    Remember article 5 of NATO, an attack on a member is an attack on all members! We must show support for the trans and gender nonbinary communities while we organize with the hope of flipping the legislature in the midterms two years from now.

        Republicans control all three branches of government. There is not a chance they will give any of that up voluntarily. And people still think elections will be in any way fair and free.

        Lemmy is for some reason overcome with peak electoralism brainrot and thinks that instead of being the barest fucking minimum of effort, voting is actually the peak of political praxis. Frankly, it’s bizarre.

          Since you can’t say guillotines, or the law would persecute Lemmy itself. If it happens, it won’t be televised, that’s for sure.

            There’s no law against saying things like, “we should all get together on courthouse squares across the country for collective action next weekend” that would persecute Lemmy. But people are no longer interested in collective action, it seems.

      This is a divide and conquer tactic, trying to turn lesbians into TERFs and gays into whatever the gay man equivalent of that is (TERG?). Don’t let it work.

      Speaking of NATO, when do they, I dunno, wanna get involved in removing an obvious bad actor? Actors? I don’t see anyone else bothering, or even coming close to being able to.
