It makes me depressed to read people saying it makes no difference whether Biden or Trump is President, when I know what horrible things Trump is planning to do to women, trans people, queer people in general, immigrants, attempts to combat the climate emergency, and so on. As a trans woman, the consequences for me could be dire.
We have a long way to go to get to the kind of society we want. Not trying means not only not getting closer: it means going in the opposite direction.
