So many libs keep telling me if I don’t vote for Biden that Trump will pass all these anti-trans laws that Biden and the Democrats would of course have stopped. I tell them my trans comrades on Hexbear all say I shouldn’t vote for Biden but these libs just keep asking for the proper documentation.

    If someone is willing to sacrifice Palestinians to win an election, they will just as soon sacrifice trans people or anyone else the moment it becomes convenient. If today it's "But Trump would genocide even more Palestinians, so you have to vote for the guy genociding them," then tomorrow they could just as easily say the same about trans people, or any other group.

    Solidarity across race, gender, nationality, etc is the only real long term strategy for survival for trans people. I'd rather die maintaining that solidarity than survive slightly longer selling comrades down the river and knowing I'm next.

    I don't have a stamp but if you lay the document on the ground I'll approve it

      You can see this right now in both words and actions from Biden and the Dems w/r/t migrants and the border. They were still just as evil, but a decade ago democrats would not have talked about migrants the way Biden is now.

      White Americans are getting even more racist and anti-migrant than they were before. And instead of taking a bold stand for what’s right, Democrats are trying to equal and even exceed the racism of the Republicans because they think to do otherwise will cost them votes. Should LGBTQ rights become less popular among certain demographics, why should we believe the Democrats will act any different than they are now with the border?

        and they literally bragged about deporting more people than trump.

        doomjak border fascism is bipartisan, how long before somebody does crimes or one of those trans women in sports panics gets traction and "polite" gender fascism becomes bipartisan like in ukkk ?

        I give it less than five years before we hear liberals wheeling out hard-r's when the minorities they politically tokenize start publicly balking under the anglo's reins.
