Ugh this reminds me. Why do I have to sit through this stupid anti-trans attack ad every Sunday when watching NFL? We get it, Kamala supports all trans people. These assholes spent what, 20 million dollars, on the fringest of topics only to plaster their ads all over red states? What a waste. Trans people are people and don't deserve to be treated as a political tool.

I might be able to get behind this message but completely unrelated question: whats your opinion on NATO?

[–] jayk@lemmy.ca 14 points 2 weeks ago (1 children)

what does that have to do with this post?

Sometimes posters have motives that are different or even opposed to the explicit message of the singular post.

For example, OP thinks western nation's mutual defence pact is opposed to "socialism" which in other words means OP is a proponent of "socialist countries" like hostile dictatorship China and not actually a socialist.

NGL that's kind a creepy bro. Just enjoy the meme.

OP’s reply below gave it away.

[–] jayk@lemmy.ca 3 points 2 weeks ago

but that has nothing to do with trans rights really. Also, can one not be anti-NATO and anti-CCP etc.

Thanks for immediately derailing this post from the subject of trans rights, I guess

If it was ever about that it would not have been derailed, sadly.

It costs nothing to not come in here and do it yourself.
