Trans journalist Erin Reed has published a list of Democratic midterm candidates with anti-trans records, and the question she is forcing is one the party would rather not answer: if trans voters keep rewarding Democrats who harm them, what signal does that send?

    You’re still not going to get more rights by voting red or abstaining. You have allies. Let us help instead of forcing us to dig everyone out of a hole made by right wing fundie Christians

      Nah. I think trans people and our allies should vote against transphobic democrats. If the rest of you democrats are going to throw us under the bus, y’all can come to Hell with us.
