Surely now democrats will stand up for trans people.

[–] InputZero@lemmy.world 20 points 1 month ago (1 children)

They'd have to stand up for themselves first.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 12 points 1 month ago

Oh they do that plenty. Against the left.

[–] SkaveRat@discuss.tchncs.de 18 points 1 month ago

You need a spine to stand

[–] MangioneDontMiss@feddit.nl 13 points 1 month ago (1 children)

democrats are useless fucks. they are so fucking impotent and complacent it makes me want to puke.

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 9 points 1 month ago

democrats are useless fucks.

Unless your name is netanyahu. Then they'll ignore the Leahy law to make sure you get everything you need to genocide Palestinians for them.

In all other things, you can count on them to make up some procedural bullshit to stand in their own way.

Kamala will keep saying "I'll follow the law" on trans people, as she enforces the law sending us all to camps.

Best they’ll do is offer to paint a 🌈 on the side of a UAV.

We did it, Reddit!

[–] Ensign_Crab@lemmy.world 8 points 1 month ago

It won't let me edit, so I'll reply instead:

"EDIT": Nope. They're blaming people who spoke out against genocide, regardless of how they voted. Like always. We were all there for the 2024 election. Everyone saw the constant barrage of vicious attacks from the right against trans people. The silence from democrats was more deafening than Krakatoa. And now democratic think tanks are starting to talk about dropping even the fake solidarity with trans people.

With stern letters.

sure, just gotta wait for the committee to roll out where all the Dems can sit on it and spew awesome quotes for the media and then do.....jack all.

OR they'll utilize the system that the GOP have pretty but shown to completely ignore.

OR Americans maybe can FINALLY stand up and protect their fellow Americans that are now under attack and are at valid risk of being executed en masse.

lol who am I kidding, we know NONE of this is going to happen.
