Which almost everyone willing to vote for him would fucking hate if they weren't too dumb to notice.

Kyle Rittenhouse of all people recently called out Trump as being bad for the second amendment, and the folks on the right retaliated by accusing him of being trans

Seriously, there were people analyzing photos of him "proving" that he was born female. And when he retracted his comment, they dropped the whole thing.

It's fucking wild

I'm quite sure you don't understand how it works.

Just setting up plausible deniability against accusations of helping trump.

it's not like logical consistency matters to them.

In fact, fascists see the ability to just say whatever gets them the most power in the moment as a strength. They're not held back by "weaknesses" like truth and facts

All that matters to them is power

What's funny is that i interpreted the changes shown in the meme as making it softer on Israel. First edit removes the reference to the school, second edit changes the number of people killed from a big number "over 100" to a fuzzy amount "scores" that is easier to underestimate.

It's since added that information back in, but in the meme it looks like it's trying to make Israel look as not-bad as possible.

Naturally it would be preposterous for him to be on the ticket for President, but the reason they continue to let him run for Congress is because he counts towards the Dems in terms of determining which party has the majority and therefore sets the agenda for that chamber of Congress. Without him, that particular part of WV would almost certainly go to the GOP and tip control of the Senate firmly in their favor.

It's a deal with a devil, and one that has burned the Dems more than once. But without him we'd probably be completely fucked.

I'm not deluding myself about anything. The choice isn't "vote for or against genocide" it's "act to get less or more genocide". It's not a false dichotomy; if you're not voting to defeat Trump, then you're acting to get more genocide.

By not acting to defeat Trump, you're enabling genocide more than Biden ever has.

"I'd rather let someone who actively, aggressively advocates, enables, and wants genocide domestically and abroad to win the presidency, over voting for somebody who passively enables genocide to happen abroad because actively trying to stop it could ignite WWIII" is still a bad take.

It's baffling and hypocritical.

Google WPATH Standards of Care and read that document for the truth. It's the actual rules that doctors are supposed to follow for treating trans people.

Until you've read that, you can't have an informed opinion on the matter.

Women's sports are divided out so they can compete equally.

This isn't true at all. Women's leagues were created because men refused to let women play in the leagues that were already created. That's literally all there was to it.

“If nuclear war happens, we won’t be second in line pressing the button,”

Which means you'll be pressing the button first. Which means you're the one starting the nuclear war.

And the worst part is, I think that might actually be what me means.

You misunderstand. A librarian may not know if something is true or not, but they are educated on how to research something to find out if something is true or not. As you said, their job is to manage sources, which includes knowing with sources are reliable and which sources to look at for certain types of information.
