They’re absolutely humans. Don’t put words in my mouth. You’re all saying that I need to support candidates who support trans people’s rights and I agree with you. But you’re willing to sacrifice ALL of the other causes you “support” if one cause isn’t included on day one. Work towards progress.

because a candidate that starts by sacrificing one group will only continue to sacrifice more, and we’re done endorsing people that don’t care if we live or die asshole

I am. You are the one that thinks minorities may be an "acceptable" sacrifice to keep *your* tide rising. And I am telling you, since you need *my* vote, not the other way around, that we don't let anyvody drown So stop equvicating, and pick a real candidate

So we agree. You’re not an ally to those causes since you willing to make them all suffer. This is the same as you saying I’m not an ally to trans people. Except you’re willing to hurt exponentially more people while I want to help them and continue to progress to a state where no one drowns.

No. I refuse to shoot anybody. The problem here is that you think of Niemöller's poem as a list of people you can throw to the tigers before they come to you. I have read my history, however, and know that the only repones to this question is, "you have to shoot us all bitch"

You on the other hand, say "Sure, Nazi, just the trans people? And you'll leave all my Jewish and Black friends alone? Sounds real fucking reasonable." But the dirty little secret is that when the Nazi's ask, you'll shoot them too. So what's it going to take for you not to be Nazi's bitch?

You see Niemöller’s poem as the only option. If trans people are the communists in this comparison, wouldn’t you want Socialists, Jews, and Unionists, to have rights so they can fight for the communists? Or would you prefer they all lose their rights leaving no one to fight for you?

I dont think you understand the poem. I dont think you actually understand this moment. When they want someone from our community, the *only* answer is *no* The very notion that we *need* "rights" in order to fight back shows how out of debth you are for this moment You need to shut up and learn
