    They really are the same though and no this isn’t some demoralization post. People always get pissed on here because they think it’s propaganda or something. There is no meaningful difference between Nancy Pelosi and Mitch McConnell outside of the performatives. It’s a joke.

      Trans people: am I a joke to you?

      Seriously. Harris would have been a lot better for me personally. My life is not a performance.

        Every trans person I know hated Harris throwing them under the bus to appease Republican hillbillies who would never vote for Harris.

        And they also hated Harris’s treatment of trans inmates, forcing them to be with their sex, not their gender. Which got them killed.

        But sure, I guess her record for years and the months leading up to the election don’t matter. Maybe she would have protected them in office.

        Oh wait no she said she’d follow state laws. The ones that enable enmass dysphoria and social murder.

          Are you really going to lecture me about how I was just as unsafe under Biden?

          Harris swung to the left as a senator and was vice president to the most progressive administration in history.

          I live in a red state and a year ago I had the consolation that at least the white house had my back.

            It has your back by… Not protecting you or me or your friends. Or not pushing Congress to keep Title IX in place and expanding LGBTQ rights.

            Trump is worse but let’s not pretend that Harris loves us.

        As a nonbinary person myself, you’d think trans people wouldn’t throw the entire global south under the bus to keep themselves (and by proxy, this system) safe and secure, but rather stand against the system that causes all this death. It’s no surprise that reaping the benefits of exported fascism will eventually bring that fascism home.

          Voting for trump or not voting isn’t taking a stand, it’s watching the flames rise and refusing to fight the flames.
