over-emphasizing issues like transgender rights

I know this isn’t the point of the article, but it’s distressing that the average Democrat voter also believes that minimal defense of trans rights from existential threats is over-emphasis.

But on that morning in March, Guardado got a strange phone call at work. Some sort of public safety officer had dialed her office and wanted her to come outside to talk. In the parking lot, three men in plain clothes identified themselves as Department of Public Safety officers, Correa told The War Horse. As Shirly approached, they said her car had been involved in an accident. But when she got close, they grabbed her and handcuffed her, telling her they were ICE agents.

The fuck.

Perhaps, just maybe, a toddler tantrum over a losing campaign paying production costs to performer’s crews just like every campaign does, perhaps that’s an attempt at deflection from the goddamn president of the United States accepting a luxury airplane from a foreign government which is explicitly forbidden by law.

I hate them all, for much the same reason. They’re all packed full of ads, even if you’re paying top dollar (I count auto playing trailers for shows I’m not watching). Search is buried on purpose to make you look through the content that they want you to watch. They only have one or two good shows running new episodes at a time, so you have to bounce around between subscriptions, or forget about them and run up your credit card bill. Good shows get canceled all the time due to obscure metrics. Stremio + addons beats them all by a lot. If you want me to pay for streaming, make it worth it again.

Guess we will see what happens because this administration is creating a lot of desperate people in a country awash in firearms.

What happens is likely to be violence against trans people, immigrants, and minorities who will be scapegoats for breaking the social safety net.

Pretty sure that Britain got on its Brexit bullshit before Trump was elected.

DoE gets in the way of funneling the money to the churches corporations.

Let’s not kid ourselves, the churches will get some money for taking the poor kids, but the goal is to privatize education so that corporations can profit from schooling even more than they already have.

Why is this a gendered question?

America!

it took me a full minute to parse this headline

how the fuck can republicans want him for president?

Maybe because the Russians backed him as their candidate in 2016, 2020, and now in 2024 (the enemy of my enemy and all that), the Russians have been buying Republican support wholesale since at least then, the Republicans have always valued money and power over all else, and the few Republicans who had qualms about it are long gone?

Just some ideas.
