It would be tragic to confuse him with anything punk or counter-cultural. Snider being pro-choice, pro-worker, pro-face mask, but TERFy just illustrates that trans acceptance has a ways to go before it is mainstream. Hence why conservatives try to chip away at this corner.

She's now trying to actually use her struggles with being trans as a defense against her charges, saying that that's what drove her to right wing militancy and belief in conspiracy theories. Yeah. so i read a bit more about her, and apparently, she came out as trans to her family, and they immediately disowned her cause they were hardcore conservatives. and so, she apparently decided that the correct course of action was to...join an even more extreme group of conservatives. :psyducks:

OneEightHundred posted:I know there's some good stuff, I just don't understand how a bunch of these fratty wank-rock bands decided that what would really help their gimmick is dressing up like runway models. Rock and roll always tries to market itself to young people as outside and edgy, and being transgressive about what it's acceptable to look like and act like has always been part of it, from Elvis adopting black culture to the Beatles with their extremely long hair in 1963 to everything thereafter. When groups with actual connections to outsiders - like the Velvet Underground - picked up on playing with gender norms and queerness, a lot of bands interested in generating attention decided that was the way to go, and then in Reagan's incredibly straight America, hitting those points again became shocking again. If you watch any of Twister Sister's videos, it's clear that they literally wanted to be John Belushi in Animal House, to the point of hiring Mark Metcalf to be the antagonist in some of them, so "frat boys playing up rebelliousness" is exactly what they were

I didn't see this posted Fox News apologizes to Gold Star family after facing backlash over false story https://finance.yahoo.com/news/fox-news-apologizes-gold-star-002949017.html quote:Fox News apologized Saturday to a Gold Star family for publishing a false story last month claiming that the family had to pay $60,000 to ship the remains of their fallen relative back from Afghanistan because the Pentagon refused to pay.

I expect a lot of blatantly, indefensibly false stories to pop up in right wing outlets over the next 15 months and then disappear once called out - and hey, if a few tens of thousands of people end believing, forever, that Biden forced a Gold Star family to pay for their daughter's corpse's airlift, that's just a cost of aggressive, hard-hitting journalism, right?

It's like kid that copy/pastes the Wikipedia article for a school paper without the creativity to try to put it in their own words. So with this recent shooting he does same thing they all do, "what about the Nashville shooters manifesto?". His CPAC speech was pretty much just 5 minutes of "Communism is bad! There are only two genders!"

Xitter is already inundated with "WHAT ABOUT BLM THUGS OVERTURNING CARS?" and celebration of the Rittenhouse shooting anniversary. Ramaswarmy is doing the usual deflections of blaming literally everything but the actual problem, but the base position is being intentionally shifted more and more toward "actually shooting black people is totally fine and cool." It's not enough to deny that easy access to guns is the problem, now the test for Republicans is to deny that violence against their enemies is even a problem.
