Much more people wouldve been negatively effected if it didn’t pass. Yes, we’re dealing with repubs, fascist racist white christian nationalists. They have an incredible amount of power and in order to do the least harm comrpormises have to be made. It’s reality. It’s tragedy. But know your enemy

I’m giving you an example of practical politics. Don’t make enemies of your friends. Whether that’s the Dems or someone using “they” so they don’t misgender someone.

If you’d be around in 57, you’d be so mad about the watered down 57 civil rights bill you’d tell people not to vote for Dems. So no jfk, no lbj and then you’d have no voting rights and civil rights act of 64/65. It’s just cutting off your nose to spite your face.

this is exactly what litmus test leftists do to Dems in general. Look for imperfections or compromises, or mistakes, say those define rge party, call the party transphobic/biggoted, then equate it with republicans who actually don’t care if trans kids die.

Yep I’m the enemy. A democrat whose been around queer people their whole life and who uses they/them pronouns instead of assuming gender, typical bigoted transphobe here.

I’ve been around trans/non-binary people my whole life. “They” is what has always been advocated. Getting called a bigot/transphobic bc I used they, was just used as an argument tactic. That person also used a gendered pronoun with me without asking. It was just assumed. and no one jumped on her.

And if their gender isn’t there then I can use they?

jfc. I used They, I don’t go to peoples profiles. If that makes me a bigot and a transphobic I don’t know what to tell you. I used a non gendered pronoun bc I didn’t want to assume.

Instead of checking peoples profile I just used they. I didn’t realize they is not now allowed.

All I did was use THEY for a stranger whose gender I didn’t know. And I got called transphobic and a bigot and a right winger.

So if I don’t know someone’s gender then there is no language to use so you don’t have to be specific about their gender? One must ask because it is no longer allowed to not infuse gender into pronouns?

I can’t even fathom beinf this online. It must be fucking wild.

I said THEY bc I didn’t want to assume their gender! How is that the right wing position?!?

I can’t even tell if you’re just taking the piss or being serious.

I don’t have time to Google shit for you. Maybe you should do that yourself before you post yr hot takes.

You wanted Biden to commit crimes?!? Hahaha 😂 how unserious of a person are you?! Jfc.

Wait is this an online prank show? Being called a bigot for using non gendered pronouns instead of assuming and now the yr dying the Republican controlled Supreme Court said Biden is king and can do whatever he wants? Where’s Ashton?!

I honestly maybe don’t know how it works. Explain it to me.

This Supreme Court declared Biden a king?

Biden?

You assume Biden is a dictator and held court and didn’t have to share power. That is not the world we live in and it’s not the world we want to live in. It is a tragedy but it is the truth of this country, especially one in the midst of white Christian supremacist fascist takeover.

Assuming someone’s gender is now the leftist pro trans position. Incredible.

Only if you take out the context of everything else Biden did and said and the context of others who have power shaping policy and the previous policies of the dem party. Stripped of context of any sort, then yes, they are moving right.

You’re comparing me to bigots bc I used a non-gendered pronoun instead of assuming someone’s gender online? The inability of certain online leftists to recognize progress needs to be studied.

That’s just demonstrably false.

And Dems wouldn’t even have to compromise if Dems had more power. Which they don’t.

Of course not. But also we were talking about trans children of active duty military. And I’m saying it was a forced compromise by the party that actually wants trans people dead. And Biden said he was against it but when for the greater good you sometimes havw to do bad.

I chose not to assume and use they instead of assuming. Non gendered and open.

I misgendered you with “they”!? You can’t be serious
