Damn Al Qaeda!

Oh-- what's that?

Not Al Qaeda?

Well I mean they must be Al Qaeda because they hate the same peo-

No, it couldn't be U.S. Citizens. U.S. Citizens would never be terrorists like Al Qaeda.

Are you sure?

>DHS warns of domestic terror threats to LGBTQ, Jewish and migrant communities

Not sure why "domestic" was edited from the article's title. They specifically state: "Americans motivated by violent ideologies pose a “persistent and lethal threat,”

Oh look, the right wing's favorite targets. Oh well, at least they're leaving the single moms alone these days.

DHS could save a lot of time and ink by simply saying "White and straight = safe. Everyone else go fuck yourself."

>And adjacent groups and figureheads, like libertarians

The Libertarian Party has endorsed same-sex marriage since the year it was created, over 40 years before Obergefell and a mere two years after Stonewall when the LGBT rights movement began. The libertarians are the oldest political allies the LGBT community has, why on earth would you blame them of all people?

Libertarians are real heavy on protecting Free Speech. The term “Free Speech” is now being shouted up and down by rightwing folk whenever they get shut out for to spouting hate speech against LGBTQ, Jews, etc. So it’s easy to mix up actual free speech proponents and the bigoted crybabies we keep hearing about on the news.

Oh how times have changed, that party has been taken over by the far right and the top leaders now reject the positive messaging and active acceptance of lgbtq, among other groups. As many of us warned, the libertarian party has always been Hate LITE. Now it’s just open about it.

> The Libertarian Party (LP) faces the departures of two state-level parties as membership dues drop and some donors flee the party over questions about economic stewardship and the party’s turn to far-right messaging, Hatewatch has found through documents and interviews with former LP members.

> The departures came after the Mises Caucus, a group that espouses far-right rhetoric, won near-total control of the party at the LP national convention in Reno, Nevada, in May. Since then, the party has tweeted messaging that aligns with the hard right, including anti-LGBT and pro-secession posts. Prominent Mises Caucus members and state parties have posted in favor of repealing the Civil Rights Act, the 19th Amendment, which enfranchised women, and more. Hatewatch obtained a copy of the Mises Caucus’ “Reno Strategic Action Plan,” which details a plan to win control of the Libertarian National Committee and change planks of the Libertarian Platform to align with their views
