Kinda pissed that the first trans congresswoman is also a zionist lib. Letting this go unchallenged is only going to embolden the fash.

    I’m not here to fight about bathrooms

    Fuck off, being able to exist in public is a fight worth having. This framing as if bathrooms aren’t important pisses me off.

        She’s not willing to fight for herself, so what is supposed to make any of us believe that she’s going to fight for any trans people?

        If she’s going to claim to represent us, and then fail to fight for us on the most basic shit about the right to exist in public; she can fuck right off the tallest building she can find.

        Fuck this victim shit. She stepped into the ring, she’s wearing our colors, and she’s rolling over. Thats not a victim.

        Edit: this is surrendering on our behalf, not being a victim.

            I’m saying she stepped up in our name. This is the most obvious shit, she had to know this would happen if she isn’t dumber than a bag of scopolamine. She chose this fight.

            So she needs to fucking fight it, or we all look bad. It means shit heads like this are going to be this much bolder everywhere else.

            She could fight badly. She could lose. She could fuck up. I probably wouldnt hold that against her. Declining to fight is what is egregious here.

            This is going to be a problem for so many other people, so many more are going to have to fight or suffer this now; people who will not have any choice whether to fight it, because this piece of shit rolled over for fascist belly rubs. Because it made it look okay. Like to be a ‘good’ trans person is to not fight being erased from public life, making any objector de-facto compared negatively to it.

            I will not have sympathy for a fucking us congressghoul. Not one of them has been a victim since the fucking civil war.

        she is a comprador to the amerikkkan regime and a zionist, why should i show her an ounce of respect or solidarity? she is my enemy, the fact that she’s trans doesn’t change that

        I promise you literally everyone in this thread already would happily toss Mike Johnson and whatever other transphobic cronies in a pit and a live grenade to follow. We’re allowed to be pissed off at the lack of resistance and solidarity from supposed representatives of the community in question.
