TIL - There are black Republicans.
Clarence Thomas wasn't a Dem nomination for SCOTUS.
Oh yes. One of our senators is a black republican AND running for president. He seems like the nicest guy but so fucking stupid. Tim Scott.

Key and Peele sketch about it.
Weird, that video comes up as "not available". Maybe because it's published by "Comedy Central UK" and I'm not in the UK?
Regardless, here's another link for anyone who can't see the UK youtube link:

We. Are. Not. A. MONOLITH!
Said this to family members when one called trans people degenerates. I just got asked what "monolith" means. This is the stupid we're dealing with.
My biggest surprise was learning there are gay and Trans Republicans. Like, how does that even work? unless you are trying to demonstrate people what irony looks like, it is big brain time.
So it works by getting money, climbing the ladder, then yanking up the ladder and tossing a moletov on those below so that they can be a token for the default to go "We're not homophobic, see we have gay/trans friends!"
Some people build their identity around who they are their hobbies etc. Other people build their identities around money and lack of empathy and understanding.
