Holy shit. This is fucking huge.
This is fourth reich shit, non-hyperbole. The definition of "First they came for the communists..."
What do you think will come next? Banning interracial marriage? Banning divorce and women having bank accounts? Or banning speaking anything that is critical of the regime.
People need to start freaking out about this right now, not when they're already on the otherside of ghettos and barbed wire fences.
Of course it is. Did you ever believe that it would stop at trans people?
The definition of "First they came for the communists..."
It has been like that when they first agitated in favor of bathroom and sports segregation, but many let it slide because they were all cis-genderist inside.
If only some trans advocates had warned that the anti-trans movement threatens the core of fundamental freedoms... Oh wait they did, but we called them nazis for not catering to our cisgenderism.
So yes, we reach the point where they also come for the gays, and of course they will come for women and black people. They have let on this shit very publicly.
I only sometimes history did not repeat itself sooo sarcastically.
TL;DR We told you so. Now join the resistance.
I wish the media would stop saying 'conservative' and start saying 'fascist'.
I hate this country. My loving marriage has far more right to exist than these ghouls'
I just love the hypocrisy from republicans. They preach smaller government, but are always the first in line to take rights and freedoms away from those they dislike.
They may tell you otherwise, but their actions say they want to govern based on their own warped "Christian" ideals.
MAGA needs to unfuck themselves, and remember that this is a secular nation. You may not like who someone loves or that they worship a different god, or no god at all. Guess what? It's none of your damn business. And it certainly isn't a basis for treating people differently.
Republicans are either too stupid to understand the hypocrisy or actively engage in it specifically because they enjoy trolling.
Conservatives with a semblance of coherent thought are Democrats.
Anyone that actually understands the system knows both parties are right of center and left is basically a boogie man with no real-world presence in the US.
The American people need to rise up, just a matter of when.
Though most Americans support same-sex marriage, the court’s conservative shift is concerning.
This is all anyone needs to understand on the subject. They don’t give a shit about what the majority wants anymore- as they’re making it known far-and-wide that they are no longer employed by us. They’re employed by themselves.
My supervisor is a hardcore trumper - and also a lesbian who proudly talks about her wife. Nothing that is happening now is good, but it will at least be a little amusing to hear her "but the leopards weren't supposed to eat my face!" lamentations.
Any LGBTQ person that voted for Trump deserves what they get. I have no sympathy for a person that can’t do the most basic google search and has no interest in bettering the world for other people.
The only reason most people voted for Trump was Money or Immigrants. Two of the most selfish reasons.
That's a weird thing I've seen in my life. Of the 5 most loud, vocal Trump supporters I know, 3 are lesbians. It's weird.
The leader of Germany's Neo Nazi Party is a woman dating an immigrant woman. I don't fuckin get it
Dear LGB Drop The T losers
You played yourself, they were never concerned about "my kind" appropriating "your kind", they were never after us, they were always after you, we were just in the way.
First they came for the communists.
When you sell yourself out as a lapdog, don't be surprised if you end up reaping what you sow.
First they came for the Trans people...
And after that I'm sure inter-racial marriage will be next. Fuck these people
It's okay because uncommitted are patting themselves on the back.
In fact they'd probably go, "Harris would've done the same thing!" lmao.
One thing they're going after is adoption and surrogacy.
According to project 2025. A child shall be raised by their biological mother and father.
Queer erasure won't end with TQ. They'll go after LGB too.
That hits divorce, IVF, and IUI for heteros as well
dude just look at the taliban and know that's where we're headed. except jesus flavored. divorce is irrelevant if all you have to do is accuse your wife of something and..."redeem your family's honor"
and if the (forced into marriage) wife wants a divorce? "LOL shut your filthy whore mouth and get back in the kitchen"
"Liberty Council" seems to take away liberties. Yup. That sounds like conservatives all right.
Very "Ministry of Truth" of them.
Meanwhile a ton of conservatives are closeted gays
If they can't be openly gay and comfortable in their own skin, no one can be. I fucking hate Republicans.
many of the the gop men are in sham marriages anyways, they have to project somehow.
So ... when are they going back to legalising child marriage and removing divorce?
They’re already working on it.

I love how none of them ever had grandparents that got "divorced" before no-fault. You know what you did a lot of the time before no-fault if you wanted out? Killed your husband. Wives, when they were forced with a situation where they couldn't simply leave the state/country, would just poison their spouse. In the early 1900s, when your wife was often the one who was at home all the time, preparing all your meals, it was INCREDIBLY easy to do in a way that looked like "oh well he just kept getting sicker and sicker".
Child marriage is already legal. We don't have to go back to that.
No-Fault divorce is already on the chopping block.
'Til death do us part' is gonna be the only option soon, just an FYI for my peeps in abusive relationships out there.
Anybody have any idea what'll happen to those of us already gay married?
Initially just the rights gained by it removed. Any tax benefits, recognition of dependent status, military spouse stuff etc etc.
Later a list will be created and distributed.
The public will be encouraged to refuse service to openly gay people. From there it's a quick ride to imprisonment and reeducation until it's similar to Saudi Arabia. Then who knows.
Well with this administration, reprogramming camps, a.k.a. forces labor camps are on the table. So is deportation, erasure, and ''where did they go? I have no idea what you mean? Who could possibly say? They just disappeared I guess!''
Just more government fingers in places they shouldn't be from the party of supposedly small government.
christian terrorists strike again
