Rachel Gilmore: One of Canada’s largest newspapers published what read a whole lot like an incitement to violence against NDP Leader Avi Lewis. Yet there continues to be all but radio silence from mainstream Canadian media. thetyee.ca/Opinion/2026...

We still don't name the moral panic over girls/daughters as an act of widespread uncontested misgendering of transgender boys.

These kids were maybe six or seven years old when Trump's "grab 'em by the pussy" remark came to public light. Practically their entire lives have been shaped by public figures openly treating women (and people of color and immigrants) as property. Where do we even start with the deconditioning

Fantastic and heartbreaking piece “James had been expressing the difficulty of capturing trans experience in language that might help cis folks better understand us: “So that people don’t have to be afraid of us and hate us and treat us badly the way they do.””

The acceleration of whatever form of capitalism we are presently in is unstable across industry and it shows. Everybody is in crisis. Nobody is sure what's next because the system itself doesn't have much interest in the needs or aspirations of human beings beyond our tendency to consume.

Goals and ambitions may become impossible to achieve. Timelines and hopes for the future may be derailed. At scale, college sexual abuse is a systemic force to prevent women and marginalized victims from having the same opportunities, health, and happiness as predominantly male perpetrators.

The reason I decided to study campus sexual violence is because universities are gatekeepers of power in society. They choose who will be eligible to make decisions that affect the rest of us.

It's when we start waking up to this eugenicist corruption at the core of our institutions (medical and media) that we may stand a chance, in my view ... This transphobic moral panic is deadly for trans people but it's just a result of the broader information corruption eugenicists often exploit.

It's the realization that this won't just be 5-6 years of our lives that might change with a new political party in charge. It's going to be decades of this to claw back from slowly on the terms that the oppressors set themselves. And a lot of people simply don't want to go through that.

And I think seeing some Dems go from actively avoiding even defending trans people to actively campaigning to make the lives of trans people worse is pushing a lot of people over the edge. It becomes a realization that the current moment isn't an aberration but rather a generational change.

The last 5 years have seen the largest rollback of civil rights of a minority group in modern US history. It's caused a mass internal displacement and refugee crisis that per capita is worse than the great migration in both scope and timescale. It's unprecedented.

So when a Dem says they agree with any of this, they are taking a position that is against what trans people ALREADY HAD just 5 years ago. That's why trans people won't accept it. It's not about progress, it's about preventing a managed decline in civil rights agreed to by Democrats.

Cis people do not understand how much trans people's rights have regressed in just 5 years. 5 years ago, there were none of these restrictions. 19 states banned legal recognition 21 states have bathroom bans 8 states ban gender marker changes on DLs 25 ban gender affirming care for trans youth

Jesus Christ: after a recent ruling by the Eighth Circuit that allowed Act 372 to take effect, an Arkansas county has banned all children from checking out any books in the adult section, bringing home any DVDs, or using the self-checkout kiosk in its public libraries.

More recently in Craighead County — symbolically, at least, Ground Zero for the state’s attack on libraries, thanks to Sen. Dan Sullivan (R-Jonesboro) — the library announced several changes to circulation as it relates to minors. In a Facebook post, the library listed a number of changes to library policies, including:

Minors are prohibited from using the self-checkout kiosks;
Children under 13 years old may only check out materials from the designated children’s collection, while minors age 13-17 can only check out from the children or teen sections;
Minors may not check out DVDs at all; and
Minors are prohibited from entering or purchasing anything from the Friends of the Library Bookstore.
