det er en viss sjanse for at den transfobe mobben som monomant herjer i kommentarfelt, podcaster og stadig sjeldnere i kronikkspalter, (endelig) imploderer. (kontekst: subjekt-redaktør choi er ute med noen ... betraktninger om "pronomenpolitikk"). uffda.

I love teaching my Global Sexual Politics class. This week we have studied and discussed the amazing catalogue - especially the ongoing (since 2006!) "Faces and Phases" series - of South African visual activist, Zanele Muholi.

dette første steget er å tvinge transpersoner tilbake i skapet, det neste vil uunngåelig være å tvinge absolutt alle skeive, og alle som ikke kler seg/oppfører seg på en måte som stemmer over ens med rådende kjønnskonformitet. disse såkalte «LHB uten T» protesterer, men det blir ikke mindre sant

"Carceral politics do not keep us safe. They pit marginalized groups against one another and channel fear into demonization, surveillance, and punishment. What is needed is a vision of safety... creating conditions where safety is possible for all." - @slamble1.bsky.social @literaryhub.bsky.social
A screenshot of a Literary Hub article by S. Lamble. A beige background. The headline reads, "On the carceral ideology underpinning the anti-trans movement." The sub header reads, "S. Lamble explores the influence of safety politics on organized transphobia in the United Kingdom and across the globe." And there is a stock photo of a person holding a sign that reads, "trans rights are human rights."
