    You need to stop having those conversations and focus on what’s important. Right now, if the election were to be held, Trump wins in a landslide according to the polls (assuming EC more or less follows the popular trend).

    What do you need to do before November to ensure that your queer daughter is protected in the extremely likely case of a 2nd Trump administration?

      I just hope they learn before it’s too late that the people who stand idly by and/or vote in support of genocide of Palestinians because they’re not Palestinian are the same people who will do the same with queer people like us because they’re not queer.

      They’re already turning the corner on immigrants. The recent Dem bill is more extreme than any border laws passed under Trump. And now it’s getting even more extreme with the new bipartisan version.

      Stop using us as a shield to protect your horrific genocide. I wonder if their daughter even knows they’re appropriating her queerness to support slaughtering tens of thousands of children.

          Taking her being queer and using it as an excuse to ignore the slaughter of @innocents?

          Yep you are appropriating her queer status to use.

        It’s not a Dem bill; it’s a bipartisan bill. It was the Democrats compromising in order to save Ukraine.

        And your last paragraph is just disgusting. No one’s using you as a shield here. And no one is ‘appropriating her queerness’.

        Do you have any idea what you’re even going on about? You seem to feel pretty strongly about it while not knowing what you’re talking about. That or you’re just buying into some sort of propaganda without thinking about it, which I guess amounts to the same.

          They’re actually correct in how this thread is using queer people as shields for Israel’s genocide

          There are queer Palestinians as well. Although there are far fewer today than there were 5 months ago
