I'd never advocate for political violence...
Legislation in Oklahoma and South Carolina would make it a felony to provide hormonal or surgical transition treatment to transgender people younger than 26 — an uncharted incursion into adults’ health care.

You just know that picking 26 is a vain slap at the ACA. >

It is also infantilizing young adults who should have these choices available if they want them >

“Young”? 26 is at the end of Draft age! >

It's a sliding scale. I slid past 50 a year or so back. Everyone is starting to look young.... for some reason >

That is so morbid. Loved it. There are less and less people your age because they have died off already. You are playing survivor with no winner. >

If I want to feel young I'll move to Okinawa and be surrounded by Japanese Centenarians >

After losing a 50 year war on gays, the GOP found a new minority to beat over the head and blame for all their problems. >

I've been wondering if and when they lose their war on the trans community, what will be the next group they hate on next? Or will they go back at the top of their list with a second round of hate for everyone they've already hated? >


what will be the next group they hate on next?

Furries. They've already started on this one with the litterboxes in the classrooms claims. Easy target, harder to explain away like transfolks can. >

It's gonna be furries. >

It's the thin edge of the Anti-LGBT wedge >

No, it's the thin edge of the fascism wedge
LGBT persecution is just the horrible means to an even greater end >

If I was a transgender person in a GOP SHITHOLE state I'd either be leaving, or armed. >

bruh we transgender people in GOP states can barely feed ourselves. the trauma of transition has made owning a gun an impossibility for me, i’m far more likely to kill myself than any bigot is at this point with the shit i’ve been through. do you think we really have the recourses and mental health to just up and move states? we need support from cis straight people now more than ever because we genuinely cannot defend ourselves fully here. we are a fucking tiny minority. >

It's frustrating. I don't think cis people, even pretty good allies, understand just how bad things are in the community as it stands. I feel like they see the bad things on the horizon, but are blind to how bad things have been for years and years. The "status quo" for us is family abandonment, abject poverty, subsistence sex work, sexual, physical, and emotional abuse, and lists upon lists of dead friends every year...
They see the conservatives reheating the same arguments they used against gay people and they think we can just run the same playbook in return. We've ignored these problems for years because we were always promised that once the L and G got their rights, they'd offer us a leg up.... We need that now more than ever. >

This time last year they only wanted to ban sports.
Can we call it a genocide yet? >

What is that quote about how if the fascists went from step A to step Z, people would rise up and squash them.  But by slowly creeping step A, B, C, D… there is no “line” and no outrage? >

Fascism requires an enemy. Some minority to blame the countries problems on, Someone to accuse of being disloyal. Someone they can claim are trying to destroy the country. African- Americans, Hispanics, Asians, Gay, transgender or Jews. Only the date on the calendar ever changes. The time to say NEVER AGAIN is NOW! >

I shouldn't make fun of these young girls who probably don't have a choice but to be pawns in this dog and pony photo shoot, but damn it's creepy how they all look cookie cutter same. I guess the homogenization is the whole point for the GOP. >

I'd like to direct your attention to Kevin Stitt's hairline and how it's receding in a way that makes it look a little bit like a testicle. And he's fair game. >

Stitt rhymes with "shit" and that's no accident folks. >

Ya gotta love that photo.
A man, signing a way the rights of women while others watch.
God Republicans are the taint of evil >

they wont end untl they are able to kill trans people >

This is what their voters want too >

I wonder if those little girls hold the sign understand what's going on. >

I’m sure her parents have put the fear in her that a boy with long hair is going to turn her into a lesbian. >

😆 lol, the smaller govt party. >

I’m shocked.
