I just got off the phone with Mike Johnsons office."Bradley Whitford (@) "Hey @tim_cook. In '14 you said "I'm proud to be gay, and I consider being gay among the greatest gifts God has given me." I just watched a video of you kissing the ass of the felonious fascist whose Supreme Court is poised to put to put an end to gay marriage. You gonna speak up?"Majid M. Padellan (a.k.a. Brooklyn Dad Defiant) (@) "BREAKING: They want to ban gay marriage now. Is interracial marriage next? WE. FUCKING. TOLD. YOU."Dan Marcus (@) "I remember waking up the day same sex marriage was legal. I felt so much hope and optimism for the future. With each passing day, I feel so much despair - not just for this current generation, but for those who will grow up with fear and uncertainty."Derek Guy (@) "Obergefell v. Hodges made me believe in the whole 'arc of history bends towards justice.' In the 90s, I didn't think gay marriage would be legalized in my lifetime bc homophobia was so rampant. We would have never gotten here without the decision and now it may be overturned."Hemant Mehta (@) "A reminder of how seriously Kim Davis takes the 'sanctity of marriage': She married Husband 1, had twins with Husband 3, divorced Husband 1, married Husband 2, divorced Husband 2, married Husband 3, divorced husband 3, then remarried Husband 2."Barrett Pall"I did not go to an old friend's wedding this weekend bc she was marrying a Trump supporter. Did this hurt her, yes. Did it hurt me, yes. 48 hours later my marriage is on the chopping block. This is why EVERYTHING IS POLITICAL & somethings cant just be put to the side."Drebae (@) "If they overturn gay marriage, please know interracial marriages are next. Oh and they want to make 14 year olds considered legal adults."John Michael Di Spirito View on Threads"Weve been married for 4 of the last 10 years that Marriage Equality has been available to us. And have been together for 11 yrs. We are not why you cant afford groceries. We are not why your kids are unsafe at schools and churches. We are not the reason why the job market sucks. We are not why you cant afford a house. We are Americans just like the rest of you and we are going to be the litmus test in this country for how far this can all go if we all dont stand up and shut it down NOW."Ben Yahr (@) "To all the Trump voters who told their gay loved ones 'don't worry they're not going to go after gay marriage,' hope you rot in hell."Mike Nellis (@) "Banning gay marriage was always part of their plan, just like repealing Roe v. Wade. A lot of us tried to warm people about that..."Kai Cameron View on Threads"Vibes are rancid. Delete the country. Rights speedrun mode. Full dystopia chic. Cancel straight people. Democracy is rotting. Time to riot."
