Open decentralized social media is bringing us back to that era 20 years ago when social media was just starting and people just talked and openly discussed the issues of the day with one another.

Unless the mods remove your posts.

And remember, the biggest quality of life aspect to sites like these are the moderators. Of which this site has the same quality as the other!

And when trans people are loaded onto boxcars

Well maybe if Trans people are using Ubers to go protest and you say that it means they're being put in boxcars to get sent to concentration camps to be exterminated by modern nazis I'll disagree with you then as well.

You're right, I'm absolutely going to say it doesn't count.

Doesn't it say it right in the article itself? "Knowles subsequently claimed that it...is not a call for eradicating transgender people."

So you are conflating getting rid of the concept of transgenderism with murdering transgender people? You guys love doing this.

Let's go back to your original quote:

Trump's administration called for "a genocide of trans people" (direct quotation)

It was not said. Michael Knowles is a speaker at CPAC, and a Daily Wire host. Not a member of the Trump admin.

My original comment was removed for misinformation, but I won't be surprised that yours won't.

I was downvoted 11 times just for asking you for a quote that doesn't exist.

Okay, thanks for letting me know. I'm going to leave!

Good luck with Lemmy.

I don't enjoy flippantly using words like fascist and nazi and genocide and coup. It's all word games.

Ok so if you arrest people that are illegally in your country and put them in jail, when does it become a genocide?

My main issue is the hyperbole

Where is the quote?

So are they going to start murdering people there? Like in the holocaust?

Do you think if Trump told the military to jail democrats that they would do it?

How are you fighting?

Shouldn't the fascist Nazis be knocking on your door, OP's door, and the publishers of Democracy Now! door and putting them in a political torture camp?

Or are we just being hyperbolic when we say it's a nazi coup?

I am not advocating for the "opposition" to leave. I am advocating for anyone who thinks America is a failed Democracy who thinks we're about to be genocided to leave. Just because it's a smart thing to do. Which is exactly what my original comment said.

I don't assume everyone who disagrees with even a single word someone who is anti-trump says is pro-trump, because I'm not suffering from delusional internet political brainrot.

!remindme in 4 years when a genocide does not take place.

I wish you had the capacity to understand how juvenile these types of comments are.

Delaying something as big as tariffs by a month is not some kind of epic loss.

Alright, man. Have fun on the internet.

It's wild that you pasted my quote in here although you continue to argue against a strawman.

Only neolibs give a shit about the "soft power" that we get from foreign aid.
