Trans rights are human rights, because if one person isn’t free to be who they are, then none of us are free.

The fascists will get around to you eventually.

Trans people in the U.S. are reporting that they are being refused passport renewals, meaning they can't leave the country:
A trans woman goes to get a new passport and is told at first she can get one with a male marker and then that she can't get one at all.

Restricting the travel of marginalized groups. Sound familiar?
Be very cautious. They will not return any of my documents either. #trans #travelban #arrest #transrights #LGBTQ #humanrights #lawyer

SHARE WIDELY.
KNOW YOUR RIGHTS.

With mass deportations starting today across the country, it is vitally important - for both citizens and non-citizens - to know your rights.

You have the right to remain silent. Assert it. You have the right to a lawyer. Ask for one.

deadnaming catilyn jenner is like referring to Clarence Thomas with a racial slur.

using open, grotesque bigotry against people you don't like is in fact just using open grotesque bigotry. normalizing bigotry against marginalized people harms marginalized people.

Interesting point made in this video: we won't get renewable energy under capitalism because the return on investment for renewables is too low, while fossil fuel energy has a higher return. youtu.be/mkIMf_hVOfQ

Seems a lot of folks are leaving the Zuckerverse on account of recent policy changes. I've found FB to be quite a mixed bag for years, but really value some of the private communities I'm a member of.

What's the replacement? I don't find Discord servers to be that great, myself. Private reddits?

Disappointed in Fetterman's progression. I'm not even sure he's a better senator than Oz would have been at this point.

I don't have much of a "speaking in public" voice on social networks: I'd rather listen/react But maybe I'll try dropping things I tend to discuss in smaller online groups here as well, to get a feel for it and see how that goes.

I find it very hard to trust anyone who believes that non-Christians (and even not-the-right-kind-of-Christians) will suffer eternal conscious torment in hell. You think it's a good thing for me and a bunch of people I care about to be tortured forever, and expect me to be your friend?
