3 things about Dem politicians who dabble in transphobia: 1. It's wrong, they're wrong, on a moral basis they're being evil 2. It's stupid, they're stupid, they'll never get any credit from the fascists for it 3. It's proof you're not capable of reading or rising to this, and therefore any, moment

I'm not about to tell Texans NOT to vote against Ken Paxton, anymore than I'll tell my fellow Long Islanders not to vote against whatever small-business blackshirts the GOP are running against Gillen & Suozzi. But Talarico made a fucking monkey of himself, completely unforced. He failed as a man.

Sorry to bring gender in it but when you're a man and you fail to defend vulnerable people whom it is within your power to defend guess what you just failed at being

There's literaly no votes to be had. I don't have any idea what his thought process is, besides morally wrong he would actually pick UP votes (from both sides) by sticking firm. It's so fucking pathetic, but even beyond that it's STUPID. Feels like a consultant told him and he just nodded.

Yeah, this doesn't even have to be a "to be a man you have to be a protector" masculinity thing, though many men believe that and have that as a value for themselves. It really just comes down to men having the most power in basically every facet of society. Using that to oppress makes you a coward.
