    These are midterms. Every election is local. Every district has different candidates. Unless you have points about a specific race, you’re not discussing the election, just partisan vibes. FPTP is applied to each individual race, not the aggregate that make up legislatures.

    A transphobe is not on our side regardless of their listed party preference. In my experience, bigots never pick party over prejudice. I live in america and care about my own safety. FPTP is an insidius system that forces us to pick the least bad option.

    I don’t think its a good thing to be accusing other politically engaged trans people of being fascists for making the best choice they are able given the specifics of of their ballot just because it goes against your broad strokes view that ignores them.

    Have some sympathy for your siblings these are bad times for us.
