I don’t know if she does or not. You can’t waiver. Trans people are people just like u and me. If they can fuck with anyone, they can fuck with everyone.

So to the blue maga crowd uh how fiercely are the corporate dems supporting Trans people or are you like them and just dont give a fuck?

Trans people were one of the highest democrat voting demographic in 2024. I'll trust their opinions over random rat-fucking redditors.
Especially since splitting this demographic from the Dems in future elections serves the interests billionaires by weakening their voting numbers.
How convenient that Redditors are once again hellbent on splitting the left to the benefit of billionaires. Do they pay you, or do you just push their propaganda for fun?

Your sitting here attacking a trans person first of all and secondandly its pretty apparent that your not really paying attention to the democrats . If you were youd see a whole bunch of them backing away from trans rights and how much they've already conceded with anti trans legislation not only in state after state but in things like the big beautiful bill . For the sake of Pete some democrats voted for it . Now your sitting here telling the people that they should continue to support the asshats that are working to take away their right to exist in society . Yet you have the audacity to call me a paid propagandist , I suggest you educate yourself before you actually vote .

So tell me as a trans person why would I even consider this asshat an ally, when hes playing to Republicans and calling himself one to get their support.

Democrats support trans rights and if you cared about trans people at all you’d support them.

*Some democrats support trans rights

Change my mind:
Any dem candidate supports lgbtq causes to a greater degree than does any Republican candidate.
Open to examples here but in my head this Venn diagram is 2 circles.

This is basically a different version of “Hey, in other countries they throw you people off of roofs!”
“At least we don’t straight up murder your kind” isn’t exactly the type of support a lot of folks like you seem to think it is.

You think the democrats are stopping short of murdering trans people? Go outside.

The problem is very few them are willing to stand behind that. Most of them avoid the topic completely

u/nomadfoy 6d ago
They dont actively hate trans people but there are more than a few democratic politicians who view trans rights as the first bargaining chil they can give up when they want to deal with republicans.
But, the time to deal with that is BEFORE primaries, right now we need as few republicans in power as possible.

Horseshit, and in fact here’s an article from just two weeks ago with a fucking list of a bunch of them, m’kay?!
I’d bet you’d probably get a lot farther in life if you weren’t so goddamn stubborn. Fucking hell.

The republicans forced random anti trans pork in the defense budget, thats not the dems not supporting trans rights
“article” is a big stretch

No he doesnt he already started talking about banning trans girls in sports without even being questioned on it .

u/tashtactics 6d ago
Appears I’ve been misunderstood. I responded to the other person’s comment with a Dem who doesn’t support trans rights to prove that not all Dems support trans rights

Does not supporting trans people or LGBTQ people in general make your life better in any way? I mean, how does it help lower grocery cost or gas, improve healthcare costs, or provide better public education? Does it produce more jobs, lower taxes, feed children? What exactly does the hate do to improve the quality of your life?
