    I love it. It doesn’t matter that Biden has consistently supported trans rights with tangible action during his administration, trans people are still under attack, so it’s Literally All The Same. Like people who ask why there are still fires if there are firefighters.

      The tangible actions he waited until his final year of the term to enact, that are instantly being challenged by states. That’s not consistent and it’s hardly tangible. You’re not going to tell me that my own struggles are worth ignoring a genocide.

        So which is it? He hasn’t done anything or he waited too long in his term? How does any of this even compare to the other guy??? Sometimes I wonder if you guys are smoking shrooms because you make no sense

          He waited too long to do barely anything. It’s okay if reading comprehension isn’t your strong suit.

            Even if it was “barely anything” which is not true, how is the alternative better? Address the points without the unnecessary banter.

              A token display of support that you know will be annulled, and thus have no consequences, is meaningless. Just keep on speaking for minority groups who dare question Democrat orthodoxy and its tokenism, I’m sure that’ll endear you to them eventually.

                  It always comes out that y’all are just as hateful. You’re the one gleefully threatening fascism.

                    There’s just no winning with you guys. There will never be a perfect candidate. How can you not understand that? The fact that I have to argue the difference between a “token of support” versus complete annihilation is so mind boggling stupid. But here we are. Last thing I’ll say: Biden is far from perfect but change takes time: It’s incremental. There will be no revolution until you get the whole party on board. Good luck with your nihilism.

                    OK so you are just arguing in bad faith to get that guy upset. If we get trump again you never bidens -will- deserve it. You’ll lose. Hard.

              Honestly there is no amount of support for trans rights that he could do that would make me overlook Biden’s support of the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Spain just vowed to turn away ships at their ports carrying weapons for Israel and recognize Palestine as a state. The United States is continuing to send bombs, and the only action that has been taken is … threatening to send smaller bombs. It’s absolutely disgusting, and this is what Biden is doing. I am horrified.

        It’s funny. I’ve had this song and dance before. When I break out previous actions towards guaranteeing trans rights, it immediately shifts from “It was too late in his term” to “Well it wasn’t enough”.

              You’re telling me I’m moving the goalposts I’m telling you the goal was never scored.

                That’s right, and it never will be, because you’ll always have another excuse ready.
