Quo Vadis GOP?

[The Minsky Moment]

It's possible for America to have a serious anti-lizard people racism problem and yet still have functioning sewage systems.

she says she never supported qanon.

Of course not.  She is an avid Dumas fan who mixed up "Where we go one we go all" for "All for one, and one for all"

See it turns out it's France's fault after all.

Not sure why a non American pointing out some obvious crazy shit makes some of you close ranks. Interesting visceral response.

It was a pretty innocuous starting point, all things considered.

Dumas is Q. PROOF!!!!!!?

I thought your response to a completely known point as a way to make another tired bigoted attack on the "cesspool" of America was interesting as well.

Well, not interesting so much as utterly routine and predictable.

That you are SHOCKED, SHOCKED I SAY that Americans find your bigotry objectionable isn't all that interesting either.

In a thread devoted to how fucked up the GOP has become, commenting on how fucked up the GOP is making the US, attracts denial from Americans.

Fascinating

You know perfectly well that what you just said is a flat out lie (in that no American has "denied" anything), and you know that everyone else knows it as well.

What is the point?

Everyone involved from the American side, you know perfectly well, agrees that the GOP is fucked up, and is fucking up America. So you know that it isn't how you just characterized it - you know this.

Yet you state something that is just a straight out lie that you KNOW is a lie.

Why? Do you value Zoupa stroking you that much?

You are a very tough guy over the internet

CC is threatening me. That is....awesome.

Being bigger doesn't make your arguments better. You'd think a lawyer would realize this.

Being taller does make your arguments better.  That's a fact.

I'm 188cm, ergo I'm almost always right.

Don't know if this is newsworthy at this point:

The Texas Republican Party has voted to shut out Log Cabin Republicans, an organization of gay Republicans, from participating in their convention. Log Cabin Republicans just said it is "shameful" they they are being "excluded" and that Republicans are being "narrow-minded."

Also:

The @TexasGOP has long opposed gay marriage, but its 2022 proposed platform has new language to describe homosexuality:

"Homosexuality is an abnormal lifestyle choice."

This language wasn't in the party's 2018 and 2020 platforms. Delegates will vote on the 2022 platform today.

[Josquius]

Being a politician is an abnormal lifestyle choice.

[Sheilbh]

And Obergefell and cases striking down anti-sodomy laws were pretty explicitly called out in that draft Alito decision and would be subject to the same logic. If Roe goes it's difficult to see them surviving. This stuff, as with Roe, isn't some secret conspiracy - it's a plan and strategy Republicans have been pretty open about for at least the last three decades.

All very good developments.  It's about time minorities of all sorts understood that the Republican party is their enemy.

Go ahead, sow the wind.
