Democrats need to move to the right on many cultural issues (but not abortion). It’s not just a matter of abandoning off-putting identity politics language.

Ppl can love and support trans ppl and still feel like the trans mvmt's recent demands have been unwise. For ex:
making *federal education funding* contingent on schools permitting trans athletes in sports, and
*tax payer funding* of trans surgeries for prisoners and detained illegal migrants.
I do think we need to focus more on improving how cis people view us, improving understanding and acceptance of us. Increase that and the rest will follow, like it did with marriage equality.
But a blanket statement that we need to move to the right on cultural issues deserves pushback.
