    No not at all I support that fully, but I really don’t want another situation where we have “milquetoast whatever vs Nazi” and people are more focused on how the Democrat isn’t perfect enough to not try to stop the nazi

      Youre thinking from your own perspective. Is there something I can say that will help you understand that winning the vote means we have to steer towards popular opinion?

        Translation: Moving further right is the only option we have. Just stop being queer, an immigrant, or homeless and I’m sure you’ll be part enough of the majority to not be disposable politically. Some of you might need to be thrown to the wolves, but that is a sacrifice I’m willing to make.

          How will you chose to throw me, and not yourself at the same time, to the wolves?

              And Im challenging your assertion. First, liberalism is not right of MAGA. Second, even a government run by people like Newsom would be a safer place for trans people.

                Honestly, given how much the federal government will be destroyed by then, there will probably be more regular violence and more threat of civil war. We’re never going back to the stability or liberalism of the past, only an era of opportunists tearing the empire apart.

                But yes, we won’t be as in danger for our identity as trans people, only more in danger like everyone else will generally be.

                  Ill believe civil war is a thing when I see it. You cant get people on the left to agree that we should take power away from the GOP any way possible. These arent the type of people rushing out to die for each other.

                  And if youre speaking from a place of planned chaos: you severely underestimate the complacency of the american people.

                    Any non complacency will be redirected to serve power hungry separatists or unionists, just like your energy is being redirected to serve Newsom right now. Americans are too in love with serving shitty people to ever not pick another shitty person to support over actual reform. Any hope I had in popular resistance has been snuffed out by people like you. Thank you for confirming that we’re on our own.
