Between Trump's treatment of women and insults to other groups, and Harris' unwillingness to separate herself from Biden's policies (including genocide), it continues to feel like both candidates are trying to lose.

Its worse than that, though those points are true. Harris has a history of actively promoting hate against trans people, specifically her spearheading the SESTA act which explicitly denies access to hormones to any trans people under arrest. She and Trump never had any business being leaders to begin with. Third party was **always** the only real ethical choice this election.

@freemo @rchusid

The text of SESTA I could find (congress.gov/bill/115th-congre) doesn't seem to have any such effects. Do you have a reference that mentions that effect?

@robryk

Seems you are correct and I mistook the SESTA act for her campaigning to deny trans women gender-afirming care as the attorny general. Her office fought pretty strongly to deny gender-afirming care to trans women in jail, which came to be a big issue at one point. Her office's commentary on the case reinforcing the standpoint.

But you are right it wasnt actually directly in SESTA that I can find, that said i havent had time to go through it all.
