#Fearmongering
by far the worst results coming out of last night are the anti-trans ballot measures passing in blue states - the fearmongering may not have resulted in electing republicans, but it has changed public opinion for the worse

I hope there's an immediate movement to challenge them in court

Republicans have made fearmongering about "socialism" the closing argument of their midterm campaigns because they've run out of ways to defend their failed policies.

i’ve been seeing people online going “ermmm, you’re hysterically fearmongering, it doesn’t acksully say you have to show your genitals” which is funny because the bill’s entire reason for existing is literally hysterical fearmongering.

You’ll never see centrists just come out and say “we oppose this because we need to protect capital.” Instead the Right identifies some scapegoat “other” that represents a threat from outside the state. The fearmongering creates a need to “protect the state” and stands in for capital.

It’s interesting that this is what white supremacism is about. They couldn’t stop the changing demographics they have been fearmongering about for decades.

Felt good to respond to someone fearmongering about "Muslims refuse to assimilate" because AES got elected with "I promise they're just people, they shop at Walmart, they go to football games, they watch hockey."

Ted Cruz is right for once and it was because he was fearmongering.
Ted Cruz yesterday: "The bad news is right now that Democrats have a lead. If the election were over today, the Democrats could well win every single statewide position in Texas."

The overwhelming majority of the money Elon Musk poured into Texas—at least $222 million that we know of—was spent fearmongering against our trans siblings.

The result? Paxton and Abbott on track to lose by more than a million votes each.

Can we please stop pretending that Democrats need to cave?

Stop giving the GOP credit for fearmongering

You remember all that Republican fearmongering over wokeness, and the tall tales of how Democrats are going to turn everyone into a communist and create 17 different genders?

Well, guess what, suckers? IT WAS ALL TRUE!

A vote for Rogers is a vote for more MAGA lunacy and all of the fearmongering, authoritarianism & bigotry that comes with it.
