Major Payne hands down
If 3,000 dead sends you into a blind murderous rage, but 35,000+ dead is a normal, acceptable "numbers game," you're not concerned about life, you're just a genocidal racist.
1000% this. I live in the bible belt and am a big burly bearded bastard so people "quiet part out loud" at me with supersonic speed (1). I'd almost make a mortgage payment if I had a buck for every time someone said some ridiculous shit then I got in trouble for "getting political" aka politely and calmly engaging with the statement just made directly to me.
I didn't make it political. The person saying trans folk should "wear the right clothing" made it political. I believe the word you're looking for is "uncomfortable," and if you don't want it to get uncomfortable maybe tell HIM not to get political. If he says it, I have a right to respond - and silencing my speech but not his is an explicit endorsement of his speech.
(1) It has literally happened in like 5 sentences or less between even me and a stranger multiple times. "Hey what's up" "nothing much started a new job" "cool, I haven't worked in a bit but I worked at target for a bit" "why? Target funds ANTIFA TERRORISTS"
My ex's kid came out as trans to usat 11 or so, and like..... Yeah. This is exactly the time to play with your sense of self when it doesn't fuckin matter. We've been doing for generations, but all of a sudden feeling and wanting to present more masculine just gives everybody a fucking aneurysm.
Never mind the people who have nothing better to do than go to war with children grew up with David Bowie and Eurythmics and shit. 🙄
Why is it people who hoard wealth and use that wealth to hoard more wealth by fucking as many people as possible always get this dismissive "eh of course they do shrug," - but as soon as somebody finds wealth and is like "how can I do something useful with this" then uses that wealth to start a food bank and fund water/energy projects for needy communities we gotta spend our day breaking down how they're evil and sus?
Anyone who participated in J6 should have faced wartime charges, and anybody who refers to them as hostages should be arrested as enemy combatants.
They want to play war, time to start treating them like it. But nooooo we can't hurt the insurrectionist faschies feelings..... 🙄
"We see here you're up 5%, but you were up 5% last year too, so you're dead now."

Nobody thinks you're making a good faith argument here, dingus.
Be gone, troll.
I mean let's be real, to 90% of these right wing nuts "freedom of speech" really just means "freedom to force other private parties to support, amplify, and endorse MY speech as I stifle the speech of those who disagree."
The home grown terrorists are actively supported by half our government.
The 'terrorists' they're surveilling are community/union organizers.
Ive always had this feeling, increasingly validated lately, that there's some weird push to invalidate all women that the right doesn't find fuckable.
There's all this coming after women for having T, and before the Olympics there's been a rise in this "if you think this woman is attractive (generic female athlete), you're GAY" Content.
