      Also, a very large percentage of Latinos work in construction and construction has boomed under Trump. They look at democrats offering them nothing but vague woke posturing and Trump offering them years of steady work and increased wages and they say "fuck it, even if he's a racist piece of shit at least I can have consistent work".

        Seriously, Latinos are a broad group. The idea that they are just a maleable "not white" bloc who will unite in the intersectional coalition is just a completely anti-material and ass backwards take.

        Gringos on the internet trying to make "Latinx" a thing triggers working-class Latino men with fragile masculinity in exactly the same way that "campus liberals with blue hair" trigger a certain type of white dude.

      "Privileged" people are the ones who put Joe Biden over the edge! Trump did lose support with educated whites, especially white men. So you can't blame "rich cis homos" when the data doesn't actually show that was the case.

      LGBT people include white cis gay men who are incredibly privileged relative to the rest of the group

      Why must you do this cringe. Not saying "white people are racist, cis people are transphobic" won't make the problem go away.

              So you're focusing on one group because of your personal experience? All white LGBTs suck, they have no trouble being racist if it will make them feel more accepted by other white cishets.

              Seriously, singling out "gay men" won't help shit because they all hate us.

                  If you don’t think men are more privileged than women, idk what to say. If you don’t think cis people are more privileged than trans or non-binary people idk what to say.

                  I said that?

                  Or do you mean that them reading that will make them hate me?

                  I said that?

                      That you waste your time by playing in their "identity politics". They don't care that they are gay men, they care that they are white and cis. They act like any other white and cis person will.

                      So if you agree with that what did your first comment mean and how was me saying that cringe

                      Because the same could (SHOULD) be said about white LBT people and cis LB people.

                          Because I don't calculate how many oppressor points oppressors accumulate? Singling this group would make sense if it was the only one doing it… it isn't.

                              Forgive me but I don't think I'm speaking to you disrespectfully. I'm not going to act like I care for #civility but where the fuck does this come from:

                              Engage in good faith or fuck off. I’m so sick of this shit

                              Do I speak to you like that?

                                  I didn't come in hot, I made a comment calling it "cringe". I didn't imply you have no right to speak about LGBT issues. I'm sorry if (that) I offended you like that?

                                  At this point I feel like you take what I say in bad faith. Which would make sense if you think I called you a cishet. But what the fuck.

                                      Oh god I just deleted my reply, I aint typing it out again. TLDR I understand but I don't quite agree because the way I approach this is different

                                      This was in response to the implication that "crossdressing" is more accepted now:

                                      I am once again, asking Chapo to log off and stop making up fantasies about LGBT people

                                      If it helps clarify some stuff, I'm from a Latin American country and nobody would say that with a straight face. "Stop making up fantasies about LGBT people" is a very mean way to say that #yourexperienceisnotuniversal and that there are LGBT people outside of the US/the West.

                                          Also the person batch downvoting you here is cringe.

                                          I can always say that it's because I'm @gay so they're homophobic.

                                          If that was the only shitty thing I said then we're good. I'm experiencing a lot of anxiety today so I did not deescalate or attempt to explain myself better.
