anyone who talks remotely closely to this without becoming a priest or nun always strikes me as compensating for something horrible. if you mention the christian god every time you speak, you strike me as either clergy or a serial killer

We've gotten so in the trees talking about trans issues that people seem to have forgotten this isn't just a social or cultural issue. It's healthcare. We're debating the continued existence of life saving medical treatment for a life threatening medical condition.

I don’t think the average person in America knows how close they are to being on the wrong side of this situation. These cops are fucking crazy out here. They flip a switch and that’s it, your life is over bc they misunderstood you or just got frustrated with themselves
"he's not in your custody if you don't have him" both ignores what legal custody is (somebody does not actually have to live with you at all for you to have custody) and is an argument against the possibility of any missing child being in parental custody. it's an argument...
anyway mena arkansas police sergeant eddie price is just saying absolutely anything he can to get out of filing a report for the disappearance of a child which he is definitely intentionally covering up, one who's still missing after half a year. eddie price is a human...

the angry replies to a neutral analysis like this reveal the central problem at play for trans people in the party: they can attack us as much as they want to appeal to swing voters, but us not voting for them in response is illegitimate. we are not allowed to do politics.
This is a very risky ad IMO.
Turek cannot afford to have any significant number of Democratic base voters leave the Senate line blank. #IASen

I'm sure all the Iowan Trump voters will see Turek conceding both the framing of the race and the actual position in that framing to MAGA being totally right and will somehow see this as a reason to leave MAGA instead of a sign of surrender to MAGA victory on trans people

The truth is that everybody has a line somewhere where Vote Blue No Matter Who stops being true for them. You're lying to yourself if you think don't have one. And "open bigotry against you" is an extremely obvious and reasonable place for trans people to draw that line.

The negative backlash to this trans woman -- clip being an optics win in the regard that AOC had basically the ideal answer -- is a mask slip. People are really mad that this makes moderates look unprincipled AND ineffective, when the latter is their deflection for the former.
Trans voter to @AOC: Trans people in America feel like they've been abandoned by the Democratic Party, that we are a losing issue, that it's not worth defending us. What do you say to that?
AOC:

The psychosis around this feels extra strange when AOC answers in such a perfect manner and instead of discussing that every liberal in the qrts are bashing on this poor trans woman for asking something the audience clearly is interested in

AOC:
tl;dr on this by the way:
- the poverty level, the poverty line, whatever you want to call it, is the highest it's ever been
- the poverty rate is the lowest it's ever been
- these are official federal measurements with almost *no real direct bearing* on how "poor" people are

I don’t know what this means but I hope it means that candidates frequently trail off of campaign messaging to talk about having sex with older women
