the whole "women's sports exist to protect women from men" framing is hilarious, given that a lot of these divisions were initially formed because men were deeply embarrassed any time a woman beat them at a sport olympic shooting was mixed gender right up until a woman won the gold

Whats worse... A single Democratic loss in a statewide race to a right-wing governor? Or a Democratic Party win in Ohio that uses transphobia to get there, teaching dems across the country that this is a new acceptable tactic? The latter results in no party left to fight for us.

I understand your disappointment but why do you want to undermine the Democrat in this race? You think Ramaswamy will have your back? These purity tests are what gave us trump and his Supreme Court.

And just when you think it can't get worse, an Ohio trans advocate that was going to be at the meeting with Amy Acton over Acton's transphobic remarks says that they are being told it will be with the political director instead. Amy Acton will not attend the meeting. Horrible.

Ohioans are tough. Especially us Trans Buckeyes. Speaking of... I'm one of them. One of the ones that was going to be at a meeting with you on the 28th. That meeting, that you aparently wont be at. Who will be? Your Political Director. Curious... why is that Amy? Oh, excuse me, Dr Acton.

Amy Acton must lose and she must lose so badly that it serves as evidence to kick her and her bigoted, anti democratic cohort out of the party. This kind of behavior should not be tolerated within any chapter of the Democratic party in any state.

The Ohio Democratic party is censoring its own members from criticizing Amy Acton. This even includes the Pride Caucus chair who has to criticize her from their personal capacity. They've threatened to kick caucuses out that formally criticize Acton over her transphobic positions.
