so i guess all the way down here in post 15 my point is maybe: if you’re trans you should come out. yes, even now. you should give transition a try for the sake of your self. and if you already came out, despite ways it’s made life harder (not your fault!) ask yourself: what else am i capable of?

Elon, whose genAI is the world's largest distributor of CSAM, has essentially infinite money to throw at evading any kind of consequences for producing and distributing more CSAM than any human in history.

How the fuck are any of us functional. We’re 1% of the population, give or take, and we have Great Depression employment numbers
But Democrats in Republican-leaning districts are under pressure to respond. One Democratic strategist estimated that fully half of the GOP’s messaging this year has been around transgender issues — about the same time they’ve given the economy, data centers, immigration and crime put together.

Lost in the discourse about where Dems are is the fact Republicans know the anti-trans ads aren't helping them but, as Terry here openly admits, hurting trans people is all they have left. They'd use their dying breath to ruin one more trans kid's life.

Not only is waving away impeachment/investigations for Trump's crimes the wrong thing morally and structurally, it is also telling people their opinion doesn't matter. The public hates Trump and is about to elect a bunch of Dems, and Dems are responding, "we aren't going to do anything with this."

The thing about trying to appeal to right wing bigots is that right wing bigots are all stupid idiots who get 100% of their news from propagandists so they will never actually find out that you were trying to appeal to them in the first place

'attack a minority who typically vote for us, piss off our own base, & just hope we attract more voters across the aisle than we lose' is a risky galaxy-brain tactic to try when there's 'record high fuel prices' sitting right there. but they know this, of course. they simply don't want progress

I would also like for my siblings that live differently, more loudly, more radically than I do to have the same freedoms and rights as I should have. I am not an exception or a model tranny for cohering in the ways I do. There is and should be no “correct” way to “deserve” rights as a trans person

Everyone should read this and then read the 24 consecutive hour timeline meltdowns Stancil, ironic John Brown centrist account and other libs are having about the Talarico interview. Which argument actually motivates you? Which one is going to resonate with regular people? I think it’s pretty clear!
We cannot be the ones to preemptively and
"pragmatically" kick our more vulnerable allies off of the plane. The end result will be having to face the fascists later on anyway but with a significantly diminished coalition. Better to turn around right now to face them with our full complement of fighters.
You say "I am for the dignity and safety and equal rights of trans people everywhere.
Fuck you. The end."
And if they keep with the questions about children's sports the answer is "Who gives a shit?"
"I do not believe you care about this issue.
You are lying. In fact you're a straight up weirdo for fixating on kids' genitals so much. That is odd behavior. Let kids run around with their friends."

The trans rights position is very straightforward: Simply being trans should not exclude you from any part of society. If you can't get behind that, then maybe you really ARE a bigot.

This sort of thing has never convinced any red voters to flip. At best these 20 specific people will vote for him, and even some of them probably won’t, all for the low low cost of alienating every trans person and their allies.

This is the most fucked up and immediately harmful policy decision I think I've ever seen in adult trans healthcare in the UK, and that's saying something. The Welsh Gender Service is one of the best in the country. It is widely praised by the patients it helps. That is why it is being targeted.

whether it ends up being any good or not, warner has staked far too much for this to be anything other than ubiquitous for the next few years. and really, the quality of the show is irrelevant to its primary mechanical function: giving its creator more leverage to wage a campaign of trans genocide

again, these are literally Nazi tactics!! these are Nazis!! and Democrats will say it's too unpopular to speak up against this
Identification

Due in part to the inherent difficulty in identifying transgender people who can pass as their preferred gender, as well as identifying gender non-conforming people who may conform when in public, the Nazi government relied heavily on repor... g by private citizens (often neighbors) to persecute transgender people.[861[87|[67] A widespread belief in Germany at this time held that transgender people were inherently deceitful, as they lived their lives "in disguise", which motivated some Germans to denounce them to the Nazi government.

"Amongst media-aware trans people someone who signed the Harper’s letter is shorthand for this person didn’t give a fuck. This is someone who didn’t care, as fascism rose, whether I lived or died." www.welcometohellworld.com/who-goes-tra...
For trans folks such as myself, the now-infamous Harper’s letter was an obvious anti-trans dogwhistle, and a harbinger of a broader media onslaught to come, signed by a who’s-who of intellectually unserious jerks, many of whom have made it their brand to bully trans people. As trans people (especially in media) we are perpetually aware of our more prominent antagonists.

One thing to keep in mind: Transphobia itself is a delusion. People who’ve fallen for this sort of hateful nonsense aren’t worthy of anyone’s respect, not as intellectuals at least.

On Bluesky, I use an account labeler that warns me when someone was a “Harper’s Signatory.” I admit it always makes me chuckle when I see it pop up. 

Amongst media-aware trans people someone who signed the Harper’s letter is shorthand for this person didn’t give a fuck. This is someone who didn’t care, as fascism rose, whether I lived or died. Who maybe even joined in with the fascists in encouraging my demise. The flames were rising, threatening us, and they eagerly fanned them.

For a trans person such as myself, this assessment regarding who goes transphobe is mostly a matter of safety. Cis people who haven’t yet awoken to what era we are living through, right now, are dangerous — whether they’re merely clueless or actively malicious.
