Saying trans people threaten the concept of sexual orientation is like saying mashed potatoes threaten the concept of dinner
![Perhaps most concerningly, the Supreme Court adopts extremely transphobic rhetoric concerning transfeminine lesbians.
The Court concludes that a lesbian “must be a [AFAB] female who is sexually oriented towards (or attracted to) [AFAB] females”. The Court concludes that female here cannot include trans women, as the “concept of sexual orientation” would be “rendered meaningless”, and in its opinion, wrongly affect the composition of lesbians as a group.
The Court claims this would lead to an “inevitable loss of autonomy and dignity for lesbians”. It points to evidence from gender-critical groups like the LGB Alliance and The Lesbian Project to make this argument. They claim the inclusion of trans women is having a ‘chilling effect on lesbians’ to associate in lesbian-only spaces. The vast majority of lesbians reject this claim.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:i7aox3qj5gv2bqvlclpwcw5u/bafkreicrxzlblscgchacobotqqxbvfhiyclwilbbzjs363mwf65meyssly@jpeg)

Statt des Stops des Familiennachzugs (in Ö u D geplant), der eindeutig rechtswidrig ist, sollte man mehr Steuerung ins Asyl/Zuwanderungswesen bringen. Kontingentlösungen, regionale Verteilung, Anreizsysteme - mit eigenen Integrationsministerien. Wahrnehmen von Chancen statt Herbeireden von Gefahren.

Die nächsten Monate sind die wichtigsten in der Geschichte unserer Demokratie. Es wird jetzt immer mehr Stimmen aus Medien & Politik geben, die sagen, man solle die rechtsextreme AFD normalisieren, zusammenarbeiten. Das muss mit allen Mitteln bekämpft werden. Sonst ist das das Anfang vom Ende.

Some personal news: the Department of Homeland Security has given me, an immigration lawyer born in Newton, Massachusetts, seven days to leave the U.S. Does anyone know if you can get Italian citizenship through great-grandparents?

Reminder: We are not at war with Venezuela. The people deported are not enemies. The law in question should not apply. Among the most dangerous aspects of the SCOTUS ruling is the idea that the president and his people have the right to arbitrarily determine who our enemies are.

I wondered for a while why Trump was so excited by Brexit, even to the point of getting Farage to fluff him. It was simple, really: proof that, with the support of enough bent media, bad people selling bigotry & lies really could persuade people to vote to punch themselves in the face forever.

Every so often, it just comes back to me in full force. The political and economic order that allowed this man to come to power is obviously no longer tenable. The leaders who let it happen obviously have to be replaced. This is an epoch defining failure and we have to turn the page completely.

Pretty simple rule of thumb when wondering why the Trump administration does anything is to ask two questions:
1) is it racist?
Or
2) are they stupid?
Tends to cover most Trump administration stuff.

Yes, the stock market may be tanking and our national security apparatus has never been more vulnerable and we're on the verge of both economic collapse and war, but it was all worth it to keep pronouns out of email signatures.

Trump’s changes to Social Security will slash 7,000 jobs, shut down offices, and make folks jump through hoops to get what they’ve already earned. Seniors, disabled people, and rural communities—y’all are the target. This is not efficiency, it’s straight-up cruelty.

Trans people, as a class, are not hurting anybody.
Republicans, as a class, have a long list of people they intend to hurt — and it’s a matter of time before your name or the name of someone you care about winds up on it.
