Yeah, also she didn't get caught because of an ID requirement, she got caught because she bragged about it to someone, but of course that won't stop Gavin from pushing dogshit voter suppression measures
If a group of politicians were trying to take away access to chemo specifically then I assure you people would advocate specifically for access to chemo.
It doesn't have to, you fucking nitwit. Chemotherapy is for the benefit of the cancer patient.
And guess what? Everyone benefits from living in a society where everyone is able to access the medical care that they need.
Only someone truly insane, out-of-touch, malicious, misanthropic, cynical, selfish, and short-sighted would ever ask a question like "But how do I or anyone else benefit from you receiving medical treatment?"
My most urgent issue is human rights. Ipso facto trans rights. If you think you can Munich Conference your way into "helping" fight the modern Nazis, you are the one who should reassess the value you are adding
But if you decide trans people don’t qualify as human, their rights don’t matter anymore. If that becomes acceptable, all anyone has to do to deny you of your own human rights is to decide you are some lesser life form without legal protections.
We help eachother swim or every damn one of us drowns.
Existential threats kind of supercede anything else honestly. Just because the Republicans happen to be doing absolutely everything evil and destructive possible across the board, that doesn't mean any of the individual issues are less severe.
Not getting a specific trans right isn't an existential threat and it is relatively less severe than the emergence of a technofacist surveillance state and the re-enslavement of humanity, imo.
ted cruz is the lightning rod for the gop senate, his terrible for the gop, but they need him in the senate because they have slim margin and cant afford to lose even 1 senator the dems, him and lindsey are reliable votes.

Perhaps it should be the increasing reduction in resource access and the loss of the tangible value of labour within the market economy monopoly.

If the fact that some people have their rights stripped from them for spurious reasons is not urgent, then your entire perspective is irrelevant.

Those are not mutually exclusive to trans rights. There’s actually considerable overlap.
minorkeys@sh.itjust.works · -1 pts · 67d
If rights are shared with non-trans, they aren't trans rights, they're just human rights
