I know the tax cut figure was huge but how much extra does a millionaire get in their pocket from it? The plebs got what, a temporary 10 bucks or something, what did rich people get that was so appealing to have no soul?

I don't even think a tax cut is an excuse or reason, they are just horrible horrible people.

What if your vote was the one that stopped their rights from being stripped and let kids free from their cages?

Exactly. Someone said they're just looking for an "honest" answer, meaning they're looking for an answer that says I'm for stripping the rights of transgender people and kids in cages. But I'm not and if I say that the response is "well, you're complicit by voting Republican". Where does the conversation go from there? That exact change has been done a thousand times here, whether it's between two members or more often a general reply to a political thread on the subject.

That isn't true. People aren't looking for a precanned response, they're just looking for a honest answer to their questions which you keep avoiding.

You haven't honestly described your thoughts on the specific issues of:

1. Why people whose rights are being threatened should be chill.
2. How do you feel about your GOP benefits, compared to the lack/othering of the LGBTQ community by the GOP.

and probably others that I've missed.

Those are very simple, and don't need you to cite the economy, as it doesn't apply. People are being targeted by the GOP. Those people asked you a question about that targeting.

You cite Chinese IP theft.

I can understand the logic behind a rich person voting Republican but how fucking stupid and hypocritical would you have to be to still consider yourself a rightful spokesperson for the LBGTQ community after enabling Trump? It's truly mind boggling.

The GOP - the most popular party among Nazis while apparently having no voters who are Nazis
I mean that's just it. And you know, the moderation policy may be to not ban people just because they are Republican, fine. But in the end, the people that vote for bigots always end up getting banned anyway because guess what? Yep, they too are bigots.

You can proclaim you're for trans rights all you want until you actionably enable policies that harm them with your vote.
 
So far, as far as I can see, nothing you've done has been against the TOS. You've done what's within your rights on this board and no one can say otherwise. As far as I can see, you've given no mods any reason to ban you.

That being said, you've also stated a lot of things, both in other threads and this one, that make me want to spit in your face. Thanks for being part of a group of people that are trying to take away my marriage. Thanks for being a part of a group of people that want to make sure that no one feels safe unless they're a straight, white, rich male.

Now *I* am going against the TOS - You're a terrible human being who only cares about himself. You're no better than anyone in Nazi Germany who went along with Hitler because "hey, he's got a few things right". You and everyone like you who want to fuck over my life can go to hell. I hope someday you'll be treated the same shitty way me and my people (LGBTQQIA) have been treated.

Don't you tell me or anyone like me that we "could have been a little more chill". You aren't the one who is being threatened with our rights *that shouldn't even be up for debate* are removed. You are the reason they are. You and all the people like you are the reason why we're getting fucked the way we are.

Thank you for showing us who you truly are. An individual who does not give a shit about anyone but himself. The sad part is, you're the fucking majority.

Note to this community

This is the kinda shit that drives folks away, it's totally fine to endorse, enable the destruction of my human rights as long as you couch it in invented economic theory and utilitarianism. As long as you do some perfomative condemning with empty meaningless words, it's ok to oppress me, it's ok to vote to strip me of the right to live and work, to drive me people to suicide, to erase us, as long as you say it sucks but GOP economic theory, responsible for several recessions and collapses, will magically lift enough people up to make the death of my community palatable.

:clap Signal :clap Boosting :clap this :clap

Come on admin team, just put it under concern trolling a be done with all the people that skirt the line of the TOS.
