      I do not trust anyone who celebrates abandoning vulnerable minorities.

      And I do not care if you want to make ableist insults about it.

        Well… Now that it’s so abundantly clear that you’re unwilling to discuss this in good faith, I think my part in this conversation is officially over.

          “Good faith” means I should trust you after you support throwing trans people under the bus.

          Because after all, they’re not netanyahu, so no centrist will ever give a shit about them.
