Gee, I wonder why they are turning to more extremism?
I’m not saying this isn’t reason for alarm and action, but this seems very desperate.
The Stonewall riot proved that the Queer Community were not violent - until pushed too far. I have seen little to no violent activity from that marginalized group in the news (and truly they would make sure people knew so long as it wasn’t a white straight male), making this false attack to rile up hatred. But people will only remain defensive for so long. It will end up finally giving these conservative groups what they want - actual violence, and a reason to push harder. It worked well for Israel, so why not do a pogrom here, too?
Oh yes men in dresses makeup and heels are deadlier than assassins. What are they going to do? Gag you to death with their caustic wit? Read you to filth? Do a death drop right in front of you? Kill you with kindness and vegan makeup. You’ll be blinded to death by bold color eye shadow. Take a deadly shit in a women’s restroom, fuch some hunk so hard your eyes will bleed?
This is truly the party of fools. Maybe the aliens are coming to eradicate earth of all this suffering at the hands of idiots.
Look, I saw that one movie with Michelle Rodriguez.

Says the furniture pervert
you mean vice president couch fucker?
No. I meant furniture pervert He neither deserves nor has earned the title he currently holds
fair enough, I don’t know why I even used that, considering I refuse to use it for the fat orange fuck.
Breaking News!! Man that wears makeup is afraid of other men that wear makeup.
Didn’t this guy get shot in the throat? Awful talkative.
Not yet, unfortunately.
That was Charlie Kirk, the other mouthpiece.
and in europe they want to remove everyones privacy. what could possibly go wrong???
Full quote:
In a clip from the interview posted to X by journalist Ken Klippenstein, Watters asked the vice president whether he considers “the militant transgender movement” to be a “domestic terrorist threat.”
“If you are encouraging people to commit acts of violence against the United States government or against your fellow Americans, absolutely. You’re involved in a terrorist movement,” Vance responded.Not that I don’t think violence against trans people is absolutely his intention, thankfully, he didn’t manage to vocalize that specifically to his base, nor is he capable of doing it himself - he’s still very scared of getting sued for hate speech or libel, or for anything hate-related to happen under his direct watch. The quote was basically “If you’re a terrorist, you’re a terrorist!” with numerous wording twists to hope bigots would take further implication.
My point being, keep fighting them for being transphobic, but please don’t reach the level of fear at which you become afraid of daily life.
Ken Klippenstein is citing two inside sources who claim Trump is about to designate trans people as “violent extremists,” and that the FBI will target them, and that is a bit scarier. I think the queer community actually needs to be highly alert and paying attention in the coming days, unfortunately.
I can’t argue with his response in a vacuum. But the lack of any sort of attempt to make it not just about trans is exactly what I would expect.
He could’ve added “any” in there, but he didn’t.
Surely now democrats will stand up for trans people.
Kamala will keep saying “I’ll follow the law” on trans people, as she enforces the law sending us all to camps.
Best they’ll do is offer to paint a 🌈 on the side of a UAV.
We did it, Reddit!
With stern letters.
You need a spine to stand
sure, just gotta wait for the committee to roll out where all the Dems can sit on it and spew awesome quotes for the media and then do…jack all.
OR they’ll utilize the system that the GOP have pretty but shown to completely ignore.
OR Americans maybe can FINALLY stand up and protect their fellow Americans that are now under attack and are at valid risk of being executed en masse.
lol who am I kidding, we know NONE of this is going to happen.
They’d have to stand up for themselves first.
Oh they do that plenty. Against the left.
democrats are useless fucks. they are so fucking impotent and complacent it makes me want to puke.
democrats are useless fucks.
Unless your name is netanyahu. Then they’ll ignore the Leahy law to make sure you get everything you need to genocide Palestinians for them.
In all other things, you can count on them to make up some procedural bullshit to stand in their own way.
It won’t let me edit, so I’ll reply instead:
“EDIT”: Nope. They’re blaming people who spoke out against genocide, regardless of how they voted. Like always. We were all there for the 2024 election. Everyone saw the constant barrage of vicious attacks from the right against trans people. The silence from democrats was more deafening than Krakatoa. And now democratic think tanks are starting to talk about dropping even the fake solidarity with trans people.
Vance feels terrorized by LGBQT? Send in RuPaul!
One of the foundations of capitalism is the strict enforcement of gender binary, and the move from matriarchy to patriarchy (from men needing to enforce monogamy for women, to know who their children are, to ensure passing down and consolidating of wealth)
so yeah trans people, gender non conforming folks, and people practicing non monogamy are a threat to the system, but not in the way theyre proposing
read the origin of the family by F Engles, there’s also a section in transgender warriors by L Leinberg
Well if you start treating them like terrorists, some might choose that path. It is a very possible self-fulfilling prophecy. Especially when you threaten their lives like that.
That’s most likely the intention behind this. The right would be elated about news of actual trans terrorists.
Yeah, it’s a pretty classic move. Persecute a group of people until inevitably some of them fight back, then point at that to show “see, they’re violent, so we have to crush them out of existence with as much cruelty as possible!”
Been watching this playbook in real-time in Palestine my entire life.
And they’d still be a republican
This guy is such a slob and a loser. A lazy-do-nothing. Seriously, if he was not vice president, any reasonable person would tell him to shut up about his petty thoughts and go do something useful. and we have to listen to his BS. Goddamit.
coming from someone that plays a drag-queen in college, and has a beTERt eyeliner than USHA VANCE.
whelp guess i gotta pull FBI aggro as a harmless cis white dude
