> However, we know they care about kids.
This is just one more in a long string of lies. They absolutely do not care about kids unless it's about their right to marry them[1]. Or watch passively as they die to easily preventable diseases[2]. Or go out of their way to deny them access to food[3].

- phtrivier 2y agoI meant they care about _their_ kids. They don't fear their kids will be married in Wyoming, or part of mennonites, or poor. They're terrified that their kids could turn gay, or be raped in the bathroom by a trans men, or be denied a scholarship because some other diverse kid is getting it. Are those fear rational ? I don't know. Is one side much better at stoking such fear than the other ? I do know. Which side is going to keep winning until the other side gets it's act together, if it ever gets a chance ? You bet I have my opinions...
