How much
sawdusttransphobia can you put inrice crispiesa politician before peoplenoticecare enough to complain?Also did he just do the “I have a black friend” thing with his godson? Because it kind of seems like he just did almost exactly that.
Here’s something important for everyone: It’s actually a GOOD thing to be able to change your views when confronted with new evidence. Many of the Nordic countries, Canada and the rest of Europe are putting the brakes on certain gender affirming care up to a certain age and I’m going to guess it’s not just childish discrimination as to the reason they’re doing it.

Yes, it is, but how is that relevant here? What “new evidence” appeared that caused Newsom’s increasing anti-trans rhetoric?
What do you think is the reason several countries are putting the brakes on certain gender affirming care under a certain age?
Wrong .1% issue to care about. Literally there are pedos running the whitehouse committing so many crimes
Newsom isn’t a democratic nominee running against Trump. He’s a Democrat who wants to be chosen over other Democrats to be the 2028 nominee.
Calling out any apparent backsliding or bigotry is relevant, be it transphobia, homophobia, Islamophobia, anti-semitism, sexism, or racism.
It’s not backsliding if he’s always been a bigot.
And frankly, the way he deals with homelessness is bad enough for me to vociferously oppose him.
We need solutions that fix people’s problems, not feeds the prison slave labor industry.
I don’t care about the culture war puppet show. I’ll vote for whoever can get the nazi pedos out of office.
So the blue fascist pedos get elected?
Except his backsliding on liberal issues should be a sign he’s another Manchin, Sinema, or Fetterman and he’ll royally fuck us over when it hurts the most.
OK, well that ain’t Newsom. He may win the primary if we’re unlucky but there’s no way he’s winning the general without turning out the whole Democratic party, and this transphobic nonsense he chose to engage in has made sure that won’t happen.
Fortunately, there’s still plenty of time to rally around a different nominee
From what I see he doesnt appear to be running from the issue. Hes passed a ton of pro trans legislation and it seems he will continue. But the reality is its an 80/20 issue and there is little point in rhetorically fighting on it when you can fight on something better like cost of living or Republican corruption.
It’s not an 80/20 issue, it’s a human rights issue. Just because he’s done some good doesn’t discount his bigoted rhetoric. Fun fact, multiple issues can be addressed at once.
Something can be a human rights issue and an 80/20 issue. He does not have bigoted rhetoric. If you think that then youve been lied to. His rhetoric hasnt shifted from ally to bigoted Its shifted to less focus on putting these issues at the forefront of the campaign because they are not popular issues compared to what he could be talking about.
