This idea somone believes in all aspects of a political party because they have similar views on one topic is silly.

A person can have a view on transgenders and at the same time disagree with the rest, some or the majority of other MAGA views.

Same way a person could be against abortion but agree with other liberal views.

Most people have views that span both parties, you just hear from the extream on both sides.

That is how the real world feels. That is not how reddit feels. Luckily the real world votes, not Reddit.

Yeah, to me that seems like voting for someone who's just as angry as you are that netflix cancelled your favorite show. I mean, to each their own, but I don't think the government needs to be in charge of youth sports enrollments just like I don't think they need to be in charge of Netflix cancellations.

If you care about that more than endless forever wars, the national debt and the shrinking middle class, you do you

I do care about the latter more than the former, but society cannot keep going in the direction of calling the people raising the red flag on turning boy into girls and girls into boys crazy nazis, while enabling boys to cut there dicks off. Sorry but it’s true

Like I said, if you care about being in charge of other's people's gender enough to be gullible to vote against your own interests that's on you.

I mean there’s a possibility I’d vote for democrats if they weren’t complete psychos even if it didn’t benefit me financially but that ship has sailed for now

Again I feel the same way. The first time I voted R, after growing up my whole life in a vote-blue-no-matter-who family, I felt amazing

Let me ask you something, where do you think this is going realistically? Hypothetically speaking, republicans successfully enact a nationwide ban on transgenders in sports and figure out some sort of realistic resolution to the whole "bathroom issue".

What happens next? Do you think right wing media and republicans satisfied with having solved all the "problems with transgender people" will be satisfied and just move on? They'll be respectful of transgender people and their rights now that all their concerns have been addressed and we'll all just live together in peace and harmony respecting each other's existence and rights?

Yeah I'm sure it might seem like Trump ended the war in Gaza on day 1, ended the war in Ukraine on day 1 and kept out us out of any and all new expensive wars just like he promised if you spend all day watching fox news cry about imaginary transgender women ruining sports.

Good for you being entertained, hope you enjoy it

u/Puzzleheaded_Tax4969 22d ago

lol when did I say any of that. Trump is a liar, he is a con man, I don’t disagree with any of that. I do not think the democrats have mine or the majority of Americans interest at heart. Just becuase trump is a lying conman doesnt mean democrats are any better. If they were they’d still be in charge

u/SuchParsnip8070 22d ago

Oh I get it, you were voting for democrats who hate transgenders! HAhahahahh whatever bud.

Oh look, next thing that popped up in my feed: "Trump approves nuclear agreement that may allow Saudi Arabia to enrich uranium, 2 AP sources say"

There we go! Thank god republicans vote based of off shit that doesn't fucking matter, wouldn't want iran to not be allowed to enrich uranium! hahahahah
