You cannot seriously be comparing homosexuality to trying overthrow a country.
They’re comparing inhumane treatment from the past to inhumane treatment from the past. Just because something used to be done doesn’t mean it’s acceptable. Also, just because something is better than what used to be done doesn’t mean it’s acceptable.
Justice should be fair. The punishment should not be worse for a trans person. I don’t care what they did, it should be fair.
Consider this rule will also apply to someone who was arrested for something petty, like a drug charge or something. Should they also be tortured by being sent to the wrong prison? This is our chance to fix an issue with the system and maybe get Republicans on our side too. It’s a win-win.
Either we’re better people than then or we’re not. It sounds like you aren’t.
I absolutely am not. I don’t think they should be tortured. I think they should have been executed like a year ago. The torture is a compromise.
It’s also completely insane to compare a drug dealing offense to literal fucking treason, the thing we hang people over.

You keep saying people can’t compare things, yet I’m not. The fact of the matter is the rules apply to everyone. It doesn’t matter what your offense is, it will get the same rule applied. If we make a rule that your prison is determined by your gender at birth, that’s the rule. It doesn’t matter if you commit treason, kill millions of people, or jaywalk. They don’t say the rule should be different based on offense. It’s just the rule. If you think this person should be in a male prison because they committed treason, you’re condemning all trans people to the same fate.
