The share of Republicans and Republican-leaning independents who believe that President Joe Biden’s 2020 election win was not legitimate has ticked back up, according to a new CNN poll fielded throughout July. All told, 69% of Republicans and Republican-leaners say Biden’s win was not legitimate, up from 63% earlier this year and through last fall, even as there is no evidence of election fraud that would have altered the outcome of the contest.

For one you don’t have to look over your shoulder when holding your partner’s hand in public.

Is that a right?

You don’t have politicians calling you a pedo.

I'm a conservative asian in a very liberal city. I've been called every sort of name. Does that mean conservative asians don't have rights?

You could have married her at any point.

No, there was a time when interracial marriage was illegal.

You don’t have to worry about losing your job or housing for being queer depending on where you live.

That's illegal. Once again, you and I have the same rights, you're not proving your point at all.

You don’t have to worry about your kids being taken away from you because you’re gay and your state doesn’t think your kids are safe.

Where is this an issue?

I’m really surprised at how ignorant your gf is about que er issues. Are you sure she’s queer or did she just kiss a girl once.

Are you the lord of queers and you deem who is actually queer or not? She's very involved in the community, she just doesn't lie like you do.

"Tru.p state department appealed federal ruling recognizing the citizenship of a girl born to a gay couple.

Trump banned trans folks from serving in the army.

Trump remixes anti-discrimination protections from HHS.

Trump admin adopted regulation that gender is biological sex, it isn’t.

Trump blamed the Orlando Pulse shooting on radical Islam when it was a home grown mass murderer.

Trump SCOTUS noms are hostile to gay equality and advocate ridiculous religious liberty arguments.

Trump’s VP supported conversation therapy, which is torture.

Trump rescinded protections for gay workers, so they could be fired just for being gay.

Trump admin argued Civil Rights Act doesn’t protect queer people.

Trump fired the WH Office of National AIDS Policy. He also ignored the impact HIV/AIDS had on the LGBTQ community on World AIDS Day."

You listed all of these, but you can't name one single right that I have that you don't.

Just tell me one right, man. You keep beating around the bush and trying to dig up things you don't like. That doesn't mean someone is trying to take away your rights. It's really simple: List one right that I, a straight person, has that you don't.
