I think the sycophants cheering these moves on are so interesting. I have absolutely no sense that any of these changes are going to have meaningful positive impacts in my life. "We all benefit" in what sense? Aesthetically? What does USAID have to do with me? What positive impact will I see from banning the X gender marker? How do undocumented migrants affect my life negatively?

it's so easy to be cynical, how do you do it?
I have health issues that I can't get help with because of my insurance, my rent increased significantly last month, and my grocery bills have never been higher. I have real life problems to deal with. The X gender marker does not even register as a problem in my universe. Our government seems to be more concerned with policing 0.5% of the population than with dealing with real life problems. Perhaps that's why?
