    I head out to BLM when I can.

    Yeah, you certainly do fedposting

    Found a gem in the comments:

    Not only the election, but also rights of impacted individuals. The discourse around gender affirming care and trans athletes’ right to compete in college sports was used as a wedge issue in 2024. MAGA kept making it a talking point and the left is like, “Yes, let’s go there” and lost moderate fence sitters in the process. So MAGA comes to power and now our trans citizens are denied the ability to serve in the armed forces. This timeline pisses me off in so many ways.

    The left was too enthusiastic about trans rights, they should’ve been more open to transphobes. I don’t know who they mean by ”the left”, because if they mean Kamala & co, they weren’t committed to defending trans rights at all.

    The kicker is that this person’s example of trans people losing their rights is being able to join the military clown

      I swear liberals have a literally backwards understanding of politics. To them, the point isn’t to put someone into power who will represent their interests. Instead the goal is always to pander to just the right set of incoherent interests in order to put someone into power.

      And they’re not even fucking good at it.

    I’m not surprised. I’m just annoyed they said it after taking my money

    If it’s not surprising to you, maybe you should have checked to see if the thing you kind of expected to happen was going to happen? Also this bozo paid his dues to the national org and was rejected by the local org. Also SRA is pretty lib already.
