Absolutely. I will never know the struggle of being a black woman in the united states. Living in systemic racism and facing a level of oppression and demanded Exceptionality higher than any other group. I dont think its just Mrs. Harris. I think its the party in general.

I voted for harris.

But i hope you have great night. And thank you for the dialogue, I do apologize if I came off as argumentative. My beliefs are strong on this. I genuinely believe in lifting the most marginalized groups of folks up, and how quickly many in the democratic party throw trans folks to the side upsetsme

Me Having an opinion and criticizing politicians, is and never will be, comparable to the harm that placating to Republcians over this budget bill would do to All people, including black and brown trans people. I need Politicians of every race,religion and creed to stand up for trans folks.

What!? No one ever said or implied that. im saying criticizing politicians for their actions is valid.That democrats throwing certain groups to the side is a valid issue with the party, and that makes it difficult to support them. We should criticize them. Their concession effect all trans ppl.

make concessions and won't staunchly defend trans people. My big point of contention right now is this budget bill. If Democrats cave on it and let All gender affirming care for Poor folks of all ages be stripped because they make concessions on us again. It will be harder to not criticize them.

If she had won. We still have every right to criticize politicians that do not uplift the trans community. No politician is above criticism. You may consider it selfish to criticize her or be apathetic at this point as we watch democrats consistently give away trans folks rights.

Turn their backs on trans and nonconforming people. I had issues with V.p. Harris during her time as a prosecutor, and had issues with her Non-defense of trans folks during the election cycle. But I ultimately knew it was harm reduction voting for her. Which is why I did. We wouldnt be in this

How is holding all democrats to the same standard of criticizing them when they throw trans folks to the side? Yes, the Stonewall riots were started by lots of trans and gender non comforming Black and brown folks. Including Storme, and Marsha. But I will always criticize politicians who

Oh it didnt post my first message response. Pete, Gavin, and Sarah McBride are all points of contention for me as well. Its not just Kamala. Disliked biden and his stance on trans people. Voted for him as well. I am tired of them consistently giving up our rights in concession to republicans.

I hold politicians to a basic standard with trans people. Yes. White privilege is real, and Black women are held to ridiculously high standards. Black excellence is usually demanded when white mediocrity is accepted. But I hold all politicians to the same standard with trans people.

I am expecting all Democrats to defend trans people. Gavin Newsome,Pete Butigeg, and Sarah McBride are points of contention for me as well. Democrats have to earn votes. They can't just expect trans people to keep supporting them if they dont defend us.I personally hold them all to that standard.

I expected her to stand up for us like the amazing Jasmine Crockett is, instead of Saying "I will follow the law" in response to trans rights.

Pete, Kamala , and Newsome have made concessions to republicans on trans folks. I only trust a handful of Dems as a trans person and independent. I voted democrat in past elections for harm reduction. Harder to do that since they constantly throw us under the bus. This budget bill is a hardline.

I voted kamala begrudgingly. And still dislike her a lot because she never stood up for Trans people. If the Democrats let this budget pass with the anti trans Healthcare amendments and I'll be too apathetic to even participate anymore. Because if they wont defend Trans folks they wont get my vote
