I think you’d be better served telling your friends. Democrats are going to line up behind whoever the party wants, that has been made clear for decades now. Get your friends to start liking AOC. She is the Dem coalition compromise candidate. Not perfect for everyone but will win resoundingly.

Not sure why Reform announcing they’ll scrap the Equality Act 2010 hasn’t provoked widespread alarm.
They want to torch our human rights framework AND repeal our right to protection from discrimination.

The EHRC has met regularly with transphobic hate groups over the last five years but not once with any trans-led organisations.
It is neither an equalities nor a human rights organisation, it is a transphobic hate group.

This is the UK’s 'equality' regulator.
Trans voices are not important enough for the EHRC to keep a record of what was said. This should be a headline in all the papers.

They're coming for adult care and they're explicit about it.
Kevin Roberts, President of The Heritage Foundation, claims that evidence suggests a correlation between undergoing Trans Medical Care and acts of violence.
He states Heritage's public policy solution is to ban it for all ages and they're willing to work towards this goal on an incremental basis.
