    I knew a trans woman who did almost fifteen years ago, she was part of the local trans support group. I haven’t kept in touch, and someone warned me not to talk politics with her the first time I met her, so I don’t really know specifics on her views. Even back then the leopards kept eating her face in the most tragic ways. I’m sure she was more of a fiscal conservative, but I wouldn’t be surprised if she drank the Trump flavor aid.

      I feel like fiscal conservatives are even worse. Human rights are not worth looking into because you care about money? Eat all the shit.

        Depends which one is a more fundamental belief. If you are willing to vote for socially liberal agenda despite being a (horribly misguided) fiscal conservative then that’s a disagreement and something we can work through. If you are willing to vote for a fiscal conservative agenda (republicans) despite being a social liberal, yeah, you clearly have terrible and selfish priorities.

      Average “support group” enjoyer I guess. That’s wild those were a thing back then though, it must be the Facebook audience correlation.
