There's no fighting the fascist takeover of this website. It's top down. The only way to win is to stop providing content and cover. Forget this place. It's Gettr now

@wesyang@GnaniAlan@benryanwriter@mattyglesias NB and trans are extremely different things, guy who is way too invested in the topic. If a girl is uncomfortable being forced into a typical gender role she/they might declare NB for a time so they can sort it out on their terms. Let kids be kids

It has to stop. Now.
If your gay friend turns to you and says, "I would have been transed if I was born 20 years later!" you don't announce their ignorance to the world as if it's some sort of brilliant thought, you introduce them to some trans kids and their families, so they can learn the truth.
The story isn't particularly complicated. There's a far-right effort to create a moral panic around these children, and then there's a bunch of collaborators in the mainstream who are constantly willing to elevate those far-right claims as part of some kind of posturing exercise.
