One of the purest examples of a moral panic in our time. A clinic that had years-long waitlists and required an average of 7 appointments before providing transition care smeared and shut down for being reckless.
a clinic that provided services to 12,000 people being closed on the basis of 8 complaints perfectly captures the nature of the uk 'trans-debate'

One of the most sickening realizations I've ever had came when it hit me that six hundred years from now historians will be writing things like "while technically illegal, intercourse with minors was broadly accepted as normal among the American ruling class, and even a marker of status"

they will never call their healthcare "gender-affirming care," even when they get the same procedures we do, bc it's a demeaning thing to call it and they know that. but of course no terminology is too demeaning for *us*

same thing with "identifies as" language. they KNOW it's demeaning bc they make jokes about it all the time. and even though they like to claim we're all valid or all gender is fake or whatever, they're never going to seriously describe themselves as "identifying" as a man or woman as they do us

gender theory is basically a series of academically sanctioned humiliation rituals to do to trans ppl. it's a way of intellectually codifying that we are beneath them. it claims to disassemble oppressive structures but actually seeks to reassemble them in a way that solidifies cissexism

If you have “sincere concerns” about trans athletes in sports, all it means is that you have given yourself a rationale for your bigotry that you sincerely believe exonerates you for aligning to a far-right tactic for marginalization and exclusion.

second degree murder, and specifically depraved heart murder, wherein the accused doesn't actively plan to kill a specific person or people but acts with callous disregard for human life - like firing a gun into a crowd or driving drunk - should apply to decisions made by CEOs and heads of industry
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

Do you think getting a Na’vi avatar body is cheaper than getting bottom surgery and FFS. Like I bet if you were just like “yes sir general sir I need a female avatar body for uhhh guerrilla warfare reasons” you could get a free cat pussy and just sort of fuck off into the woods to do space peyote

The running theme between the Epstein story, banning trans healthcare for minors, religious homeschooling and the complaints about adult children estranging themselves is a fundamental American belief that children are property with no rights of their own
America is a culture of child abuse. Ask any survivor - we find one another, we form networks and communities.
The true scale of it would stagger and sicken you, and so it is buried, it is swept under the rug, it is denied and the survivors are silenced by whatever means are necessary.

i don’t think everyone needs to like every film but the way people refuse to even take the avatar series seriously in any capacity feels so performative in a way no other series has ever been treated, very odd to me

it's bigotry, yes. but it's also the only way a lot of ppl have heard us described. when this kind of language had a monopoly in media, law, policy etc it makes sense that some ppl might not realize that it is not neutral terminology

HRT is a lifesaving treatment the same way insulin and cancer medications are, and any/all trans people should be deeply suspicious of anyone trying to argue otherwise.

Nothing is a better demonstration of the anti-scientific nature of banning trans women from sports than the fact that the IOC's OWN STUDY found no evidence trans women have any advantage over cis women in sports, but they're planning on going ahead with banning us anyways

i am very exhausted by disinformation about the cost of transition healthcare. it costs less than $100 for 1-2 years of hormones, depending on your exact sourcing. presenting HRT as impossibly expensive and inaccessible to people who need HRT but don't know how is equivalent to medical gatekeeping.

It's incredible just how on the ball trans people were about those US think tanks influencing British politics, going to great length to detail all these links and connections, only for it to fall on deaf ears because of how aggressively trans people were frozen out and disenfranchised.
bittersweet seeing parts of the lethargic british press sluggishly get around to wondering if US far-right religious think tanks are working to influence british politics. they are, yes! it is not secret! do your jobs better!

"Transsexuality is bourgeois" reflects the common belief that medicine, technology, and any improvements to quality of life are owed to capitalism. The reality is that capitalism holds these improvements hostage for the sake of wealth.
