every single transphobic argument about healthcare falls apart into simple rank bigotry the instant you make the insulin comparison without fail. "I have the right to control my endocrine system" is only a radical act about sex hormones, for some reason. I wonder why.

one thing i hate about the modern era is that in order to understand what is happening you have to read a whole bunch of total nonsense

this is how you talk to people who act like this. you don't write articles about their unique point of view.

NEBRASKA CROWD: “TAX THE RICH! TAX THE RICH!” @USRepMikeFlood: “So your proposal to solve (the debt) is tax the rich?” NEBRASKA CROWD: *CHEERS WILDLY* (not sure this went quite as he planned 😬)

A "convenient" element of American cultural identity is that self-sacrificing for the greater good is Noble. These folks voted to hurt others and will endure the pain of excess in exchange for what they think will make them happy later.

Hardening your mind through exposure to dangerous speech isn't something you should brag about. Propaganda is fucking serious and you risk your rationality by not taking it seriously.
