How come when folks get told that b/c they’re liberal & live in a city, they’re somehow not ‘Real America’ & ‘hate Real Americans’ or even ‘godless heathens’, that’s ok? Maybe because they’re s fuck-huge double standard that treats us as invalid and untrustworthy from the start?

This doesn’t even get into the compounding issue of ‘identity politics’, the supposed invalidating thing where it’s ok to make laws that hurt a specific ‘identity’ b/c they’re a minority group, but if they advocate for themselves on that basis, that’s somehow the real bigotry?

So fuck the folks like @bariweiss and @nytimes that peddle and normalize this gaslighting abusive spouse-like bullshit with constant apologist claptrap. They might have Stockholm Syndrome, doesn’t mean we have to follow along. #JustSaying #gaslighting

I’m just fucking exhausted. This feels like the arguments of the Bush era magnified severalfold.

We’ve somehow raced back into ‘torture maybe is morally good’ and the full on persecution complex of the GOP treating the presence of a liberal thought ever as the greatest oppression ever. And with the media fully enabling all of it.

Apparently we’re just not worthy enough to be treated like actual fucking Americans anymore.
