The right to exist is worth fighting over and people should be pissed at her for surrendering on our behalf. Access to bathrooms is fucking important and her statement even manages to make that sound trivial.
All the 4d chess political maneuvers are a poor excuse, I remain disappointed.
You're right of course, but there's a certain segment of the party that's addicted to Losing With Dignity, and is afraid to fight for anything. They'll go as far as to coach you on how brilliant it is to willingly give up your rights and retreat from public existence.
Conversely, taking a stance on that single issue would rule her out of doing any other aspect of her job. You're right, it's important, but more can be achieved by going along with it. If anything, these transphobic fucks might get a reality check when they realise they're sharing a bathroom with a fucking woman.
