@mrhndrsn@PamelaHensley22 Everyone writes of them in one guise or another. It is simply a question of which side one takes and what approach one follows.
@elonmusk This is why I’m a largely absent father who had one of the mothers of his children have to literally beg him over Twitter after their child was having a health episode.
@BriannaWu So then why did people bully trans people when they were less visible. People made literally the same arguments about being gay and that was also to force gay people into the closet.
@TravelFda@jk_rowling@theglassfish13 Even if you are to ignore the dehumanising, this explicitly forces them to either legally detransition, basically commit fraud or lose access to a passport. Taking documentation of a minority group never precedes good things happening for this group. It’s genocidal rhetoric.
@TravelFda@jk_rowling@theglassfish13 These laws also have effects such as banning any person who changes their name for any reason to lose access to these services. For example this also extends to impacting intersex individuals who are often wrongly classified after birth.
@jk_rowling@theglassfish13 Currently in the US trans people are having their passports taken because it conflicts with the sex on their birth certificate. This is an attempt to unperson them and legally remove them from public life.
@ianharber For one Tolkien is dead, for another throughout his life in spite of being a British nationalist he was also militantly anti fascist and unusually for the period and class of the writer was extremely opposed to antisemitism. He was just a cool guy.
@jk_rowling@SkyNews Almost like the person speaking received an inordinate amount of abuse which you help facilitate. Sky also isn’t a woke institution or whatever, they just think it’s bad optics to have people being freaks in the comments.
