Fuck off with that virtue signalling. The point above remains valid. Vote out the one that WANTS TO ERADICATE MARGINALISED PEOPLE then focus on improving the less-bad candidate.

It remains the less-bad outcome.

“Wanting to exist as a human being in public” is now virtue signaling, very nice.

If it’s super important for trans people to all vote for whatever candidate Dems put forward, and you also believe Newsom is the likely candidate, then you should call his office and tell him that the transphobia is alienating voters. Because it is.

I agree! I so agree. But, and here's the rub, I'll vote for him even if he doesn't change his position. Because he is not the existential threat posed by the GOP.

So you'll vote for him if he keeps the Republican talking points, got it. You don't care what they stand for, but the party they're with.

You refuse to acknowledge my underlying point, that although Newsom (Democrat party by extension) is a threat, Trump and the GOP will / actively ARE displacing minorities (including trans).

But go on, continue attacking the less-worse outcome. Hope that helps when ICE comes knocking.

The ICE Harris wanted to keep? Sure.

Just saw this on Lemmy. I didn't even need to scroll. Please, keep telling me that Democrat are the worst choice.
