Just to clarify the point: Republicans only shriek about issues like transgenderism to put the focus on these non-issues, away from real issues like healthcare, poverty and inequality, war, climate change, etc..
"It's God's judgement."
Reprobate nation and all that stuff. It's like lesbians causing hurricanes.
To them, these are - or can be - connected.
Funny how they never comment on the high rate of floods, drought and tornados in the Bible Belt.
That's gods punishment on them for not fighting the gay agenda hard enough. Once all the gays are back in the closet and all the babies are forced to be born and all the schools are Christian, the tornadoes will stop.
Which is why these issues and the left identitarian fringe that pushes them to center stage are so problematic. It takes two to tango.
Why aren't the Democrats addressing those issues. Do they just shriek about other things? I feel like they shriek about the same things, actually, and that's how culture war bullshit serves both "sides", or should we say the two available flavours of neoliberalism.
So, I dunno, pay more attention?
No, I'm not American and it's already annoying how much I have to hear about US politics. Republicans are clearly much worse.
