The only federal democrat running for POTUS to throw a bone to trans people was Hillary Clinton. Biden did nothing while he was in power, but many of the reforms Clinton did did in fact help trans people. As SoS, she verified that trans people could change gender on their passports and use them to get jobs. This was huge because it bypassed many terrible state guidelines that made it impossible for trans people to get a job without outing themselves. It has likely saved some people's lives.
Compare this to Biden's track record. He supported DOMA. He increased police presence, which naturally impacts trans people poorly. I've had a cop reach for his gun on me once, he was surprised when he checked my ID and realized I was trans / lying about my identity. I was just eating food in a fucking park minding my own business.
I voted for Hillary because she did something tangible for the trans community. Biden is a nod to the right-wing Southern Democrat part of the party, whereas Hillary at least tried to make a show on domestic policy. Both obviously suck ass on foreign politics, and that combined with domestic policy is why I'm voting Green.
yeah. kscm tries with that but the right wing faction is in charge of the party right now and it sucks. there are a few individuals in office that actually have read socialist literature and know that theyre talking about. my rep specifically is very pro-lgbt, wrote the damn bills, has read shit, and always has his bills watered down by dicks in the legislature. the city council is solidly red and dual power is being built but i think our city is the outlier there...
kscm has their own aoc who sounds like a complete moron when talking about socialism in any real sense and she is unfortunately quite popular among the right portion.
