i know we all know this but goddamn i'm so sick of all these fucking people that will have no problem calling all Somalis low IQ being like "I can't believe he's the same guy he was in his first term. I can't believe he's so racist." We should hunt these people for sport.

A very common dismissive response people get when they speak out about problems in the DFL is: “get involved” Luna lays out in detail here just a glimpse of all the free labor herself and others have poured into the DFL to try help them fix their transphobia problem and they still refuse to listen
