I will NEVER vote for a politician who votes for anti-trans legislation. Never. I don't care who it is, it's a dead issue. Move on. If my vote is so important to the future of democracy they should have thought of that before they voted to exterminate my child.

The comorbidity of neo-Nazism and transphobia isn't just a kind of "one bad belief leads to all bad beliefs". At its core, it's the same belief: belief in a rigid societal order where your station at birth determines your future, your role, and how you must labor.
A belief in biodestiny, in short.

Today, I examine how the boundaries of the Nation are co-constituted by race, disability, and sexuality, but also---notably---gender and control over reproduction.
And ask everyone to stop saying transfeminism is 'imperialist'. For fuck's sake.

I think where Trump differs from Congressional Republicans on the filibuster is, they see it as something they will want to use in the future, whereas he's thinking of killing it as a step toward permanent rule. Kill it, pass laws that make it impossible for Dems to win again, bada bing.
Trump: "We should knock out the filibuster. If you did that, we'd get voter ID, you'd have no mail in voting, all things that make our elections dishonest."

Very sad that I felt I had no choice but to resign from The Infinite Monkey Cage - a victory for the transphobes and other bigots - I did it because so much of the media has chosen to believe the kind and empathetic people are a fiction - they are real and so often unrepresented.

This entire grift relies on convincing people that they don't know how to do the things they have always known how to do, and ironically, if it works, we will, in a very short amount of time, forget how to do all the things we have always known how to do.

It is essential to remember that Sensible centrists got everything they wanted in the UK.
The left smashed, their Competent Sensible politicians won by a landslide last year and have a huge majority and the policies they dreamed of implemented.
And the result is endless horror.

Last week, ICE arrested and separated a father and son after a routine check-in. Six-year-old Yuanxin had just enrolled in the first grade at an elementary school in Astoria. Now he's in custody, alone. ICE won't say where. This cruelty serves no one. It must end.
