Nah it’s pretty scientifically accurate and discluding trans people from the idea of being normal people is insulting.

It was in large part because he thought woke Twitter turned his daughter transgender. It was always personal and petty with him. That and the Saudis wanted to put their money behind his takeover because Twitter was seen to have played a crucial organizing role in the Arab spring uprising.

Nah I’ve got you tagged for this too. Biden has to be supported at this point, my life and many others are absolutely on the line. Defeating trump, trumps any and all concerns about Biden.

Nope, politics is won by messaging. By constantly hand wringing about flaws your echoing his critics material. We all know his weaknesses, echoing them over and over only weakens the messaging.

Point is your just echoing the criticisms, which undermines his strength as a politician even if he isn’t anyones favorite, he’s still a good Democrat who is old school pro union, which is honestly more beneficial and fundamental to democratic power than anything.

I know his troubled history, I’m trans, I’m a socialist. I do not believe there is any other way for me to survive without a Biden win, and black people in South Carolina overwhelmingly put Biden in charge of the democratic party over Bernie Sanders and I respect that choice because he was there to uphold Obama’s legacy.

Obama changed Healthcare forever he gave me the Healthcare that saved my life literally, again trans. His hope and change was a step forward. But you don’t sound old enough to remember what it was like before that. And he was betrayed out of his congressional power immediately after by Joe Lieberman.

Yuuuuup and it was the only one they could pass because of the one seat majority Joe Lieberman afforded them and he was bought out, the original Kristen Sinema.

Still saved a lot of lives and still infinitely better than what was before it.

They don’t want trans people to exist as anything but a porn category, so they treat us as just that, a profanity. It’d be funny because of how pathetic it is, but real people are dying because of this.

Aren’t we already there? We need to start over.

Schiff has been a powerful voice in the house, he’s been there long enough, he’s a tough as hell lawyer (and is hated because he has lead several impeachment proceedings with great success). He’s articulate and a powerful advocate.

Agreed, people’s lives are on the line. Republicans have made it very clear they intend to kill more women, lgbtqia people, black people, and other minorities if they regain power.

I hope it’s more due to the fact that he had a stroke rather than he’s doing it intentionally. Either way he has had a complete shift in personality and its disappointing to no end that he’s not who he was when elected.

I’m not worried about Biden’s age mostly because I think this comes from the racist fear that Kamala Harris isn’t capable of running this country.

To think sustainability in agriculture is not about climate change is rather a narrow definition of climate change.

Performative protests are a warning that things aren’t right. And French history has shown a penchant for heavy sharp falling objects to the back of the neck as the next alternative.

That’s the thing about a threat, it doesn’t have to lead to violence, but it is the performative act of violence. And the commitment to do violence or at least suffer the consequences, in this case arrest. That’s what this was. You can understand it or not.

That’s why it was largely performative, to avoid the label of terrorism, but yes. A revolutionary threat might also be a label one could use, depending on how you want to look at it.
