One of these parties actively campaigns and passes legislation to block my access to health care and wants to make my existence in public illegal. Their supporters regularly say people like me need to be beat or murdered. I have had this happen in person, to my face, by a family member.
The other party actively tries to block the harmful legislation and passes protections for me. Their supporters are at worse indifferent to my existence but are often supportive of my navigation through my struggles.
To be able to ignore these differences and put words in other other minority's mouths shows an extreme level of privilege.
Whole lotta people shouting over actual marginalised peoples in this thread.......
