Log Cabin Republicans willfully shocked to discover what “anti-woke” means
By 
Even for professional suckers, being shocked by the contours of Ron DeSantis’s fascism is something else:
Gay and Trans Republicans expressed dismay after the DeSantis campaign’s rapid-response Twitter account, DeSantis War Room, recently released an attack ad that unabashedly promotes what it calls the “most extreme slate of anti-LGBTQ+ laws in history” and claims its policies “threaten trans existence.” The ad also goes after former President Trump, critiquing him for his purported support of Pride and the LGBTQ+ community – in spite of his anti-LGBTQ+ record. LGBTQ+ advocates have continually warned about the escalation of anti-trans attacks into broader anti-hostility, and LGBTQ+ Republican operatives are suddenly finding out the consequences of supporting such policies.
The ad itself has been described as one of the worst anti-LGBTQ+ attack ads ever, with one reporter calling it “the closest thing to what a Benito Mussolini TikTok ad would’ve looked like.”
You’d think that the huge package of discriminatory legislation might have been a minor hint, but when your upper-class tax cuts depend etc.
