Leftists are generally familiar with the concept of "Progressive Except Palestine", sometime shortened to PEP.

I propose an analog: "Leftist Except Disability." or LED, I guess?

“We had to erase trans people or we couldn’t get our federal funding”

Fuck the federal funding. You fight, you sue, you do not become complicit in our mass erasure.

We are all in this together, and we all go down together.

I will not allow us to be jettisoned or erased.
FWIW, the choice was scrubbing their website or potentially closing down because their funding was turned off. Sure they could have sued, but what then?
This is a stunning betrayal by Whitman Walker in DC.

You CANNOT jettison the trans community to protect yourself.

It’s shameful. I got my name changed at WWH. I have promoted their research.

Now they are capitulating to save gay people at trans people’s expense by trying to erase us.

I really hope my friends in the mainstream media will follow this case of clear violation of public information laws by Gov. Hochul's office, which is hiding her schedule during the days when she flip-flopped on congestion pricing: nyc.streetsblog.org/2024/12/16/g...
