After that though, probably a house in or around Brussels, so I can do legally protected sex work on one hand, and work for the EU-affiliated lobbying group or NGO of my choice on the other And never speak English as a first language ever again À l’enfer les anglos !

We actually do know how to reduce rape. We do it the same way we disincentivize other behaviors: we punish it severely and consistently. The issue is not that we don’t know the solution, but that we lack the will to carry it out.

The key is that all Right Wing outrages are manufactured. Every single one. From trans panic to immigration panic to crying about video games, it's fake from top to bottom. All of them are aware of this and go through the motions solely for the benefit of centrist rubes. Seriously!

The 2010s era of human rights by way of corporate diversity training got many things wrong and did not do enough to interrogate power. However, even that was seen by ruling classes the world over as unacceptable overreach, and they are committed to destroying the possibility of it happening again.

Women’s sexuality breaks cultural containment for *just a handful of years* in the west and all of a sudden you got Hollywood stars chilling with the pope, meanwhile “tradwives” become a thing again I’ll keep doubling down on my own transsexuality though, society needs to be proven wrong

Of course, that upper society has proven itself to be prone to all sorts of crankery But it’s bizarre realizing in real time what my government would look like if it was precise with its anti-trans policies, with the justification of the religion I was raised under

Both Burnham and Phillipson are Catholic … it’s truly a new era of social conservatism in which the British ruling class has entered The American ruling class has become so anti-DEI that its far-right catholics were able to turn *London* into their own socially authoritarian experiment

It also can't understated: many in the WNBA didn't fall for this bullshit and made statements supportive of trans women. The result is this particular flashpoint petering out like a wet fart.
Now, while GUDEA introduced raw data to the conversation, the writing has been on the sports media wall all along. Katie Nolan called out the hypocrisy and manipulation, while several prominent voices saw right through Kanter’s stunt. Even Jesse Watters aired out Fox News for pretending to care about the WNBA.

The best barometer is simple. As the WNBA season draws to a close — the Atlanta Dream and Golden State Valkyries are in the WNBA Finals — watch all those so-called WNBA fans, claiming visceral concern for women and the league, suddenly stop caring about the WNBA and transgender athletes. How can they cosplay without their culture war arena du jour?

Musk's acquisition of Twitter was entirely about appropriating the discursive commons to influence, manipulate and degrade conversations about marginalized demographics. He is explicitly responsible for funding and bolstering far-right narratives, as much as Zuckerberg and figures like Bannon.
Those were real-life consequences. And regardless of Cunningham’s intentions when expressing her opinion about transgender athletes, she opened the door for entities with ulterior motives to take her comments and run — both to cash in personally and to push a harmful agenda to further divide the country.

According to an exclusive report from CT Jones of Rolling Stone, citing the data analytics company GUDEA and its founder, Keith Presley, “there were only a handful of tweets that ever got more than 3,000 retweets” related to the transgender athlete debate engulfing the WNBA.

“If you take out the eight top posts, this [narrative] didn’t happen. Nobody would be talking about this,” Presley said.

GUDEA analyzed 188,631 relevant posts from July 20 to Aug. 12, per Rolling Stone, with nearly 99% of posts living on X and 3.57% falling in the “non-typical” bucket of influencers, pundits, and aggregation accounts.

“Georgia Paul, GUDEA’s head of customer success, tells Rolling Stone that the online conversation’s domination by ‘non-typical’ accounts is important because these individuals have the highest incentive to drive up engagement,” Jones wrote. “Since Elon Musk’s purchase of the platform in 2022, the founder has publicly stated that his goal is to make the app’s algorithm — and people’s feeds — free of political bias and more equitable for conservative posters. Not only can people who pay for premium X subscriptions now make money off of their most popular tweets, but they’re prioritized in comment sections, driving their tweets to the top.”

it's an exterminationist mindset that defines transmisogyny. trans women are not even allowed in the emergency room because someone else might be uncomfortable. fuck you. a trans woman's life are more important than your feelings.

I cannot overemphasize how deeply strange segregating trans people in hospitals looks abroad. While also, of course, not taking it for granted that this ridiculous, unnecessarily discriminatory policy will undoubtedly inspire a push to implement it elsewhere.

Typically true, but the exception is when you have a trans girl who started blockers early enough to pass flawlessly. Jazz Jennings is a painted as a victim of parents who allegedly wanted a girl, because you can’t paint her as a “man”. This is why more early transitioning trans kids terrifies them.

Quick reminder that all the laws that sent gay men to prison for consensual BDSM in the spanner trials are still on the books and the UK state reserves the right to lock you the fuck away for doing sex shit in ways it doesn't like.

UK subjects simply do not have a right to a private life in any meaningful sense because the state here reserves the right to decide for you whether you are being harmed by something you are participating in. This place is a shit hole which would not need to change a single law to go full fash.

I actually think the use of the word “finally” is so telling as to the role our heavily right-wing media plays in our politics. Sources like The Telegraph have been pushing successive governments for trans-exclusionary policy for years. They’ve got what they wanted. This is now their victory lap.

It’s why some of us brought “transsexual” back into popularity. Even though it’s the medicalized term, that’s what’s under threat in this anti-scientific social climate. In America we think of Europe and Asia as having highly invasive medical systems, but our bias goes in the other direction…

Then again, the liberals you describe are also the ones who keep pressuring us to compromise our demands where none is needed. So it’s not like many people take our healthcare seriously to begin with.

It’s so stupid but it’s also stupid in a harmful way. It’s a sabotaging of people’s pride and human rights disguised as fighting the system. “Transmed” is effectively “eek a witch” among trans discourse. It’s why trans women like Brianna Wu make such good effigies for popular transmisogyny.

Who’s been working harder for women’s bodily autonomy? The nonprofits or trans people? It’s trans people and that’s a no-brainer answer, unfortunately much of the former and many medical professionals think we’re too [disable slur]ed and/or infantile to know what’s best for us

I genuinely think cis women and trans men need to start getting over the fact that what we do is “risky” There’s a reason why so many of us DIY: we’re under-dosed and take advantage of underground networks to a degree that abortion seekers have just recently adapted to

Transmedicalism now just means “I want estrogen” I think on the day the NHS mandates trans patients being placed in wards by birth sex we must retire it entirely The problem with trans healthcare everywhere is too much gatekeeping and too few innovations “Transmedicalism” is a misogynist misnomer

In addition to the broader literacy crisis, we're also in a power literacy crisis. Many folks deeply misunderstand how political power works, who has it, and how to build it. And all of that is happening while more folks are using the language of organizing without grasping its most basic tenets.

Women are not bourgeois. The feminine body isn’t something that should be gatekept to the lucky few who can afford it. Anyone who argues otherwise has only one objective: to limit the number of trans women in existence. None of us, not even the comphet transmeds, can tolerate that idea any longer.

Transmedicalism may be the academy’s shoddy nepotism baby for the throne that rightfully belongs to transfeminism, but even the transmeds have the right idea when it comes to the root of our medical discrimination: nobody wants to deem our care as something we actually need.
