Conservatives spent at least two decades saying that queer acceptance is a slippery slope would lead to the normalization of incest, then bestiality, then pedophila, in that order. And then it turns out that being conservative was the thing that led to pedophila all along. So I’m left feeling like every accusation is a confession, and that homophobia is their way of covering their tracks.
also incest and beastality, which conservatives seems to be okay with.
How about he release a video of Epstein instead.
The student newspaper he ran in college suggested that you can’t rape someone who is unconscious.
He’s been married three times and is a serial adulterer.
I don’t think he’s a secretly gay or bi man. I think he’s the type that’s more worried that men will treat him the way that he thinks women deserve to be treated.
As long as you clasp your hands in prayer and ask Sky Daddy for forgiveness (which he will grant just because you believe in him) you can do anything. No contrition, no atonement, only profligacy and crimes against Humanity.
Trump and his followers are so unbiblical that they seem to exist as a mockery of Christianity.
ah yes the party of small government
definitely not authoritarian
look, if I want to stick my dick in somebody’s ass and they want me to stick my dick in their ass, what fucking business of the government is it
Government so small that only a handful of people make all the decisions without any oversight
if they make everyone they don’t like a criminal, then they can legally enslave them. not that they care about what the law says anyway, but it will appear more legitimate
“I thought y’all took turns”
But not underage sex ? Like the entire administration
Bro got rejected by a twink and is trying to sink the whole ship 😭
These people are fascists by definition. This is only feature 12 of 14, but they check every single box in the list.
“Let’s police things we can’t control whatsoever” - Idiot Republicans.
Not (just) “idiot”, but evil. The “advantage,” besides populist wank, is creating a new law that is enforced extremely selectively when you want to prosecute people for other, unconstitutional reasons. E.g. “We didn’t infringe on their free speech, they were imprisoned for engaging in gay sex.”
The thing is, they’ve done this before, several states still have “sodomy laws” to this day. It’s fucking stupid.
Getting real sick of all the fucking comments claiming that only closeted people are capable of being homophobic. It’s bizarre how this absurdly homophobic take is so common. Stop blaming gay people for homophobia please. You straight people are indeed capable of being homophobic, as evidenced by this victim-blaming “joke”.
For real. Like, are there no straight people who hate gay people then? Hmm
Nobody is saying being homophobic means you’re definitely closeted, but it’s an open secret that a lot of republicans are.

Lots of people are. Actually, I can link you to at least 3 people who are saying that homophobia is a thing only closeted gay people do, and at least 6 more implying it.
Sure you can link em. I saw a few accusing hegseth of being gay, but none like what you saw.
Yes… the comments accusing him of being gay are people saying it. THe implication being the man with a wife and children must be gay if he is also homophobic.

I don’t get it… if he doesn’t like gay sex why doesn’t he just stop having gay sex and call it a day
Think of it like Prohibition. It’s not enough to give up on fun. You need to make sure nobody else is enjoying themselves without you.
if alcohol prohibition gave us bootleggers, gay prohibition would bring us bootyleggers?
Well, more like bootylickers
You can find those regardless of gender or orientation!

Puritanism.—The haunting fear that someone, somewhere, may be happy.
H.L. Mencken
So he’s jealous of all the gay sex everyone else is getting?
Dude is on his third wife and idfk how many out-of-wedlock children. I think he’s just an angry drunk.
I expect so, he can’t come out without losing credibility with MAGA.
Have you had gay sex! I mean you can’t just stop unless its literally illegal. I feel for the man.
I feel for the man.
😏
This is the only question we need answered
Bro… Stop making comments like this and start getting in prime physical condition and practicing war. /S
he enjoys it more if its forbidden, and not all the time.
I’m racking my brain here trying to remember which comedian made the same joke about gay marriage being legal.
When I was reading The Handmaid’s Tale couple of years ago it felt like borderline fantasy, worst possible scenario kind of thing. Now it feels like it’s maybe 5 years away.
Our whole continent collectively stopped analyzing fiction as warnings or analogies for what’s real.
Or more accurately, the line between absurd fantasy and reality was slowly eroded as politicians and officials continued to push the line into the realm of the unbelievable, that people stopped caring about the line.
We’ve done it! At last, we’ve successfully created the torment nexus from the classic novel “Don’t Create the Torment Nexus!”
Or more accurately, they dumbed down the educational system so that nobody reads books any more, just whatever propaganda they feed us on our phones.
just whatever propaganda they feed us on our phones.
Not wrong at all, but I encourage everyone to stop using vague language. “They” could mean a thousand different things to a thousand different people.
Let’s call it what it is. Corporations and oligarchs. Corporations use algorithms to feed you addictive slop to keep you distracted, dumb and ill-informed so they can take over our entire ruling system and deregulate or create whatever laws they want to gain more wealth. We still have a very slim chance of shifting the narrative from a race or ethnicity war to a class war where it belongs but we have to start rallying the victims of this propaganda and we don’t get there with progressive terminology. Focus on the fact that we’re not getting anything in return for our tax money, that we’re all working harder than ever and not getting anything, that people in power are lying for money.
Margaret Atwood specifically only included things that have already happened to women at some point in history so nobody could say it was far-fetched or out of the realm of possibility.
I think significantly less than 5 years.
Government so small it fits in all your crevices.
That’s really clever. Did you come up with that?
Hey kids. We gonna stay home or vote 3rd party next time?
You go to vote according to your ideals, I’ll go to vote according to mine
Cool. Your dumb fucking ideals only served to empower fascists.
Welcome to adulthood, where sometimes you have to temper your ideals with reality. Once your mother gets done tying your shoes for you, maybe she can help explain this concept in more detail to you.
For you who loves to complain about how I’m not doing what you want, yes I’ll vote 3rd party again.
This
Stupid is as stupid does.
You don’t deserve any sympathy, sorry troll.
Thanks for reminding us that you’re a fucking idiot.
I’m not American but I’m also going to do that. Solidarity bro.
Morons of a feather flock together.

Maybe you should vote 3rd party next time instead of throwing your vote away on some diet-Republican party that keeps getting Donald Trump elected.
Nah bro. I’m not stupid enough to vote 3rd party when a 3rd party candidate stands exactly 0% chance of winning.
In 2024 the 3rd party candidate with the most votes got a whopping half of a single percent of the total votes cast. Confirming that 3rd party candidates stand a snowball’s chance in hell of winning.
You’d know that if you weren’t stupid.
It boggles my mind that less than a year ago fools like you found out exactly what happens when you vote 3rd party when no 3rd party has worked to become viable and yet your hamster brain is ready to go for it again. Zero lessons learned.
Nah, unlike you I’ll be smart and live in reality where the safest bet for our nation is voting for the viable non-fascist party that we can then work to reform once we’re sure the fascist party is out of the picture.
P.S. Your link is fucking stupid because none of the fools that voted 3rd party knew whether their choice was going to make the difference or not when they voted. So they’re still fucking idiots who just happened to be inconsequential idiots this time around.
Nah bro. I’m not stupid enough to vote 3rd party when a 3rd party candidate stands exactly 0% chance of winning.
As opposed to the diet-Republican candidates who also have a 0% chance at winning as demonstrated by Donald Trump getting elected a second time and the Republicans controlling every branch of government? Sound logic there.
In 2024 the 3rd party candidate with the most votes got a whopping half of a single percent of the total votes cast. Confirming that 3rd party candidates stand a snowball’s chance in hell of winning.
That’s because people like yourself decided to throw their votes away voting for the people colluding with Republicans to wipe our democracy out.
It boggles my mind that less than a year ago fools like you found out exactly what happens when you vote Democratic party when no Democratic candidate has worked to become viable and yet your hamster brain is ready to go for it again. Zero lessons learned.
Nah, unlike you I’ll be smart and live in reality where the safest bet for our nation is voting for the viable non-fascist party that we can then work to reform once we’re sure the fascist party is out of the picture.
So then you do support third parties? They’re the only non-fascist parties we have in this country, but I’m sure a smart guy like yourself knows that. Please describe this scenario where “the fascist party is out of the picture” because I’d love to hear it. It’s quite comical to see you write this immediately after talking about how you “live in reality.”
P.S. Your link is fucking stupid because none of the fools that voted 3rd party knew whether their choice was going to make the difference or not when they voted. So they’re still fucking idiots who just happened to be inconsequential idiots this time around.
It’s quite telling when someone, on numerous occasions, has to include in their argument how smart they are and how much of an idiot everyone else is. That’s the cornerstone of a well reasoned argument.
I say that Pete Hegseth should be banned from life. Gay folk, unlike him, actually make the world a better place.
Peter Thiel is gay. Let’s just stop judging people’s goodness or badness from stupid things like sexuality.
Can’t say I was aware of his sexuality - or for that matter, of most people. All I know is that he is a shitpickle by choice.
Gay people have always been with us and will continue to be with us. Stay the hell out of peoples bedrooms you damn Nazis.
Stay the hell out of peoples bedrooms you damn Nazis.
Unfortunately, we have a large and wealthy class of people who believe kicking in your bedroom door and arresting you for the crime of fucking is good public policy. And until those people lose power, they will continue to fund the social and literal murder of the LGBTQ community.
Complicating things further, we have monetized the process of stigmatizing minority groups. So not only do we have a wealthy upper class that believes in sexual prohibition. We have a profit-seeking industrial system that wants to maximize the amount of money generated through surveilling, assaulting, imprisoning, and publicly castigating members of the underclass. Until that engine of profit-seeking is destroyed, we’re going to see poor residents turned against one another in the struggle to access the enormous economic surpluses horded by the upper class.
The only way for them to lose power is for them to lose their life. But not enough of you Lefties own guns compared to MAGA, and you continue to vote in favor of restricting ownership in most blue/left-leaning states. So it’s not going to be well for anyone for the next fifty years.
not enough of you Lefties own guns
I think you’d be surprised how many do. But guns aren’t magic. I haven’t seen anyone clearly articulate what we do with our guns that we have.
Not the least bit because anyone bold enough to try is kicked off the site.
Curiously enough, the 2nd amendment is less useful than the 1st
Curiously enough, the 2nd amendment is less useful than the 1st
Isn’t the whole point of 2A to empower the whole people to put down a tyrannical government?
No. It is to empower local militias to take land from unincorporated native peoples.
Absent the legal authority to communicate your grieveness, congregate a movement in opposition, and define your ideological tenants free from persecution, how do you build up a militia with which to resist a tyrannical state?
Unless you’re psychic, there’s no way to mobilize a mass movement. The best you can do as a lone gunman is stocastic violence.
Don’t forget putting down slave rebellions
They can also lose power by being endlessly ridiculed to the point that people vomit on them the moment they are seen in public.
I know you’re joking, but all that will do is get you arrested and put in prison, nor fix the underlying issue that fascism keeps coming back due to pacifist dipshits are afraid to deter them with armed protests and violent rhetoric.
