    Well, you should probably google it. Can’t hurt to be aware. I dont think its a very online thing either. Its the GOP’s entire agenda for the next few years.

    Yeah I mean, thats my point? Heavily blue states are making themselves sanctuary states. This to me is a sign of the material difference between Democrats and Republicans. Idk what that response was meant to say. Like, yeah, whats going on in your state sucks. But it doesnt contradict my point.

    I’ve seen a few examples of EOs Biden has put out regarding trans rights, but I dont have all of them available, here’s just one: https://www.texastribune.org/2022/06/15/joe-biden-texas-transgender-care/

    Like I said, far from sufficient, but it is to me a material difference. If it isnt for you, thats your prerogative, particularly as a trans person.

      The point I’m trying to make is that voting in bourgeois elections is ultimately a pointless matter. My vote as a trans woman in this state means absolutely nothing as there is almost no support to further our rights or cement them into law. The democrats in this state are rather feckless and, when in power, will do almost nothing with said power. As is expected from that party.

      Even with that executive order, trans rights have been getting eroded in many places anyways. And that’s just trans rights. I hope I’m just ignorant to such matters simply because I would like to have a positive outlook on our future. I just don’t see it. Even then, Biden’s done almost nothing of note since coming into power. He fucking had full control of the legislative branch for fuck’s sake. What’s voting for them again going to fucking do?

      Just looked at this Project 2025 thing. This reads like a pipe dream of some right wing think tanks. Even though the democrats are incompetent, I can’t see them letting Republicans erode their power entirely. They need that power to court donors after all, and then do absolutely nothing with it.

      To tie all this together, I hope I’m just politically unaware of matters. I simply just don’t have the time to keep in touch with all of this. I take care of the people in my polycule and help them run their lives. I simply just don’t have the time to deal with things that I have absolutely no control over.
