This got removed from politics because “Video links are not allowed” apparently? Pretty weird considering that most politicians say stuff on video nowadays and not really writing articles anymore since the invention of the radio pretty much lol. Hope it’s a better fit here, this is the kind of stuff people should be aware of.

Josh Turek of Iowa, Democrat, comes out with one of the worst anti-trans ads yet.
Not only is it an anti-sports ad, it proposes a ban on federal funding for gender affirming care. That would hit all medicaid and medicare patients, and any ACA federally-subsidized plans as well.
The Democrat wants the same thing as the Republican. There is no changing either of their minds. I am one of their targets. Don’t fucking talk down to me like I don’t know what I’m talking about.
Really so they are exactly the same? Minus all the much worse stuff that the republicans also want.
But that doesn’t matter to you?
What is your solution?
One of them will win and you don’t care if its the worse one who will hurt more?
Where did I say that they were exactly the same? Why are you being disingenuous?
Your previous message said they want the same things.
What are you going to do to prevent the republican from winning?
What about all the people they will hurt with their policies?
Do you think your life will honestly be better with them in power?
Yea, they both want to strip my human rights away. I didn’t say that they were exactly the same. Different words mean different things.
My life will get demonstrably worse with either candidate, being trans+ myself. We are not your volleyball in the game of politics, we are people.
I’m organizing unions, to build labor power in support of a general strike that CWA, UAW, and other unions are building towards.
Okay so you agree that it would be worse if the republican wins?
When the “good guys” are talking about taking away human rights, there is no better or worse. Only depths of depravity.
Really neither could be worse? How very black and white your world vote is. Ignorance is bliss
How fucking dare you accuse me of ignorance when I’m warning about trans genocide coming from a Democrat while you tell me to ignore my looming slaughter to vote for a person that wants me dead. Go fuck yourself.
What bliss you cretin? There is a trans genocide looming and you’re ready to throw trans people under the bus to save your sorry ass 🦨💨
