A common thread between Bari Weiss' career and the trans instructor purged by christofash is liberal gullibility. It was obvious what both were from the start, but instead of their bs just being crushed they were heard out, considered, pondered.

Grow up. This too precious bs gets people killed.

I knew that historians and social science folks from a wide range of backgrounds and views were appalled at how Erika Chenoweth's stuff was recently taken as gospel, but it wasn't until editing this piece that I learned about their appalling views on armed resistance to the nazis. It's bad, y'all.
We're glad this powerful piece is drawing way more attention to how dubious some of these oft-invoked tropes from Chenoweth's writings are.

For example, most folks taking these at face value probably aren't aware that their views on anti-Nazi resistance amid the Holocaust are...not good.

While the government yells baseless accusations about queer people being "groomers," more and more gentry get outed as disgusting, serial child sexual abusers in the Epstein files.

Every accusation is a confession. Never forget that.

Far, far too many liberals (and some leftists): Calling what trans people are facing genocide is an exaggeration that (like every other expression of anger) hurts their cause.

The literal institute set up to study genocide: *ringing alarm bells as hard as they can go* Y'all, it's genocide.

If you've got some coin, toss some in the plate of trans journalists writing trans stories from trans perspectives, because the corporate media sure as fuck isn't going to do it.

Remember, Marsha Blackburn introduced KOSA to “stop the transgender in our culture.”

KOSA is a tool to bludgeon free expression and erase LGTBQ people.
It is not about kids safety at all.

With the end of the year looming, and a lot of healthcare in flux, we're hoping more trans folks become aware of this. Catholic Church-run health systems now have a total trans care ban, and that includes doctor's offices, urgent cares and specialists you may not even know are part of their networks
U.S. Catholic bishops recently banned trans care throughout the church's sprawling healthcare systems.

@davidforbes.bsky.social delves into how this fits the institution's long history of hatred and abuse, a direction that has not changed despite its recent p.r. shifts.

It's time to fight back...

Within living memory queer and trans communities have faced genocides — and defied them. Militant groups like ACT-UP show that organizing and confrontation, not waiting on political elites who don't care about our existence, can win some real victories: transnews.network/p/reagan-era...

if you want the largest "lgbtq advocacy" organization (by far) spending its time on the same exact shit the democratic party spends its time on please at least have the decency to acknowledge that its purpose is to do democratic party advocacy and not lgbtq advocacy

"we need as much support as possible, why not try everything"

because what HRC ($50M/yr btw) and the other nationals have been doing the whole fucking time doesn't fucking work, does it? we have been telling them it doesn't fucking work the whole fucking time. they know it doesn't fucking work.
Making a positive case for trans people should be the primary focus, yes, but for those who lack the imagination to empathise with other people, only stuff like "bathroom bans endanger cis women" will work, and that's sad. But since we need as much support as possible, why not try everything?

Corinne consisently has some of the sharpest, most non-nonsense analysis of the rules and legislation targeting trans communities.
to be clear: no it wouldn't. that is not how this mechanism or federalism works. even under this rule hospitals would remain free to serve trans youth. discrimination in exchange for money is still discrimination. states that prohibit discrimination could and should but won't prosecute collaborators

Despite all the laws and rhetoric and violence, the number of people who identify as trans still continues to increase across the country, every year.

Their attacks are escalating precisely because they are afraid and desperate they have failed so far.
