A new survey from the progressive polling firm Data for Progress shows that voters across party lines are fed up with candidates using anti-trans rhetoric on the campaign trail.
History has repeatedly shown us they’ll just move on to a new target for their bigotry because that’s the only way they can come close to getting a majority of voters to back their economic plans that only serve a wealthy few. Like, trans people right now are just what gay people were for their party 10-20 years ago.
I try to console myself by realizing they’ll lose that fight too. And the next. And the next. The road will be bumpy and full of struggles, and people will suffer while we walk it, but in the people eternally looking backwards can not win. They fight for the past, but we are the future.
