Hahahahhaha okay blame the voters and not the horrible results the dems have gotten for us. And their bad communication with their base. Clearly no point in talking to you if you think voters are to blame.

Seriously.
Voting for Kamala and Dems was all you needed to do.
But people bought the bullshit she'd be no different and also got caught up in lies.
Here we are.

a small but loud number of people on this website get so worked up when people remind them voting for kamala harris and urging others to vote for kamala harris would have prevented all of this. y'all need to either half or double whatever dose you're taking.

A stock this high in price shouldn't be a "Meme Stock", but chances are most definitely there's a "Meme Stock" element to this...

No. Harris lost because of racism, sexism, misogyny, and ignorant anti-LGBTQ+ bigotry.

Harris lost because White People, for the third time in a row, voted for the unqualified lazy pathologically lying criminally corrupt sexual predator, fascist authoritarian, and traitor.

Period.

If a candidate tells you what would happen if the other nominee is elected - and it happens just like she said - by definition you cannot say she ran a bad campaign.

She ran on the truth.

And folks should ask themselves why the truth was not enough for them.

9. Years of fearmongering have turned trans identity into a political weapon, with pundits and cable news fixtures painting trans people as dangerous or deranged. That rhetoric seeps into homes through television screens and fear-ridden articles and shapes how parents see their children.

8. Family acceptance remains one of the strongest predictors of mental health outcomes for LGBTQ+ people. Research consistently shows that those with supportive family members experience significantly lower rates of suicide, depression, and substance abuse.

7. This is not the first survey to ask this question, but it does reveal what seems to be a drop in support from family. The 2022 USTS reported that 35% of trans adults said their extended family members were supportive, significantly higher than the 11% reported in this latest survey.

6. Other members of the LGBTQ+ community report far higher levels of acceptance. A majority of gay and lesbian respondents said their parents and coworkers accept them—just over half in both categories—suggesting social familiarity has translated into comfort that has materialized in the home.

5. The numbers drop even further in other spheres: just 24 percent said their coworkers accept them, and a mere 11 percent reported acceptance from extended family. Together, the data reveal a devastating pattern—trans people are finding community with friends but not at home.

4.The survey, part of Pew’s broader examination of LGBTQ+ experiences, shows how isolated many trans people remain within their own families. While 58 percent reported acceptance from siblings and an equal share said the same of their friends, parental support lags dramatically behind at 31 percent.

3. The result has been a wave of abusive online spaces, from Facebook groups to local “parental rights” networks, that prey on parents. Now, a new Pew Research survey lays bare the toll of these tactics: only 31 percent of transgender adults surveyed said they are accepted by their parents.

More than 9 in 10 LGBTQ adults in the U.S. are ‘out’ to someone

Today, 96% of lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender or queer adults in the United States say they have told someone that they are or might be LGBTQ.
