Hi, Jeff,

Just so we don't run into any confusion in future, could you please list the minority groups we are and are not allowed to care about? And the order in which you throw the others under the bus? Thanks awfully.

It cannot be stressed enough that the majority of right wingers that engage in culture war nonsense are people who have PsyOp'd themselves into seeing "pattern recognition" everywhere in the same way that biblical numerologists have a heart attack every time they see the number 666 somewhere.

Hey, because this might be a thing that comes in useful for you later: you're really not very good at this and you leave people feeling mildly bewildered and sorry for you rather than insulted. OK, bye.

Being able to exist in public, having access to medication, not being discriminate against at work: these are not luxury beliefs. They are central rights that allow someone to live. If these are a "nice to have", then to you the lives of trans people are a "nice to have"

Democrats: when you act like trans people who are asking you to protect their right are saying "I want a free pony", what you are saying to trans people is that their rights aren't important to you.

The thing is that even if there weren't queer Palestinians in Gaza who are being killed by the IDF, even if every single individual Palestinian were a raging homophobe or transphobe (they aren't), it still wouldn't be okay to murder them with explosives.

elia ayoub 🌱 @ayoub.bsky.social · 3d

She’s not wrong as Israel would exterminate them just as Israel exterminates everyone.

It’s the same stupid argument for the past decade. These people think that Queer Palestinians don’t exist, that they’re not also being starved to death and bombed from the skies by that genocidal state.

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.

one of my most durable political lessons out of Occupy is: not only is it a bad look to instruct people at protests you are not part what to do based on posts online, it’s bad tactics to order around people with local experience and who are doing countless things you won’t know about from posts
