If you’re willing to sacrifice trans folks to “defeat trumpism” you are just being tricked into doing the bidding of the very people you claim to be fighting. You don’t fight something by serving it.
Polling shows that most people think trans folks being in spaces that align with their gender identity is more popular than not. Throwing trans folks under the bus here actually hurts democrats, as it goes against popular opinion. There’s no reason at all to cede ground on it
That's all nice. but I like winning so I can actually get the policies I want. That doesn't mean that I get everything I want in one go. It means understanding that compromise happens in politics.
It's called when you are fighting fascists at the ballot box you do what must be done to defeat them first. Once that is done then you can go back to making progress on the areas that regressed.
It’s called telling the people being actively targeted that they will have to deal with being targeted.
Have you ever been in the military? Don’t think that’s how tactics work?
Literally one of the key concepts is leave no man behind.
So you are like a coward who leaves his friend bleeding out
You think that military doesn't leave people behind? Wow! They, in fact, do.
It's called I am thinking about the strategic level, and that is how to defeat Trumpism. Why? Because Trumpism affects everyone, including trans people, negatively.
That's nice. So you were at the unit level where taking or not taking the hill is a big thing, but not at the strategic level that doesn't think in terms of hills.
And you are advocating for us to accept our fate and let it wash over us like a fucking wave, because DEMOCRATS ARE ADVOCATING FOR WHAT YOU CALL TRUMPISM FOR TRANS PEOPLE
It's called right now if you want to advocate for trans people the best thing, and frankly only thing, you can do right now is to defeat Trumpism first and foremost. If you don't do that then nothing else matters because everything is lost.
So you really don't care about stopping Trumpism. All you are about is you, you, and you. So it turns out the great trans advocate will sacrifice everyone to try and save themselves.
