That's your only response to everything I wrote, huh?

Well that certainly proves that you don't give a shit about queer people. Even if you call that obvious fact an excuse.

By the way, "excuse" is an interesting word to use. It implies that it is, indeed, true that you don't give a shit about queer people, but I'm only bringing that up to cover for something else.

Wonder why you would use that word?

Is it because you don't give a shit about queer people?

My friend, I use the word excuse in relation to you.

It implies that I don’t believe that you actually care this much and are using it to help you excuse your poor behavior( supporting candidates who are actively supporting genocidal actions against children) by saying “Look how much I care about this, just ignore every other flaw in my argument because of this big gay rights flag I am flying.”

I can’t believe I have to say this AGAIN!!!

Fuck The stupid fucking Cheeto in chief. He supports bad policies.

Fuck unlimited support for Israel Biden. He assists in others committing genocidal actions.

They both have flaws, they both don’t give a shit about brown people( Trump obviously, but “You ain’t black” Biden as well)

They both say they support genocidal actions.

Biden might be better, but he isn’t good enough.

We deserve better and every single time you VBNMW you drive us further away from a future in which your daughter does not have to worry.

You are driving them farther and farther and farther right every time you support them regardless of what they do.

Why do they give a fuck what you think, they can just take it a little later with way less fight, one step at a time.

Let them know that if they don’t get on board they won’t get power.
