Not to mention that even the “socially left” is highly questionable. When I see a leader who’s willing to throw other marginalized groups such as Palestinians, refugees, and BIPOC under the bus, I have no doubt he’d have us LGBTQIA+ people lined up and executed if he thought it would help him win elections. Establishment Democrats are not allies, no matter how many rainbows they project on the White House.
This is a great point. I’ve said you’re either human rights or rights for me and mine, not thee and thine." If you’re pro black but not pro women, pro women but not pro lgbtqia, etc.

Yep, this is how I see it too. Solidarity. If we don’t stand up for each other, then we all fall.
