I assumed it was just "hire more LGBTQIA+ prison guards!" so-true

It's worse than that. What I've seen recently because of federation is "(verbal performative) support for disadvantaged people as long as they maintain a successful small business in a disadvantaged area for no less than three years and aren't anywhere to the left of Bernie Sanders!"

If you guys aren't trump supporters.

The fact that we don't do "le Cheeto mosquito Mussolini has tiny hands and IS GAY, he's definitely going to jail! And he's going to be abused in there lol" doesn't mean we're trump supporters.
To most users here, there is no difference between Trump and Biden they are about equally reprehensible. Trump highlighted how the people voting for Dems don't actually give a shit about what is done, as long as the person doing it wears a suit and tones down their slurs a little bit. Trump highlighted how absurd the whole system is.
Users on this site are sick of the whole system, they think it's rotten, but there's also an attitude of powerlessness - to an extent. Since we can't make America balkanize immediately, we can either choose to laugh or cry at the absurdity. That's also why you'll se discussions of Trump being incarcerated not taken seriously - we know it's never going to happen.
That's also why there's an extent of giddiness that Ron Desantis is losing - He had the backing of the media apparatus for quite some time, despite being a clear-cut fascist.

You claim to be Marxists, yet you never say shit about the rise of Fascism in America.

We barely do anything else, you just don't want to see it because it would challenge your incredibly narrow worldview. Easier for you to sling baseless accusations around than to do some self crit.

Where are the "Republicans this, Republicans that" posts?

Republicans are liberals you dolt. If you wanna engage in discussions of politics, please acquire a base-level understanding of what the terms you use mean.

Your kind is mad at the Barbie movie FFS. Fucking Barbie.

Find me one (1) post here on this site being mad that Barbie is woke or whatever.
