(this is a sarcastic post meant to highlight the absurdity of some of the “greater good” rhetoric we’ve been hearing, especially around leaving vulnerable populations like disabled people behind in case of revolution, basically accelerationism)

So, your argument is that trans people should've shut up?

I see a couple of problems with this:

  1. You don't control trans people. I don't control trans people. The Democratic Party is already on your side here. They apparently didn't think that trans issues were worth pursuing, because they were completely silent on the issue during the 2024 election.

This brings me to my second point:

  1. Where were you seeing these pushy trans people who were demanding their rights? Because I certainly didn't see them.

You know what I did see? Republicans using trans rights as a wedge issue. And you've bought into it. That wedge is still working.
