Welcome to America. The first amendment only applies to fascists.

[–] anarchy79@lemmy.world 7 points 4 days ago (1 children)

They also always been hogging the 2nd for much the same reason. It was supposed to protect from tyranny.

These people are the exact sorts of people that the Second Amendment should be used against...

Speed run getting elected as a Democrat this cycle, get arrested or indicted by the Trump regime.

It’s the Michael Scott meme, “I’m going to vote for her even harder”

[–] No_Ones_Slick_Like_Gaston@lemmy.world 23 points 4 days ago (1 children)

I just donated to her campaign fund, not a lot but more effective than spewing anger over what they did to her.

Yeah, this will hopefully end up being a huge boon to her campaign. It’s proof that she’s not just an empty talking head; She actually puts her words into action. People are sick and tired of out-of-touch nonagenarian lawmakers shitting in the pool right before they get out.

Yes, she’s been at the ICE facility constantly for a while now. She was the woman where video was captured of an ICE agent picking her up and slamming her down on the ground.

She should press charges but of course everyone "won't recall" which agent that is…

[–] ksigley@lemmy.world 16 points 5 days ago

Yup. Been following her on BlueSky. She's the real deal.

[–] avidamoeba@lemmy.ca 72 points 5 days ago (1 children)

This should be good for her, assuming she doesn't get jailed.

[–] Zachariah@lemmy.world 23 points 5 days ago (1 children)

Trump will approve of her being in the government if she’s a criminal, right?

A cute women that knows what she wants?
Silence her!

[–] frongt@lemmy.zip 35 points 5 days ago (5 children)

Her appearance has nothing to do with this.

[–] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 51 points 5 days ago (36 children)

i follow her, she's awesome and I really hope she wins.

but it would be false to claim her youth and aesthetic don't help her charisma.

it does, but that doesn't mean she isn't serious or competent.

Hope she wins, we need her and people like her.

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 8 points 5 days ago (2 children)

helps and hurts. wish I was in her geography as I would vote for her.

[–] IAmNorRealTakeYourMeds@lemmy.world 23 points 5 days ago (3 children)

doesn't really hurt her. just bigots will insult her for being pretty, or if she wasn't, they would insult her for not being pretty. they'll always use misogyny against any woman who's against them.

Kat made a post on Bluesky once where she showed a tweet by a Republican who was asking people to "stop posting photos of [Kat] when they attack her because she's genuinely attractive and that makes the attack not land" or something along those lines. I wish I'd saved it. It was a solid self-burn.

That Republican was basically afraid that Kat would steal male GOP votes simply by looking good lol

[–] bitjunkie@lemmy.world 11 points 5 days ago

She is cute af on that real though

To her opponents, appearance is basically the whole of her worth.

I mean, it kinda does. The fact that she is young, attractive, and media savvy means that people will pay more attention to her (not saying that's good, just that it's how our society works). The more attention she gets, the more of a threat she is to the regime, which is why the they're trying to prosecute her for getting assaulted by ICE.

who cares what she looks like

[–] TachyonTele@piefed.social 4 points 4 days ago

As pointed out by multiple people already, if you bothered to read anything, Republicans care.

[–] mrgoosmoos@lemmy.ca 5 points 4 days ago
