@tinyfleu What's funny tho is Americans would act exactly the same in this situation because they already do look the other way for endless atrocities affecting others. We just have the privilege of nobody ever bombing us directly to find out.
The way a politician stands next to trans people is not saying a vague 'we can't infringe on your rights'.
You explicitly state the rights.
Cuz the nuances are what people disagree on
You loudly state, bathrooms, puberty blockers, no holds barred in alignment with science.
Trans voter to @AOC: Trans people in America feel like they've been abandoned by the Democratic Party, that we are a losing issue, that it's not worth defending us. What do you say to that?
AOC:
I know AOC has done more on this, but the question was about the party. Not her.
The answer should be "until the party is unified on every single nuance, we cannot be your allies, and that's what I'm working on internally. We are going to change the problems in our own."
It's giving "im brainrot by my own privileged social media reality that these numbers aren't important" while also being "Im sad I dont have 3 bil views on a video!"
What is with the insecurity posturing of mainstream media against the influence of ANYONE with 3 billion views?
That cat influenced people. To be happier?
That's what media does. Influence.
Like sure I'm being ridiculous here.
But the converse to even compare them is what's ridiculous
To go straight for "a fascist w 3 bil views is equal to a cat w 3 bil views in terms of what those numbers mean" is just brain dead.
@ashleyhollis_ I think it would be fine if there was a stronger distinguishing? It's kinda hard to tell when you're doing what ngl ๐ญ
Like maybe leave emojis for the satire?
@socialistadri I know he's very explicit so im not too concerned but I think "do the right thing" and "ignore the haters" are too vague for 2026.
Everyone but him listen ๐คฃ
@kenklippenstein You cant even quote tweet people, you repost it without them knowing so you can just jack off your echo chamber instead of calling any debate.
