I know a ton of you absolutely hate Nancy Pelosi.
But I'll tell you now, the absence of someone with her "Fuck you, these are Democratic values and what I will stand and fight for" attitude and skill at maneuvering in the halls of Congress are a part of why trans rights are in the present state.
Like ok ok ok ok, easy there, guys. Push back on the racism, sexism, bigotry, etc. without trans people catching strays if possible.
The idea that Michelle Obama is secretly trans (what these guys mean when they say she's "a man") is silly, easily disproven, and comes from a place of racism, sexism, and general bigotry.
Just total garbage.
Your timely reminder:
If you've got 9 people sitting peacefully at a table with a nazi, you've got 10 nazis sitting at a table.
-or-
No. You CANNOT be friends with transphobes and call yourself an "ally" of trans people.

Oh... and John Oliver to the British Labor party.
Anyway here’s beloved Halo announcer Jeff Steitzer yelling “trans rights” in the famous voice
"You can't promise change, only to turn around and capitulate on key principles that you're supposed to stand for.
Because not only will you lose people to your left, the right will just keep moving the goalposts again and again. And you'll only have yourself to blame."
