They invented an "ethically justifiable Omelas" where instead of one child, it's trans women, and instead of utopia it's a society that's gradually getting worse for some reason even though they keep throwing trans women under the bus

The normalisation of transphobia is complete in the UK. Most cis people don't even see it in plain sight.

You know transitioning is hard and it can be lonely and it can suck sometimes and the fucking transphobes do their best to ruin everything and it hurts, it sometimes really fucking hurts and the only thing I would change about it is I wish I’d done it sooner

I don't believe that every trans person in America should immediately be made aware of every single evil bill introduced by some podunk state rep in a random red state they don't live in I don't think that's healthy. I have always needed to see a likelihood of advancement before I would write it up

if you say the phrase "transgender ideology" i don't think you should be allowed in polite society. maybe a box? a small box. so you can think about what you've said and done.

Last week, it was a few Dems agreeing with sports bans, calling trans girls "men," and agreeing to vote for national bans on gender affirming care. This week is Marcy Kaptur in Ohio highlighting that she voted "with Republicans to keep transgender ideology out of our schools."

no one is accusing Sarah McBride of "plotting trans genocide," and her being an "actual literal trans woman" is less relevant than her class and political position as a member of Congress who is literally using her transness the way you are to give permission to Democrats to attack trans rights.

Obviously transphobia is real and sucks. I’m not denying that, so put down your pitchforks. But I worry the apocalyptic panic we indulge in here scares off the eggs and kids and so forth. We want to make it easier, not harder to be trans.

Seems appropriate following Marcy Kaptur's ad exclaiming her pride in her anti-trans vote for HR 2616 that she has voted yea for pro-Trump and pro-fascist legislation 32.3% of the time this last session. She also ran unopposed in her primary.

September 14, 2026

Dear Colleague,

I write today, humbly, to ask for your support and your vote for me to be one of the next Co-Chairs of the Democratic Policy and Communications Committee. I am in awe of our caucus and want to contribute what I can to make sure we hit the ground running with a unified message in the 120th Congress.

Since before I was sworn in, I have been grounded by and grateful for the genuine support members of this caucus show for one another. I have been moved by the mentorship, the friendship, and the simple sense of community I have witnessed through the highs and lows of serving in this chamber. We have all been through a great deal this term, and what I have taken from it is that our collective strength is precisely what will win us the majority and allow us to pass an agenda that makes life more affordable for the people we represent.

As we defend and deliver for our constituents in an increasingly complex media environment, our diverse caucus will need an exceptional communications and messaging operation. Before I was elected to office, communications was my profession. I directed national media engagement for the Human Rights Campaign during a period when the equality movement was arguably at its most effective. At that time, we were winning fights by earning public support through effective persuasion. We didn't shame those who disagreed with us. We welcomed them into a conversation about where we agreed and found common ground to build upon.

Since joining this caucus, I have worked to facilitate conversations on issues where we haven't all agreed, and where members in very different districts needed substantively different messages to effectively communicate with their constituents. I never asked a colleague to use a message that didn't fit their district, while also standing firm in our shared principles and what we were trying to accomplish together. That experience reinforced something critical: a big-tent party can hold both…Three things I would focus on as a DPCC Co-Chair:

Tailored messaging guidance. I would expand the DPCC's tailored messaging program so that guidance reflects the district you represent. We can be entirely consistent in our values while giving members materially different tools. And, in doing so, we should provide you with the research and data that informs our recommendations.

Competing in every medium. I would build out real new media and podcast support for members who are strong in longer-form conversation. Not only staff training, but practical nuts and bolts: identifying shows and livestreams that reach the demographics you need, explaining how a podcast pitch differs from a pitch to a print reporter, and helping land individual bookings.

Making district work national. You host remarkable events at home, and home turf is where members are most authentic. Far more national reporters, podcasters, and creators would embed with you for a day, or for a single event, than most of us expect. I would like to make that a routine service rather than a lucky break.

I would be grateful for your support, and I'd welcome the chance to hear what you need from the DPCC, whether or not you're able to support me. Please reach out to me directly, or to my Chief of Staff, Roddy Flynn, at 302-897-7199.

With gratitude,

Sarah McBride Member of Congress

because transgender kids, who are already at high risk for suicide, do not need another public official telling them they are less than. this is not hard. we must protect the most vulnerable of all of us. talarico says he's a christian, well, that's a pretty important concept in christianity.

One of the more insidious phrasings I've seen with the Dems/trans rights discourse lately is the idea that trans people are being greedy and demanding a "maximalist" approach to trans rights. No, you cannot call the state of rights American trans people had as recently as 2023 "maximalist," sorry.
