We are going to see a state shoot for 25 year old trans bans this year.. and eventually, trans bans for everyone.
We have been saying a slow moving genocide targeted at eliminating transgender people through eliminating gender affirming care is happening.
It continues.
Bigots can invent fantasy scenarios based on fear and hatred, just pissed LGBTQ people exist. Then go out of their way to use gods, courts, politics, public loudness to rally other bigots to shun and persecute us. Without ever having contact with us. Just assholishness and vibes.
I wish we lived in the world The New York Times describes, where being trans is super easy and even cool and health care just falls from the sky. But we live in this one, where we face twice as much poverty, four times as much violence, and most of us who need care can't get it.
I literally can’t WAIT to hear how @myARDOT and @CityLittleRock solved housing insecurity in Little Rock! No doubt it’s good, otherwise this whole eviction ordeal would be outright cruel and borderline homicidal.
@myARDOT@CityLittleRock cool! since you’re essentially evicting and threatening to destroy the only property of this city’s most vulnerable population, I have to assume you’ve put in place some solid housing options as we move into the coldest part of the year.
2 of the 3 named dead so far have been transgender.
Statements like this erase them even in death.
Don't forget about us. We're the ones they are targeting with 250 bills across the country. We're the ones getting front page articles against our medical care on NYT and Reuters.
Violence is rarely understood as a form of censorship, but what are queer people murdered for if not expressing ourselves? What does violence or the threat of it do to our allies if not terrorize them into silence?
