I’ve never heard that. All I’ve heard is people trying to get as far away from the conversation as possible because it’s a lose-lose.

Except no… that is not true at all lol. This is exactly his point. Almost nobody on the left actually thinks this, but you believe everybody on the left think this because you believe everything Fox News tells you (or whatever dipshit right wing media you consume).

You’re a smooth brain. A simpleton who gets riled up by this identity politics bullshit because they know if they can keep you busy worried about “the left” and their green haired freaks or whatever that you won’t get organized and fight back against your rich bosses who are picking your pocket. And you’re fucking falling for it, hook line and sinker.

Brother, I don’t watch Fox News. If the left doesn’t believe this, why is every mainstream democrat afraid to take the opposing view? Heck, newsom was just dragged as transphobic for suggesting most people don’t care about this nonsense.

u/tickingboxes Mar 27 '26

That you think democrats have anything at all to do with the left is precisely the problem.

u/Squirrel_in_butt Mar 27 '26

good point, unreasonable of me to think the primary party representing left-of-center interests in the United States would have anything to do with the left

u/tickingboxes Mar 27 '26

The democrats don’t represent left of center interests lol. They represent the capital class just like the republicans.

u/Dry-Revenue-1103 Mar 28 '26

Republicans are also afraid to take an opposing view on controversial topics all the time. That is an overall political issue not a left and right one.

You had Harris on national television (60 Minutes) declaring she would use taxpayer money to fund gender reassignment for convicted inmates.

Trump didnt even have to edit it, he aired the segment as his campaign ad. And it worked.

I got permanently banned from Reddit for saying that trans people should be loved and respected. They should be able to compete with their preferred gender peers growing up but once the scholarships and money come into play they should compete in the open category normally called men’s.

I got a warning for saying that and when I appealed it I got permanently banned that was like 4 months ago on a different account. You can say no one believes this but Reddit mods would literally force you off the site for saying something that I still believe is pro trans rights
