It's the dunk tank.
This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.
Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.
Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.
Rule 3: No sectarianism.
Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome
Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)
Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.
Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.
Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml
Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
Whatever support Democrats give to trans people is nothing compared to the money they dump on the transphobic fascist police and military. The Democrats and Republicans represent the same class interests. They might sometimes talk a different way, but the policy outcomes are indistinguishable.
I get your point -- it's not enough -- but this isn't nothing. The article talks about people coming in from other states to take advantage of these laws, so we have evidence it's not nothing.
We have to understand how disconnected we look when we say "this is actually no different from Florida." The better approach is "sure, Democrats are better, but they're awful in 10 other ways and they will never do enough, fast enough."
Yeah I'm thankful I live in Communist Minnesota and would be devastated if it flipped red. Yes they are libs like the rest, and yes they will lay down and let us die when push comes to shove, but for right now I vastly prefer being allowed to get my medications and exist in public over not being able to do those things.
