    Do you think Biden will put me in a cage or a mass grave with all my trans and LGBT friends?

        If his donors wanted that then they would back right wing candidates. There’s a lot of liberal support for LGBT people and if Biden is going to genocide them then he’s going to need a really good reason and he’s probably going to lose a lot of support and that could be the thing that pushes a third party to viability.

          Most of them are also backing rightwing candidates, to say nothing of the fact that Biden is rightwing

      Well, Obama (With Biden as an accessory) did put immigrants and their kids in cages and camps, so it's not like there's zero precedent.

        That’s happening under Trump too and the conditions are probably worst and more people have been targeted. Do you think more genocide is better than genocide?

          Look: I wasn't aiming to start an argument with you, I was simply telling you how things'll be if Biden wins. Overall it'll be a little better for trans people, but still nowhere close to "good".

      No, but he’ll do that in the Middle East and probably in Venezuela, and the way things are heating up, maybe China.

        That stuff will probably happen with either president. Those people have no control over our government while American LGBT comrades are at least on American soil and able to influence our politics in some way. Sacrificing us to save lives abroad which probably won’t be saved anyway is not going to save America from fascism.

        You may not be wrong but I like my chances with Biden more than Trump. Liberals at least have to not be overtly acting contrary to the constitution. Conservatives can flaunt constitutional violations with no electoral repercussions.
