Democratic "Centrists" when a "blue wave" wins: "Sure, gestapo in the streets, gas prices, measles, buying groceries.... all that bad stuff was, ya know...just the backdrop. That didn't sway any voters. No no no. It was you guys following our advice to throw trans people under the bus! Hire us!"

@equality.house.gov It is clear that for this bunch, equality means equality for CIS people and not TRANS people. And folks... that is NOT equality. Democratic Party, Equality caucus, found your new mascot:

Bluesky Warning: It is accepted digital age truth that, no matter what else one believes about them, trans women, honed by decades of internet warfare with the worst people on the planet, are considered the most skilled and deadly shitposters in existence. Do not engage.

Dear fascist fucks: Regardless of how you try, you will never be able to create a legally, factually defensible definition of "Biological sex" that does not include trans people's actual, self-identified gender, AS that sex. I AM a biological woman, and can easily defend this statement as fact.

@repmarcykaptur.bsky.social I am not an "ideology". Trans existence is not an "ideology". That little trans girl wanting to play sports with her friends who you outed... who you HURT with your actions? She is NOT an "ideology". Do you know what IS an ideology? Bigotry. Fascism.

@jamestalarico.bsky.social in this story, James... the person being denied fairness is the trans girl being thrown out of that Circle of Us, by you, who claimed inclusivity and fairness. Have you talked WITH, LISTENED TO any trans girls? You sure are with and listening to the fascists and bigots.

What these organizations are CLEARLY telling us is that they are no longer LGBTQ+... they are only LGB. That is to say... they are institutionally transphobic organizations who just haven't admitted it yet. "Well, there's just not enough of them to matter." aka: Ethically corrupt cowards.

Erin's preface here is one I've been using. If every party abandons us, there's no future in it, and the whole thing is rotten and needs replaced. If what it takes is letting the rot reach all, it'll get replaced sooner, and there's the future for those who follow. No votes for transphobes.

It's pretty bad and getting worse.
Infographic showing the Ten Stages of Genocide, divided into three sections.

Top section

1, Classification: People are divided into “us and them”.

2, Symbolization: People are forced to identify themselves.

3, Discrimination: People begin to face systematic discrimination.

Middle section

4, Dehumanization: People equated with animals, vermin, or diseases.

5, Organization: The government creates specific groups (police/military) to enforce the policies.

6, Polarization: The government broadcasts propaganda to turn the populace against the group.

Bottom section

7, Preparation: Official action to remove/relocate people.

8, Persecution: Beginning of murders, theft of property, trial massacres.

9, Extermination: Wholesale elimination of the group. It is “extermination” and not murder because the people are not considered human.

10, Denial: The government denies that it has committed any crime. 

There is a “we are here” note to the side in red, with a curly brace covering Stages 5-7: Organization, Polarization, and Preparation.
