ABC (Anything But Class) leftists and ABI (Anything But Imperialism) leftists be like.
Trans people are statistically strongly affected by homelessness, poverty, unemployment due to discrimination, lack of access to healthcare etc. and most trans people live in the global south. So to ignore class and imperialism in your advocacy for trans rights means to effectively throw the majority of trans people under the bus.

Didn’t you know western bombs have special software that scans dna for the lgbtq gene and never targets them.

Also, “Hamas kills trans people which is why we should let Israel kill everyone instead, including the trans people.”
So to ignore class and imperialism in your advocacy for trans rights means to effectively throw the majority of trans people under the bus.
I mean… this is literally what the liberals have said they want to do, re: 2024
Democrats Lost Voters on Transgender Rights. Winning Them Back Won’t Be Easy.
The number of policies liberals seem willing to support shrinks with every election cycle as reactionaries in national media flog them for speaking out. Police Brutality in 2014. Health care in 2016. Climate Change in 2018. Student Debt in 2020. Opposition to Genocide in 2022. It seems 2024 was the year we had to stop caring about LGBTQ.
I wonder what we’ll be asked to give up next in our quest to win that “Moderate” voter.
And then they blame everyone else when they lose which their supporters eat up like a starving dog.
There is only one policy liberals support. Genocide.
They cave on everything else.
Democrats: “we got your back trans community!”
Anyone claiming that they will do anything for you based on you being in a specific identity group is using you to enrich and empower themselves. This is ALWAYS true, from Hillary Clinton to Nick Fuentes to Netanyahu to Al Sharpton to Trump. Non-class identity is a scam the rainbow coalition of pedophiles who rule us use to divide us while they ALWAYS have class (and pedophilia) solidarity.
The Problem of Recognition in Transitional States, Or Sympathy for the Monster is an excellent essay on the importance of trans rights and communism.
