If the millionaires & billionaires fighting against Prop 50 were truly against gerrymandering, they’d support anti-gerrymandering fights in RED states. They don’t. They’re just against gerrymandering in BLUE states bc they don’t want Repubs to lose their advantage. #Prop50
loves2write.bsky.social (@loves2write.bsky.social) reply parent
Push the fact that gerrymandering is a NATIONAL issue, not simply a state issue because it determines the members of the House. That’s why California Prop 50 needs to pass: it’s leveling the playing field & it’s temporary. #Prop50

Biden is personally opposed to abortion but supported Roe. Why? Because he doesn’t think he should impose his PERSONAL beliefs on people who don’t share them. Newsom’s personal beliefs are his own. You don’t like them? He’s not asking you to, but he’s also NOT creating laws based on them.

Point to any legislation Newsom has signed that restricts the rights of trans people or the LGBTQ+ community. He expressed his PERSONAL opinion & like other Democratic politicians, he has a personal opinion that is PERSONAL. He doesn’t use it to legislate.

In case you haven’t noticed, science doesn’t seem to matter to many voters. And there haven’t been extensive studies about whether or not trans people enjoy specific advantages in sports, so until there are more substantive studies, what science there is can be disputed.

The thing is, the vast majority of Dem politicians support LGBTQ+ rights, & the vast majority of Republicans don’t. BUT, the vast majority of American voters are either not in favor of allowing trans athletes or they’re undecided. Dems can only make laws to respect LGBTQ+ rights if elected. 🤷🏻♀️

There are all sorts of criteria for athletes in school. In this case, if a school in a conference allows trans athletes & the other schools in the conference don’t, then the schools that don’t could refuse to play the school that does bc they think it has an “unfair advantage.”
