Watch LGBTQ+ people get genocided right here in America because lefties decided not to vote against Fascism. Remind us again that you didn't vote against it when that happens and see how people react.
Conservative with a gun
LGBTQ dead body
Liberal: "Leftists did this. Now vote for me so I can pardon the conservative."
Church!
We're armed, although liberals are doing everything they can to prevent it.
Red states are expanding their 2A rights while blue states limit their own. You have fascist militias popping up all over the place and what legislation do you think will disarm them? That cat is out of the bag. Us 'lefties' understand that Jon Stewart is not going to show up and save us with a witty quip when some christian nationalist has us on our knees in front of a ditch.
There may come a time we'll all wish we had access to non-nerfed rifles and normal capacity magazines. Liberals are doing nothing productive to deal with this rise of fascism.
I'll be voting democrat, but let's not pretend that voting republican light is going to defeat christofascism.
Voting republican-light might mean being able to vote again at all
This is a painful argument because this whole protest vote issue revolves entirely around the refusal to take the political risk of acknowledging or trying to stop a genocide.
As one of those LGBTQ+ people, I have no faith in people protecting me who won't speak out against genocide
You still have to acknowledge that democrats aren't going to be the party leading the genocide of LGBTQ+ people.
It's one thing to say you don't have faith in them protecting you. It's another thing to clear the way for the party that actively wants to harm you by not throwing in with the only other party big enough to hold them back.
It's not a pretty decision. But reality isn't pretty.
Genocided? Lmao what? Bro, don't cheapen the meaning of actual tragedies
Project 2025 Mandate to Leadership. Page 1. Paragraph 2.
They want to barr transgender persons from the military again. Page 104.
Page 284. They also want CMS (center for Medicare services) to make a national coverage decision citing gender-reaffirming surgery as dangerous. Which has downstream repercussions to medicaid and private insurance. (That's on page 474).
They want to cock-block Bostick, the ruling which extended sexual discrimination protections for transgender persons. (page 584).
Make no mistake. Transgenders are our conservatives Jews. You could replace "transgender", "gay", "LGBT", "homosexual" etc in that document with "jew", you'd swear it was written 90 years ago in Germany.
Cool bro. Still not a gEnOcIdE
Fuck you.

Cool story bro, didn't knew it is actual state policy to eradicate people. Surely the millions of deaths since the constitution was changed during Biden's administration reach American doorsteps this very instant, while civil war and chaos reigns free in a rampant spree of gore and festivities, or gorestivus, as it is known, while millions of Americans drool in awe at your captivating message.
Still not genocide tho
Ah, another "you can't call it genocide until after they actually do it" clown.
Get fucked, Nazi.
Sheesh, aren't you worried to cut yourself with all that edge?
Witholding medicade is genocide?
Like fuck, Project 2025 is fascism and an existential threat to more than just LGBTQ+ individuals, but these arguments that reference witholding funding from programs as Holocaustic minimizes genocide and the threat of fascism alike.
This isn’t just about withholding Medicaid. They are also banning healthcare in half of the states for transgender minors, at one of the most critical times in their lives, even though they know this has a high potential of leading to more suicides amongst trans youth. Yes. It’s genocide.
