    She was a college student doing sex work, he wasn’t introduced to her by name and title. She says she didn’t recognize him until later and I have no reason to disbelieve her.

    Plus, if you bother to read the article, she has been trying to speak out about this for over a decade.

    Because this is not the first time I’ve actually talked about this. I’ve talked about this at least five or six times over the last 11 years. And every other time that I have tried to bring it up, I’ve either been silenced, shut down or no one really takes it seriously and they just think I’m lying or I’m making something up. But now that the late senator has passed away, it’s like now everyone cares.

    Being that ready to throw a trans woman under the bus based on a bunch of shit you imagined isn’t a great look.

      You’ve invented a scenario that includes me that is not reality. Blocking you. Tagging as maga.

        Tagging them as maga is an interesting choice, given their home instance and the fact that they were defending a trans person. But sure, pop off I guess.

          This is the sort of reason I have them tagged as “little shit”.

          They’re just generally shitty and shitty to people here.

          A person can be a maga simply by enjoying what maga has done, regardless of voting for them.

              Anyone who supports a person holding evidence that could hurt the right wing is in my opinion supporting the right wing and I’ll tag them accordingly and treat them like shit in the future.

        Lmao. Whatever makes you feel better. Would like to know how calling a traitor doesn’t involve throwing them under the bus, how criticizing you for making shit up is MAGA, or why you need to tag someone you blocked, but I guess someone else will have to do it.
