    Those are the only options? We can’t have non transphobic people in primaries? We can’t hold them to a hire standard? If we are at the point where these are our only options, we are already cooked.

    Hold them to a higher standard and they will be forced to it. Giving in and staying well, I’d rather vote for a transphobe than a MAGA allows them to stay transphobic.

    This is the whole problem, we’ve been convinced we need to vote for harm reduction and only harm reduction, and even the Democrats are sliding further right.

    Do better. Don’t accept a shit sandwich and a shit sandwich with mayonnaise.

      In the November elections those are often the only choices. You can vote Dem or vote MAGA or not vote, the last two options get us MAGA.
