the one Trump ran thousands of times during football games in October and November, yes. That's what won him the popular vote, which is what gives his presidency democratic legitimacy. Tens of thousands of deportations later, here we are.

So wait, you’re saying it’s trans people’s fault that Trump ran a grotesquely bigoted ad? Do you blame black welfare recipients in the 80’s for Reagan’s invocation of “young bucks” using welfare to buy “T-bone steaks”?

no I'm saying it's trans activists' fault for pushing Kamala to say something that made it very easy for Trump to dunk on her

Trump made a zillion racist appeals to voters’ anti-immigrant sentiments but I don’t see you blaming immigrants for demanding the right to due process. Why not? What’s different? Can’t quite put my finger on it

Again, you don’t see their pain as real, so of course it looks like they’re mutilating themselves rather than treating a real condition that if left untreated can result in death

The pain I see as real is what we’re all suffering under Trump. Chase Strangio got us here with his absurd demands, so fuck him.

Bro, surgical care for minors experiencing gender dysphoria is administered by professionals, and is the business of the kid and the kid’s guardians and those professionals, not your sorry ass. But you can’t see that because again, you don’t see their concerns as legitimate or real.
