[GSV do we have a pulse?🛳️⚓️ @beyastorm]

They’re gonna start saying she cried in the 2nd quarter 😭😭😭😭

@presumptiveflow mike johnson should be pulled apart with hooks, i thought that went without saying

the only reason we ask this of dems is that we think they’re capable, rep politicians should be set on fire categorically, they’re not worth the breath used to argue with them

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@trashbaby40k she wanted war with iran probably more than trump did, she ran on that too

she might have fucked it up less but she really wanted it

m4a is table stakes for progressivism, if you can’t advance the piece of prog legislation closest to completion how are you going to do anything?

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@presumptiveflow cool AND YET it’s the only trans-related ruling or law that existed beyond the first like month of trump, it’s his sole lasting action so forgive us if we’re not falling over ourselves to thank him for it

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@EdmondHatfield i am trans people?? she uses the phrase “transgender ideology” herself and i’m saying it’s bad 😭😭

simpleton lol

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@JdRayne29540 @BriskittyBackup in the twentyish years trans women were allowed i think only one or two competed at all, none medaled

wringing your hands about fairness in the face of the ton of data we already have and calling for a ban while we “figure this out” is flat out transphobic

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@JdRayne29540 @BriskittyBackup in the early 2000s the IOC published some guidelines allowing trans women to compete after 2 years of HRT and I believe meeting a specific T level as well

most sporting bodies adopted that as their criteria and there was no problem at all with it until it recently became a wedge

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@_glorianas @EPM106 i don’t think any part of her post said “it’s not worth caring about” or “stop complaining so much”

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@ArataStart1 @happyenchilada2 @adamforever100 @trashbaby40k back against any of this rhetoric and with a very few exceptions like Beshear have just completely capitulated on what should nationally be a non-issue for anyone

why do we need to build a grass-roots effort to work outside the system just to keep from moving backwards?

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@ArataStart1 @happyenchilada2 @adamforever100 @trashbaby40k fifteen years ago nobody anywhere had an opinion about trans women in sports

republican politicians actively worked with figures in the media to move public opinion to where it is today

democratic politicians have just followed them rightward on it, they had a chance to push

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@ArataStart1 @happyenchilada2 @adamforever100 @trashbaby40k i think the dems could never say “trans” or anything about us ever again and net better than they are right now electorally

bourgeois elections suck but they will continue for the foreseeable future and watching the one party that says they care fumble and fumble is miserable

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@ArataStart1 @happyenchilada2 @adamforever100 @trashbaby40k “the harm you experience is marginal, it sucks but it is what it is” and you wonder where that feeling of abandonment is coming from?

you openly don’t give a fuck about us and it costs you nothing because there aren’t enough of us to influence anything

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@IMoshagen29464 @ThatchEffendi if it’s worse than you expected, but less bad than Contra expected, does that mean

a) she thinks things are good now,

or

b) she expected things to be worse than this?

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@ArataStart1 @happyenchilada2 @adamforever100 @trashbaby40k this gal is at the national convention talking to the presumptive next presidential candidate about feeling abandoned on the national stage, my local comforts are not a “gotcha” that defeats that

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@ArataStart1 @happyenchilada2 @adamforever100 @trashbaby40k beyond that most dems have reversed their stance on GAHT for under-18s which has been studied and tested to be safe, including the really high-profile ones like newsome and tallarico

transition is possible for me where i live because of local policies, not the national party

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@slowgamesmaster @vodkasnowflake the current government has fucked basically everything up completely, almost beyond repair

you really think it wouldn’t be enough to run on that? there’s just no way to compete with the dumbest losers ever without also making a big deal about how trans people are predators, hm?

[vraska @RabbitUnique]

@IMoshagen29464 @ThatchEffendi can you try sounding this sentence out for me, the one circled in red? the words are pretty small
