Yeah, I draw the line at performing for literal Nazis. That's a choice, and it's one I would refuse. If that makes me judgmental, then I guess so be it.

Imagine being so morally vacant that you'd agree to perform at this swinefest. Or agree to be a guest! Ugh.

Did you know? The scientific term for a group of TERFs is "a hatefulness."

I think a lot of people are going to regret not getting covid boosters this year. There seems to be a really horrible strain going around and previous infection doesn't seem to mitigate. Keep masking and keep boosting, folks. I know I am not trying to get any long #covid.

Heck, I come from German-American stock on my Dad's side and we called my paternal Grandma's best buddy "Aunt Faye." No blood relation whatsoever, but she was my auntie for all intents and purposes.
