it's starting-- LGBTQ Victory Fund is telling their candidates to avoid talking about trans people (in sports, but I'm sure they'll expand it from there).

Thanks Sarah McBride for creating this permission structure!

Identity and my family's safety is a kitchen table issue in our home, thank you very much. What a disappointment McBride is.

Foe the politicians? No.

They dont care about *your* kitchen table issues.

I love gathering all of my family and sitting them down at the dinner table each night to have an important discussion about what college students are up to on their campuses

If they want to take "identity" out you go inclusive on the right to making your own healthcare decisions. It only and always only hurts dems to try to avoid/erase/ignore trans rights. And I'm sorry if it seems dismissive, but the solution is so easy - basic human rights for all.

for them, ideally, we’re not at the table at all.

I guess it depends on whose kitchen the table is in? Sorry :(

I’m sure they’ll really feel victorious when it’s them next, as was always the plan of these evil, evil people. They’re not particularly trying to hide it!

Everyone knows only heterosexual people with 2.5 kids have kitchen tables 🙄

The rest of us eating expired crackers straight from the box over the kitchen sink.

as a reminder, trans men make on average 70 cents on the dollar vs cishet white men and trans women make on average 60 cents on the dollar vs cishet white men. is that not a fuckin kitchen table issue

I wish the data on trans pay disparities was further broken down by race, though I can already guess how fucking even more bleak it is.

the purpose of this messaging is for dem media elites to not so subtly tell people which of their concerns are valid

It's wild. The same cycle keeps repeating. Republicans pick an issue to hammer on. Something that nobody knew or cared about before.

The Republicans then say "Be scared! Be terrified of this thing you didn't know about yesterday!"
And Democrats respond with a very courageous "Shh, nobody cares"😒
