I know. You're missing my point. :)

My point wasn't the coalition. My point was that we had 21 days to cobble something together and not only did we do it, we managed to win with it. It's not about the coalition, it's about building a campaign. You have months to do so.

And you're about to say that Trump had way longer to do so. Yes. So did the far right in our country, which barely even campaigned because all of the media were doing so on their behalf for the last two years and we still managed to outnumber them.

Trust me, my faith in the Democrats is barely existent. But still, I think it can be done.

Until they start pulling their weight? What? I think this reveals a lot about the way you think. Being queer is not a social club. It isn't a giant apartment in which we're all living in and therefore, if someone doesn't do the fucking chores, they need to be kicked out. No.

It's not a either stay and fight or leave situation. We are born in a society that happens to be queerphobic as queer people. There is fighting it, but there is no escaping it. And not everyone wants to fight. I don't blame them. Because they already have to deal with the fact that they are queer in a queerphobic society, which is already a fight by itself.

"Pride month? Oh no! How can I make this about me?"

I'll give him credit on this: It's not dead yet. I'm genuinely surprised about that.

Imagine going to the bathroom, just to take a shit! How fucking weird, right? (/s)

...seriously, I wonder what these people imagine we're doing in the bathroom. Or hell, what are they doing in the bathroom that warrant such worries?

You how they say, "it's not a bug, it's a feature"? Well...

It's because these people have the "we can always tell" mentality. But then they're the same people who go harass trans guys on Twitter telling them that they will never be women....

I'm afraid you are putting a lot of words into my mouth and making lots of assomptions about what I'm saying here. I don't really know how to answer to this because, well, you're debating against things I didn't say.

I'm calling you cis, because it's simply a descriptive term. You are white, you are a man, you are cisgender. That's not a problem. I'm white, I'm a woman, I'm transgender. That's not a problem. These, on their own, are simply descriptors. No one here is saying that you're a problem. I'm talking about people who specifically take offense to these terms, like Musk here does, like, if you tell this man that he is "cis", he will genuienly get upset.

Ok, I'm going to be completely honest with you. I can't tell if you're being sarcastic or not.

Are you telling me that I made a shit comment? If so, please do say so because I'm gonna be honest: I am not sure about this comment and I've been thinking about deleting it ever since I posted it. I rewrote it like five or six times before until I finally got fed up with it and said "fuck it" and posted it. :|

EDIT:

So, according to all of you, I worry too much. Thanks a lot for the support, and I'm glad you liked my comment. ❤️

If you want to burn it all, don't be surprised if you end up burning down with it.

Hey, if you'd rather have the Republicans open fascists in power, you do you. I question your survival instincts, but still. I just hope you're just a tiny vocal minority, otherwise we might be all fucked. Or, if you're not a vocal minority... well, I hope you're right and I'm wrong.

We'll see I guess.

I gotta give these people credit. It must take a massive amount of effort to try and be this consistently on the wrong side of history. Like, at some point, it has to be deliberate...
