B-52 with trans flag

B-52 with trans flag
in maryland, incarcerated trans women have the choice between being housed with men (a Prison Rape Elimination Act violation) or in solitary (considered torture by the UN) and still struggle to gain access to transition healthcare or have grievances heard regarding sexual abuse
To Maryland's trans community: Our state would be incomplete without you. We will continue to defend your rights against the Trump Administration.

Last year when I was going to lots of community meetings in the run up to the election all I heard about was the massive privatization effort Bidens Hud was doing to force 700 fed owned units out, to be replaced by 500 private units. Harris might have used those votes in PA. They stayed home

Like, how confident are you a Democrat president is going to restore these programs at least as good as they were under Biden? I am not confident of that at all

Of course that matters. If we elected nothing but Democrats for a generation we would still have people without homes who want them. Less bad. Also promising not to end the bad. Because they work for the people who profit from the bad.

I am fascinated by the sheltered and privileged existence you must have to think this is different than the current state of the US

I hope everyone liking this comment is familiar with what the Democratic Party was doing during this time, which mostly ranged from "jack shit" to "support the troops"

If Biden had done that he would be just as bad as Trump, I have been told so many times on this app

Less bad, yes. Everything bad still there, just less of it

I cannot give you a route to do that in an election because this isn't a democracy. That is one of the many things that we have no say in. Which, again, is the point of the meme. Politics is tricking us into believing things can get better if we vote harder

The obvious answer is to treat these people, from top to bottom, as mortal enemies. Which is how they treat us. We are already in a civil war, just a one sided affair. Democrats want to surrender before even fighting.

Of course you can't save the person on the ground - you have already decided not to try.
