Gavin Newsome said yesterday that we should stop using pronouns btw. None of these people care about anything and would throw any marginalized group under the bus if the were told it would bring them a polling bump

You think a 12 year old believes in Nazism, from that? Again couldn’t he just be a stupid kid who saw a Charlie Kirk meme with his friends. Have you ever met a 12 year old? Why are we assuming so many things? Again after you lied btw.

What do you think he’s talking about when he’s talking about “identity politics”? You think he means anything socially progressive why would you think that?

because that’s what it means in the current political climate? he’s literally using right wing language to describe what he objects to about purported democratic stances, what does he have some special unique definition of his own? when conservatives cry about identity politics that’s what they mean.

Ok so we don’t know what identity politics mean. Identity politics is usually when your policy or rhetoric is aimed at a specific identity group instead of broad political body of some kind. You can have identity politics that’s trying to appeal to white cis people it’s not exclusive to progressive things.

Do you think that when conservatives (like Newsom) complain about identity politics that they’re upset about things that benefit cis white people?

Why are you assuming hes a conservative? We have do so much mental gymnastics for each quote here 🫩. No when he’s complaining about identity politics if I had to guess he’s complaining about things like the trans bathroom debate, Neo pronouns, latinx. Stuff like that

So one important human rights issue that is kind of politically irrelevant (bathroom bills aren’t particularly popular, they’re literally a losing issue for the GOP because their voters are bored of it), and two nonissues that exist entirely in the minds of mentally ill conservatives? Why is he ceding ground like this? You don’t see any issue in him confirming the false picture of the DNC that Republicans present, because that’s basically what he’s saying.

Yeah and you can confirm that false image by fighting on every stupid culture war issue that no one gaf about. Why do you think conservatives bring it up over and over bc they want liberals to fight them on that ground.

Nope I said the bathroom debate is a stupid culture war issue that no one gaf about. You literally said it was non issue. I’ll pretend to be you so you understand how much of a dipshit you are “so you think trans rights are a non isssue??” You have to try so desperately to find evil intent in every statement so you can keep living in this wacky world You live in.

there’s no point in continuing this nonsense. follow your leader, enjoy Trump 2028-2032, I’ll pray for you etc. You should really register as a Republican, you’d fit in better.

You’re the only one who very purposefully just made up a quote that’s closer to shill behavior than anything I’ve done.
