Or is it more like a general strike for the LGBTQ community?
It's not very clearly written.

The examples of bills tell me it's directed towards the lawmakers or politicians.

schrieb am 25. Juni 2025, 05:46 zuletzt editiert vonThis is an excellent policy position, if only the argumentation wasn't dogshit. I am begging everyone even vaguely lib-left, stop writing like this. If you're trying to write a petition, open letter, or public statement, for the love of god write it for people other than yourselves or just don't say anything at all.
Internet censorship is bad for alphabet people, but it's also bad for the straights. It's bad for everyone. It's just bad.
Freedom is for everyone. And Heritage wasn't coming to the parade anyway.
