What are the odds this new "weird" trend gets redirected to us?

[–] [email protected] 14 points 6 months ago

They’ve been trying but they can’t help being weird about it so it hasn’t really worked

[–] [email protected] 13 points 6 months ago

...we are literally called Weird.

By the people wanting to inspect children's genitals at bathrooms and locker-rooms?

It doesn't sting quite as hard because it's not like we're trying very hard to conform to social norms in the first place. But that's the modality of a Trump supporter, apparently, going by how bothered they seem to be about such an innocuous term

That's true, like, I know queer people tend to embrace weirdness and transgressiveness because people see us that way regardless. But my question is more whether this little campaign will just slide off the backs of conservatives and be redirected to us like a lot of cultural policing does.

I have no problems being weird, I have problems being conflated with "left fascists" for arbitrary Harry-Potter-esque reasons like not passing or conforming to lib sensibilities of propriety.

It doesn't seem to be sliding off their backs at all, apparently it's quite wounding to how they conceive of themselves.

Waiting to see if it lasts longer than people caring about Trump's ear, tbh.

I've been weird all my life comrade-raccoon what people dont understand they'll deem weird.

If I wasn't weird I wouldn't be who I am.. I embrace my strangeness, quirks and eccentricities.

[–] [email protected] 6 points 6 months ago

My thoughts exactly comrade-raccoon

[–] [email protected] 8 points 6 months ago

everything always does

The more offputting misanthropy the GOP pundits pull to deflect, the more that attack works against them. I wouldn’t worry too much.
