    To be fair, a person can be highly upset about Trump and uncomfortable (but much less so) about the transgender bathroom thing. Just a reminder that it’s not a binary world and people are allowed to be imperfect.

    I’m more concerned with the rapist felon running our country than men using women’s bathrooms. Women already use men’s bathrooms so…

      Okay, but hear me out: I don’t live in fear of rapists and rapists usually don’t fit in the box of “people I fantasize about boning in my dream world where I have some overinflated value.” What if I imagine myself being naked with a woman who used to have a penis? What if people with penises imagine being naked with ME?? I’m scared! I need to vote for a criminal representative of my shittiest expectations again!

    Try mentioning to Jo that Biden molested his daughter.

    It’s not that she’s against cults. She’s just upset about a rival cult.

      There is no Biden cult; most dems and leftists fucking hate him.

      Got a source for the molestation? First I’ve heard of it. I remember some flimsy story from some other woman that ended up being completely unsubstantiated.

        What is defending a politician committing a genocide, if not cult behavior?

        https://nypost.com/2022/07/08/portrait-of-the-bidens-a-family-as-dysfunctional-as-the-kennedys-and-protected-by-the-press/

        The Ashley Biden diary is the most recent example of a blanket media blackout, a July 2019 excerpt going viral two weeks ago. Read this and defend it as non-newsworthy:
        “Was I molested,” the author writes. “I think so — I can’t remember specifics but I do remember trauma. Hyper-sexualized @ a young age . . . I remember being somewhat sexualized with Caroline; I remember having sex with friends @ a young age; showers w/my dad (probably not appropriate).”

          Amidst zero people defend the genocide, hence the part where I pointed out that most people hate him. Are you fucking stupid or something? Do you think that turning every conversation about literally everything into a conversation about Gaza will do absolutely anything about the situation at all?

          Everybody knows it’s horrific. Everybody hates it. I hate it. I can’t fucking stop it, voting for, or supporting, either party wasn’t going to fix it (though one side campaigned on turbo charging it, which still makes them the objectively worse choice ethically and morally), so all I can do is focus on the other things that could change and be better.

          I’m so fucking tired of you morons derailing every conversation to tell us everything we already know because you’re too stupid to understand that other things still exist.

          It’s people having a different opinion of events than you do. A cult is more like when your group thinks it’s clearly, obviously, inarguably wrong not to see everything through your lens. That’s a cult.

        That’s the point. You never cared about his crimes, because Blue MAGA is just another version of the Red MAGA cult.

        Exactly. You don’t talk about your own sides crimes, because you don’t actually care about the crimes. It’s just partisan bullshit games.

        I’m a leftist. I’m not in the Red or Blue MAGA cult.

          Your weirdly adversarial comments only effectively help sow the discord between “red” and “blue”.

          Besides, at exactly what point did I say I picked a side? Hint: I didn’t. I’m me, not some arbitrary label for a box someone wants to shove me into. I don’t what care what label you pick, even “leftist”, the moment you let them assign you to a box, you’ve lost.

            You’re not a very good astroturfer. You have to pick a lane. You wanna accuse me of being divisive, or be divisive yourself and dissuade people from collaborating.

            Red and blue are on the same side. They’re with the fascists. But if you look at polling and voter turnout, most people in this country don’t support either one.

              I’m the to astroturfer, yet you keep assigning everyone their appropriate label.

              And, fuck right off with the collaboration shit; running around screaming about whatever crimes, real or imaginary, ain’t collaboration.

              But, hey, guess what? You win! Cause I’m not replying anymore cause I’m blocking your stupid ass. Enjoy fucking right the hell off…

                Read the room. People aren’t buying your pro-Dem bs anymore.

                It’s not left vs right. It’s top vs bottom, and we’re finally making significant progress in convincing people of that fact.

              Your post history show exactly what you are doing here.

              Republicans and Democrats may not be the two best options but one is definitely better than the other and no amount of both sidesing will change that fact.

                Nope. They’re one and the same. And people should abandon both.

                You don’t need to look at my post history- I’ll tell you openly what I want to do. I want to wake people up to the fact the it’s a uniparty masquerading as two, to keep us divided and prevent a working class revolution.

                I also want to build support for delivering the criminals in both parties to The Hague to stand trial for their crimes against humanity.

                  Your entries in the modlog are all bans for ban evasion and for misinformation.

                  The misinformation bans are for basically parroting Kremlin talking points about NATO, the CIA and Ukrainians self-identifying as Nazis.

                  I also want to build support for delivering the criminals in both parties to The Hague to stand trial for their crimes against humanity.

                  But you want to repeat Putin’s lies? Seems like there is a glaring hypocrisy there, buds.
