My brother in christ you are the Mayor of New York City DO SOMETHING ABOUT IT

Moreover, ICE must be destroyed
This is yet another example of a private institution capitulating to the federal government’s assault on transgender rights. In the face of these attacks, New York City will continue to be a refuge for the LGBTQIA+ community.

A brutal attack you say? Beaten up in the tweets you say? Oh gosh how awful
Benjamin Ryan openly admits that his reporting on trans issues is animated by personal bias against someone who was mean to him online. Ben is not capable of reporting on this issue objectively, and yet the New York Times and other outlets repeatedly let him do just that.

The Atlantic is fishing around to write a story about the reaction to the Argument poll. You can be sure that the framing will be "unreasonable trans activists can't handle harsh truths of polling and try to shut down debate which is why they lost public opinion in the first place."

Do not let anyone ever tell you that we can let these fascist gestapo filth get away with their murders and their assaults. Every single one of them, down to desk clerks must be bought to justice
🚨 "She grabbed my tit!" a woman who had been detained by ICE in Portland screamed toward a female ICE agent...

"And you liked it," the ICE agent responded with a grin on her face. "I remember you shivering and crying."

we're gonna need a bigger hell
Like with using children as bait and eating at a restaurant then kidnapping the people who prepared it, ICE is routinely breaking taboos that have been part of human civilization since before recorded history.
Two female ICE agents popped the hood of their car and knocked on the door of a mechanic born in Mexico. He went out to help.

“A bunch of agents jump out and tackle him, essentially restraining him, and take him away...His six kids are now without their father." www.mprnews.org/story/2026/0...

The reality is that we are less successful than the final phases of the queer rights movement because we are operating in a far more and increasingly hostile environment, facing far more money and centralised power, and being more universally sold out. Messaging is just window dressing
Genuinely disconcerted by the degree to which the transfem leftists who stayed on Twitter are pivoting to the centre. I don't think they recognise that they're doing it, at all

The calls for trans people to be quieter as we're wiped out are only going to increase, and you owe it to your sisters and brothers to get louder and louder.

The decline of right wing cultural production is just due to the fact that they don’t like culture, they like the signifiers of culture, ie “classic sculpture means white people are better.” They don’t like art at all except for this purpose. They don’t even like the nerd stuff they whine about

This whole fight over transgender stuff happening on X is so weird to me. The most notable thing about trans issues in the last 5 years has been the enormous, coordinated anti-trans activism campaign across the right, aided by moral cowards in the center.

But that campaign is *never mentioned*.

Labeling is a thing queer folk often avoid because we know how much wrong labels can impact a life.

But it isn’t wrong to call people whose entire career are built around destroying trans rights “anti trans activists.” In fact it’s important to let them not hide as “just a writer/journalist.”

Capitalists dont get excited about technology they are excited about the profits that technology brings. The main group of people that are truly excited about the advancement technology can bring human well being and its capacity to remove or reduce certain difficult tasks are socialists

one reset I'd personally appreciate: behind the insistence that we must offer the electorate a little bigotry is the idea that commoners are more bigoted than the richer and more educated, who can be appealed to with high minded policy. but then you Ctrl+F "phrenology" in the Epstein files
What strikes me is that 'the volk' have incredibly incoherent and everywhere ideas, but the people who claim to speak for them in the press are like clerics who think there are two poles for all politics and everything must fit between them. These poles are like, eight inches apart
