For the sake of our democracy and our future, we must get Big Money out of politics.
72% of Jewish Americans disapprove of Trump
Trump has low approval ratings from Reform (14%) and Conservative Jews (24%) and those with no particular denomination*, with only Orthodox (71%) which approves of Trump
Older Jewish Americans are more likely to disapprove of Trump (80% for 70+) than younger Jewish Americans (65% for ages 19-29). Which of you consider who older Jewish Americans were alive to see, that makes sense
However, the numbers for young people are driven mostly by young men, young women disapprove of Trump at significantly higher rates
57% of Jewish Americans oppose Trump's handling of antisemitism, with 50% strongly disapproving, only 30% approve. However this is also one of the only questions with a large number on the middle
71% of Jewish Americans oppose Trump's immigration policies
*Reconstructist Jews either were not included or not split off as a demographic due to small size.

If I'm hypersexual from trauma
Can I still feel a lack of attraction/be asexual?
Yeah, you can definitely be asexual and hypersexual at the same time. Asexual doesn't mean not sexual at all/never engages in any sexual behaviour. Similarly you don't have to experience sexual attraction (or experience it to the same extent as allosexual people do) to be hypersexual, especially since it's often a trauma response.
If you feel like you're not experiencing that full range of sexuality, such as not experiencing sexual attraction (or experiencing it weakly/rarely/etc.) than you can ID as asexual. Simple as that.

If we can't rid the queer community of anti-masculinity, you will always be imposing a level of womanhood on trans men, which is inherently transphobic. A trans man should be able to live his life, embody his own masculinity without being admonished for it by people who claim to be progressive. Degendering us is not a compliment, malgendering us is not gender affirming. Women are not more virtuous than men and that sentiment is misogynistic.
We're men and we deserve basic human respect as any other person should be given. That basic human respect is respecting our identity, realizing your biases and hangups with our identities have nothing to do with us and should not be imposed on us. Imposing biases on others' identities is exactly what conservative bigots do, there is no 'woke' way to do that.

"Do you ever dream of land?" The whale asks the tuna.
"No." Says the tuna, "Do you?"
"I have never seen it." Says the whale, "but deep in my body, I remember it."
"Why do you care," says the tuna, "if you will never see it."
"There are bones in my body built to walk through the forests and the mountains." Says the whale.
"They will disappear." Says the tuna, "one day, your body will forget the forests and the mountains."
"Maybe I don't want to forget," Says the whale, "The forests were once my home."
"I have seen the forests." Whispers the salmon, almost to itself.
"Tell me what you have seen," says the whale.
"The forests spawned me." Says the salmon. "They sent me to the ocean to grow. When I am fat with the bounty of the ocean, I will bring it home."
"Why would the forests seek the bounty of the oceans?" Asks the whale. "They have bounty of their own."
"You forget," says the salmon, "That the oceans were once their home."

If you're going to talk about the Vatican's role in queer oppression by using LGBTGIA+ but only ever talk about how it affects lesbians, gays and trans folks, with a small mention of intersex people, but completely omitting the way the institution of marriage, and thus the conception that only a heteronormative family is to be considered "natural", also oppresses and it's violent towards the aspec community, you're actively deciding to erase us. You can't even pledge ignorance, cuz you're using the full fucking acronym. You know the A doesn't stand for Ally. But obviously you can't be considered one for us.
