No hun. You’re supporting a fascist who wants to destroy me and my people. We are now mortal enemies and I will never trust you around me. Your betrayal has consequences. You can go fuck yourself.

Yeah I’m still there. The community is still amazing and I’ve loved the people I’ve met on there. But I’d say few of the people who were there in the good times are still there. It’s almost a whole different crowd. The vibe isn’t that love and support vibe so much. But the numbers of trolls is awful

Like you can’t say anything without being abused. And I’m really bored of that. We’re not allowed to have any peace. Trans people are being relentlessly harassed and pushed out of every place we try to feel safe. Pisses me off.

I worked in the US for two years many years ago. And I loved my time. I have loads of friends all over the country. But I wouldn’t go anywhere near it now.

Was such a complex situation wasn’t it. We have so much that Mattachine New York and Dick Leitch did to be thankful for. Because they had worked tirelessly to end discrimination in so many areas, not least stopping police entrapment of gay men. But this wasn’t their greatest moment.

When he talks about god here, he of course means Trump

If they can do that they are free to come after anyone. Even you. So in defending trans people and our fight for rights you’re defending rights for everyone! /

and the women who they originally pledged to protect. All their rights will be gone. This is how dictatorships rise. By attacking people you don’t care about first and framing them as an enemy threatening something you do care about it’s easy to get you to look away when they commit atrocities. 3/4

and the religious zealots who hated that their privilege and control was being threatened. So they have to attack the pillars that were beginning to prop up a wave of human rights. We are just the easiest pillar to knock down. If we fall, others will fall. People of colour, gay men, workers 2/4

We’re just hoping that we can help the kids that would have lived in misery or unalived themselves, to see that they’re valid, that there are others like them and that there is a pathway to a happy future.

So it’s important to their sexual fantasy that we’re classified as men. Also they need us to be completely marginalised so we’re vulnerable. Because they’re probably sexual abusers and they want total control.

…you’re saying it’s negative. That’s not only disrespectful it leads to bullying and will likely trigger someone hearing it who is struggling with their mental health to spiral downwards. Please be more thoughtful.
