“Writing in the Nation, Amy Littlefield and Heron Greenesmith point out how ‘The right is deploying tactics against trans rights that are eerily similar to those mounted against abortion rights over the past five decades.’ It’s the same Republican playbook over and over: claim that attacks on vulnerable people are in their own best interests to distract from the fact that the party has no actual plan to make people’s lives truly better.”
The Republican Party’s latest wave of attacks against anyone who threatens the white supremacist patriarchy is couched in false concern for health and well-being.
