It's amazing what society will tolerate when their media constantly tells them a certain class of people are untermensch.

I wrote for @thenation.com about why people need to stop acting as though the dramatically escalating bigotry on display in US politics is just an unserious sideshow.

Wild to me that he can stand up there and do this, proving clear malice, and the courts will just be like "MMmmm...No, they aren't biased against trans people at all. Let them kick the trans people out of the military, while we investigate every other aspect of their lives, criminally. No bias!"

The Trump administration’s threats to defund facilities that treat trans minors is harming intersex youth who also need hormone therapy. rewirenewsgroup.com/... #transgender #trans #LGBTQ #LGBTQIA #intersex

If you see mainstream journalists citing/relying on this prejudicial HHS report attacking virtually the entire medical profession, point them here www.importantcontext.news/p/new-hhs-re...

“The fact that people are multidimensional in their sex-related biological traits means that the binary view of sex is fundamentally misleading. Biological sex has variations and nuances, just as gender does.” People who think “biological” sex is binary are literally deluded.

This is something GC activists are doing a lot, demeaning critics of their movement, while, essentially admitting that those "trolls" were right about the fascism of their movement, so much so that they have lost the energy to be a part of their movement because of it.

Fuck these fucking fucks

It takes an especially dark mind to think of a minority group that experiences elevated levels of sexual violence, framing them as a perpetual "threat" for the crime of existence, but it also shows that even as victims of crimes, trans people are perpetually labeled as unworthy of consideration.

The most on-brand thing for the Billionaire anti-trans mania machine is the state of Washington literally on fire while some absolute monster rams a "genital inspection bill" into the legislature. www.advocate.com/politics/sta... So sad, disgusting, and completely lacking a connection to reality.

An organization that stood up to the Soviet Union, to Guantánamo, to death squads, couldn't withstand one billionaire's private legal war chest and a legal system with no anti-SLAPP protection. The UK is a failing police state ran for the benefit of the wealthy at the expense of scapegoats.

Supporting trans rights does not mean opposing women's rights. Supporting women's rights does not mean opposing trans rights. Please think about whose interests it serves to turn those who should be allies against misogyny and transphobia into each others' enemies instead. #LGBWithTheT #always

Good-faith concern on this issue would be going, "hmm, professional sports leagues should probably have some standards in place to ensure trans competitors aren't getting an unfair advantage," googling for 5 minutes, realizing every sports league already has those standards and dropping it.

“reliable welfare facilities [are] a basic requirement in any civilised society” “…some staff “lack adequate facilities or the time to use them, is unacceptable. This is a matter of human dignity, health, safety and respect to our people.” If only newspapers would say that about trans people.

In New Zealand, the medical board responsible for managing doctors had all of its members removed for "ideology" and now, two political appointees have been made to the board by a Christofascist minister on purely ideological lines. Both have ties to "The Free Speech Union." One is a proud TERF.

I REALLY want the Green Party of NZ to come out with a strong statement outlining how they will reverse these dangerous 'ideological' appointments and make these institutions free of political interference to protect us from these RW christian extremists. Please do it 🙏 #nzpol

It should be emphasized more that obstructing access to medical transition, particularly for adolescents, is about biologically marking people for permanently heightened visibility

Trans/intersex affirming researchers can bring facts, charts, expertise, experience, to the public. The media puts this on equal with a deeply unwell children's author and pretends "A doctor squinted, kinda saw a vagina in 1959, so now you're destined to be a broodmare" is a good way to run society.

Trans women are not men identifying as women. They are women. That fact won't ever change no matter how many times anti-trans actors compel and coerce others to think otherwise.
