Marjorie Taylor Greene held an anti-trans rally at the Capitol & almost no one came

https://www.lgbtqnation.com/2023/01/marjorie-taylor-greene-held-anti-trans-rally-capitol-almost-no-one-came/?utm_id=sidebar1

Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) held an anti-trans rally at the Capitol this week. A whopping 12 or so people attended and no major media outlets covered it.

The rally was a veritable who’s who of contemporary transphobic trolls, including members of the book-banning “parents’ rights” group Moms for Liberty; members of the anti-LGBTQ conservative think tank Heritage Foundation; de-transitioned young adult right-wing media darling Chloe Cole; J.K. Rowling fanboy Chris Elston; conspiracy theorist James Lindsay; sexually harassing “comedian” Alex Stein; and of course, Greene herself.

creating new lies about himself, a full-time job.
Those lies don't write themselves you know.

put the box over her head so we didn't have to look at her.
It's getting so the mere sight of her is enough to send me into fits of psychotic rage. She doesn't even need to speak anymore. 😬

She reminds me of every sanctimonious, bullying (expletive that would give DU the vapors) I ever had the displeasure of attending school with or working with down south. They're one of the main reasons I high tailed it out of there as soon as I'd saved a few bucks in the late 60s. Everything about that (another choice expletive) is grating beyond belief.

Were she not that peculiarly southern "type," I might be able to listen to her for her occasional howlers like the German Gazpacho and Jewish space lasers. As it is, any video that features her languishes unclicked.

Not just the ones she likes or picks n chooses. She’s a disgrace as a human being

Reporters need to let that disgrace to humanity walk on by. What part of freedom and liberty does this person not get?

Intent on staying miserable all day and he’ll bent on making as many people miserable as possible. And instead of leading, governing and managing money, republicans at the state and National level egg conservatives on as their winning strategy. Scream, shout and hate what you don’t understand, then chuck some of the little amount of money you have into the collection plate at church, go home, go to bed and wake up miserable tomorrow.

moment of the day is persecuting and spreading hatred on others. A very sick bunch. They live for persecuting others.
