Then I guess that's something you'd get to explain to all the people you'd be hanging out to dry. If I didn't vote for folks based on their worst supporters, I'd have never voted for Clinton either. The TERF anger upon finding out a trans person was in their midst was plenty real too, but they also weren't the whole party. I'd also never have voted for the establishment types who up until very, very recently tended to go soft on gay and trans rights or barter away women's rights, but I weighed my options and did it. Politics isn't about falling in love, right? It's about getting closest to where we want to be. Some of us don't have the luxury of tantrums and purity pony games. For some of us, this really is life or death.

What good faith debate? You just called me almost every name in the book. I thought it was only the Bernie Bros who were abusive.
