“Mercy deaths.” “Special wards.” Nazi medicine cloaked mass murder in euphemisms. The first gas chambers weren’t built at Auschwitz — they were built in hospitals.

immune to self-reflection, immune to empathy, everything that isn't exactly what you want is a trick or an op. nobody else is a good actor. nobody is noble. nobody believes anything that isn't what you believe.

It just takes *so little* to make people fall. Every bribery scandal is over embarrassingly small amounts; love bombing is pathetically crude; the dark patterns that manipulate human psychology are downright simple. Oh, but not you, right? You're special. You *want to be* special, hah.

Michigan lawmakers have introduced a bill prohibiting the any "depiction or description" of trans people or trans existence online, including it in a bill banning "pornographic" material The bill would completely erase trans people online, equating them with porn.

Pet parrots which typically live alone (whilst those in the wild live in large flocks) were given the technology to call each other. They would use it for up to three hours a day, and developed favourite friends 💔 on.ft.com/3K05vhS
When a parrot wanted to connect with a distant friend, a touchscreen showed a selection of other birds available online. The parrots learned to activate the screen, designed specially for them, by touching it gently with their tongues rather than pecking aggressively with their beaks.
"We had 26 birds involved," said Hirskyj-Douglas. "They would use the system up to three hours a day, with each call lasting up to five minutes." The interactions ranged from preening and playing with toys to loud vocal exchanges.
"When we went through the data, we found that most of these parrots had favourite friends," said Hirskyj-Douglas.

There's already a draft policy to create a category of "transgender domestic terrorism" within the Trump administration. They could potentially classify all trans people as domestic extremists and terrorists just as Russia did.
"Text excerpt quoting Sebastian Gorka, deputy assistant to President Donald Trump and senior director for counterterrorism, stating that a new draft U.S. Counterterrorism plan addresses questions about a transgender domestic terrorism classification. The passage notes that the plan, referred to as Trump 2.0’s domestic counterterrorism plan, is being reviewed by cabinet members and principals, including Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth, intelligence officials Tulsi Gabbard, John Radcliffe, Kash Patel, and Trump adviser Stephen Miller."

Everyone asking how this could be consitutional and part of the answer is that SCOTUS in Skrmetti basically made discrimination against trans people legal so long as the pretext is based on diagnosis. So they'll target diagnosis and say it's not based on trans status or sex in court like Skrmetti.

You need to look around and find compassion for those who are stuck in cycles and taking shortcuts. Things only go one way. No one really has options. You may not ever get an opportunity to become a free person. Preemptively forgive yourself in the case that you die before you find your way.
