trouble there is this Labour gov never actually tried to "beat" Reform..they SPRINTED as fast and far to rw as poss on all sorts of issues but esp human rights esp trans. imo it's way too much benefit of doubt in suggesting Labour for even 1 sec ever truly wanted to "beat" rather than join/BE reform
Life is too short to waste

"disappointment" is far too kind lol..more like treasonous level of betrayal after outright lying about intentions. nobody should ever trust Labour again on literally anything after this imo
-
UK is so fucking f-ed given fact the choice is between Labour and Reform..fact UK can have 14 GD yrs of disastrous RW tory rule, then get RW labour GOV, and NOW UK populace wants to move even MORE RW? clearly UK and USA are in competition for who can become dumbest most fascist-leaning nation first
-
imo only possible conversation to be had around the shooter being trans, if we were to assume that had anything to do with it, concerns how MOST trans suicidality and any hatred they develop for society/religion etc is due to how they are treated by said society, NOT inherent to trans identity.
-
only relevance I can think if actually anything to do with being trans (and absolutely no way to justify atrocity as this) is when a society drives people to point of existential crisis as trans are, some will break. right now, whole USA is being driven to the edge. prob is what ppl view as the prob
-
sad bit is it's so obvious if anything drives trans people to becoming suicidal and have deep hatred for society it's the way society treats them, not mere fact of being trans. 2 trans mass shooters EVER trans and now ALL trans need detained? this is genocidal rhetoric and pre-WWII level propaganda
-
if this had anything to do with being trans on any level, it is because society treats trans so horribly it can push them to give up on life and develop hate for the world..not at all inherent to being trans. by your own post clearly a goal is eradication, putting trans in existential crisis. STOP!
-
no..dems are being given clear warning: nominate who won't alienate LW base..and those in center don't vote on trans issues..notice dems paid NO political price stopping fed anti-trans bills? but they WILL lose more LW base by abandoning trans (which also abandons facts/truth). THAT will elect a rep
-
ppl can't change chromosomes, which is irrelevant given vast variance/DSD etc and also can't alone define sex. Also inability to change chrom/sex by your subjective standards does NOT invalidate trans identity and ZERO reason all society needs based around BS undefined "bio sex" VS how ppl live life
-
problem is that person is right..RW/GOP specifically chose sports as a wedge issue to set up the groundwork to entirely eradicate trans identity from society. it's working. They then went on a yrs long billion dollar anti-trans crusade spreading nonstop lies ignorant ppl like you would eat right up
