I mean does that also go for supporters of the US and UK? You can support a country without supporting every action they ever took.
Pretty much all leftists I’ve spoken to rightfully calls out the problems AES countries have had with LGBT+ people historically.

I don’t think that logic really works out, considering you’re using Lemmy, and he’s a dev.

Where did that come from?
I don’t support the Nutomic being transphobic and would hope they’re removed.
My argument was that the US and UK also have terrible views on LGBT+ people does your argument also extend to anyone that says they support those countries? Is anyone that supports those countries also not a supporter of trans people?
If you support the US government, then no, you absolutely do not support trans people. The president literally wants to get rid of them all. How is that even a question? The UK just ruled that trans people don’t exist.
But western governments being shitty has nothing to do with the actions of other governments, such as Russia or China. You don’t get to point at the US, and absolve anyone else of the responsibility of their own actions.
My point wasn’t that it absolves anything.
The point I was trying to make is that just because someone makes a point of supporting certain actions a country does (reduction of inequality, public ownership of resources, etc) doesn’t mean they’re endorsing every policy that country has. Especially when they’ve clearly been critical of the stance that country has taken on that issue.

It’s illegal to discriminate against trans people in America, jury nullification aside. It’s more of a UK thing these days.
