Hello,
My name is CJ and I’m a trans man. I grew up in a small town in North Carolina and I still live there today. My dad is a Chilean immigrant and he came to this country when he was only 8, spending most of his life in the beautiful land of Puerto Rico. My mom grew up in Florida (where I was born) and has mainly Irish ancestry. I have two older brothers, both in college. One attends Juilliard, the other UNCC. Most of my friends are a part of the LGBTQ+ community. I also have friends who are children of immigrants, just like me.
When I was born, it was induced by medication and I was born 8 weeks early due to a disease my mom had contracted while pregnant with me. We both survived thanks to the doctors and nurses who helped my mom deliver me safely. Due to my premature birth, I have struggled my whole life with chronic illness and disability.
I am telling you all of this because I am scared. Tomorrow is November 5th, Election Day, and depending on who wins I may be in serious danger.
Please, for the sake of me, my friends, my family, the trans community, the chronically ill, the disabled community, immigrants, immigrant families, women who need access to healthcare, and EVERY. SINGLE. American citizen…
💙VOTE BLUE💙
I don’t want my rights to be taken from me.
who do you think would win in a fight
Chuds on twitter getting mad about Joe Biden stepping down because it "betrays the democratic voters" is a prime example of how reactionary the right is.
Republicans have been degrading, and systematically trying to prevent democrats from voting for YEARS, and now they suddenly care about the rights of democrat voters? I call BS
This is a prime example of moving the goal post. They always have to be mad about something. They can't just let him step down peacefully (as they and everyone else have been pleading him to), it has to be twisted into some moral failing on him and the democrats.
That is all kinds of wrong
As someone who lost their father to cancer I feel this is very important to share. Please vote in 2024, and vote for those who care more about the people rather than bullshit politics.
(I don’t typically talk politics or world affairs but this hit me hard.)
If it makes any of you feel better, Donald Trump will have an uphill battle to change the constitution. He will need:
-2/3 of Senators (60)
-2/3 of the House of Representatives (290)
-3/4 of the states (38)
In 2026, 33 senate seats will be up for grabs, and we’ll be able to vote for people who are against Trump and his ideals.
Breathe and remain hopeful because it’s not over. We can still fight and make Trump’s last four years hell.
Gee, I thought these people were the ones who were like “If you don’t like it, you can just move to a blue state.”
And now they’re mad the guy is doing just that?
You can’t oppress and discriminate against someone then be mad when they take their highly useful skill elsewhere.
Remember if you live in state that are banning abortions, delete your period tracking app, delete your health tracking apps on your phone, and don't reveal your identity at any protest to anyone except those you came with. Stay safe and stay alert
Note To Society #6
Your political opinions do define who you are.
Republicans aim to take away the rights of women (regarding rape, abortion, etc), LGBT+ people (regarding conversion therapy, banning transgender people from the military, banning gay couples from adopting, etc), and everyone who doesn’t share their views.
Democrats do the opposite, supporting abortion and LGBT+ movements.
Which side do you want to be on?
And on another note, Colorado managed to get Trump off of their ballot. If other states can do the same there may not have to be two evils to choose between, and that’s only if we can get other bad candidates off the list too.
something for everyone who is like "you have GOT to vote for biden or else we'll have trump as a president again!!!!", you're basically saying "as long as republicans remain as morally reprehensible and evil as they are, democrats don't need to be held accountable for anything because they're the 'better' option"
My mother just said she's convinced that Democrats and Liberals don't love their country
Yeah remind me again who stormed the capital because they were unhappy about the election results
right now it’s almost halfway through 2023, and 2024 is an election year in the US. I have started to see a growing proliferation of posts suggesting that there is no difference between the republican and democratic parties–the exact same kind of posts I saw an awful lot of before the last major election here. I am unfollowing folks who post or reblog these sort of posts, as I consider these posts to be fascist propaganda framed as leftist discourse, designed to suppress anti-fascist votes and voters.
Well, yes, it’s obvious why Rednote is a bigger threat now.
Literally the exact behavior of the Democratic Party
The cherry on top of Dracula's emotional and psychological manipulation is how Jonathan Harker was left in the wilderness waiting and waiting outside the Castle with wolves around in the cold of night...
And once Jonathan is let in by Dracula, he is welcomed to sit by the hearth: warmth, comfort, domesticity. Immediately, Jonathan associates the things the Count provides (if he's a good patient boy) with security and shelter from worse things.
Ooh, excellent shout! It's a very subtle manipulation that you wouldn't necessarily recognise in the moment as manipulation. In the span of this one interaction, Dracula is conditioning Jonathan to perceive him as a safe person to be around, someone who will provide for him and keep him safe, and it gives him a lot of power in the dynamic from the moment he introduces himself, because he is the only form of safety Jonathan will get.
America is no longer the cream of the crop. We are the chaff you put in a barn so animals can shit on it. Been embracing stupidity hook line and sinker since Regan, or probably before that. Good job defunding free will and free thought along with education. Goddess, we're dumber than a rock pile.
Proud to be a Texan woman, you say? Proud that you have to bleed to death in a perfectly modern parking lot in 2025? Proud that your vibrator/dildo collection could land you a felony and prison time. Die in agony from a man's sperm, but be punished severly for an ounce of pleasure because you are a woman. It's very obvious men here legally hate you, and you think that's a badge of honor. Must be somethin' in the water?
White dudes will be like, sorry it's my break or half hour til we close or it'sa holiday and Im not coming in go sit in the parking lot for hours and then come back and unload... for hours. What a burden your order has arrived? Brown and black dudes and dudettes anf white dudettes will be like, sure hon, let me get that for you and be done within the hour.
White dudes leave piles of stuff, nails, boards, cardboard you name it. Despite my protest or saying, that's good enough, the brown dudes will have all the scraps gone. They get shit done without the ramp. They dont even need the pallet jack if I dont have one. No one is stealing your job. Theyre simply doing your job and on a pay cut. Problem with DEI is it shined a light.
