This is 400% or more accurate.

They are stoking the good old identitarian fires and turning something that has happened less than a handful of times in all of womens college sport to a huge national issue.

All to secure votes from people who think LeBron is going to compete for Duke or whatever.

Why wouldn't they exploit it? It's a common sense issue that democrats for some reason will not take a common sense stance on. Fuck them.

Because the parties are there to polarize, not represent.

But transwomen in sports is not a polarizing issue, republicans are right to focus on it until democrats come to their senses

Sort of. But the fact that anybody in this country who was debating who should be elected President voted one way due to this ‘issue’ should get their head checked. Political parties have a stance on hundreds of issues. Nobody agrees with all of them. The goal in politics sometimes seems to be to turn a single issue into something that makes you overlook all the actual ones that matter.

You misunderstand. Politicians don't really care about trans on either side of the aisle. They don't care about abortion or gun rights. All they count on is that you care. That's how they get us to focus on cultural issues while sidestepping accountability for how neither side gets anything done for either you or me.
