    They are not allowing that criticism to be reposted:

    After deleting the original statement, we promptly asked about submitting the post for approval through the proper channels so that it could be reposted. At this point, ODP staff informed us that a meeting with Acton was on the table. After thorough discussion, caucus leadership determined this offer aligned with our goal to bring our message directly to her.

        The quote I shared. I’ll try with more emphasis:

        After deleting the original statement, we promptly asked about submitting the post for approval through the proper channels so that it could be reposted. At this point, ODP staff informed us that a meeting with Acton was on the table. After thorough discussion, caucus leadership determined this offer aligned with our goal to bring our message directly to her.

        The meeting with Acton herself is offered and determined to be the best course of action. No mention of resubmitting the post, even though that is what they explicitly asked about.

          So you’re just inferring that they denied the repost, but it’s not actually cited anywhere. Got it.

              Good journalism, I guess? Why are you fighting so hard to defend a deliberately misleading headline…?

                Because it’s accurate, not misleading. They banned that criticism, they are taking an anti-trans stance.

                Trans rights are human rights. Are you a bot? I can’t imagine why else you don’t care about your own rights.

                    They literally restricted a piece of valid criticism from being published.

                    You want to pretend that’s not the same as “banning”? I can’t stop you from being wrong.

                    But I can call you a shithead for supporting it. Shithead.
