WARNING: Bannon’s radical right troll army is here.

Last year I decided to see what happened to the terf vs trans battle that seemed to come out of nowhere to set us against each other during the 2018 election. Guess what I found...
It had almost completely moved to Portugal, along with other constructed left wedges designed pit our counterparts against each other.
Portugal’s 2019 elections had the lowest turnout ever and resulted in the far right CHEGA party gaining a toehold in parliament.

Alrhough Steve Bannon’s “The Movement” is widely considered a bust, but he did manage to inch Europe further into the clutches of far right nationalism. We cannot allow that to happen here.
In 2020, Trump and his far-right nationalist supporters are an existential threat to our liberal democracy. We risk sliding into illiberal democracy like Russia, or worse.
We face serious racial issues as this election approaches. We, the Resistance, stand in solidarity on our core values. And that’s what is important.
Do not be distracted by alt-right trolls posing as one of us attacking irrelevant garbage.

For example, instead of protesting cops killing George Floyd and systemic racism in policing, they want you arguing about about purple people in a kid’s book which teaches respect for people whether they’re red, blue, or (gasp) the two colors mixed together.
Even if you think that purple people is a standin for dark-skinned people in a book with both pale and dark skinned toons wearing purple (and other colors), do you really want to risk throwing the election arguing about *that*?
If so, you might as well put on your MAGA hat.

Expect every non-mainstream issue imaginable to be thrust upon us. If it exists, or even if it must be conjured up, it’s coming. And it will be the most important issue ever to some random account you follow.
Guess what: I support gender-neutral bathrooms. I’ve actually used them in China. The design is different than Americans imagine and they work.
It’s also not something I will be advocating for in this election.

If you recall, that was a big deal in 2016. Then it wasn’t. That one will almost certainly be brought up in 2020 too.
I won’t fall for it. The most important thing this November is to #SaveOurDemocracy from Donald Trump.
