If the civil rights movement "met people where they're at" there'd still be whites-only water fountains. The only rights it would have secured is voting, certainly not banning housing discrimination or legalizing interracial marriage.
It definitely is a purity test because everyone does has rights but the Trans issue (as far as sports,etc) is still extremely unpopular and isn't supported by majority of Americans (both parties).
You have to meet ppl where they're at. It's not hedging anything it's working across disagreements

I bet a lot of people have had an experience like this with a bad boss - there’s an email in your inbox on Saturday night saying, “Prove to me your worthiness by Monday or else.”
I’m on the side of the workers, not the billionaire asshole bosses.

If you’re cheering for a South African sociopath to fuck over US military veterans then you should probably stop with that America first bullshit.

Trump is a pathological liar, example #8567.
Yesterday on Air Force One, Trump claimed Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent was treated “rudely” in Kyiv and that Zelensky was “unavailable to meet him.”
One problem: they met. It’s on video. WATCH.

Being a man doesn’t equal treating women like trash.
JD Vance: "Our culture sends a message to young men that you should suppress every masculine urge ... my message to young men is don't allow this broken culture to send you a message that you're a bad person bc you're a man, bc you like to tell a joke, bc you like to have a beer with your friends."

Absolutely this. I’ve been reporting on ASMR for over a decade now. It’s a relaxation tool that is supposed to produce sensations associated with being calm and happy, even lulling people to sleep. The White House invoking it alongside immigrants being shackled w/o due process is social manipulation
I think most people are intuitively aware of this but something like the official White House account posting an “ASMR” video of shackled immigrants is not just cruel for its own sake, it’s intentional envelope-pushing to ramp up to desensitization over inhumane detention, camps, and deaths

It remains amazing that there are more anti-Trump people who became pro-Trump *after* January 6, than pro-Trump people who abandoned him following the insurrection.
I’m sorry but Niall hasn’t been a critic of Trump in a very, very long time.
The historian was once a critic of the president-elect, but now says he is glad that Donald Trump beat Kamala Harris — and has already visited him at Mar-a-Lago www.thetimes.com/uk/politics/...

Seems like it should be a really big deal that Trump just promised that on his first day in office he'd sign a medical death warrant for all trans people and ban us from not just the military, but all K-12 schools... but not a single major news site is currently covering it.
