i wish i knew how to quit you

one of the heart breaking things about anti trans propaganda is how wildly effective it has been. Study after study pre 2017 showed the majority of people in the U.S. were generally positive on trans issues and happy to learn more. Jordan Peterson, JKR, Matt Walsh, all those freaks will burn in hell

Rep. Sarah McBride: "We will not take a lecture on decorum from a party that incited an insurrection. I appear to live rent free in the minds of some of my Republican colleagues. I wish they would spend even a fraction of the time that they spend thinking about me, thinking about … families."

Kelly: When I was flying in combat over Iraq during the first Gulf War, I didn’t expect that there was a 10-year-old kid sitting in South Africa who would one day become the richest guy in the world and call me a traitor for doing my job. Now, he kind of acts like a 12-year-old kid

I think they should change the inscription on the Statue of Liberty to “This place is not a place of honor, no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here, nothing valued is here. This place is best shunned and left uninhabited.”

It's not DEI rollback, it's resegregation.
It's not CRT rollback, it's whitewashing slavery colonialism and apartheid.
It's not anti-woke, it's pro-bigotry.
It's not sensible solutions to common sense problems, it's trans genocide.
It's not deportation, it's holocaust pre-gaming.
Call it what it is.

if christians were actually persecuted they might shut the fuck up once in awhile

Chapstick

This isn't going to get the attention of Columbia, but it's at least as bad: the University of Maine is having its funding cut off because the governor of Maine dared to challenge Trump.

a very good morning to everyone illegally colluding to not buy a Tesla

19 Democrats voted to confirm Brooke Rollins, the agriculture secretary responsible for stealing food from the mouths of hungry Americans.

A screenshot of a Tumblr post. The original poster is "checkerdandy" who reblogged it from "ashlelia." The next post is from "beastliness" who says "more people need to give themselves permission to write and draw pornography." The next post is from "beastliness" who says "it is virtuous and necessary that you write, draw, and distribute pornography." The next post is from "thoughtscout" who says "can we start with not conflating 'erotic/sexual art or writing' with pornography." The last post is from "beastliness" who says "no lmao." At the bottom of the screenshot it says "61,275 notes" and there are icons for reblog, reply, share, and like.

Mixing metaphors just as well as cement mixes with honey

again, I think a major problem with America is that a critical mass of voters and elites have convinced themselves they can't die even if they stab themselves—that it is impossible to elect a government that actually makes their lives worse so its all just a game

WSJ Breaking News 2h ago The Trump administration is cancelling roughly $400 million in grants and contracts to Columbia University over allegations of antisemitism

You can have the cops come beat the shit out of your students to prove you’re not a filthy commie and they’ll still do this to you and all you’ll have done is show everyone what a pathetic little coward you are. Might as well do the right thing the first time

This is so heartbreaking

the correct centrist Dem play on trans stuff is imo a version of Biden’s “I don’t really get what they got going but i will sock you one, Jack”

This is true but still dumb as shit and very reminiscent of “I’m fine with the gays but I don’t want them to rub it in my face all the time”. Just knee-jerk sentiment that no serious political operative should even consider.

Their evidence will just be a tearful granola mom saying that the spark just went out of her kid’s eyes after he got his MMR shot.

"americans don't need cheap goods" "americans don't need good stock portfolio" "americans don't need job" look if the goal is to radicalize the public by taking away all the benefits of capitalism and leaving only the bad parts these guys could scarcely be doing a better job

Liliana, Death's Majesty: three sayings to any fool who would claim that i am the bitch of this website: 1.your god damn right 2. i dont give a fuck 3. you Lose

Tim Drake: Hey buddy. You doing okay there? That dye job is…kind of a lot. Kon-El: Call me DC because I’m clearly having a crisis.

This is where I’m at. They’re getting pushback at every level but there’s so much damage being done in the meantime

A blind woman is on a date with an unknown person, nervous about expectations and their relationship. She says: "As a blind person, it's so difficult to find a proper partner. People can be too judgemental and harsh. I know I'm not perfect... And I understand if you don't want to date a--" She's immediately cut off by the mysterious figure, revealing herself to be Medusa, holding the hand of her girlfriend, comforting her and saying: "Silly, you're perfect just the way you are"

He is more importantly extremely annoying and out of touch with reality

the purpose of banning section 230 is to ban all political, sexual, or critical speech from the internet

this is to silence grassroots movements that don’t have the explicit sanction of the wealthy and powerful

you are an abject moron or a liar if you believe it has any other purpose

It started out so strong with the American Ring remake and then just slid into garbagetown for what honestly feels like political reasons, looking back

Screen grab of Twitter post my pundit Matt Yglesias saying that California governor Newsom is not only correct on merit to oppose trans athletes, but that it's bizarre to see the Democratic party line up on an issue that is opposed 70-30.

Interracial marriage did not cross 50% approval in the US until 1996, when I was 30 years old. Good political messaging drives opinion, it doesn't follow it.

It’s not a purity test to ask our leaders not to throw multiple minority groups under the bus to MAYBE attract the same people who’ve been calling Joe Biden a communist since 2017

Joe Rogan’s success is based entirely on his being a dumb stoner talking to dumb stoners. Charlie Kirk’s messaging is only successful for whiny white dudes who get mad when their college professors tell them that slavery was bad.
