I actually hate the direction that Democrats appear to be going with the “we should tone down the ‘woke’ stuff because that’s what turns people off” bullshit.

It’s just called being a decent human being. It shouldn’t even need to be a fucking political platform in the first place. People need to accept this shit and move on with their lives (which seemed to be happening around the time of Obergefell, but then came Trump).

I think capitulating to voices that were never going to vote for you any way, and taking several steps backwards in terms of LGBTQ+ rights/representation, is a really bad move. It’s not about posturing, it’s about protecting people’s basic rights to exist as they are.
