Democrats are committed to losing and are turning towards "we gotta be more racist and transphobic".

Seth Moulton also turning on trans people and outright declaring himself transphobic after prior tweets recognising things like Trans Day of Remembrance.

I misread you, then, my sincere apologies. Seeing a lot of defeatism and it frustrates me because that didn't help a single bit in 2016 and only made 2020 worse. I agree on your point about the AFL CIO, which is why I'm fond of PSL, they're very principled domestically, regarding trans rights and on firmly anti-imperialist foreign policy and they're not part of the Washington aligned labor unions. The comrades I look up to the most are engaged in unions and organizing there.
