Because they want trans kids dead. Which is why we need to escalate until the NYT is more afraid of the decent people than of their fascist allies.
the parent of a trans kid in missouri begged the new york times not to use an audio clip in The Protocol podcast of a verbal confrontation with professional transphobe Jamie Reed out of fear of safety for her kid and NYT management refused her request.
Always curious to see who gets to be an anonymous source!

T-rump signed an executive order yesterday about South Africa rescinding a previous apartheid era law. He complains about it being unfair to white South African minorities and that it removes equal opportunity for them, while he’s removing equal opportunity for minorities in USA.
He’s racist AF.

good article, it helps to have it broken down like this so we don't expect a response from certain facets which is outside their realm of responsibility.

Here’s a blog post explaining the development of the following chart of chromosomal factors and genes that can lead to a variety of intersex traits. We still need lots of basic research to be done — that may not happen with T-rump or Vance in office. www.scientificamerican.com/blog/sa-visu...

These executive orders on banning federally funded entities from recognizing trans people or disallowing them from using the bathroom are not self-executing or immediately enforceable. They require formal rule making at a minimum. They are a scare tactic. Ignore and do not comply in advance.

We need more people like this Bishop. We need more people who will say it strait to their faces without holding back truth.
Wow. Bishop Mariann Edgar Budde fearlessly calls out Trump and Vance to their faces. This is heroic.

Trump’s anti-trans Executive Order is bad BUT it technically defines everyone as female. It states:
“'Female' means a person belonging, at conception, to the sex that produces the large reproductive cell."
Since all fetuses "at conception" are female, Trump just defined EVERYONE as female.
