.
Fucking arrogance of you lot is unreal.
I spent my first 5 years of my adulthood working in gay bars in Manchester England.
There is a whole fucking community,its own village,and let me tell you,lesbians have enough of you fucks,
Only misery is that miserable.
And you know it too. Every time you lay your head on a pillow. Every time you glimpse yourself in a mirror. You know, exactly, how repulsive of a human you are.
I'd say I hope you never forget... but you never do.
Messy means it's working as intended because the citizens are all different.
