It seems transgender people have become scapegoats for some on the right. Some of these same right-wingers proudly fly the Gadsen “Don’t tread on me flag,” which is about respecting their liberties, so why is it okay for them to not let trans people be who they are? I like this cartoon because I feel strongly that we should be kind and accept that we are all unique. Also, I feel like I accomplished something drawing a cartoon with few words.
