Any given trans person (particularly one in any role of power or prestige) is at risk of being forcibly cast as the villain in an algorithmic right-wing fairy tale by some grifter who's greatest dream in life is to be a pitchman for crypto schemes and off-brand fertility supplements
every trans person i see post about the OU suspension knows that the suspended target is trans & a grad student, & has an innate awareness that this is about purging trans employees. every cis person i see thinks the target is a rando professor & that this is about giving conservatives good grades

cis people don't want it to be about banning trans people because what if all that other stuff they ignored was about banning trans people too and that can't be because they're objectively the best and most moral and never make mistakes really trans people just make everything about trans stuff and-

You can simply choose not to participate in the public shaming of a trans woman in a world that so often gives us zero grace no matter what we do or say.

If Zohran Mamdani wins it'll be because he got people excited through a bold policy platform and sheer charisma but if Andrew Cuomo wins it'll pretty clearly be because he and the entire establishment resorted to some of the nastiest most vile smears they could think of

The Democratic Party is in open warfare against its own relevance and yet every day we're fed a stream of columns and podcasts about how it's really the fault of trans people and immigrants

This was SB99 from 2023. I spoke against this bill on 3 different occasions on the house floor, including the "blood on your hands" speech.

I am glad this bill has been permanently defeated. And that Montana's constitution continues to protect trans people from government overreach and animus.

If you try to beat conservatives only by debating them on policy, it frames the nature of the fight as a policy disagreement, hiding the real problem, which is that—behind the endless parade of bullshit they use to obscure this fact—they are cruel bullies w/strange hang-ups and violent intentions.

For a couple years, I have proudly served on the advisory board for the National Organization for Victim Advocacy -- the oldest org of its kind in the country. During my time, I've supported a game changing pilot program: the training and deployment of youth victim advocates to college campuses.

This lifesaving work was made possible through a grant from the Department of Justice. Last week, we were informed that the funding would be terminated immediately, with Pam Bondi's office writing that this support for survivors of assault and crisis “no longer effectuates agency priorities.”

Jesse did not ‘question an aspect of the progressive message.’ He dedicated his *entire career* to popularizing the idea that progressives are unhinged, anti-science freaks who are foisting permanent surgeries on kids without assessment.
