On any of the donation threads where it came up and he replied to it, the most he ever did was some half hearted corporate PR “apology” (ironic)

    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.
