If you're a Dem who thinks you'll gain something by going anti-trans, look at Gallup's "most important problem" and Fox News' "most important issue" polling and see where trans issues rank. Whoever told you going anti-trans is a savvy or necessary move spends too much time on X and should be fired.
Gallup polling. "LGBTQ rights" moves between 0 and 1%.Fox news polling. Wokeness/transgender issues at 0%.

i need white neurodivergent folks (and yes i am singling out the whites because it is ALWAYS y'all) to understand that discomfort is not oppression, and using the language of social justice in service of censorship is fascist behavior. you might not think that's what you're doing, but it is!

Dolly Parton's passing is effortlessly proving that if you spend your life being nice and kind and generous instead of mean and cruel and selfish, then apologists for mean cruel selfish bullies won't have to go around scolding people for cheering when you die, because there will be no cheering.

This is what the growth of surveillance is going to bring. Not safety from crime, but new, non-criminal acts redefined as criminal so as to give the police an excuse to exercise power. local12.com/news/offbeat...

If you have seen the articles about police abusing Flock cameras and LPRs to stalk exes, love interests, and women in general and you're alarmed/terrified? Take a moment and think about what cops are able to do to sex workers by using those cameras.

Will almost guarantee this was trained on the faith-based anti-sex work guidance. The hotels, the banks, the odd hour surveillance. Same flags used to systematically purge sex workers from the financial system. Would not be surprised if women traveling alone are their own surveillance prompt.

I've never seen such an effort to censor a document as I have the Amnesty International report on gender critical groups because of JK Rowling. They removed the report from the Wayback Machine and now I got a DMCA strike on my Google Drive for having it. It was deleted and removed from my account.
A screenshot of an email viewed in dark mode with the subject line "Google DMCA Violation." The email from Google informs the recipient that they have received a notification under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) that some of their materials allegedly infringe on copyrights. It explains the removal process, mentions that notice details will be posted on Lumen, warns against repeated violations, and lists one affected Google Drive URL at the bottomA nearly identical mobile browser screenshot of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine. It shows a search for the same Amnesty International UK resources URL, resulting in the same message: "This URL has been excluded from the Wayback Machine."A mobile browser screenshot of the Internet Archive's Wayback Machine.

NEW: Flock has said for years that its cameras "cannot track individuals." We found the code for its new AI tool. It's preloaded w/ prompts like "Find me witness" & "find relatives." One tracks visitors of multiple hotels, another if you visit banks after midnight. www.wired.com/story/flock-...

DHS and ICE are pushing a bill, known as CORCA, to spy on all of us at malls and grocery stores nationwide. It's being sold as a way to stop shoplifting, but instead of making our neighborhoods safer it would be a massive expansion of the surveillance state. It must be stopped.

There is no rational reason for opposing the 4-day work week unless your explicit goal is to increase or at least maintain the level of human suffering. It can only be rooted in a dogmatic belief that humans "deserve" to have to work 5 days a week, even if it makes us unhappy and less efficient.
