    SCOTUS blocked Biden’s attempts to cancel student loan debt. But he kept working at it, and he’s managed to get some of it to go through. I expect that, even if red states and SCOTUS block specific policies that are intended to protect that rights of LGBTQ+ people that Biden will keep working to find a way around them that still follows the law. And, if we can manage to flip the House and retain the Senate, then maybe we can actually get laws passed, rather than only executive actions.

      I’m all for flipping the House and retaining the Senate! I’m voting Dem downticket, so if Trump wins it won’t really matter.

      But I won’t vote for genocide. Maybe next election Dems will fucking listen when I demand they stop supporting genocide.

      I really think the blue-no-matter-who’s would be better off encouraging this strategy. Biden is toxic. Cut him loose.

        If you don’t vote Biden, then don’t be surprised when Trump uses executive orders that accelerate the genocide.

          “If you don’t collaborate with polite fascism, don’t be surprised when the rude fascist is less polite!”

          Biden already goes around Congress to give Israel more weapons, so you’re literally talking about something that’s already happening.
