I know Trans people less certain about the issues you claim are throwing them under the bus than you are. They think Newsom has been perfectly reasonable on Trans matters. So do I. And if you're going to use that wedge issue as an excuse to succumb to authoritarianism...
¯\_(ツ)_/¯
Perfectly reasonable? His position is literally the same as the far right's
That sounds disingenuous and hyperbolic. How about we use specific examples in discussing this further? What exactly do you have a problem with? And are you aware of any policies he supports that do benefit the trans community? Or are you arguing there are none?
He literally did a whole podcast with Charlie Kirk explaining his hatred for us
Ok, thanks for that. I'll watch the full interview and get back to you. If there are specific parts or timestamps of the interview you want to draw my attention to let me know, in the meantime I'll open a tab and work my way through it.
Ok, finished watching the entire interview. Didn't hear anything that would I would classify as a hatred for trans people. What part did you find hateful?
You don't think banning transpeople from sports or forcing us to identify as our birth gender are hateful?
