1. Many of you have seen a graph purporting to show trans identification has decreased in recent years.
Matt Walsh and Elon Musk celebrated it as a victory over "transgenderism."
Turns out, the entire graph is based on an egregious math and statistics error.

Fact Check: No, There Is Not A New Survey Showing Trans Identity Is Decreasing
The claim, which originates from far-right professor Eric Kaufmann, appears to have made a glaring error: the survey actually shows more people have come out, not fewer.

a thing about playing with outright dishonest propaganda is that it isn’t entirely self-fulfilling. when you lie to people you don’t get to complain when there’s a disconnect between your perception as a movement and public contempt for your actual views. people still think nazis are bad

The especially monstrous aspect of this is as trans people we have rights because black women fought for them. I am sure I don't have to repeat that quote
Sarah McBride voting to honor a man who demonized our community - and Black people, and disabled people, and immigrants - is a fucking joke and she should be ashamed of herself.

refusing to accept this isn’t just about “purity” or whatever, it’s about effective politics. someone who thinks it’s practical to cave on trans rights misunderstands how politics works, they don’t recognize that public opinion is forged by perseverance
Gavin Newsom suggesting that 25 years of age is too young to transition and agreeing to right-wing entryism of concern trolling about trans people in sports. This is your opposition leader?
I will never vote for Gavin Newsom anyone who thinks trans people are actual humans will follow suit.
