Absolutely fucking not. I'm not here to build socialism that excludes minorities.

Healthcare reform is good for everyone, including trans people. There's nothing exclusionary about being strategic with the arguments you choose to make in support of your goals.

"shut up trans people, now's not the time. After we build this system that explicitly erases your issues we'll reform it. Trust me bro, just help us build this bigoted healthcare bro"

Then of course we need the evangelical vote. So let's maybe pipe down about abortion eh?

We don't progress by leaving people behind. You're simply deepening the deeply entrenched lines of inequality that already exist in society. Oh look, cis males ahead again big surprise.

We don't progress by leaving people behind.

That's exactly what progress entails in politics. It's called compromise. You fix the problems you can and save the rest for later.

Regardless, health care reform does help trans people you're just insisting that the people that hate them stop hating them before you'll work with them to fix a separate problem and that's your choice to make but it means you're going to be waiting a long time to get what you want. If some purity test is more important to you than a chance at actual progress then by all means, keep intentionally reminding bigots that they don't like trans folk. See how that works out for you.
