They did the same thing when portraying Mamdani:

Don't threaten me with a good time

And chose such a great photo of him as well, to go along with it, hahaha.

I've never seen a photo of this dude that didn't look great though, tbh. He's photogenic as fuck

Wait, Fox News framed them as bad things? Jfc I suppose it IS Fox News. Their viewers are stupid as fuck.

You know we're fucked when Make the world a little less worse for some people is enough to send 1/3 of this country into a shitfit.

That's how they do it. They convince everyone that LGBTQIA+ people and immigrants are the reason everything sucks, so we need to sacrifice everything in order to deal with them. Then when someone says "I want a bunch of good things that everyone wants, and also protection for LGBTQIA+ and abolishment of ICE!" they see those last 2 things and immediately throw out everything else that they would love to have, because that's the sacrifice they've been conditioned to make.
