The economy, AI datacenters, the war in Iran… voters were more likely to say all these issues were more important than trans issues.
Ok, but, attacks on trans people are still being encouraged by shitpigs like Musk and Joanne Rowling. Apathy is better than hate, but only in the most dismal sense.
There needs to be more actual pushback against the instigation.
That doesn’t give people running for office permission to turn their back on trans people. You don’t have to make your campaigns focal point trans people while still continuing to support them.
I think those issues affect more people…
Trans issues affect only trans people who suffer from this right wing manufactured culture wars destroying their rights and lives.
Trans people have families. Trans issue effect them too. Plus some people in the world are just generally against hatred and cruelty. As you say it is all manufactured and yet another demonstration what disgusting people right wing supporters are.
Duhhh
:(
This is :)
It means they care less about sports and bathroom bans than real issues.
My takeaway as well. I was eating with my aunt when she mentioned “a girl just walked out of the men’s room” my knee jerk reaction was “so?”.
To be perfectly clear, I do care about the legislation needlessly being passed to criminalize this shit. But here’s a small glimmer of hope. I live in the middle of the middle of nowhere and we have a food truck area with only one bathroom. It has a sign with the classic men and women logos, and half half one, and an alien that reads"whatever just wash your hands". I think that about sums up where everyone should be at with this idpol bullshit.
