The world wants me and my community dead and you all show it with your unwillingness to support candidates who actually care about the rights of the unhoused and other minorities. I just don't know how much longer I can keep fighting to stay alive like this in a world that supports my destruction

I’m sorry for the hellscape we all have allowed to devolve. That said, the alternative at this point in time is MAGAts…scum that hate everyone. Newsom may or may not end up coming around, he may not even get the nod, but today he is poking Trump in the eye. A bad day for MAGAts is a good day for us.

The thing is I don't feel an obligation to vote for someone who won't protect me just so all the cishet white people can keep their comfort. idk how people looked at criticism of Hillary and decided to start backing someone even worse on all the issues Hillary was criticized for

Democrats need to stop pretending human rights are a purity test and just do the extremely easy and simple thing of supporting all minorities. It's kind of their whole supposed purpose

100% A level playing ground for all people. Regardless of how they are built. If we just look at it that way, then everyone is included. And the level playing ground also means no extraordinary advantages or corporate welfare. At this stage, we all need to work on this. Together 🫶

Please stay safe and hang in there. We have no idea yet what the future will bring but there will be many people running for President and I know I will be working hard to campaign for the one who supports LGBTQ+ rights. We need Newsom right now to shake things up, but that doesn’t equal president.

don't get me wrong im not saying don't encourage him to attack Trump I'm saying don't vote for him if you care about human rights because He's not just transphobic.

As bad as he is on trans issues he's *worse* than trump on the issue of homelessness and being worse than trump on anything should be a disqualifying factor, especially when it comes to the most vulnerable people in society

Exactly, we will have to campaign hard but I do believe if we make it through this, we will have some good candidates running that we can put our voice behind! We just have to make it to that election.

When you find the perfect human political candidate let us know. In the meantime we're championing the one political opponent to Fascism who has the balls to be loud enough to do it. Perfect doesn't win wars on fascism.

Y'all would support Joshua Haldeman just because he was anti-hitler

I'm not asking for perfect and it's extremely dishonest and transphobic for you to pretend I am just by asking for y'all to not support people who want me to die

I'm in favor of not waiting until it's too late to support a candidate who's against fascism. Your own cliches is what's gotten the whole of the democratic party into this mess. If we keep waiting there won't be a country to save. Now you can continue talking to yourself in your own comments.

We have 3 whole years to build a better candidate than Newsom. Don't lie and pretend you're doing some heroic bullshit by supporting the murder of trans people. You are a transphobe plain and simple
