@briandevine @daveweigel Better to mock trans people and constantly push a narrative that supporting them is bad politics.

I mean why would people want to make the minimal effort to make a trans person feel more welcome?

[Boston College Students 4 Equality 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ @BCEquality]

@briandevine @daveweigel Haha fuck those kids and their pronouns right!

It’s awesome that something so simple as making a small gesture to make people feel welcome, usually people who have had to hide or struggle with their identities, is a punchline for you guys.

Idaho AG Raul Labrador praised the lawsuit's dismissal in a statement that made no mention of why the case was being dismissed https://t.co/XI6czVfmt7

@michaelkruse This is such a refreshing and effective answer.

It’s so nice to see Democrat with a spine who doesn’t cower and pander to try to appeal to bigotry while throwing trans kids under the bus.

@daveweigel You would think trans issues are the single most important issue in American society and politics based on how many tweets Dave shares or posts. Not inflation, or Trump, or Iran, or the economy, or AI, but trans people.

It’s bizarre.

[Boston College Students 4 Equality 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ @BCEquality]

@daveweigel Dave can rarely go a single day so without posting or retweeting something about trans people, how politically Democrats are stupid for supporting them, and generally sees to just amplify and anti-trans posts by conservatives.

[Boston College Students 4 Equality 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ @BCEquality]

Sadly predictable outcome of the anti-trans hysteria being supported by Republicans and Democrats.

A teenager filed a discrimination charge against a Buffalo Wild Wings restaurant after having to expose herself to prove she was a woman.

A server reportedly stopped her from using the women’s bathroom and told her to “get out” until she revealed herself under her top.

@WesleySideStory @_waleedshahid Exactly how many rights can Republicans take away for trans people, or how much of the ability for them to simply exist in public can be taken away, before it’s worth strongly pushing back?

[Boston College Students 4 Equality 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ @BCEquality]

@WesleySideStory @_waleedshahid She literally said she will accept the Republicans bathroom ban and frames fighting back on the issue as taking the bait and not worth it.

Will she accept a ban on trans kids playing sports? Ability to use locker rooms? Access healthcare?

[Boston College Students 4 Equality 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ @BCEquality]

@atrupar @JoshuaRush This message actually sucks.

just because McBride is willing to cede her rights as a trans person doesn’t mean all queer and trans people are.

[Boston College Students 4 Equality 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ @BCEquality]

@_waleedshahid Should Democrats take a stand against Republican laws blocking trans people from accessing healthcare?

Where is the line where ceding trans peoples’ rights and ability to exist goes too far for you @_waleedshahid?

[Boston College Students 4 Equality 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ @BCEquality]

@_waleedshahid McBride may be willing to cede her rights to Republicans, and portray that as merely a distraction, but not all queer and trans people agree.

Where does she or Democrats draw the line? if Republicans bar trans people from locker rooms should we let that go to?

[Boston College Students 4 Equality 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ @BCEquality]

@_waleedshahid What about when the ban trans kids from playing sports or from@other school activities? Should we just accept that as well because it’s more important for Democrats to worry about their electoral chances and they’ve decided standing up for Transp hurts that?

[Boston College Students 4 Equality 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️ @BCEquality]

We support all* trans people.

*some exceptions may apply.

Caitlyn Jenner: "sometimes the trans issue is being taken advantage of for political reasons. I can see why, and I'm- I do it. I do the same thing."

Governor Andy Beshear, in a Trump +30 state, gives advice to Democrats: Do not throw LGBTQ+ people under the bus, it will not work.

His advice to dems: Lead on your values.

This man ran on a fully inclusive campaign in 2023 and won. He received the same kind of ads Harris did.

Thank you for these kind words. This is what having moral clarity and a backbone looks like.

So proud to have you as our Congresswoman!

[Ayanna Pressley @AyannaPressley]

This election cycle wasn’t the first time we saw the trans community scapegoated and dehumanized, but know this:

I will always stand with trans people and the entire LGBTQ+ community.

This Congresswoman sees you and loves you.
