I'll preface this by saying it's just a guess, I have no evidence for this idea, but maybe it's because tobacco doesn't cause social disorder in the same way as alcohol. Nobody ever got into a fight because they smoked too many cigs yknow?

Can you explain this dogwhistle to those of us not in the know so we can recognize it in the future?
John Hughes is rolling and shitting and pissing in his grave that you said it was in New York. They go to Sears tower, they watch a Cubs game, what more could he have done???
They may seem far away but don't forget that the frozen tundra where almost no one lives is also technically Canada and closer to Ruzzia so we have to DEFEND CANADIAN SOVEREIGNTY IN THE ARCTIC so that we can open the mines and oil wells and MAKE CANADA AN ENERGY SUPERPOWER as soon as it's warm enough. If that doesn't convince you, doesn't matter, it's Ukrainophobic to not want war with Ruzzia
Had some purple potatoes a few days ago and they were sick as hell
From this picture he seems happy about it. He is probably in a lot of pain. I know it can be hard to accept, but it's time. This is the right thing to do.
"How unsafe it is to ask questions" are you for real
Please grow up. Criticism of the niche internet celebrity you have a parasocial relationship with on a social media site with a userbase that doesn't even crack 6 figures is not a real problem.
Countless trans people facing unimaginably greater levels of persecution and with far less privilege than Natalie somehow manage not to deny the Palestinian genocide
Then I'm confused as to what the reason was for bringing it up
As another trans person disgusted by this blatant attempt to use our identity to excuse or deflect from genocide denial, you put it all into words far better than I could have. Thank you comrade. The implication that people aware of the true scale and horror of this genocide are simply exposing themselves to violent content for some kind of sick pleasure is especially disgusting, thank you for calling it out.
Is the mention of trans genocide meant to imply that as a result trans people are currently beyond criticism? Even when they themselves are downplaying or borderline denying a different genocide?
There's definitely a lot of classism and discrimination against homeless people at work in situations like this, but yeah, it's hard to deny that this isn't a factor as well. In the restaurant situation for example, it's easy to see how the owners would think that giving free food to a visibly homeless person would lead to them coming back repeatedly asking for more food, while giving free food to a person in a suit might lead to them coming back as a paying customer. It's an unfortunate situation, and evidence I think of why charity can't be the solution to such things. Only systemic change can.
