      It brings a certain: “Why do you make me beat our children” vibe that I’m just not feeling.

      It’s the very fabric of humanity that they’re going for.

    Well, if they rere trying to put their political enemies on a war footing, this is a fine way to inspire it.

    On a related note, I was unaware there was international funding available. Do I get double payments for being both anticapitalist AND transgender?

      Unfortunately all funds for terrorism have been spent on Israel. Please stand in line.

      One has to make the case for gay sex. It literally causes ZERO unwanted pregnancies. So as a Cis male perhaps I should do another gentleman in the name of Jesus Christ? And incredibly enough, no abortions either. Hopefully everyone walks away all the happier.

        Religious people want pregnancies, they are always going on about birth rates as if humanity is about to go extinct 😅 Although that’s a racist thing too (they worry that people from other religions have more children and thus change the religious balance).

        It’s also the reason they are so against abortions really. More births, wanted or not is a secondary concern.

        As an atheist I find all this very tiring and sex is just for fun for me, but they love putting all these arbitrary rules upon themselves.

    Make a note of your local red hats. Their faces. Their addresses. Don’t lose this when they leave power. Keep if with people who will be safe.

    Remember them. Remember the families who still spoke to them. Remember where they live. They will let their guard down someday.

    Counterterrorism used to mean stopping crazies from blowing shit up or killing innocent people in the United States. Now it means targeting minorities. Which gives actual terrorists free reign to attack on US soil.

    Even if Trump is a Russian agent he couldn’t do more damage than he’s already doing.

        Berlin of the 20s was probably the most liberal place for queer people in the west. Dr. Magnus Hirschfeld founded the Institut für Sexualwissenschaft and wrote the first paper on trans identities, gave people counseling, hormones and recommended surgeons.

        He was able to decriminalise homosexuality and have trans people allowed to present “sex non-conforming” in public if they had a slip from him.

        The Nazis used this for culture wars and promise a return to the golden time of tradition and morality.

        His institute was raided in the first book burning, thousand of scientific papers are lost forever, his patients hunted down. He managed to flee to France.

        It’s important to treat his persona critically though, because as a scientist of his time, he also adopted some problematic stances on eugenics and racial teachings. On the other hand, he was also one of the few that criticised the rigor of the science behind those teachings from time to time.

    Trans people existing is subversive because it is an extremely high expression of freedom and challenges fundamental concepts about our world. If someone can change their gender, what else can we change? Capitalism? Politicians?

      Belief that transgender identity is valid. Which, contrary to popular belief, is supported by science. Are they going to shut down university biology departments that say sex and gender are different? Label these scientists as terrorists and execute them? It’s terrifying

      It means that my daughter and her friends can stand behind me.

      If these Nazi cunts want to go after them, they gotta go through me first. Literally. Physically. They will have to kill me to take her.

      Alive.

      But in reality, their words are meaningless. They’ll say anything to get power over us, and if they see an advantage in it, they’ll say the opposite tomorrow.

      Debate doesn’t work with them. Organize, resist, subvert. Do whatever you need to do to survive.

      You’ve been sleepwalking into it for 30, 40 years.

      You’ve let your buddy drive drunk for the entire road trip, quietly scolding him while giving everyone else the finger for deigning to suggest maybe you should take the wheel or at very least take away his keys. Now that you’re headed toward that cliff, you like to pretend this is something you just now became aware of, but… huh, you’re STILL not doing anything about it.

      Stop fighting among yourselves like mindless sheep the oligarchs want you to be. Whatever the election’s results, you’d still be living a shitty life. Elections will not get you a decent life, no matter how badly any of us wish they would. Either start organizing or leave the country. You deserve better.

      Please stop trying to hurt Democrats in elections. You are a Republican operative trying to divide the left.
