this is SO goddamn tortured because making trans identity illegal in law without also having cis people catch strays is *literally impossible*.
to the surprise of no one, the “Anticorruption of Public Morals Act" also bans trans people from the internet in the state. calling trans and queer experiences "pornographic" has been part of the playbook for a long time

Tucker Carlson has not had any of his videos that are calls to action to attack trans women in bathroom pulled from facebook, youtube or twitter. If you are a liberal arguing that people can't enjoy the speech protections conservatives are given you work for the conservatives

Elon Musk and JD Vance publicly supporting the neo-Nazis of Germany's AfD, just as an AfD supporter/Elon Musk fan kills 5 and injures 100+ in a terrorist attack at a Christmas market in Germany. Vance's pro-AfD statement came *after* the attack.
It's bad. Not sure what else to say. Dark times ahead.

I think a lot about this quote from Anaïs Nin’s diary from 1939-1944:

“America is in even greater danger because of its cult of toughness, its hatred of sensitivity, and someday it may have to pay a price for this, because atrophy of feeling creates criminals”.

In 2024, several New Hampshire Democrats, afraid that anti-trans attacks would work, voted in favor of a trans surgery ban and bathroom bill.

They lost more seats than most other states. Now the R majority is ramping up targeting us.

Capitulation didn't work.

National Dems, take note.

The fact that only trans kids are targeted for not being allowed to have the puberty blockers & cisgender kids with precocious puberty can still get access with no issues shows this is discrimination, pure & simply.
These medications aren't banned for anybody but trans youth.

In fact, they're considered so safe they're allowed for purely psychosocial benefits in cis kids with early puberty.

this is what's so frustrating about this. We're here because we want this to work.
i want bluesky to succeed & i find it really damn sad that it increasingly seems like someone in leadership is fine torpedoing this entire effort out of ideological spite and/or weakness.

this is going to get even worse now that Singal is allowed to post whatever he wants.

whoever is enabling this needs to be reigned in by the rest of the bluesky team.

if i’m missing something here @aaron.bsky.team please DM me so i can help. you’re rapidly losing the trust of your user base.

For past year+ I've steadily seen trans women not get hired for jobs they would've had a shot at before, fired under some thin excuse (even when their role is badly needed/there's a shortage) or pointedly laid off first.

I've called it the quiet purge. It's happening at supposedly lefty orgs too.

@aaron.bsky.team has an obligation to enforce bluesky's community guidelines and protect the company. knowingly allowing multiple violations of community guidelines from an account that has been reported by thousands of users for these violations is putting his political bias over his own employer.

I'm putting together an open letter on the Singal situation and his repeated deliberate violations of Bluesky Community Guidelines. Please DM me if you're interested in signing or contributing.
We cannot allow Bluesky to reimplement the same mistakes that Twitter did

misogyny is more than just actively dehumanizing and harming woman . misogyny is also passivity in the face of , and giving allowance to , individuals reinforcing a culture that dehumanizes and harms woman .

@aaron.bsky.team is not only a misogynist , but a coward .

speak , or resign .

Singal has landed on the site with the express intent to 'colonise', and is actively organising off-site to make this place untenable for trans users by posting screenshots and directing harassment toward specific users.

And in direct practice - the mod team has had his back the whole way.
cis accomplices — please help us keep the pressure on bsky to consistently apply its code of conduct to singal today. in matters such as this, your voices are of paramount import. we won’t be heard on our own

maybe one day trans people won't have to desperately beg to just be left alone. maybe one day trans people will be treated like we're real humans and not something you can either masturbate to or abuse. maybe one day the suicide rate will go down. maybe one day

here's the rub, too: most people are cool with trans people !!! most people are chill with us and think the bigots are pretty weirdchamp !!!! but because the bigots have Power, are in positions of Respectability, they get to decide the course of things with far fewer numbers.

good morning to every trans person & also cis friends willing to raise their voices to speak in support of us.

Jesse Singal is not a journalist, he is a rightwing extremist.

Read this thread if you still don’t understand why so many people object to him being here.

Block Singal & DNI with him.
Jesse Singal is a liar and a fraud of a journalist and I will prove it as an unassailable fact in this thread.

I'll also talk about why I don't think BlueSky moderation will do anything about him afterwards so stick around or maybe just skip to that if you don't want to read the boring details.
