Also, trans rights sit at the confluence of all things bodily autonomy, itself the root of all freedom.
If you can't control what is and isn't done to your body according to your own will, you're not free. Freedom of speech, of motion, of assembly, of association, etc. all require bodily autonomy.

There’s a specific mechanism in authoritarian movements that we’re seeing play out in real-time across American media and tech. It’s a simple rule: "If we cannot co-opt it, we must destroy it."
It is the logic of "scorched earth." It's the logic of the Nero Decree and it's happening right now. 🧵

Trans people are America's greatest asset, its strongest warriors for freedom, its bravest soldiers, the one who look at a difficult problem, see a solution, and then go get the job done.
All efforts to destroy trans people originate with enemies of personal liberty seeking to weaken our nation.

I wanted to share probably the most important sermon I’ve given and it’s while I’m being arrested. It’s torture pure and simple what happens at #Broadview. I’m ok, though I was thrown to the ground and choked with my pectoral cross. A review of the video shows I was peaceful - did I deserve this?

Nothing to this one but venting: The transphobes are the most cowardly of bigots, people so terrified of what's in their pants & what's not in their hearts that they make it a calling to terrorize those who've done the work to know who they are. Mice have more courage, slugs have more grace.

Any police officer who vows to quit depending on the results of an election is openly admitting that they are partisan, that they swore an oath but it was conditional, and that they believe the work they do as law enforcement is tied to a particular political party.
All of these are damning.

Not for nothing but if you're high profile and need to flee the US, don't tell anyone in advance. It's also most certainly better to leave via a smaller land border crossing and catch your flight from Canada or Mexico. Much less ability for the feds to prevent you from leaving that way.

A totalitarian movement must never achieve its goals, as that would eliminate the need for the movement itself. Even in victory, new enemies must be created in order to justify further cruelty and domination.
A grim reminder: these people will never be satisfied. There’s no point at which they will say “we’ve won, let’s enjoy life.” They will always be looking for someone else to punish, to revile, to dehumanize. They’re empty without that.
