    Do you really think bigots would somehow disappear if the media disappeared?

    Bigotry has existed since the first proto-hominid caved in the head of the other proto-hominid on the other side of the hill because his fur was a different shade of brown.

    There’s not some magical point where everyone will live in harmony and unite against the rich.

      Nope, but it wouldn’t be at THIS level. We somehow went from “Mainstream Trans Acceptance” to “Democrats thirst for Transblood because it’s THEIR fault Trump won! Because they were playing women’s sports while diddling people in the bathroom!” over-fucking-night.

          Two months ago when the media had to pretend that “Gender dysphoria doesn’t exist! They’re sending Sylvester Stallone in a fucking dress to your little girl’s soccer game!” was a fucking far right conspiracy theory no one took seriously, instead of a far right conspiracy theory loved by fucking everyone apparently.

          I hate everything
