I swear, you Democrats completely suck at picking and choosing your battles, and that's part of why you're stuck with weaklings like Schumer. Do you think someone's going to have the guts to stand up to Republicans if they grovel and beg for forgiveness the second someone gets offended over a joke they made? Weak.

There's Republicans out there working to literally erase gay and trans folks from the planet. Those Republicans are the people you need to focus on fighting, not the guy who made a bad joke yet is clearly on our side.

Wrong answer, princess. How about you shut the fuck up about MY country and fuck off back to Weak Bitchistan or wherever the hell you hail from?

I don't have time to deal with pussies like you, I've got Republicans to fight. Go get your panties in a bunch about nonexistent "homophobia" elsewhere.

Hell, you're probably just some Russian shithead looking to stir up trouble anyhow, so go gargle Putin's sack why don't ya?

So because of fascism we ~~just need to sit down shut up and tolerate homophobia?~~ need to sack the fuck up and stop getting our feelings hurt over shit that doesn't matter, before my ass gets thrown in a deportation center by the fascists.

Fixed that for you.

Get it through your skull: I'm not your enemy just because I laugh at jokes you don't like.

I'm the one fighting on your side, and Republicans love nothing more than to see you beat up on me for whatever I said that "offended" you.

You weak-ass Democrats could use all the help you can get right now, in case you haven't noticed. I guarantee Schumer or Jeffries isn't going to fight to save your ass from Republicans getting rid of you. I, however, will.

So yes, sit down, shut up, and tolerate a bad fucking joke while men like ME do the heavy lifting for you fucking pussies.
