With all the love in the world, I wonder if our cis comrades really know what it means to “show up in any way possible” for trans people right now. Because it’s not just donating to crowdfunders, and it’s not just coming to marches.

In reality trans people trans (cross) imposed sexual barriers upheld as natural by current society routinely. Trans womens and trans mens experiences do not map onto cisgender mens and women's experiences because that crossing makes us both, differently, gender marginalised.

We’re too far into this escalation of state repression for comrades to still be reporting hate crimes to the cops ON DEMOS - it endangers all of your friends.

It’s mad that the SWP have the gall to publish anything on the Black Power movement and Asian antifascism in the 70s. At the time, they refused to meaningfully support the Bradford 12, claiming the Asian Youth Movements were reactionary Black nationalists and being similarly dismissive of UBYL!

Yesterday’s march through central London on International Women’s Day was a beautiful expression of anti-colonial feminism but fuck me the number of kids on bikes and blokes in cars screaming the vilest shit was pretty alarming, the anti-feminist backlash was organic on the streets and that’s fucked

USAID has been responsible for the debt-enforced opening up of markets in the global South from Mandela’s neoliberal turn in South Africa to the “green revolution” of Indian agriculture to Palestinian civil society post-Oslo. Trump is defunding it for racist reasons - still, be careful defending it.

I hope SZA is enjoying her meditation retreat but girl why are you doing promo for a Hindu supremacist just because he’s a brown man with a beard 😭 Sadhguru supported CAA, supports Modi and is part of the soft power matrix that is symbiotic with Hindutva paramillitaries and their political parties

Uncle opposite me on the train has been staring me down, presumably bc of my nails and general fag vibe, so I thought I’d roll a cig and do some direct eye contact in a show of shamelessness like “yeah and what” kinda thing except now uncle is REALLY staring, I may have misanalysed his interest 😭

As a femme who sometimes wears a turban and sometimes a dupatta, the fear of renewed pogroms has seeped into the fabric of daily life in Britain for me. Now, when I see Asians engaging in transphobia, I increasingly feel pity alongside anger, because it represents a staggering misanalysis from them

While Manmohan Singh was by all accounts a man of great personal integrity, it’s deeply jarring seeing how many obituaries fail to recognise that his deregulation of the Indian economy directly enabled the consolidation of a neoliberal Hindutva fascist state. Miss me with that Sikh representation bs

Last night cops in Bristol raided a squat party. Despite all attempts to negotiate with them around 100 cops in full riot gear, with a drone making announcements overhead, smashed through doors and windows, parva-spraying people at random, destroying furniture, and traumatising the residents.

When commentators talk about “the left” failing to make convincing arguments about police abolition, it’s important to remember that abolitionist politics emerge directly out of the experiences of those brutalised by the state, which are theorised and adopted by “the left”, not the other way round.

Clarification for anyone who needs it: Transfeminism isn't just general positive affect towards trans women as a category of human being, nor is it anything that a trans woman happens to say she supports.

It is so important that we continue to speak out about British complicity in genocide, but every time that is the main call to action I want to scream that for many people there are material, tangible actions that we can take that go far beyond speaking up.

I'm still reeling from the fact that people called him "Hamas Crisp Man" because he was sad a Palestinian footballer was killed by Israel in the West Bank. There's a section of UK press opinion that's frankly exited reality and should be summarily ignored.

On this Trans Day of Remembrance, I am thinking once again of Brianna Ghey, murdered last February, and how the very worst thing about it is that all the evidence indicates that her family and friends accepted and affirmed and celebrated her; and it couldn't save her.
