      How? You claimed I was handwaving, but you’re the one handwaving. You project like a republican and you play into their hands by pretending trump is a special case when he’s really just following standard republican policy.

        Your links showed that Bush took far fewer actions on oppressing queer people than Trump. What did you expect me to say?

          If we’re going to play that game, how many wars did trump start vs bush? How many torture programs did trump start vs bush? How many surveillance apparatuses did trump start vs bush?

              You changed the subject first by ignoring all the heinous shit I listed for bush. There you go projecting again.

                I’m pretty sure I’m not projecting when you did, in fact, change the subject from their relative treatment of queer people.

                  Go back and read the thread from the beginning. I’m not going to play your bad faith games.

                    Why should I read from the beginning when you changed the subject a handful of posts ago? Would that alter the fact that you changed the subject? I’m pretty sure that accusing me of doing it first doesn’t alter what you did.
