Sometimes a visual is nice just to help hammer home just how bad things have gotten in parts of the United States. We’ve got a lot of fighting left to do for trans rights.

    I don’t blame culture wars. I blame conservatism. Conservatism is a plague of oppression, sickness and death. It always has been.

    It should be socially acceptable to call out fascism in public. Smiling politely and turning the other cheek is how we ended up with this infestation of conservative hatred.

      Culture wars are a direct result of conservatism, so it makes sense to target the tap root, not the leaves.

        Hmm I feel if you replaced conservatism with liberalism you have the same argument but from the right point of view.

        Culture war just sounds like the war on drugs or the war on terror to me. Probably be how we waste the next 10 years with nothing to show for it except maybe being closer to extinction.

          That may be, but unfortunately things like nuance are never considered when conservative ideology is involved… Unless it affects them personally.
