Trump was already president once and my political work was actually easier because liberals were outraged and could not understand the complicoty of their representatives.

Hope you can look trans and queer people in the eye and tell them their genocide will be worth it in the end because you'll stop all genocides. You know, after they're dead and gone.

This is the most nothing-burger reply. Queer people are among the most vocally supportive of moving outside the bounds of electoralism because the DNC does not protect them.

Hey look you did the meme of this post.

I organize with trans communists all the time and materially support trans spaces. There is no lack of trans people that oppose both capitalist parties. But more importantly, if you are to avoid tokenizing people, you must have an actual analysis for liberation and not a monolithic "this is what trans people want" stereotyping. The latter is always incorrect and never actually happens because trans people are not a monolith. The former just means you understand this and know which trans people you disagree with. For example, I disagree with assimilationists that support genocidal Democrats and try to pretend liberation comes at the expense of others.

Hey, as a trans person involved in a socialist org, get involved in a socialist org instead of arguing for your own catharsis.

Trans genocide is happening in plenty of states even with a democrat in charge, democrats will not prevent trans genocide on a long term basis.
