it sure is a choice to look at a political landscape in which the government is actively attempting to erase trans people from existence and publish a Singal victory lap in furtherance of that goal

One of the things we’re going to see even more from the NYT as Democrats take back power is a hysterical insistence that they aren’t betraying trans people enough. The editorial leadership is fully brain broken on this and mad that the Democrats aren’t doing a Labour.

The drunk uncle theory. You don’t argue with the casually homophobic uncle at Thanksgiving dinner to change his mind; you argue so that the closeted cousin at the kids table knows there’s safe people and better possibilities out there

I think one of the real challenges in discussing anything to do with trans people is that the media simply cannot accept that the anti-position is entirely eliminationist. There is no way to "exist in public whilst trans" that they will accept, right down to celebrating a doctor quitting.

Some children in Dilley were so distraught they cut themselves or talked about suicide, parents told ProPublica. They said kids lost their appetites after finding worms and mold on their food, had trouble sleeping, and were constantly sick.

To my trans and nonbinary friends, I am so sorry that you have to deal with this hate. And I hope to see us reach the other side of it soon. And, we will reach the other side. This is horrifying, but it is ultimately the latest iteration of a time-worn tale. And their time always comes to an end.

Exactly. A lot of so-called Dem guys are doing this. Big mouths, big platforms, big feelings and still too lazy to look things up or talk to real trans people and families. Joining the “just asking questions” crowd. It demonstrates, frankly, a serious lack of empathy and character.

"I can't believe The New York Times did this" Trans kids? Claudine Gay? Gaza? At some point we have to stop being surprised. The right sees the Times as a vehicle for laundering its conspiracy theories and injecting it into elite America and the Times is very happy to oblige them.

I don’t think anyone is prepared for what they just did w/ ICE. This is not a simple budget increase. It is an explosion - making ICE bigger than the FBI, US Bureau of Prisons, DEA,& others combined. It is setting up to make what’s happening now look like child’s play. And people are disappearing.

Two moments were pivotal when I was a college freshman (2000). 1) We read Gender Outlaw and it was the first time I recognized the fragility of the binary construct 2) A classmate had top surgery, & he talked about how meaningful it was to see the correct gender marker on his hospital wristband

"The only logical consistency that matters is that the trans person loses." That's basically the only logical consistency of the global transphobic project. It could essentially be their motto.

In my years of working with these kids, so often I have been the only adult who listens to them and helps them hold on to hope for transition in adulthood. What I've seen is miles beyond heartbreaking. I have no words for the evil of ghouls who write and publish garbage like this.

The NYT was cited in the Supreme Court ruling used to strip trans people of healthcare. This is EXACTLY WHY the “just asking questions” crowd of centrist edgelord journalists are dangerous. They launder transphobia through faux neutral “debate” and act like it’s intellectual curiosity

Dear Trans Youth, Families, and Community, Now that the initial shock and horror have passed and my hot, angry tears have dried, let’s talk. Today’s Supreme Court ruling in United States  v. Skrmetti, deciding in favor of Tennessee’s ban on gender‑affirming care for youth, is a horrible setback.

Actually it’s a central part of fascism to attack and marginalize genderqueerness. Pretending it’s somehow peripheral to the right’s aims is just your excuse to do nothing about it, and shows you either don’t understand the enemy or do not give a shit about stopping them.

"Some of you may die, but it's a sacrifice we're willing to make." They acknowledge the harms of trans youth being left untreated and then greenlight banning treatment. It's psychotic wanton cruelty.

The federal government imposing a stop work order on Trevor project for the national 988 suicide hotline on the same day that the Supreme Court greenlit a ban on care despite the risk of suicide sends a clear message: The United States government officially wants trans youth to kill themselves.
