This point, from my recent interview with @perrybaconjr.bsky.social for TNR, is so crucial. Trans people are desperate for relief from the relentless Republican attacks impacting all of us.
When Democrats move right, they signal relief may not be coming, and that engenders a lot of despair.

Holy shit.
Marcy Kaptur becomes the latest Dem to release an anti-trans ad, and its worse than all the rest combined.
"I voted WITH Republicans to keep transgender ideology out of schools, and let me be clear, boys should NOT play in girls sports."
This is getting out of control.

it's two things, to me:
1) trans rights matter because trans people matter and deserve rights, not just because failing to stand for trans rights is a bellwether for inauthentic progressivism more broadly
2) if you can't be trusted on trans rights you can't be trusted on anything

the trial is also just interesting because it is a well documented scientific fact with decades of evidence that
medical institutions are structurally misogynistic
are failing to appropriately treat postpartum depression
are failing to appropriately treat postpartum psychosis

A basic fact about how the right operates is that they take attacks on women's rights, trans people, immigrants and racialized people etc. deathly seriously, while many liberals and even many leftists dismiss them as 'distractions' or 'culture issues'.
Often due to tacit agreement.

The right-wing organizing around the Lindsay Clancy trial is growing and it’s frightening. A lot of people overlook these culture wars revolving around women’s issues, because, well, they’re women’s issues. But the right doesn’t. It’s how they regained such a massive cultural foothold.

I don't know really what it's about, but the cover art struck me and I need audio to drown out my coworkers.
