What politicizing? That he is a narsassistic asshole? He's also a psychopath, like all billionaires.

I don't really know what you are even saying. Being autistic does not make you do nazi salutes then joke about it with puns when called out on it.

Lets be honest, most of the people who get stiff when looking at guns support this. They were always going to bend over for authoritarians because if authoritarians took over the government they were going to be right wing.

The Nazis were also extremely incompetent when I came to stuff like this. Hitler had generals scrambling behind his back to produce their best weapon, but he kept finding out and making them stop along with tons of other micromanaging.

Trump is an idiot and so is musk. Most business people are short sighted and fascists even more. They also may be high on their own farts and think the system won't collapse with them "in charge" like a toddler left in s room full of candles and napalm.

Not saying that foreign powers aren't loving this, but they don't have to have control over it.

I hate a lot of people for different reasons.

I hate the people who voted for him, but they are not the majority.

I hate the people who stayed home. I get it. Harris had issues. But so many were saying they didn't want it vote for her because of Gaza. Now, Gaza will get glassed while we have so many more problems at home.

Personally, I don't care if it seems selfish, I do not have the capacity to care about Gaza anymore. The only chance we had was convincing Harris. Now I'm too worried about what will happen to me and my friends as queer people.

And that's before we get to the general economic issues. Shit is about to get really desperate for everyone.

So many of us tried to get those people to see. I'm positive much of the Gaza stance was being pushed by the right to split the left. We'll it worked. They fell for it. Now we have even more issues.

I can not say this with any more virtiol: fuck anyone who didn't vote for Harris, regardless of the reason, but especially if it was an active decision because of Gaza. You both actively made things worse for Gaza and doomed us all.

You wanted shortsighted smug feel goods about taking a moral high ground. In doing so, you paved the way for fascism and laid down the fucking red carpet.

As a queer woman in the US, I currently care infinitely more what the US gov and companies track about me than what China does.

Ah, good old "both sides" argument. Half the reason we are in this mess.

I've no love lost for cops, but I also have no sympathy left in me while I wonder if I'm going to be able to keep my job, access healthcare, and generally exist as myself in society without someone decided to attack me. Fuck him, fuck the cop. There are no innocents in this story.

So I'm going to take some catharsis in that one of the people who would likely have murdered me or anyone like me in the future is gone.

I'm white, but also trans. Currently preparing to move across country to a state where I hope to maintain some rights.

I'm privileged enough to be able to do that, but I also am aware that my job may be at risk with everything going on. This last week has me anxious enough that my ADHD medication is barely doing anything to help me focus on most tasks.

It's the same shit MLK said about the white moderate. Anyone fine and comfy is perfectly OK with other people being denied rights because doing something to fix it means upsetting the status quo and stuff might end up a bit harder for them.

Meanwhile, so many people getting deported means we are about to enter in a massive food shortage and price hike that will effect them. But they will rationalize like they always do that this wasn't something they could have forseen desire the rest of us telling them exactly what was going to happen.

For fuck sake, there were people like that who basically claimed we were crazy for quoting the shit trump said he was going to do. Saying it was hyperbole. Like Trump even knows what that is.

I don't know much about it either, but in general conservatives and the right at large have no media literacy. Everything is shallow and face value to them. They see pro military crushing stuff deemed "lesser" and they basically get off on it.

It's the same reason for right wing star trek fans. They see space military and ignore all the themes and other things like the fact there is no capitalism. It's always pushed left ideas, yet only now it's "gone woke" because it's pushing modern left ideas, not stiff they've learned to ignore.

Just look at any media made by conservatives for conservatives. It's terrible and the kind of wish fulfillment youd expect from a child telling a story.

See, for me hunger is an all consuming distraction. There have been very few times I get so hyper focused I forget to eat.

Medication helps, but I still get hungry and crave chocolate.

And here my barely awake trans ass was wondering why the crow was talking about estrogen 😅.

I need coffee.

I actually learned of that whole thing directly from vanta and the idea people would claim she's some white tech bro is low key hilarious.

But the straight media tends to ignore queer movements in general.

This is only because of republican propaganda, which they only did because young people did political coordination on ticktok.
