14. It sickens me how we continue to be punched down on here
Fri Mar 7, 2025, 02:21 AM
Mar 2025

We're trying to live our lives in peace. We're not hurting anyone. Yet we have MAGA trying to erase us as Dems like Newsom and Moulton and many on DU want to play Let's Make A Deal with our rights and lives... Or worse, flat out attack us

I'm trying of hearing how I deserve fewer rights than cisgender people. I'm tired of being called a losing issue. I'm tired of being told it's not my time. I'm tired of being falsely accused of shit I don't do. And I'm beyond tired of hearing that I cost Dems the election
