If this doesn’t prove that the Trump Administration is infested with bigotry and hate then nothing will. This is what a fascist does. Dictators fire people for simply believing differently on social issues than them. The Trump administration is now weaponizing I.C.E. to target people who are just protesting. This administration is using the military in every major city in America to remove homeless people from their homes and putting them into prisons, and ruining their lives for simply trying to survive. Some of these people include pregnant women, disabled people, and even veterans.

>FBI Director Kash Patel fired a bureau employee this week, reportedly for displaying an LGBTQ+ Pride flag at his workstation.
>“You are being summarily dismissed from your position as a New Agent Trainee at the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia, and removed from the federal service,” Patel wrote, according to [MSNBC](https://www.msnbc.com/msnbc/news/kash-patel-fires-fbi-agent-trainee-displaying-gay-pride-flag-rcna235306). “After reviewing the facts and circumstances and considering your probationary status, I have determined that you exercised poor judgment with an inappropriate display of political signage in your work area during your previous assignment in the Los Angeles Field Office.”
Lavender Scare 2.0. This is utterly fascist in every degree.
This is another indication that Republicans are genocidal maniacs, trying to murder and erase the existence of us queer people. It’s fucking sick how hateful Christian nationalism makes people.

This country sucks. It’s not really debatable at this point. Our already meager “freedom” is eroded more and more everyday. And half the population is ok with that. Shit hole country.

I hope when this regime falls this man will be one of the many held accountable. I imagine he will be one of the first thrown under the bus for obvious reasons, but in all honesty I couldn’t care less. I have no sympathy for those who try to sit at the table of white supremacy when they themselves are a POC.

Homophobic men are usually homophobic due to the fear of gay men subjecting them in the same way the homophobic men subject women.
It’s layered irrationality of ignorance and fear.

If I were a congressman in one of those hearings where they posture, I’d repeatedly yell at this guy, “Look me in the eye, sir!”

I hate that the headlines I’m seeing on this don’t mention the time frame … putting a Pride flag on his desk a year ago before the election even occurred. Really drives home the vileness of this ridiculous pretextual firing.

Anyone who wants to leave the FBI now just has to place a pride flag on their desk. You don’t even have to let anyone know.

Substitute LGBTQ folks or undocumented immigrants with “Jewish people,” and the following paragraph seems too familiar.
FOUND VIA GOOGLE: The Nazis’ hatred of Jewish people was based on a combination of historical antisemitism, political opportunism, and pseudo-scientific racism that falsely blamed Jews for Germany’s problems. The Nazis amplified long-standing prejudices and used them to create a scapegoat for the German people’s humiliation and suffering after World War I.

Fuck these clowns running our government. If they aren’t specifically trying to sink the US they are a fucking joke. I feel bad for all of the professional feds who have to work for these punks. Imagine spending your entire life working up in the FBI and the cheese dick who looks like he got kicked in the face by a fucking horse becomes your boss.

The majority of white people who voted on November 5th, 2024: ‘We love this. In case you’ve forgotten, what we care about is the cruelty to LGBTQ and non-white people. Deal with it because we’re nine months in and there’s at least three plus more years of this.’
*Among those who voted, 60% of white men and 53% of white women supported a racist, fascist, sexist pedophile.*
