[CW: Transphobia/Misgendering] Congresswoman McBride states that she will not challenge transphobic congressional bathroom ban.
[CW: Transphobia/Misgendering] Congresswoman McBride states that she will not challenge transphobic congressional bathroom ban.
The decision comes after Mike Johnson declared that transgender people are not allowed in bathrooms of their gender identity under the provision that he "controls the facilities."
Kinda pissed that the first trans congresswoman is also a zionist lib. Letting this go unchallenged is only going to embolden the fash.
You're viewing a single thread.
I'm not here to fight about bathrooms
Fuck off, being able to exist in public is a fight worth having. This framing as if bathrooms aren't important pisses me off.
Especially when right after she writes
I am here to fight for delawareans
Are there no other trans people in Delaware?
Fuck off, being able to exist in public is a fight worth having.
You're telling the persecuted victim to fuck off.
I would like to redirect your anger to Nancy Mace and Mike Johnson, two of the people directly responsible for doing this to her.
She's not willing to fight for herself, so what is supposed to make any of us believe that she's going to fight for any trans people?
I'm sorry, is she not "being the victim" the right way for you?
Direct your ire at the Republicans, please. Not their victim.
You need to understand that the purpose of a system is what it does. Democrats who have done nothing except roll over as more and more rights are taken away as quite literally just as guilty of the outcome as the Republicans who vote the bills into law. They are voluntarily upholding and enacting this system. They don't deserve our sympathy.
roll over as more and more rights are taken away
Are you under the impression that trans rights are on the decline?
Are you under the impression that trans people have fewer rights today than they did 5 years ago? 10 years?
I don't accept the premise of your argument. You can argue that they aren't advancing quite as fast as you would like. You can argue that there are holdouts, like these two GOP asswipes. But you can't rationally argue that "more and more rights are being taken away" let alone that the Democrats are responsible for it.
They don't deserve our sympathy.
"They" being the victim of Nancy Mace and Mike Johnson? The victim of this attack doesn't deserve our sympathy, because she didn't fight hard enough?
fuuuuuuuck off lol get the fuck outta here you democrat defending loser debatelord. are you even trans? it doesn't feel like you're coming from a place of good faith.
You can fuck off too. She's in a position to make a difference and refuses to fight for herself. If she's this spineless now, what makes anyone think she's going to do anything of value? It doesn't matter who's doing this. She needs to actually fight back.
you are a foolish liberal
Ok.
glad we could settle this matter
genuine question, are you trans?
she is a comprador to the amerikkkan regime and a zionist, why should i show her an ounce of respect or solidarity? she is my enemy, the fact that she's trans doesn't change that
If she's going to claim to represent us, and then fail to fight for us on the most basic shit about the right to exist in public; she can fuck right off the tallest building she can find.
Fuck this victim shit. She stepped into the ring, she's wearing our colors, and she's rolling over. Thats not a victim.
Edit: this is surrendering on our behalf, not being a victim.
Are you saying she's not "being victimized" the right way?
Again: Nancy Mace. Mike Johnson.
I'm saying she stepped up in our name. This is the most obvious shit, she had to know this would happen if she isn't dumber than a bag of scopolamine. She chose this fight.
So she needs to fucking fight it, or we all look bad. It means shit heads like this are going to be this much bolder everywhere else.
She could fight badly. She could lose. She could fuck up. I probably wouldnt hold that against her. Declining to fight is what is egregious here.
This is going to be a problem for so many other people, so many more are going to have to fight or suffer this now; people who will not have any choice whether to fight it, because this piece of shit rolled over for fascist belly rubs. Because it made it look okay. Like to be a 'good' trans person is to not fight being erased from public life, making any objector de-facto compared negatively to it.
I will not have sympathy for a fucking us congressghoul. Not one of them has been a victim since the fucking civil war.
Any political figure who doesn't want to fight for trans rights should fuck off.
I am angry at them, and all the other anti trans politicians.
Agreed, Nancy Mace and Mike Johnson can fuck right off for what they are doing to Sarah McBride. They are disgusting individuals with disgusting viewpoints.
every US congressperson is a disgusting individual hope this helps. also McBride is transphobic and a zionist comprador to the US regime, she doesn't deserve my sympathy.
Yes. Also Sarah McBride chose this fight when she got elected. And by rolling over like this she's fucking all of us over.
So, this victim is to blame for "fucking all of us over" because she didn't fight back hard enough, or in the right way?
I think what you meant was:
Yes.
Also Sarah McBride chose this fight when she got elected. And by rolling over like this she's fucking all of us over.
I promise you literally everyone in this thread already would happily toss Mike Johnson and whatever other transphobic cronies in a pit and a live grenade to follow. We're allowed to be pissed off at the lack of resistance and solidarity from supposed representatives of the community in question.
Constant reminder that queerness does not absolve Whiteness; and if she's not willing to fight for even her own, then she's a traitor to the cause of the highest order
