People who support this aren't American anyway. Real Americans believe in human rights
Have you read black history in the US? :)
Or read about native Americans? I say read because they are almost extinct
Or, like, any pre-2008 American history lmao
Recognizing human rights was an anomaly over the last few years, not the norm
You're not wrong, but I also don't think the US is unique in that regard. There's been a lot of bullshit going on, even in countries that you would never imagine things like that happening in.
In most decent states there's been a ton of progress. I never claimed we were always perfect. No country has been.
No I know. I would say all countries are pretty fucked up actually. Because human leaders are greedy and awful human beings in most cases.
You say "decent states" as if you think rural east Oregon is better than Atlanta in that regard, just because Oregon is blue and Georgia is red.
The US were built on genocide and fueled by slavery.
Most countries were. You can't work backwards. You have to work forward towards the future

Who upvotes this no true Scotsman bullshit?
I'm sorry, but when you actively support bullshit laws like this that dehumanize people, you don't get to call yourself an American. Simple as that
To be clear, I am not defending them. I am just pointing out bad logic because it leads to bad beliefs and opinions.
Unfortunately, these people are Americans, and there's a whole bunch of them. There is no value whatsoever in trying to argue otherwise.
All I'm trying to say is that fascism is decidedly un-American
Unfortunately that seems to be changing. It's almost as if this country learned nothing 80 years ago

bans identifying as human
The sad thing is that Mango Mussolini would be stupid enough to actually pass something like that.
