This is the sort of messaging I would love to see more of. We aren't going to convince actual Nazis to change their minds but this is the sort of thing that should remind old-school Republicans that anti-trans legislation is anti-freedom legislation.

It's absolutely better than the alternative, but I always feel like that kind of support comes with a caveat or implicit limit. Even in that ad, the narrator still argues for "parent's rights" as an alternative to "big government," rather than emphasizing his parental responsibilities.

I am 100% and unreservedly glad, though, to see that the organization itself is founded by a trans woman (https://www.lib.ncsu.edu/news/main-news/alaina-and-kathy-brennan-kupec-endow-transgender-positive-collection).
