with this much effortless casual homophobia i'm surprised you're not a trump supporter
Pretty sure this is a quid pro quo joke
if it's not homophobia, can you explain why "sucking dick" and "getting railed" are implied to be embarrassing or otherwise "bad" things for a guy to do?
I swear, you Democrats completely suck at picking and choosing your battles, and that's part of why you're stuck with weaklings like Schumer. Do you think someone's going to have the guts to stand up to Republicans if they grovel and beg for forgiveness the second someone gets offended over a joke they made? Weak.
There's Republicans out there working to literally erase gay and trans folks from the planet. Those Republicans are the people you need to focus on fighting, not the guy who made a bad joke yet is clearly on our side.
At this rate, maybe AOC or similar will become the democratic candidate in 2028, and basically lead to another Republican landslide. Democrats, at least the politically active ones that would sway these things (not leadership), keep putting a large emphasis on identity politics, political correctness, and a certain 'victim' ideology which is out of touch with many of the centrists who ultimately decide the election. Kamela Harris, despite her shifts in policy, is a gauge of this, and yet in these areas she and AOC are nowhere even close, but the AOC-type group is where I see the biggest push among younger democrats. From the point of view of winning a general election, this could be concerning for democrats.
AOC wouldn't be a Republican Landslide what are you... reads the rest of it
Ahh... you're one of those "Democrats need to crucify transpeople in the street in order to prove they love America" weirdos
Sorry Concern Troll, but I'm not buying it
You could disagree, but I think it's out of touch to suggest most of the US (or at least most of the voting center in swing states) would prefer her over a moderate. And that would be the biggest factor in determining who would win an election.
what the fuck are you talking about? i am not even american, let alone a democrat? stop using the dumbest fucking justification for homophobia i have ever heard. stop the bigotry or fuck off back to reddit.
So because of fascism we just need to sit down shut up and tolerate homophobia? Thanks.
