This is eminently reasonable, extremely well-argued, and essential reading. Erin is correct about all of this, and it is doubly urgent given what we've seen in the UK. 2026 is the time to correct the Dems about this. 2028 may be too late.

The elections are on next Tuesday, and so much is at stake, including the soul of the Democratic Party when it comes to transgender people. I am asking you to leave a very small number of races blank in which a Democrat has embraced extreme anti-trans hate. I make my case here.

There are some people who claim "oh, Dems in blue states will never shift towards enacting anti-trans policy" Meanwhile Colorado is literally enacting a medical detransition protocol for trans youth on medicaid.

Erin Reed@erininthemorning.com

Rather than cover the cost of gender affirming care for trans youth under medicaid, Colorado is voluntarily enacting the republican "taper and detransition" policy for youth on medicaid and dropping coverage. WTF.

my nuclear-grade online gambling hot take that’s sure to get me cancelled until kingdom come is that refusing to use online gambling at all is rapidly becoming an extremely privileged lifestyle choice that feels social justice-y while actually being the complete opposite

erininthemorning.comDon’t Vote For The Worst Anti-Trans DemocratsThe Democratic Party should, and likely will, win big in the midterms. We must not send the worst anti-trans voices to join them.

Hi. I, a trans woman, am the Executive Producer of this show. I wrote the question. He called trans girls men. He has now said it in three different places in the past week.

Josh Turek of Iowa, Democrat, comes out with one of the worst anti-trans ads yet. Not only is it an anti-sports ad, it proposes a ban on federal funding for gender affirming care. That would hit all medicaid and medicare patients, and any ACA federally-subsidized plans as well. Horrific.

Lime reposted

There are people, even some trans people, who think that we can give up sports to appease bigots. That if we give up on sports, this all goes away. That is a lie. I have reported on this for years, and EVERY state that passed a sports ban as a moderate compromise has gone on to pass worse.

Please mass report the transphobe to the Police. You can do it annoymously. Yes the Police won't do anything. By reporting we will at least have evidence that they did nothing.

Sophie Molly@sophiemolly.co.uk

Hello Police. Can you arrest this person for threatening a trans woman please. Remember when you arrested a trans woman for posting about a dead person. Well this person is alive.

Avi Lewis: "The entire process was unnecessary. Nobody asked for it. Danielle Smith's career has been defined by a slow walk towards separation. All of the questions are designed to stoke division in Alberta, and she is the one who is responsible for that."

Imagine if “families with concerns” had a say over whether a woman can have an abortion! If you remove bodily autonomy from trans people, whose bodily autonomy is next??? Trans rights are human rights. If trans people’s human rights are removed, everyone’s human rights are under threat!

do think there's a danger of looking at extremely cool shit like a car driving upside down then doing a kickflip before landing, and convincing yourself it's actually lame because the guy funding it is a white supremacist

OK, there is something very, very weird going on in the press right now. It certainly appears, from the outside, as if certain people are being very much protected in a way that was not afforded to certain other people! Let's start with the facts around Lola Salem... 🧵1/

Two months ago I reported on Amy Acton’s anti-trans turn and fears Dems would go the way of Labour. Some mocked me for it. Now that list is up to 28 major dem elected officials and entire state governments.

Why does Premier Wab Kinew think the right to choose is an acceptable debate topic? Abortion is not a hot button issue. It's a human right. Embracing anti-choice ideology in our institutions harms women & people who can get pregnant. Debating bodily autonomy is political violence. @ndp.ca

Arrête Mark Carney ⚜️@lalegault.bsky.social

Is the #NDP going to address how Wab Kinew recommended opening up the abortion debate or no? #cdnpoli @abortionrightscan.bsky.social

Hey, Liberal voters in Canada. Is this what you voted for when you voted for Carney? I definitely didn't. Carney lied to us all. He's doing to Canada what Harper failed to do. He's Harper 2.0. To appoint this person as a JUDGE of all things tells you who Carney is. STOP CARNEY.

Orlagh O’Kelly@orlaghokelly.bsky.social

Carney just appointed Danielle Smith's top justice official, who oversaw the 4x use of the notwithstanding and anti trans laws. The discrimination of kids with disabilities. The americanization of election laws etc etc etc. www.canada.ca/en/departmen...

In federally regulated workplaces, 95% of collective agreements are reached without labour disruption. This means that for most workplaces, relationships are healthy and maintained well between collective agreements.

I got an email the other morning telling me "your reports are now being muted" for reporting hate speech. Apparently they think that's offensive and it said if I didn't stop reporting I would be suspended for platform manipulation. I was reporting hate speech suggesting trans people should die. 🤷

Here’s the bigger ask I mentioned: I owe $6k in back rent. I’ve been selling my limited belongings to reduce the number but it is slow going and I can’t hope to cover it all, especially not in the short time I have. I have enough to cover October rent and little more. More details below.

Hey everyone. Things have been tough around here and they are about to get worse. I’ll probably need to make a bigger ask soon, but right now I’m asking for some help covering essentials. Next post has what I’m trying to cover. PP: @StellaSacco CA: $sacc No Venmo

Today is why I keep saying that if we keep being held hostage by the "Vote Blue No Matter Who" we will be stuck in this endless cycle of pain forever. Democratic Establishment has us in a headlock. It's them or fascists. But we all deserve better than both. We need fighters for transformation.

A man replied to this saying in earnest that women need to get organized and fight for our rights and men will follow. We did that. We do that. We mobilized the largest single day protest in global history on every continent and yet I have fewer rights than my mom did at my age.

I literally don’t know a single woman who hasn’t been raped, stalked, groped, harassed, or sexually violated in some way at some point in their life. If you choose to doubt and dox survivors, just know every woman in your life is disgusted by you.

If attendance at a major women's conference was down 80% due to a boycott fighting against trans *inclusion*, it would be all over the Times, Telegraph, Mail etc. This last weekend, attendance at a major women's conference was down 80% due to a boycott fighting against trans *exclusion*. Crickets.
