So we just have to keep ceding human rights to fascists until the marginally less fascist party wins?

    In the american system, yes. Do that and pray it works out, since the only other option you have is get one of those bajillion guns and do a revolution thingy.

    Far easier to complain that the situation isn't perfect on the internet than either of those, hence their and others' constant droning on about it.

    As a bonus, it's exactly what someone trying to ruin our democracy would say. Funny that there's no shortage of those on the internet, a place where it's much harder to tell that you're a Russian bot.


    Edit to add:


    As the votes come in to indicate most people are misinterpreting this comment, it's now more of a writer issue than a reader issue. I'll clarify:

    The constant droning I was referring to above is the voter apathy encouraging "Democrats suck too, therefore I'm not voting for them either," not the valid complaints that Democrats aren't doing enough for trans people.

    Trans people are not Russian bots because we care about our rights being stripped or being insulted to our faces by our representatives.

    It’s gone from restrooms and sports to denying federal funding for our healthcare. Each one of these concessions to anti-trans Dems has only seen escalation in their attacks on us.

    That is absolutely not what I was saying, and I recommend you re-read it.
