Log Cabin Republicans, a leading organization for gay conservatives, will no longer advocate for transgender people, a significant break within the LGBTQ movement as the GOP makes opposition to trans rights a political and policy priority.
The influential group added support for transgender issues to its platform more than a decade ago amid growing cultural acceptance. But Log Cabin Republicans President Ross Hemminger told CNN that in recent years his members have grown increasingly uncomfortable with the focuses of the trans community, including gender-affirming care for minors and the participation of trans girls and women in sports.
Every one of them I’ve ever met were rich trust fund kids who just wanted to pull up the ladder behind them.
It was never about advocating for other gay/trans people, they just want to carve out a space where they personally do not have to pay taxes on their third house in p-town.
Log Cabin Fascists.
No need to go after them, the Republicans will do that.
Yup. The Log Cabin Republicans might want to look into the Night of the Long Knives.

Gay conservatives are even more of a token within the Republican Party than black conservatives; I wouldn’t call their influence ‘significant’ beyond trying to drive a wedge in the LGBTQ+ movement.
I once knew a black gay Republican. Sad dude
Edit (20 years ago. Hopefully he woke up)
“I’m on the good ones! I helped MAGA with those evil trans people!” The Log Cabin Republican says as they are being taken to the Death Camps by ICE.
Log Cabin Republicans.
Betraying everyone in the desperate, fleeting hope that big daddy Republicans will give them a few scraps off the table since 1977

“When they came for the trans people I said nothing because I was not trans” said the Log Cabin Republicans
“When they came for the trans people I said nothing because the group i was in was second on the list and they were working on the first group on the list.”
We don’t want these pick-mes associating with us anyway. Go suck the nazi boot you losers.
A Nazi by any other name… is still a worthless Nazi
Up next: Gay advocacy.
“We’ve decided to compromise on the idea that gay people shouldn’t be beaten to death”
"First they came for the transgender community and I said nothing.
Then everything worked out fine and I’ll never have any problems for the rest of my life" - These stupid fucks before they end up in the camps also.
They should change their name to Pink Triangle Republicans
They should change their name to Republicans because there aren’t any modifiers you can put on that to make it better, so they just need to drop them.
If Lindsey graham can do it, so can they.
Okay. Tolerating these people was an ethical struggle for me. Now I can just respect them as much as they respect trans people.
The leopards will feast like kings!
Jews for Hitler
Or like Rohm for Hitler.
