    Democrats haven’t done anything on the federal level to protect LGBTQ rights in red states, nor is Harris running on any LGBTQ protections. Go ahead and look through her campaign website. There’s not a single mention of LGBTQ or gender. There are only 2 mentions of ‘minority’, and only one of black americans, and only in the context of business ownership.

    Don’t tell me Harris is going to protect minorities in red states when she’s not given a ounce of time or effort doing anything to defend them.

    edit: on her website she doesn’t even discuss queer, gender, or immigrant issues when discussing project 2025. It looks as if she is going out of her way to avoid the topic altogether.

      I don’t give a fuck what she has to say to voters to get her elected. If you don’t think liberal judges over the next four years are a net positive over conservative judges, you need to pay more attention to politics more holistically.

      For the record, this is also why I’m forever grateful to Joe Manchin for giving Dems a majority despite him not agreeing with Dems on many subjects. The alternative was far, far worse.

        Why the fuck would an LGTBQ+ activist artist have any reason to endorse a candidate that can’t even bring herself to utter the acronym in public?

        Honest to god, what kind of partisan gremlin would go around accusing lgbtq activists of abandoning their cause because they refuse to go out of their way and endorse a candidate that doesn’t even want to be associated with queer minority rights, especially when that candidate happens to also be supporting an ethno fascist regime engaged in genocide?
