She would have been better, but let’s not prop her up as a great option. She’s got her issues and we don’t need to be like “look she’s amazing and so good for us” she already lost we can acknowledge her many shortcomings alongside thanking her for showing up let’s ask her about actually supporting trans people?
as if the one in office right now is doing ANYTHING to help anyone? he’s even said he’s protected russia from bad things happening? like what? he’s deporting kids with no due process? do you know that ice just took an 18yo high school student on his way to volleyball practice and bound his hands and feet in chains. milford high school student in MA.
when it comes to this argument, you’re not taking any other things into account with other policies and how both candidates would be doing things. this cheeto has 10x a worse effect on everyone than the other candidate would have on everyone. both sides are allowing the genocide to continue.

Y’all are so brainwashed it’s actually embarrassing, glorifying and romanticizing the democrats like this is exactly why modern politics is the way it is. The democrats have sat by for years letting republicans erode lgbt rights while they pretend to be our saviors and y’all just continue to fail for it while attacking anyone that points it out or doesn’t want to participate in it
The democrats only serve to normalize fascism which is why they started pushing things republicans were asking for 5-10 years ago while they hide it behind progressive language. You call people that draw any kind of line on these policies “holier than thou” but fail to see you’re doing the exact same thing in a different font
Youre misunderstanding. Obviously Kamala is the better choice, but to pretend like she’s a real leader who cares about trans existence is lying. I dont care what Kamala has to say about trans people after she so willingly threw them under the bus. She’s not doing it because it’s the right thing to do, shes doing it to progress her career.
You’re absolutely right but our community is so fractured and far removed from our roots and our history that what we are now is a bunch of chronically online and fragile weirdos who hate each other and bristle at the slightest notion of violence or aggression. Even though that’s how our community mothers and queer ancestors fought for us in the first place.
also do not piss me off please. I’m saying this as someone who swallowed my pride and voted for kamala and told my friends to do so as well. this pink washing bullshit will not stand. not now. you’re not gonna “both sides are bad but one is worse” your way around holding a career politician accountable for not only failing our community but condoning and enabling a genocide to continue for months. none of us are free till all of us are free.
By shifting the discussion away from kamala being obviously complicit in trans suffering to say “well better than trump” does mean you’re avoiding holding her accountable. This isnt about “what about trump”, this is about criticizing the left for shifting to the right. It is disgusting that Kamala would ever come back to pretend to support the lives she threw away.
Oh so would we all but it doesn't change the fact that democrats are also evil and maintain a status quo. I'm not buying into this "Kamala was cool!!" Propaganda bullshit anymore. Our elected officials are not celebrities and should not be treated as celebrities. They're not our friends. This woman is the same fucking prosecutor that threw transwomen into men's facilities for Christ's sake.
