    Do right-wingers lament the lack of trans people on the right?

      No. As a rule basically anything you see here that the right is “panicking” about is a nothing burger to them.

      It’s the same with their news feed, they get articles about how the left is “panicking” over shit nobody actually cares about.

      More and more were hating fictionalized versions of each other and the ensuing culture war gives the 1% room to pave over our rights.

      We’re to the point now where the “wft I love/hate X now” meme isn’t a joke. The culture war is fully driving people’s values, not ideology.

      This is the main reason why people vote for trump, they want to win the culture war and don’t give a fuck about ideology.

      Next time you see a headline or article ask yourself if you actually give a shit or if you’re being told to give a shit. You’ll be surprised how often it’s the latter.

      95% of the memes here (like this one) here are just strawmen for culture war fodder.

          It’s easy to forget but paramount to remember that nobody is immune to propaganda.

      No but people do ask why so many trans people are leftists as opposed to regular ass liberals.

        Essentially what Nia Frome answers in The Problem of Recognition in Transitional States, or Sympathy for the Monster.
