The directive, which continues the Trump administration’s efforts to curb transgender rights, could end school-based mental health services and support for homeless students.

    As a public school teacher, I can assure these fascist pigs that I will continue to support and uplift all my students, including trans kids and any kids in the LGBTQI+ spectrum.

    How the “Queers For Palestine” feeling about their “Genocide Joe” protest vote now? Good? Bad?

      Feeling just as usual. One genocidal state official or another, genocide is always a red line.

          They’re not the same. I’m just saying that genocide is a red line for many people and that shouldn’t be so hard to get into your damn heads. Not everyone can look the other way when a genocide is happening and “vote strategically”.

      Oh fuck off. That genocide is coming here sooner or later and the only way to stop it is to oppose genocide against all people, not just when politically convenient.

      Go be mad at the useless democrats who are controlled opposition instead of voters with a conscience, something you lack.

      The democrats could of stopped arming Israel and didn’t. They could be stopping trumps picks right now but are instead voting them in.

      THE DEMOCRATS ARE NOT AND HAVE NEVER BEEN YOUR FRIEND. THEY ARE CONTROLLED OPPOSITION. WAKE THE FUCK UP.

        Agreed. Remember that corporate Democrats, on the heels of their loss, were grappling with the idea they should have tried to sell out trans people to try to get more republican votes? I remember.

        They made a great deal of money though acting like they believed Trump winning was going to be the end of Democracy. I agree he will be, but their actions after the election show me they don’t believe it, or they don’t care because they see their own opportunity there. The fact that they aren’t even trying to gum the works for his cabinet shows how on board they are.

        If you were in a position of power watching these events unfold would you be cool helping rubber stamp to enable them? I sure a fuck couldn’t. But our supposed “last bastion of democracy” collectively doesn’t seem to have an issue. Don’t want to rock the boat on the road to our new christofascist state huh?

          Exactly what you’re saying. If I was in their shoes I’d be doing everything in my power to block them. What the fuck are they doing???

          They don’t care about democracy. It’s all theatre to them. If they cared they would have made sure to run a candidate that wasn’t going to lose to a fascist. You know, a candidate that had real grassroots support. Oh I don’t know who could that be, Bernie sanders? Back in 2016??? The democrats would rather lose to fascists than upset their donors and professional managerial class voter base.
