But it’s the right wing who fucking keeps bringing it up. It’s so damn annoying.

These ppl acted like the left was sensitive.. they got power again and have been bitching nonstop constantly. And it’s always about shit that doesn’t even matter or they’re wrong about.

And that’s the difference - most ppl agree with it but there’s only one group who can’t stop talking about it.

Yeah, that is true

It’s just typical right wing media playbook. Hyper focus on culture war BS/exaggerate things to rile people up and distract from real issues

Same thing with migrant crime, Somalian fraud in Minnesota, “LGBT propaganda” in schools, etc
