I traced $2B in grants and 45 states' lobbying behind age‑verification bills

Thats the problem. Even the democrats have sold transfolk off as well. Many of them have backed anti-trans bills across the country.

For them it was sniffing like a hound for easy votes. And when it didn't pan out, you all get sold down the river.

Even the "Progressives" like Sanders and AOC dont shake certain trees. Like when's the last time Sanders or AOC denounced Israel's genocide.

Even Mamdani basically did a 180 on rent control.

Republicans would heartily see you shoved in a chipper shredder. Democrats would shove you in a chipper shredder owned by a BIPOC woman owned company.

These so-called "anti-trans bills" are typically either reasserting boundaries around female-only spaces, or protecting children from iatrogenic harm. Nothing wrong with either, and plenty of Democrats are going to support this.
