so suppose you let trump win to spite the dnc. then what? what are you going to tell all the people whose rights are being taken away?
If you had enough people to do the thing, then you would be able to protect members of the group at a local level while national orgs realign and/or get replaced.
But nobody has a large enough group of people to do the thing. In the absence of a large enough group of people to do the thing, voting is a purely personal decision that will not effect the outcome.
"If there were enough people who cared about trans lives to actually change the outcome of the election, you wouldn't need the law to protect them -- you could just make them do it."
Please God tell me I'm misreading this. People in Texas can just get fucked I guess?
