The Dems have been “reaching across the aisle” since before I was born. How’s that working out? 20 years ago, racism was couched under the guise of “it’s just a joke.” 10 years ago, the racists and transphobes were screaming about how they were getting canceled for their views on their TV specials. Today, members of the incoming administration have openly called for the genocide of trans people (their words, not mine).

America has always been deeply bigoted. It’s just out in the open now. And with my life on the line, the only thing I’m reaching across the aisle with is a loaded gun. The time for reconciliation is past. It’s time to make Nazis afraid again.
