      The genocide usually comes after the normalization of exclusion, and forcing them to out themselves, and arresting them if they don’t.

      After that stuff, it’s armbands, and then “Take a train ride to this new work camp!”

      We’re moving in that direction. That’s why we’re saying that word.

      People thought the worries about Trump were overblown too, and look how that worked out. He bribed the Supreme Court into giving him immunity from the law. He’s turning the White House into a bunker. He started a war with a country with 90 million people. He started a trade war with every democratic country on earth. He lost the biggest oil shipping lane in the world. He can’t get it back without using nukes. The Epstein files are still more than half unreleased. Not a single man has been prosecuted for any crimes because of them. There is no plan to release the rest of the files. More victims have been named than perpetrators. This regime doesn’t JUST protect rich pedophiles and fraudsters, it also gives them pardons. Meanwhile he’s destroying our relationships with every free country on earth and giving favors to dictatorships. He openly glazes and admires places whose governments regularly brutalize innocent civilians.

      If he just came out and told you straight up he’s a dictator and he won’t give up power and he wants to turn America into a dictatorship where rich people own and control everything and everyone else is literal slaves…

      You’d say he was joking. Or that it was AI. Or that it was some kind of tactic to influence or manipulate one of our enemies. Or… whatever.

      Your disregard for potential harm leads to him. It leads to people like him preying on your prideful ignorance and childish impatience, and using it to convince you to betray everything of value until you become an evil person without realizing it.

      Just… stop. Look at a news source that they don’t want you to… for once. Ask your friends about what you found in it. See how they respond. See how you’ve become.

      I get the womens rights angle but cis women have it pretty easy compared to trans women (and trans men).

      Demanding an ‘exclusive female place’ is entitled and basically the cisfemale equivalent of white privilege. Especially when unisex facilities have existed for decades without incidence.
