They're both fuckin lit
Trump kissed drag Rudy Giuliani. Dont even have words for how dumb some of these posts r.
You know how many transgenders they've got down there? A Brazilian!
hides my copy of the 'Brazilian transsexual adventures Volume 2' under my mattress
And unlike with right-wingers, there was consent and happiness
I hope for a day that people look back at this image and don't understand why this was a "radical act that almost makes me tear up".
I'm looking at it right now and don't understand what's radical about it.
This may seem very intimate if you're an Anglo but in some cultures this is not more than shaking hands... The kiss on the cheek isn't very radical, the fact that she's is a transwoman in office in Brasil, is!
Time is a circle, there will be times where your wish is true and times when it's not.
idk, i don't think i'll ever meet a sentient pair of breasts with a coke connection
Honestly, I don't anybody even noticed it happened until today...
I’m in the comments looking for a reason… I mean, it was quite common to have men kiss on the cheek in some political spaces… what does being trans change to the equation? Is that “worse”?
It's like Mr. Rogers sharing a soak in the pool with a black character in the 60s.
Black person, my dude. A full blown, dark skinned, african descent, descendent-of-slaves black american citizen. Not a character.
I'm happy you got your little endorphin rush picking this trivial fight but what I said was in no way deserving of your condescension.
One could even argue it's more relevant to clarify it was a character and not just a random guy in private to drive home the significance of it being televized.
I won't, though, because anyone nitpicking a comment like that is barely worth the time to tell off.
No fight here, random person. Or condescension.
You do you, champ. Black folks are "characters" in your world. At least that's an upgrade on how your grandparents talked about black folks...
You clearly learned nothing from that "black character" or the fact that Fred Rogers wanted kids to see black folks as equal, respectable, dignified citizens. Not "characters"...
You're right, there was no condescension there. I should have known you were coming from a place of genuine concern, my dude. You were able to learn everything about this clearly ignorant fool from one comment and used it as an opportunity to educate them. We're all so proud of you for carrying on the leftist tradition of infighting over the dumbest shit imaginable.
That's hobbyless behavior.
Champ.
Have you paid attention to politics lately? Obviously it isn't actually worse, but the left and right almost everywhere right now are racing to villainize trans people. Most politicians will do everything they can to avoid even being seen in the same room as a trans person right now.
because trans basically has no represenation anywhere.
So ... Lula won? First I'm hearing of this good news!
Bro, where have you been? I've been celebrating since Sunday night.
Bro, where have you been?
Pretty far away, and almost entirely unplugged from mainstream media.
Based.
No need to brag /s
Serbia changed for the better too!
Bolsanaro is contesting as hard as he can and US might do a coup, but yeah, he won.
Contesting as hard as he can by
checks notes
fleeing the country like a little criminal bitch.
I only saw that after I posted.
I have to believe he did that just to make me look like a dick.
Or because the writing was on the wall he was gonna get sent to jail, and let me tell you about Brazil jails...
It's hardly typical for the losers in Brazilian elections to go to prison. If he's worried about that, I think it implies he's done worse than simply losing an election.
He is involved in Master Bank defrauding of public pension plans. Master Bank's owner, Daniel Vorcaro, gave a ton of money to "make" that bolsonaro movie (dark horse), aka money laundering. Vorcaro has stolen something like 50 bi R$ from the pensions, Flávio, shit-his-pants, Bolsonaro got millions out of that.
And that's the tip of the most recent iceberg. His first job was as a ghost employee lol
I'm cis and also I'd like to be kissed in the cheek by Lula.
Who wouldnt? Man is like the fucking irl lorax
Lula is a cool grandpa!
Lindsey Graham was doing this for years though.
