They won't start with banning birth control. First they'll lie about it. Then dictate who can prescribe it, use it, fund it, in what forms, and for how long. Suddenly, your doctor won't call you back. I know this is what they'll do because it's what they're doing to transgender healthcare right now.

Today it was snowballs. Tomorrow, someone could paint a black circle on the side of a mountain, causing our officers to drive the train into the mountain, turning the train into an accordian that plays a sad little tune indicating that the officer has been seriously injured

Wow

the kind of log you get from a dead body in System Shock or smth

@segyges.bsky.social

this is extremely fucking important, esp with what just happened in kansas. they are trying to criminalize every aspect of our existence. i try not to be alarmist about things but this is where we are and it is BAD bad

DEMAND A BETTER WORLD
IF THEY DONT WANT TO GIVE YOU ONE THEY DO NOT GET THE POWER OF DENYING YOU ONE

WE CAN AND SHOULD HAVE BETTER THAN ALL OF THIS FUCKING BULLSHIT

Shaved heads. Withdrawal of necessary medication. Forced medical detransition. Solitary confinement. Physical abuse. Emotional abuse. Endless rape, by inmates and staff.

All of these cruel and unusual punishments have been documented against trans women in jails and prisons. This is happening now.

And when we are arrested, in states like Kansas, under their new laws making it criminal for us to exist, this is the kind of treatment that awaits us.

This is what trans people, particularly trans women, are facing in prison, when they are arrested as part of the growing effort to criminalize us.

i hope more people are aware that the mass targeting to remove trans people out of public life is both violence against an oppressed minority but also has a strongly political bent, since trans people are often integral members of liberal & leftist organizing institutions

hey, remember when the transphobes started coming for gender-affirming care for minors and it was framed as “concern for children” and trans folks said “lol they just want us to not exist” and our society full of rubes and people with turnips for brains took the transphobes’ arguments at face value

Actually, it is precisely the bourgeoisie that has always played the hypocrite by characterising formal equality as “democracy”, and in practice using force against the poor, the working people, the small peasants and the workers, by employing countless means of deception, oppression, etc.

i think we need to be very clear that forcing trans people to use documents with the wrong marker is a form of sexual humiliation, it’s sexual harassment from the state itself

fucking genocidal

Quite rare to see a chart that says quite so overtly that no one involved has the slightest clue what’s happening here

Kansas has, overnight, invalidated the drivers’ licenses of trans people, a pointless cruelty that upends their lives

If Brits think “it won’t happen here” think again! Groups in the U.K. who want the same thing are routinely invited to consult with Labour and normalised in our press!

The threat of arrest for trans people is an implicit threat of rape. This is what happens to incarcerated trans women.

One of the things that makes the partisan gender gap convo so frustrating is centrists giving preference to men by talking about how we need to listen to their “very real concerns” when the concerns (driven by a bad media diet) are women have rights, can vote however they want, & can say no to sex

Two years ago today.
RIP Aaron Bushnell.

I think at this point, it's clear that the DOJ is covering up the fact that Donald Trump raped a child. He's a pedophile rapist.

EU has started to diversify its tech away from Silicon Valley, because the U.S. is increasingly unpredictable and has been using its sanctions law to cut off people from U.S. tech companies (yeah!), and now the U.S. is getting pissed because, well, what do you damn well expect, you grade A buffoons?

About a quarter of all trans people in this country have moved states in possibly the largest internal migration of a particular minority group since the great migration. This is a full blown crisis.

I regret to inform you that he took the bait.

i am fucking begging, begging people to stop falling for fascists putting a hammer and sickle in their bio as being on "the left". first of all, "the left" is a meaningless political label. second of all, literally anybody can put on a ussr jacket and call themselves a commie. doesnt make it true

And how did these transsexuals achieve such a future? Through jihad, of course!

Letting Jesse Singal write about trans issues in the NYT is like letting David Duke do an op-ed about racism.

Yesterday was 5 years of Kill James Bond and we’d just like to say firstly that we love every single one of our listeners and secondly free Palestine and trans rights, thank you for your attention to this matter, KJB
