A short list of traitorous pieces of shit who benefited from the rights that progressives and liberals fought for and who quickly turned their back on those Progressive and liberal values:

Conservative black folks - Byron Donalds / Candace Owens

Conservative women - Megyn Kelly

Conservative gays - Lindsey Graham and Jillian Michaels

Conservative Latinos and Latinas such as all of those assholes singing I will vote for Donald Trump

Conservative union members

The common thread is conservatism which is a uniquely selfish and shitty philosophy.

Don’t forget the Michigan Muslims who embraced Trump when he lied to them about stopping the genocide in Gaza. Come to think of it, a lot of these self-deluded chumps can’t tell when they’re being lied to; it’s a kind of conservative cognitive deficiency.

i would add that they could not bring themselves to vote for a woman to be POTUS, for whatever social, cultural, or religious reasons, but felt just fine going to her rallies to complain and act out because of Gaza (yet did not do the same at Trump rallies). They were damned fools for thinking Trump would lift a finger to protect Palestinians in Gaza. President Epstein covets that real estate known as Gaza.

Evan, terrific post.Thank you! I especially like getting your book recommendations, and I hope you will create a Moral High Ground bookshelf to keep track of the titles you mention at your substack.

Small “c” conservatism stolen and twisted, warped into something unrecognizable. Not conservative, not Christian

Conservative (small c) has absolutely been mutilated, especially over the last 45 years.

I would like to believe that. But the reality is, the loud and angry Christians are the ones everyone sees.

Not much attention is paid to those of us who are simply loving our neighbors, no exceptions. We do not lead the news stories, unless of course, it's for being arrested on the charge of giving a homeless person a sandwich. or leaving bottles of water in the desert. Then, we might make the second page.

You're certainly right. It's the hate preaching Christians (who can call themselves anything they like - it's still a relatively free country) who get the notice and the publicity - and with Paula the Pilferer, a front row seat in the short-fingered vulgarian's White House.

Agreed. As far as I'm concerned, they are the epitome of American Christians

Why didn’t someone interview Lindsey Graham?

Still thinks he’s in the closet? Is Lyndsey an example of a Trump a-gay?

bakeneko's avatar

Still a c-gay, apparently.

As a 67 year old 🏳️‍🌈🇺🇦🇨🇦, I approve this article. MAGAY is an absolute abomination of everything we fought for since Stonewall.

My fellow Jews and I often comment on how fucking stupid Stephen Miller must be to think he's safe from what he is creating

Priceless observation! Hope I live to see it. How does one dispose of a “sexual matador”? With a gay cabullero, of course. Doesn’t even have to hate his Jewishness, just has to be bullish for America (ALL of it!😉🤣).

I was fond of reminding them what Republicans call a Log Cabin Republican when they leave the room: FAGGOT!

"queen out over table scraps" is the funniest thing I've read all week.

"a certain brand of equestrian and/or golfing lesbian who also has embraced a similar kind of wealthy white privilege"

Also found in lawyers. Don't assume equality values in lesbian attorneys.

The most hateful and self loathing person in the Trump administration has to be Stephen Miller.

insert_something_creative's avatar

He is definitely the most hateful, I just don't know if you can be self-loathing when you lack a soul or any semblance of human decency.

That motherfucker is evil to his absolute core — he is 40 years old for fucks sake.

Holy shit hate makes you ugly

Excellent essay. Thank you.

THIS shit *quite literally* made my head hurt trying to unravel it, and I finally realized that unraveling it was impossible, and would only *RAVEL* my brain 🧠 if I kept trying to parse it:

“Nobody is meaner to gay people than other gay people,” he insisted. “Left-wing gays hate socially conservative Christians more than that group of people hates the gays, and I think that’s on public display every day on social media and elsewhere.”

None of my gay friends or family members like Short Fingers any more than I do, and I get the feeling that they do not understand why *anyone* would - no matter who and what they are. At least a couple have started referring to HWSNBN as Short Fingers. Makes me so proud. 😊 I do feel some pity for those red hat wearing gay people who think their whiteness and/or wealth is going to protect them from the 2025 crowd, just as I do for all women/Black people/Hispanic/etc., who are so deluded. It is going to come as a terrible shock when they finally realize that NOBODY is safe in trumpworld2025.

I believe you are spelling Charles' last name incorrectly. I believe it should contain two Os.

I lived in DC during the Reagan presidency and knew a lot of these AGays, particularly Robert

'Because, you see, at some point, Donald Trump is going to die of “cankles” or “rotting hands,” rapid onset dementia ...'

Evan, my friend: there has been nothing "rapid" about his dementia...
