Bluemaggots say things that help build the argument for my extermination because they’re worthless fucking opportunist cowards that don’t stand for anything. I’m sure, in their heart-of-hearts, they don’t even care about trans issues one way or the other.
However, that won’t stop them from “reaching across the isle” to vote for it in a big bipartisan compromise to show how reasonable and moderate they are; they’ll trade away my rights for idk canceling up to $20,000 in debt for Pell Grant recipients who open a business in a disadvantaged community and operate it for at least three years. Either we nominate a progressive or I die.
Every single Democrat that supports any form of gender segregation supports sending me to men’s prison.
It’s September 29. AFAIK most, if not all, of the primaries are over now. Either you got your ideal candidate or you didn’t, but either way, there’s only one way to keep the guaranteed-to-be-trans-genocidal Republican out of office at this point.
Also I notice you used “ideal” as if not wanting to be r*ped and murdered in men’s prison is idealistic. That’s the bare fucking minimum. If you nominate a candidate that supports the ideology for my genocide, I’m not sticking around to see how it turns out.
IDGAF about your fig-leaf; this thread is about 2026. That one sentence may have mentioned 2028, but don’t try to pretend you weren’t speaking more generally in the rest of your comments.

Fuck off with putting words in my mouth. I used “ideal” as in “better than the alternative” – WHICH IT IS! – and you know it. You are not fucking entitled to attack me for your own hyperbolic interpretation of some imagined different word that I didn’t say!

Do you realize that, by being incredibly accusatory and hostile to people who are trying to be your allies, you’re only making the worst outcome for yourself more likely? Don’t blame this shit on me!
Here’s the real bottom line: even if your 2026 Democratic candidate isn’t pro-trans, some candidates in other jurisdictions are. For there to be any hope of protecting trans people those other pro-trans Democrats need to be able to form a coalition with the rest of the party powerful to stand up against the Republicans. By refusing to vote and denying them that coalition, you are actively harming other trans people. Where’s your motherfucking solidarity, qomrade?!
Yeah, but when someone is trying to pressure dems into changing, people like you appear and cry that by pressuring them to change they’re basically supporting republicans
All the anti-D sentiment I see on Lemmy is from lemmy.ml people saying that Ds are just as bad as Rs (therefore don’t bother voting).
Which of course convinces people who would vote against Rs to stay home and convinces Ds not to bother appealing to that kind of person because they’ll probably not vote anyway.
I’m glad to hear it, but I clearly wasn’t talking about people like you. That view isn’t shared amongst the legions of people pictured in the OP who screech that voting for a Democrat under any circumstance is the exact same as voting for a Republican.

that’s cause it’s a caricature constructed for the purpose of engagement baiting
it’s literally a caricature though, just because you feel like it applies to everyone you talk to based on instance tribalism doesn’t make it less of a caricature
I strongly suspect you’re intentionally being obtuse to propagandize, as befitting of your home instance and likely political beliefs.
you are projecting your own motivations, i’m just a girl in the world

Caricature implies exaggeration; as I said, there are plenty of people like this, and 90% of the time they’re @lemmy.ml, like you. I didn’t decide to dislike people from other instances. I keep running into tankies from there saying the same propaganda, and pointed it out here today because it doesn’t surprise me at all that you pretend none of them are like that - you’re simply biased.

In true tankie fashion, “I couldn’t possibly be arguing in bad faith, therefore if you point out that I am, it must be that you are arguing in bad faith.”
Well, Republican voters actually vote. When you have this level of purity testing going on, why even bother with the left? You could be as progressive as possible, and then a picture of you reading Harry Potter 20 years ago means all the progressives stay home.
Democrats say things that flirt with transphobia because they are trying to win over Republican voters. (Dumb idea but that’s their strategy)
Republicans say they want trans genocide because they want trans genocide.
They aren’t the same, and at least one of them can be pressured into changing.

Well, I was trying to give you a hope for an out but I guess that’s a no go.
I’d rather you didn’t kill yourself.
I already have hope for an out; we nominate a progressive.
I fucking hope so

I said 2028 in my original comment, didn’t I?

i sincerely hope that you never interact with another trans person again. we all deserve better than this.
Gender doesn’t excuse being disingenuous. What would you have me do, treat her differently because she’s trans? What are you, sexist?
In fairness she did mention 2028 at the start of this
weird, i just had a bunch of comrades get arrested for attempting to protest for a democrat to not comply with trump on trans kids.
Yeah, but when someone is trying to pressure dems into changing, people like you appear and cry that by pressuring them to change they’re basically supporting republicans
What kind of pressure?

Which of course convinces people who would vote against Rs to stay home and convinces Ds not to bother appealing to that kind of person because they’ll probably not vote anyway.
i vote in primaries and municipal/midterm years but whatever you say, officer
democrats are more likely to call the cops on me than appeal to me in any way.

Bingo.
Absolutely not. I run into people like this on Lemmy all the time - usually from lemmy.ml like yourself.

I mean I still go with the left because I agree with it and think it’s the right thing to do, but man the purity testing can be a drag
