Out of all the trans issues you care about trans sports? It's almost like you want people to hate us. Who am I kidding that's exactly why. Fucking right wing shills in the DNC. Out of every issue with trans people, Americas by majority are supportive except for mf trans sports, because of course it's extremely stupid, especially if you aren't going to let kids have some hrt when they want to transition. No coincidence there. Of course that's what they will pick to run on because the DNC is controlled by the same fucking hateful dipshits that control the rest of the state. The DNC will do everything in its power to make sure the Republicans win because they know their voters are stupid enough to help them implement a police state and mass surveillance and turn America into an autocracy. Fuck the DNC.
Don't forget in the last election you didn't hear a peep out of the fucking DNC only for their candidate to pull out right at the end to guarantee trump a win. That should tell you how Americans really feel. The only people who vote Republicans at this point are a few mentally retarded people and some boomers with dementia. They lie about everything.
Yeah, well, expressing concern about trans people being killed by Nazis might be a bit risky. Far easier to parrot inane policies developed by right-wing fanatics whose only goal in life is to hurt people.
This is why those from the soggy center should never be let into office. We need someone who's going to clean house, and put an end to fascism and the religious right in the US and, if possible, globally, before they round us up and kill us.
Trans sports isn't a good issue. It's the least popular of all trans issues and also is the only actual position where the Republicans have the moral high ground. Trans issues aren't good to run on anyways because only a bit over half of the country is in favor of trans rights outside of medical access and stuff. The bathroom stuff is more reasonable. You can have some fair laws around this, like people have to be on hormones for over a year or something before they can use the other bathroom. The trans sport things is unfortunate. There just isn't really a good trans friendly solution that isn't really unfair for cis students. The only way a trans person can compete fairly in women's sports is if they are on hormones for years.
