Some parts of this article are beyond parody.
It was unclear who originally produced the video, which featured a montage of muscle-bound men, bolts of electricity flying from DeSantis' eyes, and activists lamenting what they characterized as his efforts to restrict transgender rights.
And
The Log Cabin Republicans, a conservative group that advocates for gay rights, said Republicans need to stand up against "radical Left gays" but that DeSantis had gone too far.
"DeSantis and his team can't tell the difference between commonsense gays and the radical Left gays," the group said in a tweet late on Friday, saying the presidential hopeful "has just ventured into homophobic territory."
It would be helpful if the Log Cabin Republicans could define the difference between “commonsense gays” and “radical Left gays”. Is it something like the “radical Left gays” are in favor of higher corporate taxes or “commonsense gays” are in favor of separate but equal marriage equality? Or is there some other underlying schism between these two groups?
It's amazing that the Log Cabin Republicans have any faces left, what with the leopards regularly eating them.
Haha yup. Do we have a lemmy-leopard-face-eating community yet? Cuz this political cycle’s gonna be a face-eating fancy feast!
The radical left guys are woke. Whatever they think that means is unknown.
Agreed. Irony is dead. Ditto self-awareness.
If acting in good faith: insipid. If acting in poor faith (more likely): insulting.
Sorry for stinking up your inbox. The learning curve on Lemmy is going to be steep and painful apparently. 🤔
Hah no problem! Lemmy.world’s struggling with the increasing number of users, there’s the occasional hiccup to deal with.
You'll catch on fast. I've had a few weeks now and it all makes sense now.
