And it's not like healthcare is in limited supply and you have to ration it out to deserving white Christian folk, lest teh gay and brown people take it all.
Misli gammi gra'dil, governor.

That's ALL that matters. Our trans brothers and sisters should be given the same standard of care as the rest of us, without shaming/deadnaming and other affronts to their personhood.
You know, 'When I was ill, you cared for me; when I was hungry, you fed me; when I was in prison, you visited me ...'
Don't fucking tell me your transphobia is because your holy book says so, 'cause 'except for' ain't part of Christ's teachings.
