I don't want or need a president that silences the conversations that we need to protect people that aren't considered "culturally normal."

That's how fascists chip away at the base of good people.

I do want and need a president that will prioritize protecting the most vulnerable.

That's how you protect people.

C'mon y'all. This is the oldest trick in the fascist book. You agree to their pressure to only include those who are "culturally normal." But then the definition changes over time.

One day you find that you yourself are not "culturally normal."

It's 2026. How are we still falling for this?

@mekkaokereke I mean, I know it's a rhetorical question, but over and over again, we fight literal wars against slavers and Nazis, but we don't actually do the work of eliminating the racism (and misogyny!) that animates them. We're just not willing to that far.

@mekkaokereke uggggh. This cishet happily-married white woman thinks that "culturally normal" is a lie and a trap, Gavin Newsom can eat a dick, and if that man is the best Democrats can do, we're fucked.

The worst thing is, I agree with him that Dems need to focus on the economy, affordability, etc.!! Just not at the expense of protecting diversity and leveling the playing field. It doesn't have to be either-or, and he's setting up a false dichotomy.

@mekkaokereke I mean, most Dems are still blaming Jill Stein because their candidate couldn't be bothered to mumble even a couple phrases about why climate change or genocide are unappealing, so this is par for the course .
