there's a really easy way to avoid this (politics that properly grasps all women and trans+nonbinary people will in some way experience misogyny in a patriarchal society full-stop and without conditions even if it's not identical)

bizarre phenom. of the late-2010s and going into 2020s attempt to constantly square a sex/gender distinction with excluding trans women & intersex people from talks about misogyny is that people have started treating "AFAB" as its own gender category. MtAFAB and FtAFAB transition will happen soon

I guess it really is a hassle when you say "and she disrespects actual victims of incest with her fetishizing" and I respond with "but I am a victim myself." It just throws a wrench in the works.

I mean, I know why, empathy is inconvenient. You HATE the mandatory qualifications you have to give, the "oh of course it's awful that she went through that, but-" performance, because then you begin to see me as someone capable of being hurt and it disgusts you. It's easier if I'm lying, isn't it.

The figures here also show that 7% of all child suicides were trans children. That compares with trans children making up only 1% of the population.
Trans kids are seven times as likely to die by suicide as cis kids and all this government can do is make things worse and cover these figures up.

It’s a known thing (even in queer circles tbh) where trans women get cast as somehow inherently predatory for their connection to an imagined cis-maleness but actual cis men are never tarred with that accusation. So yeah i think you’re onto something. We’re made to be the sin eaters for Gender

Ain’t I been telling you the reactionary backlash was driven by the very rich and powerful watching regular people use social media to accuse Harvey Weinstein of sex crimes, then watching him dragged sobbing to jail, unprotected by his enormous wealth?

34,000 signing up for this work AFTER seeing their fellow citizens gunned down by federal thugs in cold blood? I'm chugging whatever the opposite of doomerism is
More than 34,000 Minnesotans signed up to be trained as ICED observers with various activist groups in recent weeks, many of them since Jan. 7, when a federal agent shot and killed Renée Good.
Thousands of new ICE watchers hit the streets after two killings
Minnesotans outraged by the killings of Renée Good and Alex Pretti have signed up in large numbers to monitor and protest ICE with other activists.

Bovino is literally walking around dressing himself like a Nazi, of course we should look to *his* inspiration for what the fuck he is up to.
Is it his only inspiration? No. It’s a both/and situation.

What will end ICE’s terroristic regime for good? Recognizing and rejecting its core white nationalism that has been a part of the American fabric for over 400 years. Some of us have never had the privilege to look away and ignore it. Now none of us do. My column: www.bostonglobe.com/2026/01/26/o...
Don’t look to Germany for an analogy. The Minneapolis nightmare is uniquely American. - The Boston Globe
In order to defeat the white nationalism that is at the core of ICE’s assault on American democracy, we have to see it and treat it as what it is.

Bluesky idea: if people who didn't agree with you change their opinions so that they do agree with you, why not be happy that you are making progress - rather than complaining that they are "only just catching up"?

my takeaway is that going out to protests and organizing with your community like minneapolis has shown us and getting offline, where people are paid to parrot government propaganda, is the best action you can do and reminds you the average person isn’t insane or evil

CBP chief Bovino has confirmed that the officers who executed Alex Pretti in the street yesterday are not only *not on administrative leave,* they have all been reassigned to other jurisdictions and are all on the street today.
This is totally unheard of for any officer-involved shooting

I was having this conversation last night with someone about how many people are in the lynching postcard layer of this and simply do not care who the state harms or kills, they have already convinced themselves that person deserves it.
I talk to MAGA voters a lot. They are open and honest about supporting mass deportation. They think it's a good thing, and they support the mission of ICE.
The language they use to justify it and to excuse the horrors, is *exactly* the same language that centrist Dems use to justify US policing.

When was the last time you talked to a Trump supporter about how happy they are about all this? I experienced this the other day, and the advantage they have is how morbidly stunning their alternative reality is. They hate being called Nazis, yet refuse to see why violent terror forces are wrong.
