While Maryland Gov. Moore posted about Trans Day of Rememberance, his state was torturing a trans woman by denying her hormones and housing her with men--according to her lawyer--for 2 months.
All of this for "hate crime" charges from alleged vandalism of a trans symbol near a Catholic school.

The primary antidote to despair that I've found is getting engaged in local organizing and volunteering.
Find a group doing work you care about in your area - homeless advocacy and outreach, immigrant support, queer rights - and volunteer with them.
It's a tremendous counter to helpless despair.

What do you suggest though? It's all very well saying "Don't let them win" but it's not like people have a little switch in their brains they can just flip from Despair to Hope.

While TERFs claim that men will pretend to be trans in order to assault women, men are pretending to be ICE agents in order to assault women.
(Real ICE agents also assault women)
Violence in the name of female purity, with zero concern for women's actual well-being are hallmarks of white supremacy

new from @kylietcheung.bsky.social in @teenvogue.com: recently, men have impersonated plainclothes ICE agents to assault women—only possible, she argues, because state agents commit violence with impunity.
"To be clear, men wouldn’t be posing as ICE agents and assaulting women if ICE didn’t exist."

How ICE Raids Are Making It Easier for Civilian Men to Assault Immigrant Women
"This phenomenon is only possible because of the outsized power that state agents have always had to abuse and control women and victims' bodies," argues Kylie Cheung.
