Ron DeSantis’s flailing campaign team couldn’t let Pride month pass without stepping on their own dick.

    This is Adolf Eichmann levels of evil.

    Does he think we learned nothing from history? Does he think we are going to stand by and let him take power after repeatedly showing us who he really is?

    I can’t believe people in Florida aren’t marching by now.

      They tried to make it a felony to protest in Florida and DeSantis just veto’d a change to the law that would let people expunge arrest records when charges are dropped. So if you try to march you get arrested, probably not charged, but that felony arrest record follows you forever. Makes life way more difficult for you.

        He also made it legal to run over protesters.

      People in Florida fall into three categories, the beach goers, the drinkers, and those that hide in their houses from the heat in their air conditioning, so most people tend to not want to go protest, and many side with DeFascist.

      Also, DeFascist signed anti-protest laws back a few years back to counter the BLM protests, it’s very easy for an activist to catch a felony in Florida, and we need the votes more than we need protesters rn.

        As a Floridian beach/park goer who is totally fed up with DeSantis’ bullshit, I gotta say nothing gives me more satisfaction than to vote Democrat every election. Marching and protesting will do little to nothing here, we have to quash this fascism with our votes. Desantis hit poor black voters with felonies over fraudulent voter fraud charges (the charges brought had no merit) so I have no doubt he would mobilize police forces to give out felonies to any and all Dem voters that march or protest. I’m gonna rip this cancer out from the inside.

          Is the protest law being challenged?

      To be honest, I think people will just sit by and do nothing, even as their neighbors get killed over this.

      I really don’t know what the answer is.

    Transfolk to DeSantis is what illegal immigrants were to trump. It’s the boogeyman he’s created that only he can defeat. Conservatives need to be afraid in order to vote because fear is a hell of a motivator.

    And these politicians know exactly how to make them fear.

    This is also why they always seem to want to defund education. Dumb people are incredibly easy to spook.

    Not surprising, the party has definitely been more vocal on their hate in an attempt to vilify trans people over these part couple years. Wouldn’t be surprised if it was just part of the campaign plan.

      Did you read the article or watch the video? Is this the news you guys consume? Dear lord, no wonder you’re so angry. This is the same vitriolic cadence used by Trump and his ilk.

      “From there the ad takes a hard turn, with a deep house beat and images that work very hard to depict Ron DeSantis as the country’s most-based, faggot-hating, alpha male.”

      Why did the writer use “faggot-hating” here? Seems to me he’s just trying to incite even more rage and confuse you as to where that anger is coming from.

      creepy Blake Masters

      The fuck? This writer needs to be better and stop taking notes from Trumps playbook. How is this any different than Trump saying “deranged Jack Smith” or “sleepy Joe Biden”?

      Yes, you’re right, DeSantis is fascist. Fuck DeSantis and fuck Trump. But also fuck whatever insidious shithead who wrote that article for doing nothing but adding to the pool of hate.
