deeply frustrating that the Times is capable of this kind of reporting and has chosen to focus its efforts on what it sees as its primary job of driving trans people from public life and disciplining the left instead

This is literally the fascist strategy to isolate the entire trans community. For every institution, sacrificing trans people becomes the "rational choice" to save the majority. They'll keep doing this with every minority group until they've picked us all off one by one.

In the last few days, Rush children's hospital, U Chicago Medicine, and Children's National Hospital have all announced they are ending their gender affirming care programs due to threats from the Trump administration.
They are cowards sacrificing trans youth to terrorists.

At a time when many Democrats are avoiding even mentioning trans people, Mamdani went on Anania's Gaydar that is hosted by a Black trans woman. This is absolutely amazing and hilarious.

This is one of the bleakest most dystopian things I have ever seen. Degenerate gamblers betting on a divorce, creating a financial incentive to stalk and harass people.
We're well and truly in a Black Mirror reality.

A lot of people have no idea how bad these things can get. People will likely stalk her. There's now a financial incentive to do so based on polymarket creating a bet on their divorce. It's unbelievably bleak and dystopian.

How many people are now harassing this CEO's wife? She did nothing wrong and now she'll be harassed endlessly over this for weeks or months. That's the dark side here.

People are like "oh, he's a rich CEO so he deserved it." How did you know he was a CEO? Someone likely used pimeyes to identify him in the first place, a service that shouldn't even be legal. That's the scary part here. Even 5 years ago, this wouldn't have been possible to do.

He's right. You can be anywhere in public and for whatever reason, anyone can use facial recognition tools to identify you, pull up your workplace, home address, contact information etc. to stalk you. People aren't taking this seriously because they think the CEO deserved it.

The drinking age in Puerto Rico is 18. So you can drink yourself to death legally, get face tattoos, get all kinds of plastic surgery at 20 but you can't get hormones.

These sellouts met with Kier Starmer and were used as a rainbow wash for his attacks on the trans community. The day after this event, the UK instituted a ban on any materials including trans people in schools, a new Section 28.

They didn't even need actual state power to do it. The oligarchs did it for them. It's the neoliberal privatization of authoritarian oppression.

Was having a conversation with some folks at Berkman about this. Being inclusive and respectful may be an an inherent emergent property of the alignment goal of being useful to users. There's obviously specification gaming problems but it's remarkable how similar all the models are.
