I would rather be hated for standing up for who I am at my core than to be a sellout to my self and to my culture!!

Am I the only one that finds it strikingly odd that Idaho is where the Qataris are being given land? Idaho, which infamously is where a large number of the white supremacists (Aryan nation) in this country seem to gravitate towards as well? Something stinks!!

That is my opinion, we all have different opinions… I’m sure that not 100% of them are closeted, but when you are talking about an army of people coming at you, you aren’t worried about the one or two that are just going along with the crowd indifferently… the sentiment is the same!

Not for them, for the world to see

I am right there with you! Just day by day is how I go! I just try to remember that on the day I die that the only person that has to like the life I lived is the one looking back at me in the mirror!

Men who are secure in their own masculinity don’t bother with gay people, it’s the ones that aren’t sure of their own sexuality or identity that are threatened by gay people…..

If anyone in Portland sees this.. you guys need to come up with Jesus costumes, dress up as the Pope, Buddha, the Virgin Mary, and Santa Claus!! Let the world see ICE standing against those figures and that should put it into perspective for those bigots on the right!

Get one of those guys dressed up as a couch and you’ll have JD conflicted pretty quickly! He wouldn’t know how to control himself!

I honestly think that what we are seeing with these specific republicans is that they will soon have to exist in a post trump world realizing that his shelf life is expiring, they are doing this out of self preservation more than anything! This is reeling back in the psycho for their next campaign!

It’s a very strange world when you can find yourself in agreement with MTG….. strange indeed!

I’m not discounting that as a fact at all! It’s pretty apparent with him and all of his like skinned (well, white, not orange) supporters that they hate and perpetrate violence on people sheerly based on skin color! That is exactly why one of the first things they did is go after DEI programs!!

I’m betting though, there is a large number of them that have deep seated internal issues that they choose to ignore and in turn they deflect their self guilt outwardly onto other that have nothing to do with them personally!

Just a thought….

Perhaps the lgbtq community wouldn’t need any sort of mental health help if they weren’t unfairly judged, persecuted, harassed, ridiculed, and shamed by those bigots in society (most likely closeted themselves) that are probably angry at them because they have the courage to be who they really are!?

Nah, because he thinks in terms of hate and bigotry! His brain will not be able to process that being Latino isn’t about being of a specific color, he will not EVER be able to understand that our cultural makeups are what makes us unique! Because that would challenge their perception of reality!

Am I to gather that you believe that the Democrat party, or any generic political party is in some way a threat to democracy in some way?

Tired but resilient @elboricano.bsky.social · 1d

Ok, I’ll bite.. what are you talking about?

True, what he is doing to the U.S. is in no way entertaining, nor good in any way! I do admit though, it is pretty funny to see him embarrass himself on a daily basis with his rants and incoherent ramblings!
