Summary
LGBTQ Americans are deeply concerned about Donald Trump’s second term, citing his anti-LGBTQ rhetoric, policies, and ties to conservative groups like the Heritage Foundation.
His past actions and campaign ads targeting trans individuals have raised fears of eroding healthcare access, legal protections, and rights, especially for transgender people.
Trump’s alignment with the Project 2025 agenda, which promotes rolling back LGBTQ rights, heightens anxiety, despite his appointment of an openly gay treasury secretary.
Advocates warn of significant societal and legal repercussions.
After hearing Democrats talk about how they were “too woke” on transgender issues, I don’t blame anyone for feeling unwelcome.
My problem with that is, the only time I heard Harris say trans was when she was talking about prosecuting transnational gangs. Democrats didn’t lose for being too woke, they lost cause they don’t know how to talk about the economy to blue collar workers.
But with this Congress, this President, and this Supreme Court, including any additional conservatives judges Trump adds, no one in the crosshairs of Project 2025 should feel comfortable right now.
That’s kinda the point. I don’t see anyone rushing to be the Czar Of Extremely Low Egg Prices, but I do see them making a performative rule against one particular person in Congress about where they can relieve themselves…
With the qons, cruelty is the point. It’s not about making anyone’s lives better, even their own base.
Never mind not welcome, you’re not safe here. Find a way to get out. Any way you can. Apply for any job anywhere you can think of that will offer you a work visa. I am really sorry for any who can’t get out, but if you are queer, do whatever you can to try.
I will not be leaving California for a bit. That may not be sufficient to avoid all the crap, but it will help.
Next up from no shit news, water STILL wet?!? Check in tonight at 9, the answer may surprise you!
My passport showed up today. I need to get started on reclaiming EU citizenship now. Maybe I just commit and use this as a chance to start over somewhere better and safe enough to actually build a life.
But having already done that once, I’m not keen to restart my life thousands of miles away from everything I’ve ever known.
Fuck politics, one should just strive for justice and fairness in all situations. Remember that laws may not be applied justly or fairly, but laws change. Principles and ideals shouldn’t change. People who care should become lawyers, politicians, police, entrepreneurs and more. A lot of the anti-lgbt trash comes from religious fervor, all religions are trash.
You aren’t.
I’m fine with you being here, it makes conservatives mad, so it’s a win-win for me, but I don’t run the place, so… not really my call.
Pure speculation and fear mongering.
Well, considering you have no friends, as someone who does and a lot of them are LGBT, no boomer, they are afraid as fuck.
Im actually GenX. Being ‘afraid’ is just a way to keep the focus on them…because they hate it when its not.
Nothing bad is going to happen to anyone.
Ok boomer
Eat shit, cuck.
