That's a horrible misrepresentation of what happened. The issue isn't that there's no "law for gender reassignment surgery to be paid for by the state when people are incarcerated for murder", the issue is that trans prisoners have a law excluding them from receiving healthcare. The state has to pay for the medical care of prisoners. For "some reason" (transphobia) trans people's healthcare is not included in that. Kamala Harris upheld an unjust and transphobic law. "She was just ~~following orders~~ doing her job" isn't the defense you think it is.
Your misrepresentation of the problem is another great example of transphobia. Trans people are asking not to have their medical care excluded. You just think trans medical care isn't necessary but you don't want to say it, so you have to twist the actual problem to make it seem like the trannies are being ridiculous again.
And this is another great example. You don't care about what trans people have to say, you don't want Harris to be better. You want the crazy trannies and commie pinkos to stop whining and vote. You don't want change, you want things to go "back to normal" so you don't have to think about people suffering for the neoliberal regime. Just own it.
