Tomorrow, there will be oral arguments in a major SCOTUS case on transgender sports.
At least, that's how it's being reported everywhere.
But it's not just about sports. The ruling could change transgender rights for a generation, and impacts EVERYTHING.

Tomorrow's SCOTUS Case Is Not Just About Transgender Sports; Ruling Could Impact All Trans Rights
Though much of the reporting on the Little v. Hecox court case is about transgender sports participation, the SCOTUS ruling could impact all rights of transgender people.

If you’re a citizen and you’re arrested for lawfully recording, monitoring, and objecting to law enforcement, that’s a terrible thing - but you will also absorb so many of their resources by fighting it, and likely win in the end. ICE is grievously outnumbered. THERE ARE MORE OF US THAN THEM.

1. Texas A&M has banned a philosophy teacher from teaching Plato because it has "gender ideology" in it.
The banning stems from excerpts from Plato’s Aristophanes’ Myth of the Split Humans and Diotima’s Ladder of Love.

I was still speaking to my dad in 2020 when George Floyd was killed. I called him the day after and talked to him about it. He had seen the video and thought it was absolutely awful and morally repugnant.
Three days later, he was posting Candace Owens conspiracies about how Floyd was on drugs.

One of the core purposes of right-wing media is to rewrite your memory and reprogram your moral response to an event you saw with your own eyes. George Floyd died of a heart attack. Jan 6 was a peaceful picnic. This process has already begun
THERE IS VIDEO
I really do not want to recommend to everyone a video of a person being shot but there is video from multiple angles
why not cut the crap and just publish "this paper supports random state murder, it makes us feel good, kill kill kill"? same exact meaning, less embarrassing

Your reminder that what happened to Renee Nicole Good is something that happens regularly in America. This is not new, but it is an expanded version of militarized people targeting Black people in particular.
From ICE detention to murder with impunity, we've been doing it. Now it's broadened.

Allowing violence upon the most vulnerable of us (bipoc folks, trans folks, disabled folks, etc) means that EVERYONE will be subject to violence eventually. If you do not stop it toward them, it will not stop toward you. It will just keep happening.

ICE also shot a woman here in Chicago, whom they made similar claims against. She didn't die, despite being shot multiple times, and the charges against her were eventually dropped, because the stories they tell to justify their violence are always bullshit and never hold up under scrutiny.
