Would also love a world where the Harris response “transgender operations on illegal aliens” is a recognition that trans (and all other kinds) of health care is a human right and undocumented and incarcerated individuals are fully human rather than distancing herself from earlier progressive stances

Though transphobes across the political spectrum claim they are concerned with sex—not gender—these parallel claims that 1. strong women must be male and 2. men who defer to women must be female tells us that policing sex is fundamentally a means of creating and enforcing gender

you don’t have to subject yourself to images of gruesome violence, but you should know that they exist, that you and I paid for that brutality with our taxes and our ignorance, and that nearly every one of our elected officials thinks that that violence is good and that we should fund more of it

There is no academic freedom at universities while they fund genocide and support the military industrial complex when conducting the “normal” politics of academia means legitimizing and/or intellectually or financially contributing to these institutions.

Queer kids lose their innocence when forced to navigate a world made hostile and dangerous to them, and their peers lose their innocence when parents, schools, and politicians deputize them to maintain that hostility. Transphobia threatens the innocence of all children.
