    A lot of the times people tried to justify their opinions on gay people by saying that humans aren't asexual and so it's okay to call them filth because duh nature or something.

    Forget the fact that it's incredibly common for at least 20% of the males of any species not to reproduce at all.

    I don't think she would. She was replaced in her lifted seat because the constituents no longer wanted her to serve. She wasn't accused of anything what happened to Cheney is called democracy.

    It's almost like you read my post and confused it with some other one because what you're saying has absolutely nothing to do with what I was asking.

    Thank you!
    Straiight people really can't understand what one goes through as a gay person, but hopefully can gain a little perspective by hearing that.
    Thanks again!

    I’m not maga but I agree with him 100% that they are filth. I however wouldn’t support the notion they shouldn’t be in our state.

    Looking at the posts in this thread one can see how Hitler succeeded in carrying out the Holocaust

    He isn't likely to get any LGBTQ votes.

    Do you really think that politics are that insular? Those two have votes in our national Congress, and if they stay there long enough, they will rise to positions of authority on key House committees. Furthermore, they are two of the best known members of “The Squad” which has a huge amount of power within the Democrat Party. This should have great concern to Jewish voters.

    Just as you revel in labeling all Republicans as MAGA, there are elements of your party that can be embarrassing too, unless, of course, you believe in their plans to kick Israel under the bus or even turn against the LGBQ+ community if it suits their purposes.

    Simple and also completely irrelevant, since we're not in danger of going extinct nor is a human's value measured solely in their ability to reproduce.

    So, you can't post their quotes about LFGTQ are filth and not wanted.
    Why did you claim they said that or something similar?

    I didn't claim all Republicans are MAGA, but all MAGA think like the OP Senator.

    It's the Christian thing to do and as long as you're on top it ain't gay? Damn libs just don't get it? That's some brilliant stuff you've shared with this post. Curious, how much student loan debt did you rack up?

    Or, perhaps, there is a much larger population than you think of people who have always identified as non binary or gay or trans. And now, they feel comfortable enough to come out because the climate of hatred and disdain has been drowned out (or at least tamped down) by a movement that has their back.

    That's not that complicated straight people do go through similar things it's just not related to their sexuality necessarily and sometimes it can be.

    I had a friend that married a black girl and he was a white guy and he had his family all over him over it some of them even disowned him I didn't even face that when I came out.

    Yeah, but at least in America we don't try to silence the minority.
    Oh wait, oops!
    Except in Oklahoma.....

    They aren't going to silence it. Any attempt will blow up in their face.

    That's what free speech is for it you ever wondered

    I'm more worried about the contagion of stupidity that has taken over the GOP. Period.

    Hence the word "try" in my statement.
    It may not blow up in their face, at least right away, but over time it won't change anything except to lengthen the learning curve.

    I personally think it's a good thing when they take their mask off. It makes it visible for everyone and I don't think too many people agree with this.

    Now he might not get forced out of office because when you elect a politician you elect the good and the bad because they're wrapped up in the same person.

    MAGA is a campaign slogan people are using to paint an entire group with a broad stroke. (Just like racists do) Im not sure why you insist on posting false information after I have correct you several times. I am neither a trump supporter nor a Republican.

    I simply understand their position. Can you name a single policy you just don't understand?

    Still no takers here?

    I wonder why the source didn't just quote the man in his entirety? Does anyone have a theory for that?

    Wrong. It's a political movement that has taken over the R party.
