We’re 3 years out from the next election. Why the FUCK are all the Resistor libs already insisting we lie back and take an anti-trans candidate when they could be using that energy over the next 2 years to pressure democratic leaders to do fucking better?

I know why. It’s because they’re scared, and it’s a hell of a lot easier to berate a persecuted minority than it is to push back against a powerful system. It lets them maintain a feeling of self-righteousness and a sense of control they wouldn’t have if they aimed their ire up instead of down.

“We can’t control who the party nominates or whether bigots will vote blue, but maybe we can bully a minority within our party to vote against their interests because the alternative would be worse.” Defeatist-ass attitude. Stop fighting us. Fight for us and with us or get out of the way.
