Drag has spent all day in voice chat with drag’s trans friends in America and now they’re crying. They’re going to die if they don’t pack up their entire lives and never see their family again, and they don’t even know how to financially accomplish that. No matter what happens, their lives as they know them are over, and they’re going to suffer. They thought they had more time. They thought Harris was going to win. Now they know that if they can’t get out, they’re going to be murdered. They’re scared and sad and they’re crying.
Fuck every single person who contributed to this. Drag’s friends didn’t deserve this. Whatever fascist agenda made anyone think this was an okay outcome, fuck them. This is not okay!
Those who loved you yesterday still love you today. The legal protections may be changing for the worse, but the actual people caring about LGBT+ friends and loved ones are still all here. We did before, regardless of what the law said, and we will now. I think it’s important to hold onto that going forward. Those of us with differences from what is now the mainstream need to keep sticking together no matter which way the wind blows. Drag and drag’s friends are included in my support for sure.
I am so very sorry, Drag. I can’t believe my country made this choice. I am so afraid. I am so disappointed. I am so angry. I am so sad.
I hope Drag’s friends are ok. I wish I knew what to tell myself and my friends to do, too.
Cry all you want. It won’t do anything. Drag queens can still buy long range guns.
Do something or die.
It’s really hard to take you seriously when you continue to do the third-person thing, it seems like you’re making a joke of the matter.
I agree. Fuck the establishment Democrats. Fuck the astroturf bots and genocide supporters. We need a need left party that isn’t full of corporate cucks.
A true left party would have lost as well, unfortunately.
No they wouldn’t have. You saw the polls when Kamala picked Tim Walz. The people wanted popular progressive policies. The donor-class establishment messaging that followed is precisely why they lost.
Maybe so. Doesn’t matter now, i guess.
It absolutely matters. If Democrats don’t learn anything from this, which I doubt that they will, it will be the same thing in 4 more years.
It will be the same thing again in 4 more years. This wasn’t even the first time they’ve done this.
Nah. This is what those sitting out for their “moral high-ground” don’t get through their heads. The entire government, all three branches, is now captured by literal Hitler-appreciating fascists who have promised to end democracy. There probably won’t be another opportunity for the dems to fuck up a presidential election.
They’re going to die if they don’t pack up their entire lives and never see their family again
Hopefully that’s hyperbolic. Not saying its impossible (my state in particular has been building databases of trans people and definitely not for trans people’s benefit). Unfortunately, there’s a sizable chunk of the population who wanted trans people to suffer more.
They thought Harris was going to win.
Its a campaign that has been running on “fuck you, we don’t need your vote” messaging from day 1 towards some of its most loyal voting demographics. The fact that some where projecting it to be even been close was a miracle and was based on a great overestimation of turnout. Its not like Trump did significantly better than 2020.
