What era in time do these people think R's are trying to conserve to, after or before civil rights?
No fucking way this is real
Think about it, if I was gay, voted republican and sees this regression to pre gay times , I would sure as shit be too embarrassed to say anything and there’s no way I’d post about it
That Jordan guy is a real idiot
I can't believe face eating leopards eat faces...
First they came for the communists and I didnt complain because I wasnt a communist...
Jordon Ramsay
IT'S FUCKING R!
So, a married gay man who is conservative, a gay man who I presume to be a cis man, who call himself pro life… I’m not an expert or anything of sorts but I don’t think he should be having an opinion of abortion, because let’s say, his opinion of abortion is so well informed and backed by science as his voting choices… everyone capable of getting pregnant is seriously screwed.
The thing about tokens, they get spent. First: Roe overturn. Completed Second: Obergefell overturn. In process. Third: Lawrence overturn. In process. Fourth: Griswald overturn. In process. Soon: Loving overturn. Coming.
What are those? I only know Roe is for abortion.
Obergefell allowed gay marriage. Obergefell v. Hodges 2015 https://www.wlns.com/news/resolution-introduced-to-overturn-obergefell-v-hodges/ Lawrence is sodomy laws are unconstitutional. Lawrence v. Texas 2003 https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/supreme-court/thomas-wants-supreme-court-overturn-landmark-rulings-legalized-contrac-rcna35228 Griswold is right to use contraception. Griswold v. Connecticut 1965 Loving got rid of anti-miscegenation laws. Loving v. Virginia 1967 https://pwperspective.com/republican-senator-suggests-supreme-court-should-reconsider-loving-v-virginia/
Obergefell v. Hodges: Same-sex couples have a fundamental right to marry.
Lawrence v. Texas: Anti-sodomy laws are unconstitutional.
Griswold v. Connecticut: Opposite-sex couples have a Constitutional right to privacy and contraception.
Loving v. Virginia: Bans on interracial marriage are unconstitutional.
Obergefell is same-sex marriage, Lawrence overturned sodomy laws making gay sex legal, Griswold was legalizing contraception, and Loving was interracial marriage.
conservatives vs reactionists
I don't understand how he missed the part that Republicans are largely anti-lgbtq.
Everyone who supports authoritarianism thinks they're going to be the exception. They can see other people who their politics denigrates as outsiders easily, but they could never be outsiders because they're them and they buy into the bullying. They think signalling that they're on board with mistreating other people will protect them from being mistreated, but all it does in reality is create a society where no one is safe.
Even the powerful people who buy into this thinking will find that it bites them in the ass eventually. They may be late on the list, but they're still on the list. Eventually either the ever-shrinking circle of "insiders" will exclude them, or they'll be in the last in-group once they've alienated the rest of society and put their own safety at risk. Every dictator is terrified of this, because they've seen how it plays out. They're just gambling that it won't happen to them, but eventually the mob will come. The best they can hope for is to delay it as long as possible.
But queer Republicans? Republicans of color? Disabled Republicans? Republican women even? They're on the chopping block from the start and are only surrounding themselves with the people who want to diminish them while alienating anyone who might genuinely want to help.
All the more reason they can't look directly at it. They think if they don't make eye contact or try to fight back or run, the predator won't come for them. They couldn't be more wrong.
I find it interesting that the basic premise of his argument is that all current legislature is correct and good. He just wants any future rules about unlegislated concepts to be reactionary.
People like this need to get bit by reality. Hard.
Eat shit fuckin loser
Just use the word republicans, it pisses everyone off
The One Rule: Be a white, straight man.
If you are part of the One Rule, the conservatives are coming after you and all the civil rights you have.
If you think you're an exception, see the One Rule.
In german we have a word for it: Tja
Which is hard to acuratly translate. Something like:
Well, i told you/them / that was obvious, but nothing you/they can do about it now.
You mean "oh well"
yeah maybe, not sure if it hits the exact conotation
I guess it does
There aren’t words to describe how much I love this for him.
My partner just said “it sounds like it was written by Joe Exotic” and not a truer statement has ever been said.
