When you definitely want something to be widely talked about: “The conversation should be led by trans women of color who are Pell Grant recipients who start a business that operates for three years in disadvantaged communities.”
I also doubt the sincerity of “let’s listen to trans women of color on this one.” If they’re serious about that, surely they wouldn’t mind starting with some trans women of color Harris put in men’s prisons.

folks, I might just be a cis white dude, but it does look like trans woc don’t like kamala very much
I don’t trust white people of any stripe (including me) to bring enough nuance.
So why won’t you shut the fuck up?
white people telling white people to stop talking over them is the whitest shit ever lmfao
Can’t wait for some lib in 2023 to be like “all these cis white guy communists are only communists because they dont want black women to have any power.”
I mean, despite her bad takes this election, I think most people here would be happy to give Angela Davis a Guillotine and a license to use it.
Trans women of color
well known for wanting nobody to criticize people who lock them in men’s prisons
Its extremely cool of Sady to give black trans women the entire burden of criticizing the Vice-President, a small and marginalized group verses the second most powerful person the country. Also please don’t listen to the same trans activists when they call on everyone to join them, its simply not our place to criticize the first POC VP.
first POC VP.
On June 1, 1868, 100 Cheyenne warriors invaded the Kaw Reservation. The Kaw men painted their faces, donned regalia, and rode out on horseback to confront the Cheyenne. The rival Indian warriors put on a display of superb horsemanship, accompanied with war cries and volleys of bullets and arrows. Terrified white settlers took refuge in nearby Council Grove. After about four hours, the Cheyenne retired with a few stolen horses and a peace offering of coffee and sugar from the Council Grove merchants. No one had been injured on either side. During the battle, Joe Jim, a Kaw interpreter, galloped 60 miles (97 km) to Topeka to seek assistance from the governor. Riding with Jim was the eight-year-old Charles Curtis, then nicknamed “Indian Charley”.[6]
If you have to do war, this is a pretty good way to do it
Is VP really the second most powerful? I think is might be a case by case basis.
The vice president has only two forms of hard power, they are the tiebreaker for the senate and are first in line to replace the president.
Other than that they have plenty of soft power through their position but unless the president is on their deathbed they aren’t even in contention for second most powerful person in the US.
