If it was actually evil or "reality-eschewing" to call the NYT a fascist rag, someone would have gotten a glowing profile in the NYT for doing so by now.

For ppl who aren't aware:
Old temperate forests are insanely rare nowadays and extremely important ecosystems lost forever once cut.
They're not just "old trees" but intricate networks of trees, fungi and all kinds of living creatures.
You CANNOT replant this!! Once it's gone it's lost FOREVER!!!

Fascists care what everyone is doing. Also the scouts have a lot of military connections with bases and stuff and they tend to be a feeder to the military. So Hegseth threatening to end all connections would impact the scouts.

Also they want to bring back Boy Scouts as a boys only club

Yeah I can’t see how they would know. Either they just trust you or they ask for your birth certificate which could be updated .

Then again there’s no way for them to tell to begin with that an out of state person is trans unless they start demanding birth certificates and even it could be updated

Tbh I didn’t hear about that possibly bec I hadn’t heard anything about her in like over a year but that doesn’t surprise me at all

I’ve seen a lot of people excited for AOC…and not very many people saying they wouldn’t vote for Kelly in the general. Idk what forums you’re on.

I also see Pritzker brought up a lot who would be yknow ok. Much better than Kelly and far better than Newsom.

The Newsom fans bring him up because if he ran as a Democrat they prob would take Vance as their second pic after Newsom

True. I wish blue states would reissue their own birth certificates for trans people from other states.

They’re saying that a trans person who lives in Kansas and came from out of state with a updated birth certificate would be forced by Kansas to have a mismatch between birth certificate and license making them totally unable to vote.

Kansas is hateful enough they would amend the law to make the state for pay the new licenses. They are one of only like two states that invested funds in making lists of trans people to revert.

That’s why they’re talking about β€œwhether they were sent a notice or not” some people are coming in and having it updated to AGAB without any notice being sent to them out of fear.

Ironically I have to wonder how they are proving it. Is the department taking the latter at their word?

27.02.2026 18:53 β€” πŸ‘ 7    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

There are definitely more than 300 trans people in Kansas, the department is likely unable to actually track all gender changes in Kansas history and only went back a few years plus there are trans people who came from other states with already changed documents so they are also undetectable

This is why I said Biden should put Biden branding on all investments. People are stupid. Help red states and you’re really just propping up Republicans who take credit for the thing they fought against while you get none. It’s just a net negative politically.

I feel like we need to figure out how to communicate this to cis people. Not only does GAC transform our lives in incredibly positive ways, the fact that many of us did not get to start earlier fills us with grief, regret, and real loss. So much wasted life potential that we'll never get back.

And you’re just lying. 58 percent of state funds come from NYC. But NYC only gets like 40 percent of NYS funds, the rest goes upstate.

Do NYC suburbs (who make their money in nyc so moochers) also pay more tax than they get bec they have rich people? Yes. But that doesn’t change the previous.

lol and pray tell what is your solution to the black hole left in nyc finances left by Eric Adams, themost definitely not progressive mayor and most unpopular mayor in nyc history?

Progressive say we should tax the nyc rich. Hochul, says no. So Mamdani only solution is changing property tax.

Hochul and NYS are β€œgiving us” our own money. Where do you think the money comes from, magic? Most NYS tax money comes from NYC. NYC gives more tax money than the we receive while subsidizing rural and suburban areas

What’s your excuse for your lack of understanding of taxes

19.02.2026 15:47 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

Either Hochul approves an income tax, or Mamdani has to do what any other mayor would do. Either slash funding to major services or increase local property taxes. Cuomo could be in charge and it would be the same thing except he’d prob do the former and we all know he wouldn’t be cutting police.

Also a wealth tax isn’t the rest of the state giving NYC money. Again that’s not just how reality is. The reality is NYC funds the rest of state with income taxes as most NYS wealth is concentrated in NYC. A two percent income tax is basically just a a tax on rich people in NYC.

He promised to do try to do things. He’s not a dictator, he can’t just unilaterally do anything. If you didn’t understand how electoral politics works that’s…your fault.

Hochul should get blame. It doesn’t matter what promises she made. At the end of the day NYC has a budget hole left by Adams.

18.02.2026 22:37 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

It’s the only thing he can do to fix the budget black hole Adams left unless Hochul approves a 2 percent income tax which she is not.

This is something the Nazis used to do to Jewish children in the camps. It happened to a man I knew when he was a child in Auschwitz. The camp guards thought it was funny as hell.
