Man I just got dog piled on an argument over voting. I get it's a hot topic in this community but having people call me a fascist and telling me to die in Barbara pit is a fucking mood killer. Is voting really deserving of such hate? Was it an argument that got too heated? Is it normal to experience this from fellow comrades over a small disagreement or is the issue really as defining of a person as it was made to seem?

Isn't 7 to 1 pretty standard dug in defense numbers?

But it's not politically expedient though. And I don't see that really changing. Your asking me to weigh the hypothetical future where Biden and the Dems suddenly become super anti queer with the very real possibility of a trump dictatorship criminalizing and prosecuting my partner. Like I fully understand the Dems are old boomer som removed who only are pro queer rights because it gets them votes in the moment. But the alternative I fear is an actual genocide.

Especially as a person who isn't queer myself, I do not feel I have the right to sit by and pretend these fears are unfounded enough not to try and prevent a possible worst case scenario.

I fear for my non binary partners life and job in the event of a trump presidency. Same with my queer friends
