“Women are habitually mistreated, misdiagnosed, and not even included in medical research. As a booming ‘wellness’ industry lures them with fast cures, many can’t resist the temptation.”

From 2019 but still relevant
A lot of my stuff is no longer online thanks to the fucking death of media and I’ve been on sabbatical for a while due to health. But here’s something I wrote just before the pandemic that’s about how the neglect by medical science created world that gives these folks their power.

Mary Shelley wrote in Frankenstein, “The monster is the monster, but he who enables the monster”… This is the time to resist the monster of authoritarianism that threatens our democracy.

It is increasingly hard to summarize Joe Biden’s approach to being president and a human being. It’s so bad. All I know is Jimmy Carter’s administration wasn’t remembered well and it will be remembered fondly compared to the Biden years. And Jimmy turned out to be a good guy at least.

We're just going to do this song and dance every time a new party takes over, huh?
News has just broke that Trump plans to eject trans people from the military within days of inauguration.

Trans servicemembers who have served 19 years will lose their pensions and healthcare.

This is obscene. They served our country, and will be kicked to the side like trash.

It really feels like truth social now
I can’t tell you how different it is on X now after so many people have left. I have always followed mostly right-wing accounts because I cover them, and they are running out of people to pick fights with. So they’re just mostly fighting with each other.

I really encourage everyone to listen to @onthemedia.bsky.social. Now more than ever understanding how information flows and who controls it and profits off it is a necessity to—I am not exaggerating—human survival. And it is not dreary.

Like, this was the reality. They were denied HIV medication, beaten, and sexually assaulted by both guards and other detained immigrants. The conditions were absolutely horrific. But instead, they're a perfect scapegoat for comfortable white men like Favreau.

I used to represent trans women who were released from ICE detention. Multiple trans women died in custody from medical neglect.

It would be nice for you to talk to people who know what they're talking about on this issue!
I'm always willing to have civil discussions with anyone

I haven't spoken to anyone contemplating an unlawful border crossing, and I don't believe any undocumented inmates have petitioned for gender-affirming surgery (but the law has long required federal prisons to provide gender-affirming care)

Yeah, the fact that y’all don’t realize how incredibly inhumane y’all are is a problem.

Imagine saying you never want to hear about Black people or women in politics again and thinking that’s OK. There’s nothing respectful about any of this.

And you should denounce anyone who thinks it's OK to deny care to folks being held by the state.

denying gender-affirming care (you know, healthcare) to incarcerated folks is cruel and unusual punishment. It's giving unconstitutional, babes.

Saying "this is a distraction" in response to anti-trans attacks without actually pushing back on the attacks is exactly what Kamala Harris did in response to anti-trans attacks during her campaign. That sure worked out well! 🙃
Sarah McBride: "It is an attempt to distract ... Every single time we hear them say the word 'trans,' look what they're doing with their right hand. Look at what they're doing to pick the pocket of American workers, to fleece seniors by privatizing Social Security and Medicare."

One of the things you learn as you read the history of the Weimar Republic is that some people saw what was coming but were completely ignored. It's never completely unforeseeable, it's just that most aren't paying attention or are consumed by normalcy bias.
