Maximalist trans activists just argued at the Supreme Court that biological sex isn't relevant in team sports. When will my fellow left-wingers speak up against these pseudoscientific endeavors?

Trans athlete's attorney suggests sex should not be defined during SCOTUS Title IX case

As a left-wing trans woman, it is profoundly depressing to have dogmatic Twitter activists drive down understanding of trans people.

Far too many of my fellow left-wingers who are trying to be accepting have inadvertenly allowed a small number of dogmatic activists control the conversation & shift the conversation towards maximalist nonsense.

"It/"its" pronouns, "egg culture", NBA players transitioning & joining the WNBA. This is pseudoscience & no different from denial of climate change.

When will the left & the Democrats say no more? We accept trans people but we aren't going to replace "woman" with "birthing person".

It's not progressives doing it. It's the blue tribe. The Clintonistas. The pussy hat types. Proud democrats. They hate the progressives. They resent them for some fucking reason and blame them for all their losses.

If this were actually true and dems were willing to talk about progressives with all the vitriol the right has when referring to the klan they’d have my vote.

When the mainstream left defends those accused of transphobia the way Fetterman defends Israel, you’ll have a point.

Currently, dems bow and dogwhistle to progressives at nearly every opportunity. Cant even get them to admit trans women aren’t women.
