I’ve heard all the critiques of this guy and while a lot of them are valid, he’s actually been pretty god damn strong out the gate in terms of actually addressing material conditions and while people should continue to critique him when he says or does anything stupid I gotta say I am impressed so far.
Electoralism is a dead end in terms of actually changing anything, but it’s nice to see the Democrats finally become so discredited that actual socialists are winning elections and throwing their political capital around to help people
It’s a telephone line and “research” (wtf does that even mean, what exactly is being researched?). 15 mill if distributed for surgeries would be like 300 trans people getting help. Better than nothing but I really question the resource allocation here, 15 mill would be better spent on housing for homeless trans people as that is a permanent investment in helping poor trans people, not something that will ultimately just give money to telephone operators and doctors.
