if you're mad at a trans person for saying they won't vote for Gavin Newsom too damn bad! this is our lives! it's not a purity test when it's our lives. of course we're a one issue voter, it's our lives you could just not nominate Newsom! but everyone knows the risk of that now, you have no excuse

I spent most of today seeking to meet with one of the many victims of ICE raids currently jailed in Downtown LA. While @chrclla.bsky.social focuses its efforts on impact litigation, my team boosts efforts on the ground whenever possible. What I saw speaks to the crisis in LA & beyond.

See Chris Cortez’s portraits and hear directly from incarcerated trans people about what it’s really like to be trans in prison:

Marine veterans are speaking out against the troop deployment in Los Angeles. Across the country, they’re taking down their American flags that have flown in front of their homes for years. Remember, we have friends everywhere.

The FIRST question in 2025 about any new "innovation" has to be "how will fascist billionaires and politicians use this against us." This isn't academic. This is our world.

Socialism is what they called public power. Socialism is what they called social security.    Socialism is what they called the growth of free and independent labor organizations.   Socialism is their name for almost anything that helps all the people. —Harry Truman, 1952

LEFTIST: Dude, you need to grow up and get a hobby. Start treating women like people and find a useful role in society. RIGHT WING INFLUENCER: You’re a pussy. You’re a beta cuck. You’re poor because of the soy in your blood. Suck my dick, simp. YOUNG MAN: the liberals have left me no choice

y’know when you see bad people talk about the “social contagion” of being trans? what they’re talking about is closeted trans people and eggs seeing us out and joyous trans people and knowing they can do it too it’s about wanting us to disappear and we need you to shut that shit down 💫

If you’re wondering why young people are trending right it’s because youth orgs on the left are struggling to keep the lights on meanwhile TurningPoint and Charlie Kirk have enough money to waste on events in schools that vote 80% Democratic.

1/ For ProPublica’s “Life of the Mother” series, winner of the 2025 Pulitzer Prize for public service, we reported on five pregnant women who died after not receiving timely medical care in states with strict abortion bans. These are their stories 🧵

there are trans kids testifying in front of grown ass congresspeople about how they should be allowed to continue their lifesaving medications and being kind and gentle and good despite their trials, so please forgive me if I’m a little impatient with 16 year old cis boys gravitating to Andrew Tate

If transphobia had anything good or worthwhile to offer, then the more responsibility it gained, the better outcomes we would see in the world around us. Instead, transphobia was put in charge of major governments and now the world is falling apart around us as they lethally mismanage all of society

you’ll note from gender critical target selection that they are always ‘saving women’ from some outgroup, whether it’s trans people or immigrants, and never addressing male violence or structural inequality or anything else that might actually threaten the status quo or their position within it

Yall wanna hear something extremely embarrassing? Before Trump’s election, a bunch of academics who lumbered rightward after being criticized by the left (Pinker, Dawkins, Krauss) wrote essays for a book that is coming out in July about the threats to academia from the left. YALL, THE TITLE!!

The hatred against trans women probably makes me as sad as anything else happening in this world. Have never encountered a transphobe who doesn’t also reveal their homophobia and racism with the slightest scratch. Transphobes devote their lives to hatred. My contempt for them is total.

Centrists are beginning to call for an uprising against Donald Trump. Yet they helped create this situation by working to suppress the powerful social movements of the past decade. To involve enough people, any movement against Trump will have to address the material needs of the oppressed.
