And behold the thing that I said was going to happen, has happened. More democrats engaging in transphobia to try to pry votes away from the fascist party by being fascist-lite.
Can we stop pretending the democrats can be reformed now? Their leadership has time and time again proven they do not give one fuck about progressive politics.
Neoliberal garbage. This is why she lost to literal fascists.
This comment section could be a case study about how China and Russia have used wedge issues to divide America. This kneejerk bullshit is why we have an orange goomba in the white house.
It's not China and Russia, it's both Republicans and Democrats being fascist Nazis, only one is slightly nicer and more convincing that they give a shit about human rights.
This is a tactic used by far right parties for much longer than China and Russia have had the chance to interfere with US and Europe politics.
Republicans picked these wedge issues all by themselves, following the manual of fascism to the T.
There is no goddamn problem! Fuck sake I should not have to choose fascist asshole or shifty semi fascist.
Scratch a liberal and a fascist bleeds. There is no such thing as values on the liberal wing of politics, just as there are no values on the MAGA wing. As soon as capital is involved, they will drop anything they stood for.
America has real problems! Healthcare, food, jobs, affordability. Talking about trans athlete's possible competitive advantages is such a misalignment of our priorities.
Yeah, but shitlibs won't talk about those things because they want to keep the corporate bribe money flowing.
I'd be more concerned about the group responsible for more than 50% of violent crimes, but I guess we're allowed to be scared of people playing sports too.
Absolutely painful to watch progressives here already trying to lose 2026.
A post about Kamala Harris has fuck-all to do with progressives. Why are you scapegoating?
This shouldn’t be an issue. Both sides should stop trying to mandate this. There should be men’s sports, women’s sports and co-ed sports, even at the pro level. Give athletes the freedom of choice and let them sort themselves.
Having 3 buckets, one third of which any one person is banned from participating in over arbitrary generic markers, doesn't really sound like "freedom of choice".
