If the government’s position is that being trafficked to El Salvador by Donald Trump and Stephen Miller amounts to a final and irreversible deprivation of all rights, then it seems to me every federal court has a duty to permanently enjoin the practice as soon as it possibly can.

In case I sound like I'm talking theory here:
People don't hate us because we have a medical condition that they just don't understand, they hate us because we fail to perform the roles of "man" or "woman" as designated and threaten the whole system of labor extraction / reproduction by existing.

Cis people should understand how gender works materially, not speculate philosophically.
The violence against trans people is gendered oppression, a subset of an almost ubiquitous violence that controls and punishes non-men to reduce their social power and the cost of their labor relative to men.

So I guess the idea is...what is the foundational thing cis folk will have to tie the concept into? Race? Further up the chain, even if only by a bit.
Gender identity is the FIRST thing we learn about ourselves. I mean, breathe...slap! "It's a...".
Maybe breathing is it. Mostly not thought about.

When I lived in Huntington Beach, CA my home was walking distance to the beach and I visited often. And just as often I was picking up garbage left by visitors or washed up from the ocean. I noticed people would just walk by it and ignore it was there..until I started making art with it.

So much of the shit people say about trans women is so transparently them projecting their weird shit onto other people. “They get horny from being in women’s bathrooms!” Buddy that’s a you thing

IMO, most men shouldn't pair a sport coat with jeans because they probably don't have an eye for it. However, the good news is that it's pretty easy to develop this eye. 🧵

Earnest post, but: a thing I like here is it’s okay to have moments of happiness in public without being broadly scolded, and I believe that sustaining this kind of humanity will be very important as we resist fascism.
We have to sustain each other. Making joy isn’t denial, it’s how we will survive

Anyone that wants to build a leftist movement in the US and doesn’t think that radical political education needs to be at the center of it should not be trusted.
No more “it’s not my job to educate you.” We need to educate everyone. We need people to be angry that they are being robbed.

Georgia official warns of likely Russian interference in presidential election
A video of Haitians saying they illegally voted for Kamala Harris is fake, Georgia Secretary of State Brad Raffensperger said, and likely a product of Russian troll farms.
