Pod Save America brought on Bill Maher to spew easily disproven anti-trans talking points.
They keep saying they’re not anti-trans and trying to walk back statements they make.
I have offered to go on their show to talk.
I’m offering again now.
Talk to a freaking trans person.

New PSA this Sunday, Bill Maher and Lovett mix it up, worth a listen

The right are afraid of us. They don't want people seeing our worth and humanity.
(I like Eddie for the most part, but sometimes she goes full English boomer...)
Doesn't surprise me at all.
we lost!? QUICK blame the closest minority!
i hate these fucking cowards
Why pick Bill Maher? He's a hateful SOB that I have had the misfortune of working with. He's real prick, hates himself, hates the world.
I guarantee you that almost every anti-trans person has never knowingly spoken to one or had any kind of communication with one.
boomer who wishes to still be relevant, but deep down knows he’s not, but because he needs to be adored, will go to no ends to keep himself in the conversation. I used to respect him. I do no longer.
I stopped listening after the Luigi thing. They lectured their audience about needing small incremental reforms to healthcare rather than transformative change, and never disclosed Favero sits on the board of a private insurance group
Should be a no-brainer to have Erin on (especially after the Maher interview), probably one of the biggest names in trans journalism.
pod save america invites david duke to talk about black people!
pod save america invites joseph goebells to talk about disabled people!
pod save america invites george bush to talk about muslim rights!
Speak to the researchers, the organizational leaders, the activists.
We are all here.
I don't legislate a fucking law.
My ick = Reality. No data needed.
So basically they're just prejudiced against us from the start and don't want to risk us popping their little bigot bubble.
There are tons of us out here.
It couldn’t……
Some ppl just love sucking up to the powerful, even when the powerful are absolutely evil.
About 5 years ago.
His only worthwhile work was his religious documentary, he's been on the decline since.
It shouldn’t be this hard for the Pod Save America bros to practice “nothing about us, without us”
I'd like to hear Erin's side of things. This whole issue, singling out a tiny minority & not asking the Republicans to bugger off for making much ado about nothing.
I mean, why are Trans folk such a threat? It's not a contagion or mind control.
Absolute trash people
It will not pull y/our cause or any meaningful movement into the mainstream - that time is past us.
They’ve repeatedly chosen to platform intolerance to sustain listenership. That’s a conservative tack.
I do hope you go on, but please what you've posted is not 100% accurate
They need someone who can actually talk about this stuff knowledgeably.
Bill is obviously pretty ignorant, transphobic and lacking any form of self awareness.
Jon defended trans kids but Bill was threatening to leave so he had to be a little careful. He's a pretty decent ally
I didn't really know Bill was such a mess, until I watched the pod video
leaving is not a good look for anyone. I can understand that Jon didn't want the drama, and then give Maher ammo for his show
Let him look pathetic by leaving?
You're not going to change his mind. That's not the point. If you make that the point, then all he has to do is to not change his mind to "win".
You and a Republican aren't going to shake hands at the end of the day.
This is allowing your opposing witness custody of the physical evidence. The worst possible thing you can do.
I’m saying their listeners deserve a real defense. From someone knowledgeable. Preferably a trans person.
“We need a new Rogan for the Left!”
1) liberals aren’t leftists
2) this is how Rogan got started when he began booking fewer comics on his show
