  • This sounds like why I don't talk to my family.

    Or more accurately, why they (thankfully) choose not to talk to me. Because I'm more than happy to be considered the 'know it all' because I bother to rub two braincells together and force them to have to spark a thought to defend themselves.

  • "This chaos isn't what I signed up for" says people who voted for chaos goblin who told people he wanted chaos

    Get entirely fucked trump voters. As well as the people who told me that BoTh SiDeS aRe ThE sAmE and TrUmP wIlL nOt Be WoRsE tHaN GeNoCiDe JoE oR KiLlEr KaMaLa

    The "I told you so"s will never be worth it.

  • Sitting out was a choice as so was voting for murderers with blood on their hands.

    So instead you get to keep your spotless morals while many, many more people die than would have if you made a realistic choice instead of throwing the voter equivalent of a tantrum

    If you always make the good choice you will have no regrets because that is what you are supposed to do.

    If you have no regrets with the way this turned out, I question the contents or existence of your morals.

    I voted Kamala and have no regrets with my choice, only regrets aimed at the people who claim to be my compatriots condemning millions to suffering while being high and mighty about it.

  • Inaction is still a choice, so not voting means you're ok with this. Voting or not voting, you still made your choice in November and here we are.

    People saying and persuading others to vote for murderers with blood on their hands are much bigger spineless coward with no morals.

    That's the most bullshit argument to justify your shitty choices and is textbook DARVO. Not voting for the lesser murderer means we get an even bigger one who will actively increase the suffering, and it's hilarious to me how you're trying to pretend that voting to prevent more genocide is cowardly. But cowards love to pretend they're not cowards and blame others when they don't have the stones to make hard decisions. And lol, using morality to justify letting trump genocide people home and abroad shows you have none.

  • I want to say I'm amazed at the shit fucking takes to justify awful choices that directly lead to a fascist overthrow in response to your comment. But these types love to justify their choices even though they directly lead to an open fascist takeover of our country because BoTh SiDeS bAd because they couldn't be bothered to engage in harm reduction and are ok with Gaza getting glassed and a probable trans genocide at home.

    Fuck anyone who uses genocide to justify the situation where we now get more genocide, they never actually cared about it in the first place aside from talking points. Either that, or talk is more important than action. Either way, their opinions are meaningless to me as I help my trans homies survive.

  • Abdul expressed frustration that Trump’s focus on divisive issues, rather than economic policies, is making it harder for Black supporters to defend him.

    Big "he's not hurting the people he's supposed to hurt" energy.

    Also, really hard to feel any sympathy and respond with anything other than

    Because we all fucking knew this is what he was going to do. Anyone who supported him and is surprised doesn't necessarily need to be laughed at, but I'm not exactly going to be very sympathetic to them getting the shit we knew was coming. They're just mad that it wasn't chocolate ice cream they opened up for...

  • Yep. The 13th amendment didn't abolish slavery like we're taught in schools, but made it so you could be legally enslaved as a punishment for committing crimes. They then just happened to make shit like "walking around at night while black" or "being unemployed and black" crimes that they could imprison you for and make you a slave again.

  • If you're not out yet, it's not necessarily an issue, but masking hurts them a lot mentally after a while. Those who are already out but haven't changed their documents have to go back to masking (assuming they're willing to) to move forward with getting updated documents. And gods forbid you've started the process but it's not completed, because they might straight up take your docs and tell you to fuck off.

  • I only see an issue with it if you are in-between getting the identification modified as the gears of beaucrarcy grind very slow

    Or, you know, you live in a red state that fights tooth and nail to not update that information, all in the hopes that this day would eventually come.

    Updating your vital records is a state level item, and the process will vary by state, and that's a requirement to get it changed on your Federal passport. Please don't forget that a large amount of states have been trying to pretend these people don't exist, and now the federal government is trying to help make that a reality. For an example of the difficulties as reported 3 years ago:


    States requiring proof of surgery, court order or altered birth certificate to change gender marker on driver’s licenses

    Georgia.
    Guam (U.S. Territory).
    Iowa.
    Kentucky.
    Louisiana.
    Northern Mariana Islands (U.S. Territory).
    South Carolina.
    Tennessee.
    Texas.

    States requiring proof of surgery, court order or altered birth certificate to change gender marker on birth certificates

    Alabama.
    Arizona.
    Arkansas.
    Georgia.
    Guam (U.S. Territory).
    Iowa.
    Kentucky.
    Louisiana.
    Missouri.
    Nebraska.
    New Hampshire.
    North Carolina.
    North Dakota.
    Wisconsin.

    States barring residents from amending their gender designation on official documents

    Montana.
    Oklahoma.
    Tennessee.
    West Virginia


    I'll note again that this was 3 years ago, before the massive wave of anti-trans legislation in the last couple of years.
