i get that peformative cynicism is the currency of social media, but, we’re like 75% of the way through biden’s first term, i think it’s a little late for people to pretend to be surprised when biden does something good that progressives agree with.

100%. (And black trans women? Forget about it!)
the thing i am thinking about as well is how anti-trans ideology is a stalking horse for racist ideologies as well. as we have actually seen in real life, it is a very short jump from “transwomen aren’t

It needs to use some of its $8 billion USD profits to invest in climate action to quit coal and go 100% renewable energy.
