Bigots are too big a percentage of your population to ignore
Pretend I’m one of the bigots you dearly love and listen to me.
Bigots only vote for the bigger bigot. If you want to beat nazis by appealing to bigots, you have to be worse than your opponent. You don’t beat nazis by chasing them to the right.
If someone out there hates trans people, you don’t beat them by surrendering trans people to them. That doesn’t convince the bigots, but trans people and their allies notice. All you did is throw away your credibility for nothing. Pick any minority you are willing to abandon for the bigots you prefer in all cases. If you break solidarity with your base, you have no solidarity with your base. Even if you do it one demographic at a time.

Where bigots are welcome, no one else is.
Nah, a lot of people hate oligarchs and hate women and black folks too. Your world view is too black and white.
