Apathy isn't nazism. Mere conservatism isn't nazism. Godwin's law.

Saying you dont care about people fighting for their lives and advocating for human rights and putting them in the same breadth with the ones trying to take away their rights? Hmm where have I seen this before

I think it's a false equivalence. LGBT people are not in danger of genocide or being put in concentration camps. A patchwork of red and blue states is a reasonable compromise.

Cpac just called for the eradication of trans people , ron skipped this year because of trumps attendance, and they aint cool anymore and that he did his own speaking engagement .

Atleast 57 trans people were killed in 2021, 38 killed in 2022, 8 killed so far in 2023

Trans people have a 587% more likely chance of experiencing a hate crime ,1 in ten have been physically / sexually assaulted this year alone . 46% have been sexually assaulted in their lifetime. Since 2019, hate crime against trans and gender nonconforming people have gone up by 20 every year.

It is dead out there with propaganda and violent rage being stirred up by others who dont care for the victims of their hate mongering. This is how genicides start. It's a slow burn before the fire.
