REMINDER: 19 days until Nov 3. Winning the midterm is step one of DESTROYING MAGA. From there we must purge the nation of MAGA. It can NOT be allowed to exist in the USA the same way Nazi was purged from Germany. Period.

It's not "strikingly juvenile" and it's not a "personal broadside." It's hate speech. The Vice President is trying to get people to vote against a Democrat by implying that he's gay and/or a pedophile and/or a fetishist. Take it seriously. It is on a par with every other kind of hate speech.

Trump's new ad offering every adult American $5,000 if the GOP win the midterms is the LEAST illegal thing Trump will do between now and Jan 3 when Democrats are to be sworn in to control Congress. Expect everything from seizing ballots to ordering military to surround US Capitol. Save this post.

All Republicans have to offer voters in the midterms is failure, lies, corruption, cover ups, fear mongering, name calling, enrichment of oligarchs, christian nationalism, racism, data centers everywhere, flock cameras, higher prices, new wars and fake bribes. Hell of a platform.

Florida here. I got the notification on a Friday and the ballot the following Monday. Voted and mailed back on Tuesday. Watching to see how long that takes and to for verification that it was received and counted.

If you’re running against a Christian nationalist it does because there is nothing more dangerous to you and me than that movement. But also, getting elected is the only way you can effect change and then that change convinces more people.

I think he just knows the state he’s running in and the attitudes of the likely voters. Building a coalition is hard… bringing over the moveable voters is necessary work. And someone with good intentions like Talarico who is at least open to conditionally supporting trans women in sports

kphi68.bsky.social @kphi68.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
I just think that people in states like Texas need more convincing than people in California or New York and sometimes the incremental approach that he’s using is better.

kphi68.bsky.social @kphi68.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
I know that and so does he, I’m sure. But convincing the broader public is a different thing. It takes time to win hearts and minds. I want say I appreciate you debating with me because I understand you see this as an existential threat.

kphi68.bsky.social @kphi68.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
You mentioned “Don’t Ask, Don’t Tell” and while it wasn’t a great policy it was miles better than what had been in place before and it gradually made the troops and the public comfortable enough to see its flaws and replace it with something better. That’s how change works.

kphi68.bsky.social @kphi68.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
I’m sorry but I remember the time when there zero protections for gay people in the workplace, in housing or even in your own bedroom. Those rights were won through a strategy of incremental change, pragmatism and achievable steps.

kphi68.bsky.social @kphi68.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
They’re not “made up.” They are real questions and fears that too many people in the general public feel. Are they being exploited by conservatives? Yes. And if they aren’t evidence based they won’t hold up to the kind of scrutiny that Talarico is suggesting.

they're taking away your rights as a backlash to your current strategy.

kphi68.bsky.social @kphi68.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
no, i'm definitely not but i think the strategy is wrong. i think tangible gains in gay and trans legal rights are more important than social acceptance and "equality" because to the broader culture, we'll never actually be socially equal but we can be legally equal.
111
kphi68.bsky.social @kphi68.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
i would say that the current strategy of demanding a new definition of what a woman is and trying to force social acceptance rather than focusing on critical legal protections in housing, employment and personal safety has set trans rights back by a decade or more. which one of us is being stupid?

kphi68.bsky.social @kphi68.bsky.social · 11/09/2026
what he's doing is laying the ground work for more people to become more comfortable with trans kids playing sports. by invoking quantifiable things like safety and fairness which can be substantiated by experts in those areas he is opening a door, not shutting it.

kphi68.bsky.social @kphi68.bsky.social · 10/09/2026
He said he’s ok with trans people in sports as long as it’s fair and safe. How is that throwing anyone under the bus?

“Woke” as a slur is used by ppl who are more bothered by anti-discrimination policies than they are by discrimination. A term for those infuriated by anti-racism; but don’t mind actual racism all that much. It’s for those ppl enraged by Colin Kaepernick’s knee; but not at all by Derek Chauvin’s.

There’s been a lot of talk in this race about what makes a "real man." A man does what’s right when no one is watching. He upholds his commitments to his family and neighbors. He doesn’t lie, cheat, & steal his way through life. Real men serve others. Weak men serve themselves.

Bluesky isn't a bubble or an echo chamber, it's a garden. You plant some seeds and pull some weeds, you tend to it with care, and you make it into a space that pleases you when you come to sit in it a while. Other people can plant and tend to their own gardens, if they like. This garden is yours.
A colorful riot of tulips and other flowers.
