whole lot of people reading this as telling them what to think and how to speak, when it's specifically advising *journalists* not to write in such a way that they tell people to believe unsubstantiated or inaccurate claims

It isn't explicit, but we've seen this pattern before. 1) Black Americans are twice as likely to get Alzheimer's 2) Scientists want to study Black communities to figure out why and what insights this has for treatment/cause 3) Trump people cut the program, most likely because they think it's DEI.

Also like, you don't bother defending trans people as the state bullies medical providers into like, abandoning us ... what do you think comes next? Cis people, do you feel *safe* in this scenario? Or are you all so clueless still you think they'll stop there?

The mayor could like, hold a press conference, center trans people and their families, decry NYU's bullshit behavior, but will he bother? Will any cis politicians bother to defend trans kids and their families at any point, or nah? Will you all "leading" just be silent and useless, let this happen?

To explain this for any cis folks who don't get it: New York is one of a handful of states with any actual trans surgical providers left. There are just a few and they're dwindling. The fascists clearly know this. Pt 1: Ending care for "minors" (which they define as up to 19 or even 25 sometimes).

The "centrist" think tank Third Way is looking to pay someone between $140,000 and $150,000 to spend their days trying to dig up dirt on DSA members. They're trying to sell this gig as "anti-extremism" work, which I find completely disgusting.
from job listing:

As the Director of Anti-Extremism, a typical day might include…

Assembling and updating a database of the DSA’s most extreme ideas and statements and a repository of voting records, affiliations, and issue positions to make available to allies and partners;
Leading public opinion research to identify and test the contrasts that move base voters away from these extreme candidates;
Overseeing the development of memos, talking points, rapid response materials, and other products that make the case against these extreme forces in American politics;
Promoting and marketing our research and materials to ensure they reach decisionmakers quickly, repeatedly, and at scale through a coordinated distribution infrastructure;
Recruiting and arming a group of young, diverse spokespeople to fight the DSA from a center-left perspective and assembling a broad coalition of organizational partners to make the case against extremism;
Running an earned media program to create a drumbeat of our message in op-eds, television appearances, podcasts, and traditional and digital media engagement.

The problem is we no longer live in a system that allows people to trust that if a large corporation breaks their word, breaks their contract, or breaks the law, there will be restitution or justice. The balance in power and resources has grown too disparate - so upon what can trust be founded?

I don't think we should mince words. Transphobia and hatred killed May Pollard. The Idaho legislature killed her as surely as if they'd pointed a gun at her head and pulled the trigger. Anti-trans laws were the gun. www.nbcnews.com/news/us-news...

Idaho pushed anti-trans laws for years. Then a teen died.
The life and death of May Pollard, 16, provides a window into the tragic effect that legislation and political rhetoric have had on trans people in America.
