Summary
Donald Trump signed an executive order rolling back transgender and diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) policies, reversing key measures introduced by Joe Biden.
The new order declares the federal government will recognize only two genders and bans agencies from promoting gender transitions.
Federal documents, prisons, and agencies must comply.
Trump also targeted environmental justice grants and diversity training programs.
Civil rights groups condemned the move, pledging legal challenges.
You voted for Trump.
You could have voted for Harris, worked hard to convince others to vote for Harris (who instead chose not to vote), and done everything else in your power to prevent Trump from coming into power. You didn’t. So you voted for Trump. That’s the reality of a two-party system.
No I voted for Claudia de la Cruz
Like I said: Trump.
Again, two-party system. Your implicit vote for Trump didn’t count quite as much as an explicit one would, but you still put your weight behind him.
mental gymnastics
Yes, you are absolutely engaged in them, which is understandable as you don’t want to shoulder the burden of understanding the role of people who voted like you (or didn’t vote) in Trump’s ascension.
It’s a rotten system, it’s going to produce rotten results
Yup, so best to let the fascists take over.
To be clear, I’m not advocating inaction or hopelessness or anything like that. I’m just expressing the sentiment it’s not realistic for a government designed to represent slaveowners to be reformed into working for everyone.
I’d encourage other trans people to join/start local groups and find whatever community you have where you live.
It’s called game theory…omg you people are insufferably stupid!!! The other guy is right. You supported trump by voting 3rd party.
