• When this bitch lose the first voting block theyll throw under the bus is transfolk.

    I used to get so angry that minorities would vote against their interest in dems, but then I started to work towards becoming a better ally and realized how infuriating it must be for these privileged fucking centrists constantly vote against minority group interests and then beg minorities to show up when Trump started negatively impacting everyone’s way of life. When will the lesson be learned that we all do better when we all support one another?

    • I am a little frustrated, because I’ve been saying for like 3 years. If they didn’t stop at genocide than they’ll be nothing they won’t compromise on. Back in 2023 I was arguing with other trans people saying that the liberals weren’t on their side and they would throw them under the bus the moment it became politically acceptable to do so. Being dependent on a liberal party is more like being held hostage instead of gaining actual power.

      Constantly chastising people that they have to support liberal politics anyway, even if they’re doing imperialism (which isn’t at all new), just normalizes that those horrible things will always happen and cannot be changed, they’re just politically acceptable. Like it actually makes me feel like I’m going insane that genocide has become a normal, acceptable position, that we’ve realized after Palestine that most of the entire establishment are a bunch of Holden Bloodfeasts and things just keep going. Like, no, we’re frogs in a pot of water being boiled. Imperialism isn’t normal or okay.

        the liberals weren’t on their side and they would throw them under the bus the moment it became politically acceptable to do so

        So you decided to ally with Trump instead?

        US elections are a zero sum game with two sides and only two sides

        That means all anti-dem propaganda in the election is pro-rep propaganda

        If you’re saying to support socialists like Abdul in the primaries, I agree with you. But you’re not saying that. You’re saying not to trust Dems to be any better than Reps. That’s Rep propaganda. The rules of the game say you’re accidentally helping Trump.

        There will never be a third party, the maths on FPTP don’t support it. And you’re not campaigning for voter reply reform. You’re campaigning for people to abstain and let Trump have two more years of supermajority.

        You’ve already had a chance to educate yourself on the maths of FPTP. Whether your bad faith is moral or intellectual doesn’t matter, you’re a fascist collaborator and you’re attacking our rights as trans people. I have family in America and I don’t want them to die, so be quiet.

        • This is liberal yaKKKubian tricknology make people believe that advocating for dual power is a bad thing. I’m not impressed that you’re quite literally trying to emotionally manipulate people into thinking that if you don’t support the Dems they’re murderers or some shit. That only makes sense if you collapse of all reality into two outcomes “democrats win” and “republicans win.” That’s like absolutely defeatist, believing the only options that exist are government approved ones. that kind of attitude will let horrors go on forever without ever being challenged, I would genuinely rather die than just lie down and accept that. I support worker power so that both parties can’t oppress us and we can stop them from terrorizing the rest of the world.

          Shut up about your votes, I know you’re being manipulative. You say that they’re the lesser evil, but I guarantee you actually like liberals and just want people to stop talking about how they also kill people.

          I AM trans, and no government has never actually supported me, I seriously doubt the effectiveness of the legal system in helping us, I got my medication from mutual aid, and other trans people are how I survive, the liberal party where I live has done none of this, the government’s medical care is basically our enemy, I’ve been underdosed for years by my endocrinologist. You shut the fuck up about trans people. I disapprove of using our name to support genocidal liberals.

          You are the fascist collaborator. Fuck the democrats, and fuck AmeriKKKa. I have friends in Iran and Lebanon and I don’t want them to die. I’ve never seen Americans get shredded to pieces by bombs and displaced by the millions, all of you fucking Westerners will be fine by comparison even if the Republicans win again, you’ll do fine. Maybe you people deserve to see just a fraction of what that’s like after supporting it.

            Mutual aid is great! But we’re talking about an election in two days. If you write the name of the mutual aid group on your ballot, you’ve abstained.

            People with the vision and strategy to do the right thing at the right time do mutual aid. People like us distribute hormones. People like you just complain on the internet. I’m glad that we strategists got you those hormones, but it doesn’t make you a warrior. It just makes you alive.

            So if you’re not going to attend a protest or paint a crosswalk or run in a primary or get an over prescription, please be quiet and let the strategists work. We don’t need you making our work harder. It’s not gonna be as easy to distribute hormones if Trump declares martial law, and that’s what you’ve been helping.

            • The strategists decided that the best course of action is to tell anti-genocide protesters to stfu about genocide and vote blue no matter who. As well as yelling at genocidee to stfu and get genocided quietly.

              Brilliant strategy. Did you guys try “Orange Man Bad” or telling voters “If you have a problem figuring out whether you’re for me or Trump, then you ain’t black.” Or not yet?

                You’re not an anti-genocide protester, you’re a lying whinger. In order to be a protester, you have to actually get out of your bed and go to a protest. This isn’t a protest, it’s a whinge. And it may well be a successful whinge in its goal of getting people to stay home so Trump can run for a third term and you can have that trans genocide you’re desperate for.

                So of course I’m getting to tell you to STFU, you genocide supporter. Every minute you’re arguing with Me in the bowels of this comment section is a minute you’re not talking to potential voters. You’re never going to stop trying to kill trans people, but at least you can be trying to talk Me into killing My family instead of someone who might listen to your lies.

                • Right. We’re all supposed to ignore the actual genocide carried out under the supervision and support of the Democrats and pretend anyone not willing to blindly support the genocide enabling democratic party is “desperate for trans genocide” lol.

                  Do you know if Democrats regret stealing the presidency from Bernie Sanders?

                    I’m an anti-genocide protester. I’ve attended a dozen anti-Israel protests in My city. I’ve helped plan these protests at the org meetings. You’re not. You’re a poser, trying to claim that whinging on the internet is a form of protest. Stolen fucking valour.

                    Anti-genocide protesters like Myself are concerned about Rs winning the US election because it will make our jobs harder. People aren’t coming to the protests anymore because they’re more concerned about Trump.

                    In two days, we’ll find out how badly you, personally, fucked the anti-genocide protests and how badly you, personally, fucked Gazans.

        • These are midterms. Every election is local. Every district has different candidates. Unless you have points about a specific race, you’re not discussing the election, just partisan vibes. FPTP is applied to each individual race, not the aggregate that make up legislatures.

          A transphobe is not on our side regardless of their listed party preference. In my experience, bigots never pick party over prejudice. I live in america and care about my own safety. FPTP is an insidius system that forces us to pick the least bad option.

          I don’t think its a good thing to be accusing other politically engaged trans people of being fascists for making the best choice they are able given the specifics of of their ballot just because it goes against your broad strokes view that ignores them.

          Have some sympathy for your siblings these are bad times for us.

      • There’s going to be a lot of people that don’t vote for various reasons, and while I want them all to vote, I understand that the opposition isn’t doing enough to make encourage people to vote.

          I believe in free will. People are responsible for their own actions. Joe Biden is a shithead, but he doesn’t have a mind control beam to force people to stay home.

          That’s why I believe trans people will vote in greater proportion than cis people.

      Ever stop to think that maybe she’s not a Democrat but running as one? Do you seriously think MAGA and the republicans are above planting their own amongst us??

      Divisionism is what wins them elections. And divisionism is what is preached here every fucking day. That’s what I’m fucking tired of.

      • If you think this bitch is a republican plant based on her transphobia then whewwwww buddy are you gonna be shocked when you discover how many top ranking dems are actually Republicans.

        Calling out bigotry is not divisionism. The big tent party has enough room for everyone that wants to join, the only problem is there are too many empty chairs reserved for moderate Republicans that don’t like trump, as a result, there’s no seats for trans folk.
