Put aside our differences by throwing a vulnerable minority community to the wolves? And pray tell, who exactly is the “common enemy”? You’re the one in engaging in fascist thinking by assuming that sacrificing minorities will somehow help you. See “Then they came for me…” poem.
I don't see Democrats putting LGBTQ+ people in concentration camps, but I think it's just a question of months before Republicans begin to do so.
Also, Buttigieg saying trans women might have an advantage in sports is very very far from throwing a community to the wolves, like you say.
The US is in its current state because its citizens are more focused on what divides them than on what unites them. Social media is to blame I think, creating an infinity of echo chambers where people get less and less tolerant to contrary opinions, argue less, and insult more. And while the people are fighting among themselves, the ruling class can sleep peacefully.
What unites us is easy, Luigi is the most popular man in America for a reason.
The problem is that the people calling the shots are same sort of people who Luigi Luigi'd. Actual political progress in this country would require divesting the rich and powerful of their lofty status, something the people who own this country will never accept.
