…I could have told you that 🤷

Not my usual kind of source (Xitter), but I want any centrists out there who ask trans people to “just get along” / compromise with actual hate groups that want them eradicated to know that it doesn’t work.

There is no such thing as a reasonable bigot, by definition.

    In a negotiation its important to ask for more than you want. Compromise is what you reach during negotiations. If you start your negotiations from a pre-compromised position, you’re just ceding ground to the other side.

    Support the extremists. Support those who go too far and ask too much, as that’s the only way to reach a fair and reasonable compromise.
