I had previously been under the impression that in the U.S. the Liberal Democrats keep abandoning trans people. Especially around the 2024 election where they explicitly blamed them for losing the election. Despite the key concern being economic issues.

But It's actually hard for find any evidence for this, I know they haven't accomplished queer goals in the U.S. but I thought there was a more obvious examples of the contradiction for queer people.

Focusing either is a winning strategy. The truth is that Republicans truly suck and people can see that. The problem is that Democrats don't want to have a programme of economic or social justice because they are completely a bourgeois party who exist to ratchet any leftward change.

Establishment Democrats especially look exactly like Republicans right now because of the cropping up of Mamdani-like figures which is forcing the old guard to signal hard their "do nothing but support israel" line so that the identity of the party is not distorted.
