“I don’t think we can’t work together on pronoun politics. This election did not teach you how damaging that is. I don’t think there’s anything that I can tell you,” Carville said on the Politics War Room podcast on Tuesday…Carville’s comments came after he said last week that the Democratic Party needed to distance themselves from identity politics because their first priority should be to win elections.

    Most of them voted with the GOP because they are upset about how the schools are presenting pronoun policy.

    And most of it is complete bullshit. They lie - they say teachers are letting students identify as cats and shit. Or with the sports stuff - the current outrage over a woman who intentionally went to a fencing competition that allowed trans women, so she could cause a scene. Amateur fencing is typically coed anyway - when I took an intro fencing class they paired us with whoever. The same woman had faced a man a few weeks ago even IIRC!

    Then she’s claiming that she was afraid for her life - as if the brutish strength of anyone with an XY chromosome is going to make fencing deadly.

    Democrats don’t give a shit about trans people and haven’t. Fox News and OAN and Alex Jones have Republicans convinced that middle school teachers are doling out puberty blockers.

    I’m sick of this “Democrats are failing because of pronoun politics” because they haven’t done Jack shit for us.
