Things have heated up over these last few weeks, and these topics beg for discussion! The Gays get together and chat about Operation Blockout, the movement among social media users to block celebrities who are not using their platforms to speak about important issues. We also talk about the heated exchange between Jasmine Crockett and Marjorie Taylor Greene, bringing up discussions of racism and sexism that is ever present in our politics. Hop into the discussion and let us know what you think in the comments!
