Former Sen. Sherrod Brown (D-OH), who is also the current Democratic Senate candidate for Ohio, found himself in hot water in a past campaign over his response to anti-trans attacks from Republicans, and now he appears to be taking a different approach.

Instead of trying to defend or explain his views on trans rights, Brown released an ad last week slamming Republicans for focusing on trans people at all, when there are so many bigger challenges facing the state.

    That’s right! Allowing the GOP to win will greatly speed up the, uh, “pacification” of the natives! Time is money, after all. Plus, you won’t have to feel bad anymore when they’re gone.

      Who did the genocide start under as president? Who lied to the entire country for 2 years about trying to stop it?

        Truman. Everybody.

        Who just shipped Israel 2.8B in bombs with zero controls on who they are used against?

          You’re right every US president is a war criminal and should be treated as such. Biden especially for allowing this genocide to happen in the first place.

            Lol Biden didn’t send 2.8B worth of bombs to Israel with no strings attached. That would be your daddy trump, who you helped elect.

            Good job!

              I hate Lemmy right now so much. The shills are out in full force. Half these accounts are a month old.

                I’m not sure which one you mean, but the guy you’re replying to (the one defending Biden) has a 3 months old account, the other a 1y old one. Usually people here claim it’s the other way around, and any criticism of Dems is always shutdown because it’s never “the right time”.

                    There was no need to get so need to get so defensive, but it seems I struck a cord. You decided to make that comment in a situation that was completely flipped relative to what you are saying. So I doubt you checked it this time. So is that really a trend, or are you perhaps just bias and also sucking off the Dems because it’s never the time to hold them accountable?

              He sure did fight for Israel for his entire tenure in office both as President and before.

              Biden ran cover for this genocide for 2 years while funding it to the tune of nearly $18 billion.

                See, this is how I know that you don’t genuinely give a fuck about Palestine, or genocide. You just want Republicans to win, and Palestine is a good enough token for today.

                  I mean you’re the one who is somehow gleefully talking about how Trump is funding Israel as if the Dems did or would be doing any different.

                  “If you cared about Palestine you’d vote for my guy” is a lot more tokenizing of the Palestinians than anything I’m doing.

                  I’ll never understand why y’all libs love genocide so much. I mean I understand it but it’s always shocking when people double down on being so evil.

                    Hey, they updated the script!

                    It’s funny that one can claim to be anti genocide, while being against any sort of attempts to stop it as well.

                    If you were arguing in good faith, you’d never say something like this. Your anti-democrat, pro-republican talking points sound super familiar though. Pretty much just like an account that did all these exact mental gymnastics leading up to the 2024 election and finally got permabanned for it.

                    Your whole schtick is “you cannot care about outcomes, that’s evil. You have to care about PRINCIPLES instead. Don’t hurt Palestinians by voting in a manner that will hurt them less, that’s evil, because you’re still hurting them! You must instead use your vote to empower Republicans!”
