    If we want to take care of everyone, then we need to be sure that we actually are taking care of everyone. We have to stand up against persecution and injustice. We have to proactively offer a hand up to those who need it most right now. When people are being oppressed, silence is complicity.

    If you want to sweep issues under the rug when they feel politically inconvenient, then you can’t also say you’re taking care of everyone.

      Literally what I’m saying…

      We’re not, we should be, and that should be priority 1 because everything else is easy.

      You’re so close to understanding this.

        Does taking care of everyone mean saying “sorry you can’t get HRT, it just doesn’t poll well enough”?

          I’m sorry I can’t put this very simple topic in a way you can understand. Hopefully someone else has better luck
