MODERATORS
We unfortunately live in a two-party system. If these alienated voters are being forced to choose between the transphobe, or someone who wants to systematically eradicate trans people, I hope those alienated voters wisen the fuck up real quick.
At that point, their noble protest vote (or abstinence from voting) does nothing but make the world a worse place. Learn to fight for progress, instead of kneecapping everyone else from being able to do so because your candidate doesn't toe the line with literally every single one of your values.
Which of your rights are you voting away with candidates that don’t “toe the line” with your right to exist as a human being?
Why are you so comfortable demanding other people give up their rights while doing none of that yourself?
Why is it more reasonable to you to demand trans people vote against their own rights than to do even the tiniest amount of work pressuring Newsom to stop the fucking transphobia?
Regarding giving up rights comment: who is most likely to change their stance if you were to personally talk to them directly:
Trump or Newsom?
Pressuring one to change their stance isn’t the same as vilifying them. Republican GOP pigs vilify. That’s their play. Let’s be better than that. At least to each other please.
Neither one. They don't listen to the public. They listen to the donor class.
