Agreed. I also remember that Nebraska was making headlines recently because one of the representatives’ daughter was trans, so she was refusing to pass any bills that could hurt her child.
this just annoys me that much more. There have been so many cases of direct experience like with relatives moving their opinion (or at least their actions) so its like they can’t adequately evaluate things in the theoretical or just with general compassion and empathy.
Real-talk, the solution here is to encourage more gays/queers/trans folk to run for elected positions of power to better represent their minority.
