Earlier this week at a private hacker event one of the speakers asked me why trans women are so overrepresented in cybersecurity. I said, "hacking isn't just about breaking in to systems. It's also about breaking out of them. And the trans people still alive today have been doing that since birth."

Also. It is good to have boundaries between your work and professional life because the job bleed is real (not just SW) and then suddenly you're staring down the barrel of burnout. It's awful.

I mean its a little fuxking weird that the feminist concept of gender equity and abolishing the patriarchy goes smooth tf out the window when its time to call cops- many of whom are violent men with guns and qualified immunity- to put a whore in her place.

Police raids harm victims of sex trafficking more than they help. Sex work should be decriminalized. The Nordic model doesn't work.

Honestly I am not surprised that a major backer of FOSTA/SESTA and allegedly a notable voice in anti-sex-work decrim is now selling trans people down the river. We must obliterate this bitch harder than Newsom. In fact I'd say that Newsom is marginally better than her because at least he can win

Mainstream anti-trafficking groups are rebranding to distance themselves from over-the-top marketing that’s common in public campaigns—but they’re still selling the same product. LEARN MORE: www.instagram.com/p/DUqspjfDzX...
Graphic with light blue sky background, and fluffy white clouds. Title text reads: Same bulls*!t, new label! A teal-coloured can with a wavy white and gold line, the label reads: Anti-trafficking Cola, refreshingly carceral. White, spiky text box reads: Now with less overt racism, no added anti-sex work rhetoric, but the same moral panic, white saviorism and overblown stats you love! Body text describes how mainstream anti-trafficking groups are rebranding to distance themselves from sensational public messaging, but they’re still selling the same product.

Today is International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers. We honour all sex workers who have been murdered or have died as a result of criminalisation, stigma, and discrimination. Read our briefing papers at linktr.ee/scarlet_alliance
A black image with bold red and white text shown diagonally. The white text highlights the words End Violence Now. The 
Scarlet Alliance logo is a red umbrella with white text and it is in the bottom right hand corner.


Today is International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers. We honour all sex workers who have been subjected to violence, murdered or died as a result of criminalisation, stigma, and discrimination. These acts of violence are hate crimes. 
We honour them by:
fighting policy failures
challenging all unjust laws
exposing the violent actions of governments
maintaining the legacy of community-led activism built around the peers we have lost,
campaigning to end the violence of Border Force against Asian migrant sex workers. Strength and solidarity from Respect Inc, SWOP NT, SIN, SWOP NSW, Magenta, SWEAR, SWOP ACT, Scarlet Alliance, Touching Base, ATSISWAG and AMSWAG
State violence actively harms sex workers.Criminalisation of our work creates barriers to justice and impunity for offenders committing violence against us.
Border Force raids cause profound and lasting trauma for sex workers, workplaces, and communities. Racial profiling of Asian migrant sex workers at the border results in immigration detention. It exposes migrant sex workers, particularly trans women, to significant risks of physical and sexual violence, including denial of medical care and deportation to danger.
Street-based sex workers in every jurisdiction except NT and QLD continue to face arrest and ‘move-on’ notices. Working privately with a friend for safety and support is still criminalised in the ACT, SA and WA.
We cannot end this violence without dismantling colonialism, racism, transphobia, homophobia, ableism, and patriarchy, and ending poverty and the criminalisation of drugs.

On this International Day to End Violence Against Sex Workers I'd like to remind everyone that the root of the violence is racism, classism, misogyny, transphobia, and homophobia. Violence against sex workers is a many-headed hydra.

Sex workers exist at the intersection of women living in poverty, trans and LGBTQI+ people, single mothers, migrants, undocumented people, people in addiction, homeless people and those in insecure housing, disabled people and people with mental health issues.
