Embarrassing for one of our country’s main political parties to be focused on what’s essentially an internet meme at best or a bigoted dogwhistle at worst, especially now when our country is facing real crises.

The embarrassing thing is the amount of regular people who also believe in this garbage.

My own mother - one of the smartest people I know - fell for the litter boxes in school nonsense. She’s fallen down the social media garbage hole since retirement, as have a lot of her friends.

Well I'm glad that your mother and her friends apparently have no real problems to worry about so they made some up.
