As I watch Democrats fold on rights for marginalized groups, it kind of makes me want to scream.
If you are willing to give any group up, I don’t trust you and I don’t want to know you.

I'm not aware of any Democrats on the national stage that are doing this.
If you vote indep/ green you are helping republicians which are by far the most racist and against gay/trans rights.
We aren't anywhere near a large enough minority to make an electoral difference, so they think they can sacrifice us
i used to howl with my husky and it's quite cathartic
And now, turning on trans folks. I don't trust the dems either!
We are supposed to be the Big Tent Party, which means we unify & tolerate our differences for the greater good!
Just focus on the big issues like the R's, but better, & when we win, we care for the marginalized groups..!
The R's focused on issues voters were passionate about; We need to do the same w/better solutions.
In order to help everyone, marginalized or not, we must 1st win elections.
The DNC has repeatedly failed its base in the past 40 years. Centrists are complicit- Progressives aren’t radical because they line up with Eisenhower
Dem leaders-
Stop cowering and apologizing for our beliefs and go on the offense!!
Many of us vote for them as a harm-reduction strategy, but actually appealing to us would cost them donations from rich people.
We don't need to feed "the disinformation machine." We need to unite and fight. Missouri needs you.

Talking to you @hakeem-jeffries.bsky.social
What should the majority of Democrats do?
That was cited as proof of his position somehow
Literally all of mens/women’s sports exists based on the acknowledgement that the top males have an advantage
You can have a thought and even an opinion on this topic. This doesn't mean it needs to have federal laws enacted.
Less than 100 trans female athletes playing at the collegiate level. Let the leagues set their own rules.
Do you think that this lightning rod of an issue should be debated and legislated in the federal government?
Think of the benefits vs the harm, especially to women and intersex people, if we go this route.
Genetics is also why you don't see many short people playing in the NBA.
I’m not ignorant
Bc they don’t actually care about anything they claim. It’s all an excuse to do whatever bigoted thing they already wanted to do & they just made it about something. So if you cave on 1 excuse they’ll make up more!
Dems are speaking out!
Can we please take a break from bashing Democrats every time Republicans do something lousy?
But, we also need to act.

"Dems bring a white paper to a knife fight." -Me!
Sen Judiciary Dems include leadership. So that's good.
Mainly, I need to keep my spirits up to keep up the fight. Doubt I am alone w/this. Let's praise the good too.
