L'équité c'est mal. Mettre ça dans la tête des gens, c'est leur donner des idées toxiques, comme de croire qu'iels ont droit à un traitement juste qu'iels n'ont pas mérité en naissant des bonnes personnes, au bon endroit, à la bonne date.

Je sais que c'est dur de ma part, mais je pense que M. Carmant avait laissé sa conscience au vestiaire bien avant d'entrer au cabinet. Comme malheureusement trop de gens, il aura fallu que la cruauté le frappe directement avant qu'il ne la retrouve.

This, from @erininthemorning.com's latest piece about Gavin Newsom helps explain why Newsom-loving libs' "erm, then enjoy Trump again!!!" stuff doesn't work on trans people who've been paying attention. www.erininthemorning.com/p/why-transg...

Some may argue, as they often do when transgender people raise concerns about Gavin Newsom, that the alternative would be worse. And in many respects, Trump or whatever Trump-like candidate emerges in 2028 would be worse than Newsom on a host of issues. But even here, for transgender people, the calculation is not so straightforward. Right now, the community has one thing going for it: one major political party still passes protective legislation and has not joined the litany of anti-trans policies escalating in red states. If that fragile dichotomy collapses—if Democrats too decide that transgender people can be sacrificed for political gain—the result will not be a lesser evil. It will be a political consensus that our rights are gone, and that outcome could be even worse.

One only has to look to the United Kingdom to see what happens when both major parties decide transgender people are expendable. For years, right-leaning parties targeted trans people relentlessly, while Labour offered tepid, lukewarm support. In the lead-up to recent elections, that support collapsed. Multiple Labour leaders determined that trans people were safe to sacrifice, culminating in the party leader’s now-infamous declaration that he does not believe transgender women are women. Today, the country is pursuing a nationwide bathroom ban, and youth care has been practically outlawed. In a political environment where both left and right agree that your existence is negotiable, there is no one left to fight for you. It is untenable—and if such sentiment takes root inside the Democratic Party, it could take generations for transgender Americans to claw back even the most basic of rights.

Transgender people have watched this performance before, and we know exactly where it leads. Whatever one thinks of Newsom as a politician or a future candidate, it is crucial to understand that for many in our community, his rise provokes as much fear as the Republican Party itself. The damage he can inflict is in some ways greater: Republicans attacking us keeps allies on alert, ready to resist. But when Democrats begin to adopt the same rhetoric, that resistance dissolves. Transphobia inside the party is not a treatable wound inflicted by the far right—it is a malignancy, slow-moving but devastating, one that threatens to hollow out decades of progress from within. If it spreads unchecked, it could mark the end of so much our community has fought to preserve.

The same week we lost a sister to anti-trans policies, were blamed by the government for 42m people losing SNAP, were told we should be abandoned by centrists yet again, & Trump declared Congress null & signaled he'll never leave office, the regime seeks to torture & kill every trans kid in America.

It’s quite literally the Platner defenders and DNC consultants who are out there implying via their actions/strategy that all white working class men are fascists or fascist friendly to the point that no better progressives can be found and that expecting or saying there’s better is purity politics.
