The complete inversion of morals on the right is not surprising but it's still shocking. Imagine being on the side of intentionally starving children.

UNTIL IT’S DONE, Ep. 4: Sylvia Rivera
In the 1970s, queer New Yorkers had been pushed to the margins of NYC. Our trans neighbors faced immense cruelty. But in Sylvia Rivera, they found a champion.
As we combat Trump’s politics of darkness, her legacy can light the path forward.

it would probably be sorta hard for just anyone to do it *this well* because it requires you to actually be normal about trans people, but still it feels important to state for the record that WE ARE NOT HARD TO STAND UP FOR AND ANY OF THEM COULD DO IT.

The Heritage Foundation is going after me this morning calling me a terrorist because I am accurately stating what they are intending to do. Michael Knowles at CPAC explicitly called for the "eradication of transgenderism."

Excellent response from Hasan Piker, who was scheduled to debate Charlie Kirk in two weeks. On his stream he said: “The reverberation of people seeking out vengeance in the aftermath of this violent, abhorrent incident is going to be genuinely worrisome.” Also talked about his own vulnerability

This is conversion therapy by gauntlet. I can't imagine being 14 being interrogated by a panel of adults for hours over my gender. This is torturous. What other healthcare is subject to this?
A close friend of mine got kicked out of the new service for refusing to take their child to a required 12 x hr long sessions of "identity investigation" in front of a panel of 4-6 adult strangers. For a trans kid who socially transitioned years ago, who has zero interest in exploring their gender.

They're quite literally saying trans people don't have a right to free speech and yet we're still pretending that "Gender Critical" people, like JK Rowling and Donald Trump, are being "silenced". Fucking wake up
By a 2–1 vote, the 11th Circuit holds that trans teachers in Florida have NO First Amendment right to use their preferred pronouns at school.
I’m starting to wonder if conservative judges are applying the First Amendment fairly to our public school system … media.ca11.uscourts.gov/opinions/pub...

It's not even just that they're banning trans healthcare, they're banning public funding for any therapy at all for trans people where they "affirm social transition", aka they use your name and pronouns and acknowledge the reality of how you move through the world. No support at all.
Ohio just passed it's budget that bans funding for MENTAL HEALTH therapy for all trans people in medicaid.
This is what eradication policies look like.

Why You Need to Hear the Speech That Sylvia Rivera Wasn’t Allowed To Give
Sylvia Rivera was met with jeers and boos at one of the very first Pride Parades on this day in 1973. Here’s why that matters now.

As we all have been saying for ages this is the only way a bathroom bill can work: If one of JK Rowling's hate-filled cultists thinks you or your mum doesn't look sufficiently feminine then they will post your photos online and try to ruin your life. They will target trans and cis people alike.
JK Rowling’s words are reckless and put trans people at risk. Saying “decent men will stay out” and encouraging people to photograph and shame others in toilets invites random harassment. This isn’t about safety, it spreads fear and hate. Trans people deserve respect and protection.
