I am a 70-something Queer. (Trans woman and lesbian). My writing and my art help keep me sane in a world that has gone further south than I would have believed possible a decade ago. You can find me at elbethe.net.

Meme text: Elon Musk with a Trillion dollars is scary enough, but Elon Musk at the head of an army of robots is scarier still. On the other hand, he has no heart or soul, so he should fit right in.

And yet, de-transitioner Keira Bell would insist that a lack of breasts, permanently changed voice and facial hair is not equally painful for transgirls.

Yes, Keira, some people make mistakes, but 99% of the transpeople in this world are happy just to be themselves.
Screenshot from article, text reads: Ms Bell was the lead claimant in judicial review proceedings brought against the Tavistock and Portman NHS Trust in 2020. As a teenager she was given puberty blockers and testosterone and at 20 underwent a double mastectomy. As she matured, she recognised that her gender dysphoria was "a symptom of overall misery" and not its cause, and has now sought to detransition. She has described the consequences as including: "possible infertility, loss of my breasts and inability to breastfeed, reproductive atrophy, a permanently changed voice, facial hair."

Meme. Text reads: Russ, (May I call you Russ?) I would consider it a great kindness if you would stop trying to shove your Old Testament, Manly Man, 50's Trad Wife bullshit down the throats of all and sundry. Aside from a few wackos like yourself,nobody wants it. Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Oh, for crying out loud. Here, let me clear that up...
Seriously? "Social Contagion". That's your best? Sorry, but the only thing that is contagious here is "Courage". But, then, you knew that, didn't you. That's why you're so scared. Rapid Onset Gender Dysphoria? We call it "coming out". You think kids can't keep a secret until they know it's safe to open up?

I thought I´d put a face to the guy who ´inspired´ my poem ¨If We Allow It¨. These are the people who are running out country now. The may, at times, be at odds with each other, but they´re all heading for the same world -- one that rewards them for their arrogance.
A picture of Kevin Roberts, with Elbethe Elder´s poem, ¨If We Allow It¨: “We are in the process of the second American Revolution, which will remain bloodless — if the left allows it to be.” Kevin Roberts, The Heritage Foundation. If We Allow It If only Women will allow you to take away the rights their mothers fought for, and take up — willingly — the shackles of old. To surrender all hope of freedom, or a life outside the home. To die of sepsis from a pregnancy that has already ended. To live or die at your whim. If only Queers will allow you to roll the world back to the days before Stonewall, and climb back — willingly — into the closet. To deny trans kids the care they deserve and let them fall into despair. To be strung up on a barbed wire fence for daring to live honestly. To live or die at your whim. If only Black Americans will allow you to bring back segregation, and tolerate — willingly — the old slurs. To lose the rights that their parents fought for. To be lynched for a casual accusation. To live or die at your whim. If only the Immigrants will allow you renege on this country’s promise and return — willingly — to the countries they fled in fear of their lives. To be condemned to torture and imprisonment for the crime of having a tattoo. To have their families sundered and scattered to the four winds. To live or die at your whim. Your revolution was never going to be bloodless. Any fool could see that. People are already bleeding, already dying. Of starvation. Of disease. Of violence. Of despair. All so you can live in a world of straight white men floating on a sea of oppression. A sea of blood. How could any decent human allow that?
