Reposted by PhilipAlejandra Caraballo @esqueer.net · 14/09/2026So when a Dem says they agree with any of this, they are taking a position that is against what trans people ALREADY HAD just 5 years ago. That's why trans people won't accept it. It's not about progress, it's about preventing a managed decline in civil rights agreed to by Democrats. 121589307

Philip @disputin.bsky.social · 13/09/2026I can’t blame anyone who decides to withhold their vote from Democrats due to anti-trans positions. When a Democrat like James Talarico abruptly backpedals and renounces their support for civil rights, it makes them hard to trust going forward. Democrats who do this SHOULD fear losing over it. 100
