No, that's not hyperbole, the folks who invented the term genocide have said were already in the middle of one for trans Americans. I won't be party to my own oppression, so I say to all these Dems, "Trans rights or else! Earn our votes or not, but don't blame us for the consequences."

Me, and lots of other trans folks have been pretty clear this time around that we won't vote for these people. This is our life and ability to exist in public the Republicans and these quisling Democrats are trying to destroy. They're following along on Project 2025's plan for social genocide.

FATALITY
A tweet from Joyce Carol Oates: overall takeaway from the Curtis Yarvin profile is that there must be millions of smart-aleck show-offy kids who annoy their teachers and go on to annoy other adults through their lives with their “contrarian” pose that hardens to a carapace over their faces; until, as adults, they still harbor a delusion that, if there is a king, or a fuhrer, he’d be impressed with the guys motor mouth and appoint him to his cabinet rather than deleting him with a negligent swipe of his wrist as Stalin did routinely.

A very interesting admission: Abdul won't recognize the right of Noah's bugbear emotional support state to possess an exclusionary legal and political character to the detriment of 50% of the people under its control, therefore Abdul is a bigot. Fascinating!

This aligns exactly with what we know about noncitizen voting; it is extremely rare (9 noncitizen votes in MN out of 3,253,920 in the 2024 election, or 0.0002%), and when it occurs it’s most often green card holders who were mistakenly told they could vote (none of these people are undocumented).
