This supposed party of freedom is more than happy to intervene in private medical decisions that belong to individuals, parents, and medical professionals- for power.
They won’t stop with attacks on women, parents, educators, people of color, the LGBTQ+ community, and more.
Yes, I know there’s gerrymandering and voter suppression. But we have to vote the GOP out. Vote and vote for Democrats.

@TheUSASingers@union.place @LindaCollins11 Coach Clueless was a big dummy even before Walker.
Again:
Was Hitler a fascist 10 minutes before the Holcaust started? Was Hitler a fascist before he became Chancellor? Was Hitler still a fascist when he was in jail writing Mein Kampf and establishing the tenants of what would become Nazism? Yes?
Then your argument that "it's not fascism yet because hasn't invaded Poland" is every bit as reductive and childish as I'm treating it.

The owner of newsie.social has previously said that transphobic speech is allowed if it's "respectful and in good faith." This is an unsurprising development, except for how fast it has happened.
“It’s become a routine occurrence to see media personalities, think tankers, and others whose large platforms give their rhetoric weight, call for a dictatorship in America.”
We’d better take these people seriously even if they are, well, batshit crazy.

@Danetteb @kcivey @Gigi@kolektiva.social @WearsHats @StillIRise1963 I still have all my old 45s. My husband would not put any of them in his jukebox. Harumph!
@kcivey @Gigi@kolektiva.social @WearsHats @Danetteb @StillIRise1963 I’m old.
@kcivey @Gigi@kolektiva.social @WearsHats @Danetteb @StillIRise1963 I actually have that 45.
@gedeonm @Ronnie @developerjustin Nothing in that arc went as anyone expected!
DOG WHISTLE POLITICS
Republicans don’t say they hate Jews. They say George Soros backed.
Republicans don’t say they hate gay people. They say groomers.
Republicans don’t say they hate Hispanic people. They say illegal aliens.
Republicans don’t say they hate Black people. They say ban woke.
Republicans don’t say they hate Asians. They say kung flu.
Be very wary of a political party that consistently uses dehumanizing language. Eventually, they’ll come for you.
