Newsom has already quietly blocked and shut down pro-trans legislation. He is anti-homeless, anti-immigrant, anti-trans. If we wins, those things will not change - it will simply help to establish a political consensus on BOTH sides that trans rights should be rolled back. Look at Labour in the UK.

If you care about your trans kid, you need to understand that right now the struggle isn't between pro-trans Democrats and anti-trans Republicans - it's between a minority of pro-trans Democrats and a rising majority of anti-trans Democrats. If the Democrats pivot on this, trans rights are doomed.

It's 2025. He vetoed two bills regarding trans health and custody matters here in California on this matter backed by a majority of the California State Legislature.

Then don't boost newsom; call him on his shit and make it a redline for yourself b/c it's not "only some of us should be safe" it's "we all should be safe" and picking who gets thrown out now is self-defeating and cowardly. Be strong.

So many of us fell for this in the UK. And now we’re fucked. No votes for transphobia. You want my vote, don’t be transphobic. Yelling at me, and others, will not change this. Give us someone not transonic to vote for. They do actually exist.

Transonic would make a great name for a queer club night.

Helping a transphobe get elected does not meet your standard.

So instead you'll help a greasy conservative wrapped in blue win. Brilliant plan dipshit

But, you seem to be suggesting that, because candidate A is better than candidate B in all regards apart from a willingness to persecute a particular minority, members of that minority who loudly protest 'Hell NO' are somehow wrong? I'm not American, but wouldn't vote for Newsom if I were.

What frustrates us is your framework that just because someone has a D next to their name means they're somehow magically incapable of ALSO being an awful person even if they hold the exact same opinion about marginalized people as NAZIS

Chasing the GOP to the right, as the Dems have been doing for decades, is a surefire way to get more GOP elected. Just look at what hugging and kissing on Dick Cheney got Kamala Harris last year.

And yet dems are literally half the problem. Half the police spending, half the corporatocracy, half the genocide, half the anti-immigration, etc. Thats not "lesser," it's just evil.
