@anathema_device @Tengrain Florida has a toxic stew of people who fled the Northeast to avoid taxes, unreconstructed white racists, and a Cuban community made up mostly of the descendants of Batista's supporters. That's not replicable in America proper.

When people say trans rights are a distraction from the fight, I wonder what the hell they think the fight is.

@zleap @jayrosen_nyu Yes, but we didn't want to eliminate them; their existence would be great post hoc evidence showing we'd been right all along. Alas....

@NoahH @thepoliticalcat I know enough LGBT people who were in the fight in the 90s that I feel comfortable with their assessment.

@thepoliticalcat @Npars01 Exactly. Trans rights is not a distraction from "the fight." It is the fight.

@NoahH @thepoliticalcat Clinton has a long and distinguished record of support for LGBT rights.Also, Qaddafi was a brutal thug who personally oversaw terrorist attacks, and he was ultimately killed by his own people. If you want to look at what might have been had he lived, check out Syria.

@DrALJONES @unclepj @pallsopp42 @Bargdaffy Longtermism assumes that one can build a great castle upon an intentionally crumbling foundation. We get a better future thought a better today.
