Pierre Poilievre has voted against the environment over 400 times in the last 20 years.

Voting Conservative in Canada’s next election puts you on the wrong side of history.
Pierre Poilievre is Big Oil’s useful idiot
With an inner circle stacked with fossil fuel lobbyists, it’s no wonder that Pierre Poilievre voted against the environment 400 times.

when the TERFs reveal themselves as anti-feminists who believe that women should be relegated to the domestic sphere and don’t even notice the self-own
the level of cracked where you can't conceive of trans women cooking

to ensure that autonomy and dignity for lesbians is preserved, the courts enshrine a definition lesbianism that only a terf would agree with — a fringe group who are not real feminists and make up a TINY percentage of actual lesbians. cool cool cool cool cool.
Saying trans people threaten the concept of sexual orientation is like saying mashed potatoes threaten the concept of dinner
👨‍⚖️ The UK Supreme Court just redefined what a lesbian is

1. In a landmark ruling, a federal judge has blocked the passport ban for transgender Americans... government ban likely violates equal protection, and is made with animus.

Though the ruling only applies to plaintiffs, it is expected expand in coming weeks.

Judge Blocks Passport Ban For Plaintiffs, Citing Government Animus And Equal Protection
The federal judge ruled that transgender people's passport changes do not, as the Trump executive order stated, deprive the "dignity, safety, and well-being of women."

Another huge ruling! The 9th Circuit Court of Appeals just DENIED the government's motion for a stay in the trans military ban case.

The government CANNOT enforce it's ban on transgender people in the military still.

BIG day for pro-transgender rulings.

Rights for the wicked. Rights for the abominable. Rights for all. Because no one is outside human dignity. And because the moment we accept a line, they’ll start saying we’re on the wrong side of it.
I think a lot abt how marginalized people are expected to be perfect just to be treated w/ basic dignity, just to access legal protection. But democracy can’t mean rights for the respectable few. It has to mean fair and just treatment even for those seen as least deserving. That’s the real test.

The Vagina Museum is trans inclusive. We always have been and we always will be. As long as there's a Vagina Museum, we cannot be bullied or bought to change our stance on this.

we made a critical error allowing reactionaries to make-up concepts like “biological sex” and frame them as non-ideological when it’s the exact opposite: people who undergo HRT *are literally changing their biological sex.* this is not some philosophical distinction, it is actual biological reality.

Guys, I love all of you, but the answer to RFK, Jr. is not that autistic adults hold jobs, pay taxes, and get laid, it's that everyone deserves to live even if they can't work, pay taxes, or get laid.

1. A major bill protecting trans people just passed in Washington.

It makes insurers cover 12-month supplies of HRT which can be obtained at pharmacies, allowing trans people to stockpile medication to outlast supply disruptions.
