Sure would be nice if some of those Republicans who say they oppose what their Republican politicians are doing would express their dissatisfaction by 𝘯𝘰𝘵 𝘤𝘰𝘯𝘵𝘪𝘯𝘶𝘪𝘯𝘨 𝘵𝘰 𝘷𝘰𝘵𝘦 𝘧𝘰𝘳 𝘵𝘩𝘦𝘮. Unfortunately, the little (R) next to the name is more important to many voters than a candidate's voting record or platform- they'd vote for that letter, party loyalty above all reason, even if the candidate were campaigning to have everyone who voted for them fed feet-first into a woodchipper.

I don't believe in polls, because they never say what the sample-sizes are and it's never been very accurate. BUT, it's still a good sign that people may be getting tired of what they're seeing their comrades do in the government.

Listen, I was on a veteran's Discord server earlier, looking for a Live game to watch. These guys were talking about trans people like they weren't listening to that conversation too. Well, I was. I keep hearing them say they don't care what people do, but don't shove it down their throats. This is going on everywhere, folks; not just that server.

Exactly how are any of us doing that? No, what's being shoved down throats is their utter disdain for us, including that conversation. That's what is being shoved down OUR throats. They were talking out of both sides of their neck. They don't care, but they do care. SMFH No doubt in my mind, they'd vote against us from this perceived notion that trans people are shoving who they are down their throats. If that was true, I'd be out around there, shoving myself down their throats. Such a stupid, ignorant, and dumb argument.
