SM: Totally. And I have to ask, you know, if you have been with other sitting members of Congress who are Republican, who are part of that party right now in America, are likely preaching transphobia, why won’t you out them right now?

TS: Because Senator Lindsey Graham is the leader of the circus. So even though he’s dead now, like, no, this guy takes the cake. And if Trump were the one seeing me, you know, he’d take the cake. So at a certain point it’s like, they’re not the ones leading the conversation here. Senator Lindsey Graham was.

My only problem with Taylor's reponse is that there is/will be a new leader of the circus. Just because Ladybugs Graham is dead doesn't mean the circus is always going to be leaderless. Some new dingle berry is going to take over the circus.

Can you imagine having to be naked in a room with him?

Frankly she’s a traitor in my opinion. She could have set up a video camera and crushed him while he was alive. But she didn’t. Yet another selfish American.

She was a college student doing sex work, he wasn’t introduced to her by name and title. She says she didn’t recognize him until later and I have no reason to disbelieve her.

Plus, if you bother to read the article, she has been trying to speak out about this for over a decade.

Because this is not the first time I’ve actually talked about this. I’ve talked about this at least five or six times over the last 11 years. And every other time that I have tried to bring it up, I’ve either been silenced, shut down or no one really takes it seriously and they just think I’m lying or I’m making something up. But now that the late senator has passed away, it’s like now everyone cares.

Being that ready to throw a trans woman under the bus based on a bunch of shit you imagined isn’t a great look.

You’ve invented a scenario that includes me that is not reality. Blocking you. Tagging as maga.

Tagging them as maga is an interesting choice, given their home instance and the fact that they were defending a trans person. But sure, pop off I guess.

This is the sort of reason I have them tagged as "little shit".

They're just generally shitty and shitty to people here.

A person can be a maga simply by enjoying what maga has done, regardless of voting for them.

Lmao. Whatever makes you feel better. Would like to know how calling someone a traitor doesn’t involve throwing them under the bus, how criticizing you for making shit up is MAGA, or why you need to tag someone you blocked, but I guess someone else will have to do it.

Victim blaming is so in right now.

They can be.

I would consider anyone who had to fuck Lyndsey Graham a victim.

I do like him being burned from beyond the grave.

I never had to, and I feel like a victim just having to read this...

She did say she didn’t know who he was until later when she saw him on TV.

But sex workers, especially Trans workers I imagine, get a lot of hate from all sides so they might just be used to that.

Not that I'm defending Lindsay Graham in ANY way shape or form, but isn't it a professional faux pas to reveal your clients as a sex worker?

What’s more important social standing or fighting fascism?

Yeah but that only matters if you're going to continue doing that. If you're wanting to get out of the trade and trying to find something else... 15 minutes of very public fame can bring opportunities to the table you hadn't even thought about.
