The U.S. fascists will follow the Russian fascists and outlaw being gay if they get power. Is this not clear?

People like Anderson Cooper think it will be a hoot to cover a 2nd Trump term. The excitement! The drama! He doesn't understand he and his husband will be the first ones in the new gas chambers.

@Okanogen @StillIRise1963 They see a second Trump term only in $$$$. Big ratings. Further promoting racist stereotypes. Big profits from airing endless beer and pharmaceutical commercials.

@StillIRise1963 @YakyuNightOwl @Okanogen And not a good one at that. Monty Hall and Alex Trebek won't be losing any sleep over him.

@IveyJanette Yep. True. I remember seeing him for the first time on “The Mole.”

    @YakyuNightOwl The network clearly doesn’t believe in expertise of any kind.
    Speaks volumes. They clearly believe everything is entertainment.

    @StillIRise1963 @YakyuNightOwl @Okanogen CNN lost their credibility years ago with that missing plane.

    @IveyJanette @YakyuNightOwl I haven’t watched that channel since Soledad was on the morning show.

    @StillIRise1963 @YakyuNightOwl @Okanogen I haven't watched since I cut the cord in 2012.

    @IveyJanette Good for you for getting rid of it then. Took me until 2020.

    @StillIRise1963 @YakyuNightOwl @Okanogen I watch news online. The only reason I kept cable was for sports.

    StillIRise1963,
    @StillIRise1963@mastodon.world avatar

    @IveyJanette We switched to streaming.
    @YakyuNightOwl @Okanogen

    IveyJanette,
    @IveyJanette@mastodon.social avatar

    @StillIRise1963 @YakyuNightOwl @Okanogen I did that also. I watch regular over-the-air channels. Usually shows from the 70's and cartoons. And sports. Plus PBS. That's it.

    StillIRise1963,

    @IveyJanette I hear you. I watch old movies a lot and a lot of things from other countries on Netflix.

    @StillIRise1963 Sadly we would be looking up at that...

    But it should be clear there would no "rights" * after they got power for sure

    • Except if you are Male, white, Christian, Straight, Cis etc... and that would only be conditionally 😉
    StillIRise1963,
    @StillIRise1963@mastodon.world avatar

    @Aviva_Gary Exactly. Conditionally and perhaps, temporarily.

    @StillIRise1963 I would argue their overall goal is to establish a nebulous list of crimes which are odious to society, such that ANYONE who opposes them can be accused of sex crimes/communism/treason/perfidy/&c and then not only can that person be imprisoned or killed, but any association with them or attempt to defend them is dangerous as well.

    This is not in any way better than simply outlawing being gay.

    @StillIRise1963 holy crap, it could get worse, where U.S. religious fundamentalists follow ISIS and throw non-straight people off of roofs. 😡 Who doesn't think people like Mike Johnson and Mike Pence would just give that process a wink wink.

    @timo21 As an African American, I can attest to how abusive and inhuman oppressors can be.

    @StillIRise1963 It should be clear that trans people will be outlawed before gay people are outlawed. The full playbook is to take away any recognition, healthcare and ban « crossdressing » in public.

    @canleaf Thanks, genius.

    @StillIRise1963 And yet the self-loathing Log Cabin Republicans will still vote against their own interests because ... taxes.

    @StillIRise1963 as someone with gay parents this is not happening. Fascists and leaders slowly take away your freedom rather than at once its a slow game that slowly takes things away

    StillIRise1963,
    @StillIRise1963@mastodon.world avatar

    @Hunterrules0_o Ummm, did I imply otherwise? What does having gay parents have to do with anything?

    CStamp,
    @CStamp@mastodon.social avatar

    @StillIRise1963 The only thing they can outlaw is acting gay in public. If laws prevented gayness, there would currently be no gay people. :(

    @CStamp @StillIRise1963 You realize that's still bad, right? Take it from someone who's family was forced to wear yellow stars: it's still bad.
