A showing of why I've never liked her being the face of trans issues. Never was about helping others for her, just about her.

And no, not because she's supporting a Republican--because she's supporting CRUZ.
 
Democrats are "better" when it comes to social issues? They are the only game in town on social issues. That's like saying a rabbit is better than an angry grizzly bear when it comes to not mauling people to death.

Rich gonna rich I guess.

This is like if I said that David Duke would make a great candidate for president. How can you champion for people that don't even want to recognize you as human?

She's pretty much the LGBT uncle tom.

I guess it doesnt affect her so she's on an "I got mine, fuck yall" thing.

Why is she bringing up socialism, and acting like there wouldn't be jobs or a "vibrant economy" with a democratic president?

And I wasn't aware that she is against same-sex marriage. Oof.

Go away, Caitlyn.


Good luck being a "trans embassador" for a republican

Seriously. lol.

Certainly not a beacon of hope for trans issues... Not when cruz supports and is supported by people who have literally said gay people should be killed.
 
I mean she's less likely to get a legal system that lets the rich get away with negligent manslaughter from Democrats so I get it.

When you're that rich, your vested interests trump everything else. It's all about taxes and money and she more or less said as much.

She's such a hero for rich trans celebrities everywhere

Fixed it up a bit. Let's be frank, she never truly represented the trans community even if she is a transwoman. She never had to deal with transphobia that much with the amount of money she has. She never had to suffer the discrimination in healthcare and services like a majority of transgender people do. She never got beaten up, molested, harassed, or even greatly injured like a lot of trans people do. Her money, connections, and popularity protected her from the majority of shit people like me had and still have to go through.

Bruce Jenner is an idiot.

Let's not do this. As much as I hate her, misgendering and using her previous name is wrong.

As much as I hate to see a trans person do this dont throw yourself out there like that.

Gaf is to good to eat a ban over Jenner being a tool.

I don't understand how calling someone an idiot is ban worthy. The things people say about Ted Cruz and Donald Trump is far worse, and rightfully so.

She's an idiot for sure but misgendering isn't cool.


I don't regret her inspiring me last year, but this stings.

She's an idiot. I mean, you guys remember her "against gay marriage" stance she took on Ellen? Pretty sure she's since changed stances, but how could you be that completely oblivious to the fact that others face similar discrimination to what you go through and be totally fine with it, even in passing?

lol @ the GoP being considered fiscally conservative and better at job creation. loooool

Called her by her previous name, which is in bad taste. Though with her views, I'm not sure if she really deserves that courtesy.
 
Caitlyn Jenner is an idiot and you can make fun of her idiotic beliefs as much as you want. What got people in trouble is making fun of the transgender community instead of making fun of her being a terrible person

See, this is where we run into trouble. People acting like referring to trans people correctly is merely a courtesy, a privilege that can be withdrawn. That's fucked up.
 
She's an idiot and a murderer. I understand why she's so highly regarded in the trans community and progressives in general; I just wish it would've been someone else.

We don't call people of certain races a racial slur when they are idiots, right?

Same logic. Stick to criticizing their views and what they say, but leave the slurs out of it.

Someone is gonna ask Cruz to denounce her for being trans and he will find a way to do it in a politically calculated manner. Disappointing that Caitlyn doesn't have enough respect for so many of the issues affecting people like her.
