If you're the royal family of Saudi Arabia, worth $1.4 trillion, Trump rewards your family with F-35 fighter jets after they ordered the murder of a Washington Post journalist. If you're a 62-year old couple in America whose premiums will quadruple? Tough luck. America first?

I'm not sure I'll ever get over this country basically destroying itself over LGBT rights because we're "groomers & pedophiles" and then loudly defending actual groomers and pedophiles. It's monstrous.

I wish I could impress on younger generations right now just how unprecedented this is. This level of corruption is not normal - it’s like nothing that has happened in American history, and it is stealing from your future. No one should grow up thinking this is normal.

Pakistan had a rocky relationship with Trump. Then it signed lobbying contracts worth millions with his ex-business partners & bodyguard @KeithSchiller45. After that, it got tariff relief & a WH lunch for its top military leader with Trump. @pranavbask: nytimes.com/2025/11/13/wor…

The irony is, as usual, they label us with their own projections. Ideology is when you deny scientific consensus and lived experiences because it doesn't fit your worldview. Another indication? Ideologies are imposed via legislation to curb what happens naturally.

If someone says “gender ideology” one more time like it means something, I’m going to lose my mind. Stop pretending like there’s not an entire scientific literature on gender identity and gender dysphoria. They’re trying to ban the teaching of that scientific literature.

Hollywood is like our politics and far too many other industries: having the life squeezed out it by the desiccated grasping hands of old rich white men who don't actually care what audiences want, and don't have to because of consolidation, tech, and Wall Street.

I used to always say that Hollywood only cares about money, but despite several reports every year proving that female led and diverse casts outperform at the box office, we are back to where we before Oscars so White and Me Too. Which means ...

Randall Park says Hollywood keeps “taking the wrong lessons” from successful movies. “For example, ‘BARBIE’ is this massive blockbuster, and the idea is: Make more movies about toys! No. Make more movies by and about women!”

The cycle is simple: run on the claim that government can’t work, get elected, make sure it doesn’t work, reward the corporations funding your campaigns, then get re-elected by pointing to the dysfunction you created as proof government is broken and blame Democrats. Repeat.

@broadwaybabyto There actually is a logic and it's important we understand it from their perspective, because that's the only way we can expose the actual issues with it, rather than shout hypocrisy to deaf ears: x.com/SmartAssJen/st…

Many believe it is "natural" for men to be sexually attracted to girls from puberty on, and that stigmatization, even of acting upon it, is an arbitrary social construct (eg variable "age of consent" laws). It's frowned upon, but understood, because it's "natural".

I grew up arguing with my southern Republican family about policy and political philosophy. Then it became all about "values" because Clinton was sleazy. And now R's are utterly defined by total fealty to the most corrupt, venal, and predatory President to ever hold office.

Matt Gaetz, who is now accused of paying a homeless minor for sex, was Donald Trump's top pick for Attorney General. There are no coincidences.

My mother-in-law refuses to believe guns are the leading cause of death for American children. She believes it's drugs and sex trafficking. By "illegals". Because of Democrats. She is still defending Trump.

Before the ACA I couldn't get any insurance at all. Not even an expensive plan that only covered catastrophes. Because I was trans. I still have the letter saying they "couldn't adequately price a plan for someone with my condition." That's illegal thanks to the ACA.

I think part of why the Epstein files are so damaging is because MAGA spent the last four years labeling everything pedophilia except for having sex with literal children

Saying the Right is hypocritical for thinking trans/queer kids can't know themselves while also defending grown men having sex with girls will fall on deaf ears because they believe the latter is natural. Make them say it.

@AriDrennen I think I'm a bit of a coward and largely stopped posting as it became more and more toxic here, so I'm sure you're right.

I'm beginning to think shadow banning is a real thing, because despite 50k followers earned over 15 years, my posts here get zero engagement. My TikTok was hacked and I can't get it back. And I've had no traction on Bluesky or threads either. I'm just shouting into the void.

@loialtoafault Thank you, I appreciate that! I went quiet over the last few years as hate became the norm here, and I understand that the algorithm prefers regular posting. But it's frustrating to feel silenced.

We should ask anyone defending Epstein or Trump, like Megyn Kelly today, WHY they think it's okay for adult men to want girls, but not for adult men and women to want each other. Bring this attitude into the light and challenge it.

It's not hypocritical to think a trans or gay kid is a deviant, and Trump is a great man, because in their worldview all men are naturally like Trump, and only trauma, sin, or perversion is at the root of happily adjusted trans & gay people in consenting relationships.
