Putin taught Republicans how to weaponize transphobia to steal the 2024 election.

And the 2020 election.

And the 2016 election.

This has been going on for nearly a decade.

Here is a report from every single US intelligence agency in October 2016 saying that Russia was trying you steal the election.

Sad but true.

No it really wasn't Putin that taught Billionaire Oligarchs how to weaponize aspects of culture to get governments they want, Billionaire Oligarchs have used prejudice of one sort or another throughout history to retain their power.

I'm old enough to remember how Billionaire Oligarch owned media in Reagan & Thatchers era in 1980's was full of culture wars homophobic rhetoric so you could argue Putin learned from them. This really isn't a new phenomenon history is littered with the ruling class using prejudice to retain power.

This is all old hat; Russian/MEGA/Space Karen Propaganda is rather simplistic (specially compared to the USSR/China's). look up William Randolph Hearst, his propaganda got us into wars, elected Presidents; still effects US modern Drug, Border, Race, Police Policies; & so much more to this day.

That is very true - I’m always shocked by young men talking about men in the bathroom with wives or kids - yet none experienced it or anyone they know .. crazy !!

God bless #PussyRiot they've been sounding the alarm, at great risk, for decades

And it stands to reason that all the people who have migrated here include frauds, trolls, and more skilled agent provocateurs who appear "similar" but are skilled at instigating shit and dissension. Socratic paradox, you confuse knowledge and virtue. Don't give a damn about any Hank W except #1.

Not easily grasped, but true.

It was Hitler who taught Putin and the Catholic Church before that - just so you know what you're up against.

I Was A Communist For The FBI was a B&W 1951 suspense movie warning us about Maga and The Russians but nobody wanted to listen to a movie. General Patton warned us about the Russians before that movie they thought he was crazy.

Putin didn't teach conservatives a god damn thing.

They were already reprehensible monster men and as such stood on a reprehensible platform that attracted the politically apathetic as well as genuinely reprehensible people.

Reprehensible lol. Said it alot but its the only word that nails it

malloy.rocks•67 days ago

I hear ya, but MAGA Republicans really have been getting their talking points from the Kremlin.

North Korea, Iran and Trump on the same team.

nobodyspecial1.bsky.social•67 days ago

Bringing me to my next point, they're just stupid! They'll believe anything if it's flavored right.

Wasn't Russia paying American conservative mouth pieces to push anti Ukraine garbage for $100k per video? It's madness

Never forget the ugliness that surfaces when people refuse to understand or expand their worldview to accept the existence and dignity of others.

America used to (try to) export democracy to the world. Now (thanks to the GOP) we're importing autocracy from the worst of the world.

lms2025.bsky.social•65 days ago

Exactly. The ones I talk to have no rational reason for their support or hate. All based on lies and fear of the boogeyman created by Trump.

tamarasclan.bsky.social•65 days ago

As soon as you ask them for a personal story of impact they run and hide behind their media. Sheep

What happened to the Jews is what's going to happen to trans people. They were demonized. Now we're being demonized. That's how it started. I wouldn't be surprised if Trump signs an executive order to round up all the trans people and send them into camps.

informalogic.bsky.social•67 days ago

Nope, not gonna live in that world.
Not going to watch people being rounded up.
That’s fighting time.

woodhai29.bsky.social•66 days ago

Fuck yeah it is. They will have to put me in the cold cold ground before they ever put me into any kind of conversion therapy

And gassed their WW1 vets who where still in hospitals.

woodhai29.bsky.social•67 days ago

If they want to do that they're going to get a fight. I'm going to call every single LGBTQ organization I can think of, And we're going to be prepared.
