GAVIN NEWSOM DISMANTLED AN ENCAMPMENT OF HOMELESS PEOPLE WITH HIS BEAR HANDS AND THEN AGREED WITH CHARLIE KIRK THAT TRANS PEOPLE ARE TAKING RIGHTS AWAY FROM EVERYONE ELSE.
That's who you're saying is fighting Trump.
Personally I'll pass.

The WILDEST fucking part is that, if I go back five or six years on a healthy number of Centrists and Dems, I can probably find "#TransRightsAreHumanRights" hashtags on their Twitter profiles, because it was generally popular to support us then
Now, asking to not be eradicated is "purity politics"
Trans people: can we have rights?
GOP: no because you're mentally ill freaks and we want you to die
Centrists: No because I don't want my kids to be trans, and because you asked us we're voting GOP
Democrats: No because asking us is purity politics and that makes fascism your fault, how dare you

"Since Newsom isn't good enough for you, obviously you prefer Trump"
Oh wow it's a shame there's only two elected officials in the whole country. Or was I in a coma when the Democratic primary happened and it's suddenly 2028 now?

Being a clinic escort? Supporting bail funds and mutual aid? Making sure homeless people have shelter and food insecure people have food? Making sure immigrants and trans people have a place to go?
THAT is how you fight fascism.

If you think Gavin Newsom is fighting fascism because his comms people post, but the encampment protesters last year were out of line, or Black Lives Matter protesters went too far, or anti-ICE protesters were wrong because they flew Mexican flags, YOU DON'T KNOW WHAT FIGHTING FASCISM LOOKS LIKE.

NEW: I spoke to SJ Joslin, a park ranger and wildlife biologist who was fired by Yosemite National Park last week for helping to raise a transgender pride flag on the park's iconic El Capitan rock face.
For @nbcnews.com: www.nbcnews.com/feature/nbc-...
Park ranger fired after helping drape a transgender pride flag on Yosemite's El Capitan
The ex-ranger said they plan to fight the decision, citing an executive order issued by President Trump that protects Americans’ free speech rights.

They're correct. Look at Gavin Newsom for instance & where he stands on trans issues. Look at Pete Buttigieg. Trans bigotry is bipartisan.

Bill Kristol has spoken out more for transgender people than like half of the Democratic leadership
“It’s a signal that identity, not ability or achievement, determines who stays in uniform and who gets a fair shot.”
Forget about merit or achievement. The Trump-Hegseth military is all in for identity politics.
