    The idea that trans people only need trans rights in gender affirming care, legal recognition, non-discrimination in workplaces and housing rentals etc, but not basic human needs like food, housing, general healthcare too is how many liberals have been shirking themselves of social responsibilities by dressing themselves in identity politics.

    ‘I support trans rights but I draw the line at universal access to food, housing, healthcare, and education’ is a denial of basic needs to trans people too. Trans people should be part of the challenges to society because they deserve access to basic human needs just as much as everyone else.
