I read on Pink News that over 50% of trans people are theists. This blew my mind 🤯. I don’t understand why?

Talking to a friend who said it’s more important now to be the friendly face to all those trump cultists because it’s harder to hate someone they know.

TERFs are mentally ill individuals who are unable to change with the culture and the science. They should receive care for this, or be locked away before they hurt others.
If you know any TURFs, please recognize they are in desperate need of psychological help.

If I wanted to know about giraffes, I wouldn’t ask a committee of hippos.
I would go to the giraffes themselves.
I’d ask a doctor or scientist who specializes in giraffes.
Or I’d ask one who was both giraffe and a doctor.
