livenley

every journalist breathlessly banding together for the common cause of painting random trans people as hysterical reactionaries is — in fact — a sentient used loose bandaid floating lazily in a public kiddie pool thinking that they’re an integral part of the city’s vast beautification efforts

LLM makers makers do not want you to be able to understand. It's about turning the means of understanding and sensemaking into externalized products to rent.

you cannot escape that our media class does not recognize the humanity or interiority of anyone other than people they can network with.

We like to pretend that Shooting While Crying is an Israeli thing but no, it’s a very very American thing. It’s like one of the chief cultural exports of the whole country.

one guy made a video and said everyone should do it to "send a message" to tech companies about enshittification

"Cant believe this person the largest newspaper in the world has made its personal mission to destroy would criticize one of Us, the brave vanguard of truth that have done little more than shine fascists boots as the entire world turns into slop and hate speech. Ungrateful doesnt begin to cover it"

Every western journalist jerking each other off as every chicken they've ever pretended didnt exist comes home to roost would be hilarious if it wasnt being used as a justification to attack and harass non public Trans people. That part just makes you all seem pathetic and incredibly guilty.

a key thing in the game people say is about the purity and necessity of human expression is an overzealous feminine artist systematically crushing a racially pure France lol its so wild that game makes me so mad

e33's sexism is the one thing that gets the least pushback in discourse because its just impossible to deny. those hysterical women and their grief they must be brought to heel lest they destroy the world and themselves. you keep waiting for it to undercut this but it just doubles down lmao

Can we stop trying to defend the wokest journalist at Der Stürmer by dogpiling people said newspaper has made it its personal mission to destroy. Yall look even more foolish than you usually do, which is impressive for American Journalists.

I'm sorry but if you take paychecks from the New York Times some segment of people will simply not take you seriously, morally or intellectually, because you're working for an organization that has spent the last 10 years deliberately building a hate movement.

"The trans people just wont stop going after this guy, no one knows why. It must be that trans women are evil bullies couldnt be their consistent transphobia."

"You cant criticize (insert liberal) for (absurd transphobia) you are (lying or creating division or doing cancel culture or exxagerating or distracting). No I wont acknowledge theyve been like this for years and will do this again in 3 months when theyre transphobic again."

The way yall endlessly shout down any trans people talking about transphobia from liberal institutions, publications, pundits and politicians is so telling and its always a different excuse each time for why we should shut up but its always about us shutting up.

I don't care what bouie's moral liability is working at the transphobia factory. I just know making it uncomfortable to work for the transphobia factory is bad for the factory and good for me. same goes for cops and troops. sorry if you are one of "the good ones" but thats not my problem

Bureau of Prisons: February 19, 2026 PURPOSE AND SCOPE To establish professional guidelines for the mental health evaluation and treatment of inmates meeting the diagnostic criteria for Gender Dysphoria (GD) to assist their progress toward recovery, while reducing or eliminating the frequency and severity of symptoms and associated negative outcomes.

This week it was uncovered that the Trump regime is trying to "cure" trans prisoners of being transgender, while doing everything they can - from labeling our mere existence as explicit to stripping us of our legal documents - to ensure we *all* end up imprisoned in their ever-growing camps.

Anyone who seriously goes to bat for the fucking New York Times while it's running a dozen anti-trans articles a week alongside shit like "How Gender Ideology Lost The American Middle-Class" is a thin blue byline asshole, and a danger to trans women on here especially.

If you died in the Middle East as a US service member you deserved it

Journalists who whine and cry any time trans people criticize them, are extremely condescending when they interact with us especially toward trans women, and work at a publication that manufactures consent for killing all of us: "HOW DARE YOU CALL ME TRANSPHOBIC😭"

being desperate, angry, frustrated, even mean online is basically one of the few consistent & easy outlets most people have in general. amongst the many things it is, its massively unprofessional to characterize the conditions influencing this tension as equivalent to run of the mill bigoted haters

not something that would surprise me if, as things continued to worsen without recourse or clear pathways to challenge it (all while the contributing reporting continues), i started to receive backlash for even tangentially participating in these institutions. doesnt matter if its fair, its logical

its really not surprising that a scared and publicly vilified group such as transsexuals would grow to resent anyone who works in the industry (journalism) that has played a primary role in the past decade in influencing public, national, and legal opinion as a new pillar of the news cycle

So this continued HEY STOP DOGPILING THE *GOOD* REPORTERS THERE BECAUSE THEY HALF-HEARTEDLY DEFEND THEIR WORK OR CO-WORKERS refrain is just pathetic. You're working at the newspaper that has tangibly harmed my life, and the lives of thousands of others. You don't get to avoid stewing in that.

If you want to keep working there because US Journalism is a smoking crater and it is one of the few outlets than can pay even a moderately okay rate? I respect that more than this continued song and dance about being a Journalistic Bulwark. Be honest about what you're doing or just shut up.

There are writers and journalists I like a lot who I think are brilliant that have defended their continued work as a necessary act to ensure there are still left-leaning voices reporting the truth there.

In 2026, those voices are a quiet whisper against the chorus of Actual Fascist Propaganda

Here's my stance on the NYT mess:

There is nothing to be gained by staying. Whatever prestige or integrity it had has long since rotted away. It is the single most damaging press institution towards trans lives in America. If you expect people to be sympathetic for working there, you're a fool

Really appreciating the elegant efficiency and coherence of “Death to America.”

Wait til zoomers learn about Chris Dorner

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Christo...

The government came out with this whole big patriotic circlejerk about how he died so bravely, even while knowing his fellow soldiers had murdered him and then burned the evidence

For zoomers: He was shot 3 times in the head from less than 10 yards away by his buddies for criticizing the war as an illegal atrocity, then the government completely lied about how he died in a big Charlie Kirk martyr way.

His buddies also burned his body armor and uniform afterwards, btw
