The political satire doesn’t make me laugh so much as it crushes my spirit.

Civil rights for black people alienate the working class

—same satirical headline in the 50s

In less than ten years, I saw three of my cousins transition. This seemed to correspond neatly with trans-rights being mainstreamed as a social issue. Almost as though there are a lot of trans-people, many of whom were simply in the closet until the moment it became socially acceptable to be themselves.

Huh. I've met this guy on lemmy.

Why subtweet Hillary Clinton on this one? It’s almost an exact quote.

Trans rights are human rights, working class are human.

Yes I ate the onion but I know well meaning 'progressives' like this and they infuriate me

Bold of you to call terminally online MLs democrats.

Republicans obviously think persecuting trans people is a winning issue. Should Democrats not put a comparable amount of effort into defending them?
