Kind of like a foundational defining thing. Two of the foundational things about American history is that we beat the confederates and we beat the Nazis. 1144474529827

So much of what Trump wants to do targeting trans people will depend on cisgender people to enforce his policies and police our bodies and spaces we exist in. So much can be stopped by people refusing to do so. 714128810
Reposted by Queerly BelovedRep. Leigh Finke @leighfinke.bsky.social · 20/01/2025Trans Liberation Now. Trump can sign his orders, they can pass their bills, ban our existence. None of it changes who we are. Being trans is a gift and one I am so grateful to have received. No fascist Trumpist nationalist bullshit will ever change that. Get some rest. Stay safe. Keep fighting. 4632188

Yes it will also be useful to have "friendly" and respectable queers who can do diplomacy and negotiation but those folx will need a stick and we need to be that stick. 2/ 19943162

Queerly Beloved @queerly-beloved.bsky.social · 05/12/2024The struggle for trans rights is an always will be a struggle to allow people to have autonomy over our own bodies. As is the struggle for reproductive rights. Any person cis or trans who values the ability to have autonomy over their own bodies should be paying attention to this struggle. 000

Queerly Beloved @queerly-beloved.bsky.social · 04/12/2024The possibility for regret is a consequence of having freedom of choice. The only way to remove all possibility of regret is to remove all possibility of choice. This is a mask off moment. 010
Queerly Beloved @queerly-beloved.bsky.social · 04/12/2024What about the regret of trans children and adults who regret not being able to transition earlier? It is so plainly discriminatory to deprioritize trans people’s regret over detransitioners regret. 010
Reposted by Queerly BelovedAlejandra Caraballo @esqueer.net · 04/12/2024This should be said everywhere. Allowing discrimination like this against trans people undermines bedrock principles of constitutional rights across the board. 222419661
