It’s a meme that allows Maga country to believe that there is ongoing, massive backlash to products that acknowledge and celebrate marginalized communities.

During Hurricane Ian, the category four storm that destroyed parts of Florida last week, Lara Trump, daughter in law of Donald Trump and wife to Eric Trump, took her son into the storm.
Trump posted a video of her and her son outside during heavy rain. Her son is riding a toy tractor while she films. The child is seen shielding his eyes from the hale while asking his mother to bring him back inside.
She pushes him to ride out in the rain with words that in another context would seem encouraging. “No, you can do it. Let’s go,” she says when her son tells her he doesn’t want to play in the rain.
Instagram blew up immediately with harsh reactions.
“Abuse. Plain and simple,” @tonyposnanski wrote.
In a caption to the post, Trump calls the experience “character building,” also implying that being caught in the rain...

Elon Musk no longer wants Twitter, and right wing figures who saw the purchase as an opportunity to reshape the platform in their favor are devastated.
A statement filed to the Securities and Exchange commission by Musk’s attorneys declared that “Mr. Musk is terminating the Merger Agreement,” alleging that “Twitter is in material breach of multiple provisions of that Agreement, appears to have made false and misleading representations upon which Mr. Musk relied when entering into the Merger Agreement.”

When Jonathan Hillman was growing up in rural Wisconsin, he says he frequently felt “small.” He was a boy in a family of dirt track racers who played with Barbies, who would pull his turtleneck up over his head to make a pretend wig when he was playing with the kid down the street. Like many queer kids, he was often bullied, so dress-up and performance were a kind of refuge for him. “It made me feel bigger,” he recalls.
Fast-forward to 2018, when Hillman was brainstorming ideas for children’s books at his Mfa program.
