eh, i think the trans rights has been hurting the general left's aims. we're on the verge of an eco-collapse, rise of fascism, and the birth of a dystopian neo-fuedal society. fixing those things takes precedent over some goth kid that insists everyone be nice to them.
Wow, it's trans rights is at fault for the Republicans running into the arms of fascism instead of helping people?
It has everything to do with republicans as they are the only ones that are making it an issue.
Trans people making everything about themselves? What the fuck are you talking about? I only ever hear about "trans issues" because of the right. Trans people just want the right to exist.
If you think the trans community trying to defend ourselves from constant attacks equates to "making everything about them", you lack so much empathy that I honestly don't even know where to start.
If your idea of leftism includes disregarding the ongoing genocide of oppressed minorities, I have to question what the hell do you think is "leftism"?
That all the Republicans fault for dragging us back to the stone age.
So you want to become a Nazis to prevent the neo-nazis from doing more harm? I'm all for armed defense but reeducation camps lead to throwing more and more "bad" people away. Alongside your disregard for LGBT people, you are already willing to throw them to the wolves so you can get your scraps.
