news Trump: day 1 will ban trans people from military, schools and gender affirming care

[Sergi91]

The left was too focused on genocide abroad and forgot we will have problems domestically with a second Trump term. Well here we are.

I was going to point out how you genuinely have no logic and contradict yourself given you *started* out in this thread suggesting leftists DID have this kind of power.

 

But then you went and made it easy for me by literally just contradicting yourself again the next post you made:

I'm sorry but it is embarrassing. Liberals have to be maligned for their own good. They have to be ostracized to help them see they're victim to their own beliefs. Talking to liberals at this point is like talking to cult victims after the poison's been drank and you all actually didn't ascend to heaven with the Great Leader, awarded for being True Believers. You were in a political MLM scheme this whole time - one worth $1b.

 

Everything you have ever believed in politically by definition of being a liberal has been proven to be incorrect... a falsehood... a lie... a mirage. The Clinton-Obama-Biden era of politics is officially over and it is being dragged out of the White House with Biden's barely-alive body not knowing what year it is. The very politicians you claimed were committed to stopping fascism have run away with $1b in donations and left us to die under Trump.

 

The liberal wonks and pundits of this era of politics are themselves already taking to social media to praise Trump to avoid retribution against them or are joining in aiming their sights and knives on trans people as needing to be maligned to save their failed neoliberal project. Your heroes were crooks. Your idols were false gods. The Resistance just let Trump win.

 

This has nothing to do with the average voter. But anyone who still feels compelled to defend any faction of the failed liberal project - especially for their own continued monied interests like liberal pundits - should be publicly shamed.

 

The below moment sealed the fate of millions of LGBTQ Americans and has brought us to where we are at. Any elected official who valued stopping the Bernie Sanders movement and left-wing young people everywhere back in 2020 more than they valued creating a long-lasting, viable political movement has the blood of minorities everywhere on their hands:

Centrists can't be held accountable for supporting a dementia patient whose mind was melting in public all the way back during the 2019 debates, but… the left should be held accountable for even though every ~~Jill Stein~~ THIRD PARTY voter switching to Kamala wouldn't have remotely been enough?

 

Why can't liberals face accountability and accept that voters aren't buying the warmed-over neoliberal garbage they've been selling since Clinton won with the Third Way strategy in 1992 (and only because Ross Perot helped him)?

I mean, his cult doesn't even want schools to exist in the first place.

They do. That's why you see some of them scrambling and panicking here.

What if I tell you that this is exactly what they wish for. Accelerationists and tankies wish for the destabilization of the US's democracy at all cost.

 

They simply do not have your best interests at heart. The fact that Trump and Elon are now in power, and all they can cry about is Democrats this, Biden that just shows which team they are playing for.

 

People keep saying that the horseshoe theory is a meme. But when we refer to it, it means that both Putin's tankies AND Trump's MAGAS are both working toward the same goal: the destabilization of the US government. They both see it as the enemy that needs to be defeated. Trump wants to destroy it so he can stay in power and not in jails for all his crimes. Meanwhile, tankies want to destroy it because they are delusional enough to think a America in anarchy would ultimately lead to a leftist revolution come out on top (again, delusional), plus it also benefits their true mothership Russia and China. So it's a win-win for two supposedly opposite sides to work toward the same goal.

I don't really know about US politics but does he really have sole power to do this? In my country, the president doesn't, the senate body have to agree to stuff like this.

"Accelerationists and tankies" = poor black people, apparently!

Reading through the comments I can't decipher who's a leftie, liberal, centrist, etc 

 

Good luck to our trans siblings. I'd like to believe that things won't turn out as bad as it's implied, but I have little hope. Phags are next, brace yourselves sisters 

[JustHoran]

This gay for Kamala stands with my trans brothers and sisters. We will fight with you. I'm so sorry.

[modeblock]

Among the many mistakes Kamala made, not valiantly standing up for our trans siblings when the GOP was fervently attacking their very existence was a clear signal that this party is completely and utterly LOST. 

 

She said trans kids and their parents should follow the law when they asked her where she stood on this topic. ZERO integrity. What a ******* loser! What a ******* shame! 

 

This falls SQUARELY on the shoulders of Joe Biden and Kamala Harris, who failed us tremendously.

Let's thank AALLL the LGBTQ voters that based their vote solely on matters in the Middle East (which is STILL important as well) and not the BS we have to deal with here in the U.S.!!! 
 

All of y'all that voted third-party/Trump JUST BECAUSE you thought Kamala was "sketchy" and because she wasn't answering questions to the specificity that you guys thought she should've, just goes to show y'all were critical af with her from the start. Now look at what y'all did! 

Girl, what planet are you on? LGBTQ+ voted overwhelmingly for Kamala. The small amount that did vote for third party / Trump would NOT have won Kamala the election. PEOPLE STAYED HOME, girl! There was nothing in Kamala's wishy-washy message that spoke to independents, disaffected voters.

 

SHE FAILED TO GET OUT THE VOTE because she's beholden to ruling class interests, which do NOT give a flying **** about trans people. That's who she aligned with, and well that's what she got in return from the electorate - a catastrophic loss.

I don't see removing trans in schools a possibility without protracted legal battles, and I don't see them wasting their time on that. In conservative private schools yes, but we already know that.

 

The other two, are not new.

He's been talking about military ban for years and its a low hanging fruit for them, because, unfortunately, its disproportionately not popular within the military.

 

Gender affirming care is the most concerning and present danger, because they been rolling this out nearly unopposed in anti-trans states as we speak.

 

But sadly, again, these aren't new either.

 

I can't imagine how our trans friends feel right now. What we do is we support, we donate, we march. I feel like humanity is our path here, not politics.

Keep writing nonsensical essays for the next 10 years to support your online persona. I'm sure that will solve everything and lead to change.

While sickening and something I never wanted to witness in my lifetime ever again, maybe we need to go back to draconian times so those ungrateful ass Gen Z -> alpha scum who fought for NOTHING, and was born into social rights lose everything due to voting Republican and understand how awful things were in the past. Trial by inferno, best way of putting it.

I would like a candidate who's explicitly against genocide, pro-choice, pro-abolitionism, pro-reproductive rights, pro-trans, among other things.

 

Queer rights were in peril in specific states, even when Trump was not president. Abortion rights as well, and bodily autonomy rights in general. Apart from that, the Biden administration continuously defended ongoing genocides happening literally anywhere. 

 

I would never vote for Kamala (let alone endorse her) cause "she's no Trump". These are capitalist impasses, like I wrote on another post before.

Unfortunately life's not fair and we don't always get what we want.

I wonder what Blair white thinks when she starts looking like a man again 

[teresaguidice]

all 50 states and 89% of US counties shifted right in 2024 from 2020. i'm very impressed at how much power "leftists" apparently have! 

 

but luckily atrl's centrist thought leaders are here to use trans issues as a cudgel to confirm their priors and wack their political opponents. i'm trying to remember what other group tends to do that?
