COMMUNITY/MODS: want this post gone, it’s gone - would remove ASAP.
Please be excellent to each other here. We have to self moderate or I’ll delete without being asked. Assume good intent.
I’m pro human which is why I’d rather have some people in office here in the US than others, and why I’m pro human rights.
Trans rights are human rights.
After reading criticism of the dems, this question resurfaced in my mind. I know we don’t have time machines, I know it’s easy to claim a false equivalency is being drawn. So note this question doesn’t represent reality. It represents a curiosity of a hypothetical.
Trans rights are human rights! Thank you.
PS: I hope neither this post nor its comments represent/produce any content that bad people will use to make arguments to further evil causes. Have I already erred? Yes I’m worried, I’m also curious enough to hit this post button here… gulp

Imagine you have a time machine that lets you peek into the future, specifically the 2024 election. You can see two possible pathways:
Pathway 1: Democrats go all-in on trans rights.
They champion inclusive policies, fight for trans healthcare, and actively challenge anti-trans legislation. However, this galvanizes the opposition and they lose the election.
Pathway 2: Democrats stay completely silent on trans rights.
They avoid the issue entirely, focusing on other policy areas. This strategy helps them win the election, but trans rights are left in a vulnerable position.
The question is: which pathway would you choose?
Would you prioritize a Democrat win, even if it means sacrificing progress on trans rights? Or would you fight for trans rights, even if it means risking a loss?
But American politicians can invest in the stock market with insider knowledge.
