Hey you guys remember that time Donald Trump decided that if you're mentally ill he can send you to a concentration camp and no one will ever see you again. You guys remember that? I'm just thinking about that for no reason.

A fringe group wants the field of psychiatry to regress back to the days when stereotypes and prejudices resulted in mental illness diagnoses for marginalized populations.

In a new reported piece, @evanurquhart.bsky.social examines Genspect's call for the re-psychopathologization of trans identity.

Hate Group Calls for Re-Labeling Transness as Mental Illness — Assigned

A fringe group with no expertise pushes the field of psychiatry to regress to a pre-scientific, prejudice-soaked view of trans people. It coincides with the far-right political agenda.

The way that major healthcare institutions have just decided the rules don't apply when it comes to trans people. Research ethics? Consent? Basic human dignity? Those would just be too inconvenient and it's only a bunch of trannies.

Oslo University Hospital caught using trans patients' journals for research purposes:
- Without the patients' consent to participate in research
- Affecting minors
- 1700 of them
- Taking highly sensitive information from said journals

This is a HUGE breach.

once again i cannot emphasize enough that transphobia is almost entirely an elite panic. the overwhelming majority of people simply do not care—it is media and political elites who are obsessed with us and keep bending over backwards to justify and spread transphobia.

Nicole DeWitt @catastro-v.bsky.social · 16h

the idea that trans rights have swung elections to republicans is a fiction made up by media and political elites (both conservative and liberal) who are personally transphobic and want transphobia to be politically popular so they no longer have to hide how disgusting they think trans people are

"For instance, CNBC found that one Microsoft data center in Illinois received more than $38 million in data center sales tax exemptions but created just 20 permanent jobs."

In race to attract data centers, states can forfeit hundreds of millions of dollars in tax revenue to tech companies

Amazon, Meta and Google are among the beneficiaries of state tax exemptions for data centers that help power AI.

Like, the Oslo University Hospital pediatric gender clinic workers here committed MASS PRIVACY VIOLATIONS for the gender equivalent of trying to debunk evolution with a method that's already repeatedly been shown to be an artifact of selection bias.

"Commit research ethics violations that should end the careers of everyone involved if caught, just to get data for a fucking Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria study, in the CURRENT YEAR" is such profoundly embarrassing scientific misconduct.

Really shows that these are True Believers at work.

From the very beginning, no matter how polite the language to refer to us has become over the years, we are seen as a pathology to curtail, limit, and frankly eliminate entirely if at all possible.

Harms against us are routine because our existence is seen as intolerable by cis society.

Medical institutions treat trans people as a population to surveil, manage, and dissect, rather than as people to assist or treat with basic dignity.
