I am here because of your post over at BGG

Yes, please.

My interpretation so far whenever I hear that is people don’t want to engage or critically think about topics which are clearly political while they just want to enjoy themselves and not think about the implications of their actions or what their enjoyment of such things implies.

Here's a bit of trivia.

Trans people make up 0.6% of the population.
Psychopaths make up 1.2% of the population.

Psychopaths do actual harm to society, but we hardly even talk about them. They're in our businesses, schools, politics, etc. The current administration is full of them!

each other, and we mustn’t blame the victims of discrimination, and the prejudice the other side has wielded, as the cause of our electoral defeat. Those who do so are cowards who cannot see the forest from the trees.

We must stand united. No exceptions. We must stand with the trans community. /end

They hope that by targeting one group, the rest of us will cower. Such an environment gives an open invitation to fascism. It leads to discrimination, then segregation, then internment, and still worse.

A compassionate, good people would not permit this to happen. We will not be divided against /6

It is little known, but the first book burnings in Nazi Germany didn’t target Jewish writers. It was the burning of the library of the Institute of Sexual Research, which was a safe home for trans people.

It is no accident that fascists today walk that same dark path by targeting trans people. /5

A nation is be judged not by on how it exults its bullies and strongmen, but how it treats its most vulnerable. Like Japanese Americans, the trans community never did anything to deserve the kind of hatred and targeting they have received.

We have a moral obligation to stand by them now. /4
