Senator calls LGBTQ+ people 'filth,' says most don't want them here
A state senator said during a public forum in Tahlequah that LGBTQ+ people are "filth," and that he and his constituents don't want them in "our state."

It's beginning. All over again. Fuck. We gon' have to destroy some Nazis again, aren't we?
yes, we do. let's finish the job this time so our grandkids won't have to deal with this shit
Sadly,many of these new Nazis are the grandchildren of the people who fought the original Nazis.
*Children
Both are correct
Nah. Those grandkids would be GenX. We're famous slackers.
It's the Millennials and GenZ who have forgotten the face of their fathers.
(Not that many of us GenX fuckers aren't conservative as fuck.)
I had assumed the guy who said it, Tom Woods, was old as balls and just out of touch. I was wrong. He was born in 1994 or 1995 according to Wikipedia.
Nothing pisses me off more than people born in a period were there's significant progress (gay marriage and softening of attitudes) and then fucking chooses to be conservative. I've seen it in the UK, people in their early 20's supporting the Tories despite them living under 14 years of fuck up after fuck up and everything being near broken or gone to shit. Literally in the case of rivers in the UK.
No more of this forgiveness "healing" buttpat bullshit America loves to do with its internal enemies.
End every nazi. Give every apologist life in prison. Ban all nazi/MAGA/confederate iconography and treat anyone found with it as enemies of the state and treat them as such.
We can't just keep forgiving them every time they fuck around then shocked Pikachu when they take another swing. Crush them.
That will involve armed liberals confronting these animals on the streets. Don't see that happening. If they want to march in my town, I'll be front and center. And I will start shit. What are they gonna do? Kill me in a firefight?
Easy for me to say in my weird space. I'm middle-aged, had a pretty great life, all in all. Also got little kids, I'd rather die than see them grow up in a fascist state. I'd count it a win if I take 2-3 of 'em first. Show that we'll fight back.
Y'all do as you like. But don't come crying "No more guns!" when the fascists start up the trains.
remember how we needed socialism for that. start organizing.
Liberals: "The Christo-fascists are taking over! And getting more blatant about it every day"
Yep. Have been for some time. They're more and more in our face about it.
Liberals: "The 2A is ancient bullshit! Give up your guns!"
Well now, hold on a moment...
Saw a wild video a year or two back. Iranian Jihadis running and gunning down a residential apartment block. This was in response to protests. Women wanting rights are some such crazy thing. They were firing indiscriminately into apartment buildings.
Commented a time or three on reddit, "That can't happen in America. We'd shoot back. Or they wouldn't even start." (Much like Ohio class boomers, deterrence is a thing.) Buried in downvotes. 🤷🏻♂️
I'll do what I can for y'all. Won't be much I fear. But I'll fight the Nazis, the ones literally marching in our streets, and it may mean my personal extinction. I'll be scared shitless, but I'll fight, and I have the means and training. Do you? I suggest y'all join me before you end up on trains.
My plan is to boldy say something snarky right before getting shot and hope someone films it so I can be turned into a meme before everything collapses. (In actuality my mental health is way too poor to keep a gun in easy access. Maybe a crossbow or something would be better for me, or I could get a proper medic bag and help that way)
Always the same bullshit pro-gun comments pushing minorities to buy guns, but never telling them who they're supposed to shoot and how it's supposed to help.
If just owning a gun stops this, why is it happening? Why is it happening more often in America compared to countries with stricter gun laws?
If those guns need to be used, who are we shooting and when? This senator? Police? Trump? The far-right would be thrilled. They could open fire on anybody wearing rainbows and claim "I feared for my life" because the second amendment does far more to enable scumbags and extremists than it does to save minorities.
They already do this. Matthew Shepherd.
Sit. The fuck. down
Yes, it has happened. That's because I base my opinions on reality, not hero fantasies and gun-lobby propaganda.
Want to know the difference between Matthew Shepard and all the LGBT people you're sacrificing to your cult? The people who killed Matthew Shepard didn't get away with it.
I'm on your side on this one (and I know we don't always agree). I'm not really sure why people are downvoting other than maybe being confused about your message? I took your meaning to be to encourage folks to train, prep and be ready to fight.
Could be the 2A comments drawing downvotes, but good people will need to fight fire with fire, unfortunately.
Yep. It's the 2A strawman argument that has no place. "Liberals want to take away everyone's guns" is a bullshit right-wing rhetoric.
Off you go then. Shoot some people with your cool guns. Or is it only other people who are supposed to throw their lives away for your bullshit rhetoric?
There is only one approved method to take out fascists and it's using metal bars. Enough with this bullshit pro gun stance from the left on lemmy, leave that crap to the republicans
