murph @murphadaisy.bsky.social · 19/09/2026interesting how so many people's allyship is contingent upon trans people being nice quiet victims. whole lotta folks turning real nasty because a couple trans women said, hey maybe people who call us men and degrade us and throw under the bus don't deserve our vote specifically. 110
Reposted by murphPeter @notalawyer.bsky.social · 16/09/2026i see a lot of debate around this issue that takes it for granted that supporting trans rights (especially in the sports context) will hurt you electorally. it’s worth highlighting that that’s just not what the data shows. 81099183
