If MAGA folks could read, they'd be very upset right now.

That being said: the harm is the point.

I don't believe Republicans are making that argument (or any other argument) in good faith though, I think it's just old fashioned "hate of the other" with the dog whistle of the week.

The easiest people to fool are people who think they are to smart to be fooled.

Well shit, I keep forgetting and when reminded say "no fuck y'all you can't just change the gulf's name" and I don't appreciate the implications here (fair though they may be, I have ADHD and I'm bad with names, so I don't remember your dead name nor your new name nor your gender if it's a tricky one until like the 5th time we meet... no judgement I'm just bad with names, you don't even need to know mine, just make one up who cares.)

Swap the position of the two acts in the sentence and see if you agree/this is a fair comparison

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 days ago (1 children)

"it's" means "it is". The possessive form of "it" is "its".

Like: "The administration exceeded its authority by issuing an executive order that actually required a law to be passed."

It's confusing because normally a possessive in English does use apostrophe and s.

It was Schwitter before and it's Xhitter now so not much difference for me.
