Pronouns. Especially bad when a 2SLGBTQIA+ person makes out like its not a big deal.

Its the most simple, base level thing you can do (using correct pronouns for someone etc). Doing it is not a big deal. Its very easy. But if you choose not to, despite how small of a deal it is, then you turn it into a very big deal.

I don’t really care, nor do I see it like a big deal. I’ve done my best in the past, but it’s also easy to say it wrong by accident.

Also, I don’t have the least idea what 2SLGBTQIA+ means, so I need the person to be clear with me what I should say.

Accepting the Democrats support for the genocide of the Palestinian people just because of “voting for the lesser evil”

US War Crimes!

Why do you think he acts like he rules the world, you wankers? cuz you've defended your presidents from any consequences, forever.

But, now you have a problem?

How does it feel like to taste your own medicine?

Speaking of war crimes...

I dislike US rule because it self-imposes itself over the entire world, trying to insert its media in every facet of everyone's life, its military in impoverished countries, effectively forcing them to stay poor and "not a threat to US democracy" under the guise of rescue, etc.. One state's terrorist is a people's freedom fighter. I looked back at 9/11 for example, the event they're still sensitive about. The US, through oppression and infestation, turned men into the 'terrorists' that became Al Qaeda. This narrative is retold in media, the morals and messages are retold but the public seemingly ignores it.
