Leading Democrats have almost completely ignored Trump's efforts to wipe trans people off the face of the earth. www.discourseblog.com/p/democrats-...

Show love and to win vote trans - community. And to win vote trans community presidential election

The platform should just be "Are you their doctor? No? Stay the fuck out of it". And they should say it with conviction.

Works for women's Healthcare, works for trans rights, works for your politically disconnected Uncle who hasn't thought about either of those things.

Schumer not only voted for the ndaa in its current form, but he shut down another senator's attempts to remove the part that banned gender affirming care for servicemembers' kids. He's actively killing trans kids. He's no ally.

This reminds me of when police captains tried to march in George Floyd protests. No, you're part of the problem, guy.

So ANGRY at @beyer.house.gov ! He’s like “there’s no point in slowing down the fascism.”

See, there you go expecting elected Democrats to have principles and not just political expediency. Imagine the world we could have created since 2008 if Democrats actually intended to do even one thing they say they care about. Pick any of them.

We tried this in San Diego. Not only did SD Pride continue to partner with Zionists, but it also canceled a pinkwashing discussion panel the morning it was scheduled to take place.

Primary them all.

What are they doing at all?

A woman asked A Republican Senator about married woman won't be allowed to vote, his come back was, then they don't vote!

Reminds me of this pathetic email I got literally a few days ago, responding I assume to one of my various attempts at communicating with that office (I'm a constituent). Truly imagine writing this email and thinking you are doing anything of use.

re-sharing my advice for cis people who feel despair about what's happening to trans people but who don't know what they could/should do https://whats-helping-today.beehiiv.com/p/to-cis-people-who-feel-despair

"I invite cis people to stop worrying about supporting trans people wrong somehow. There is no wrong, at this point. Other than silence, inaction — those are wrong."

At this point, I just don’t opt in to receive replies.

Or let them come and then let them have it. Make them know that if they show their face in public we will tell them how displeased we are 🤬

yeah let’s double down on these purity tests that have brought us so much success

Pride is a protest this year.

How many of them, were willing to scapegoat trans people, when the GE ended up with Trump back in the WH?

They were so eager to throw trans folk into the wood chipper, to spare themselves....

bienvenutheperson.bsky.social•1 day ago

I can’t speak for anyone but I think we should speak up when it’s right always. Lots of pundits think we tried too hard forcing the LGBTQ issues and they’re assholes for saying it, but these old timers sound ridiculous to regular America when they talk about LGBTQ topics. Maybe exclude them anyhow

daveishere.bsky.social•1 day ago

the sad reality is that the dems made a political calculation to throw trans and immigrants under the bus and obv it's a disaster on every level- these people are useless cowards

groovyavr.bsky.social•1 day ago

Shhhhhh!!!!

uabyyruwi.bsky.social•1 day ago

Great idea! Maybe they'll reconsider when they can't even do their performative acts.

I got a bunch of texts to support @joshweil.bsky.social - went to check his issues page, no mention of trans rights that I can find. Want my $25? Try a little bit

rescuerevolution.bsky.social•1 day ago

If you knew the political makeup of District 6, you wouldn't even want him to address the issue right now. Do a little research. Meanwhile, his opponent is Randy Fine, who wrote "Don't Say Gay" and basically destroyed inclusion for anyone LGBTQIA in Florida. Cute that you seem to prefer him.

uabyyruwi.bsky.social•1 day ago

This entire thread is about Democrats who can't be bothered to talk about trans rights. Fuck off

rescuerevolution.bsky.social•1 day ago

Then focus on the ones not currently battling to get in office in Conservative areas, a less stupid endeavour rather than attacking one known by the local LGBTQIA community to really support trans rights.

Light criticism about your messaging in exchange for money is not attacking.

uabyyruwi.bsky.social•1 day ago

Maybe ActBlue could include which civil rights concessions they are making when they're texting people in other states for donations.

Pride Parades allow banks and cops and weapons companies to use them for advertising. Fat chance of politicians ever being banned.

Schumer has to go. He is a stain on the history of the Democratic party

matunos.bsky.social•1 day ago

or let them attend and be booed away

archimedes75.bsky.social•1 day ago

It's because democrats are nearly as far right as the republicans. The only people that they care to serve are the ultra rich.

And the ultra rich do not want equity, for anyone else, ever.

lovemypupper.bsky.social•1 day ago

Use them to protest people like Schumer .
