It just doesn't feel good looking around at election results knowing that Democrats spent this election cycle deliberately & unnecessarily throwing trans people under the bus.
Like, sure, I voted. I don't want Republicans having any extra power.
But I don't think this "blue wave" is a victory for us.
It feels a lot more like a victory for the people in the Democratic Party who are testing how many people they can afford to sell out.

@artemis@dice.camp I think it's actually really important that the GOP went all in on transphobia and lost. As a political tactic, publicly attacking us doesn't work. They need to find something else. I don't think democrats care, TBH. They just got convinced by Fox News that women's sports was an issue they should have something to say about. If we can go back to the people in power mostly not caring about us, we can start slowly making progress again.
