From late-night host cancellations to removing LGBTQ+ history from government sites, politicians in both parties are contributing to the overwriting of the internet — a place where lots of queer and trans people first find community.
Because they are assholes losers that care more about winning than the disgusting things they have to do to win.
There is no honor or decorum left in politics, just naked greed and the concentration of power. Our politicians are the result of the corrupt environment they live in.
Until we seriously start removing money from politics we will be stuck in a ever increasing enshitification feedback loop where the only people who are represented are the wealthy.
