They’re gonna pretend like they don’t care, but I bet it’s going to hit them a lot harder than Talarico.

Emotionally fragile and fragmented people are bullies. It takes far more strength to tame the roaring beasts within us than punishing/lashing out at others.
In short, those who can't control themselves seek to control everyone else.
He needs to just keep asking Rafael why he changed his mind on trump, and why he never stands up for Texans or his own wife against trump.
Gotta separate them from dear leader
Calling this guy derogatory names, but JD Vance out there wearing gobs of black eye liner on the daily giving interviews and trying to assert his alphaness. Keep on keeping on GOP
What’s wrong with men wearing makeup?
Nothing if you're not a hypocritical knob about 'masculinity'.
Man I can’t love Talarico enough, he’s the manliest politician I can think of right now.
I know this is unpopular but people who claim to be for things like feminism shouldn't be using "weak men" and "strong men" as categories no matter how you are defining those categories. This rhetoric should be thrown out completely.
I disagree. As a feminist there's nothing wrong with calling some men weak or strong, just as there's nothing wrong with calling some women weak or strong. Fascism and authoritarianism are ideologies of the weak. Weak women hide behind men demanding they make decisions for them rather than being strong and accepting the burdens of freedom. Weak men hide behind authoritarian leaders and strive to make women weak so that they can control us. Toxic masculinity is the domain of weak men insecure in their weaknesses trying to make up for absence of inner strength with machismo.
Strong men want women to be strong so we can all stand together as free equals. They don't fear the choices we might make or the choices they might make, because they're strong enough to endure unpleasantness, rejection, insecurity, etc.
This opinion should be thrown out completely. Dude's trying to win in Texas.
Okay sorry I forget toxic masculinity and reinforcing the patriarchy are okay if you are a Texas politician.
You've just repeated the kind of rhetoric that gives rise to _anti-feminism; your definition of "feminism" is less about empowering women than it is about suppressing men, and I don't like it one bit.
Talarico should get some tips from Hunter Biden. That dude is on fire.
Talarico should just challenge Paxton to a sanctioned fight. 100% he won't do it.
Talarico is nothing special and I don’t believe in voting, but the opportunity to end Paxton’s career is too great to pass up. Seeing him lose is worth showing up to the polls for.
...you don't believe in voting.
I can't possibly imagine how things have gotten the way they are
I’ve voted for 25 years and seeing where that’s gotten us makes me feel the same way. If this shit happens regardless my mental health would benefit from not even fucking trying.
Stay on your high horse, looking down on everyone. I said I was going to vote and now you’re discouraging me? You must really want me to vote and see Talarico win. Or are you a Ken Paxton fan?
I don't think "true scotsmaning" or joining them in reinforcing gender stereotypes is a good strategy.
