Hey Democratic candidate, are you gonna say something when they go this low? The GOP: They think you hate transgender Americans as much as they do. Leave it to one of the biggest liars from either version of the Trump administration to go over the top. 🧵

TRANSCRIPT OF CARTOON

Panel 1

The year is 2024. A WOMAN and a MAN sit at a table in a coffee shop, looking at their phones.

WOMAN: The Supreme Court says no official act by the president can be a crime! Can we call it fascism yet?

MAN: Of course not. Don’t be hysterical.

Panel 2

The year is 2025. The WOMAN and MAN stand outside in snowy weather; the woman is pointing to something on her phone.

WOMAN: ICE invaded Minneapolis! Masked government agents are kidnapping people! Can we call it fascism now?

MAN: No! It’s bad, but let’s not exaggerate.

Panel 3

The year is 2026. The WOMAN and MAN sit on a park bench. She reads from her phone.

WOMAN: The White House says it’ll eradicate “Antifa militants” and ignore civil liberties. Can we call it fascism yet?

MAN: Enough with the doomerism!

Panel 4

The year is 2030. Armed, armored government troops stand nearby. The WOMAN begins to speak, but the frightened MAN stops her.

WOMAN: Can we—

MAN: Shhh! Do you want to get us arrested?

I’m looking forward to the day when people are just as comfortable saying ‘transgender girls’ or ‘transgender women’ as they are saying ‘trans athletes.’ Being specific reminds people we’re talking about actual people.

I read Ben Appel's article in the Atlantic. It was the "Cliff's Notes" version of his book. The man is a pick me. He wishes he could be a part of the conservative Christian community that despises him. He dreams of transphobia being his ticket to that acceptance.
