you now know that they are willing to abandon anyone they claim to protect.
I don’t think you feel irony here for anyone who is, say, LGBTQ, PoC, Ukranianian, Female or poor.
You should now know that their words are meaningless
Well… That could immediately be applied to anyone who helps get conservatives elected as well, wouldn’t you say? Only to a much greater degree, since the people hurt are much more numerous.
I am not really abandoning anyone by not voting for her. Though I did, regardless, for my partners sake, not that it made any difference where I am but that’s probably the only reason I felt comfortable doing it. I’m not abandoning anyone because democrats weren’t going to save them. The moment the overton window shifted further right they’d abandon whatever group came next. They were already competing for who can be the most transphobic as far as I am concerned.
The fact that they never codified Roe v. Wade while they had a super majority should have been revealing enough for most people to realize they only value our rights so long as it they can be used as a tool to gain votes but alas
