It’s almost like the “You’re just panicking, Transpeople aren’t really being erased.” crowd were full of fucking shit.
My only question starting today is " when are we going to do a massive protest? "
I’m not saying 3 fat people walking around with copier paper sized art work. I’m talking, millions and millions of people Carrying helicopter readable banners and crates of water bottles to every single downtown.
When is this fuckening? I want to be there. I want it to be a general strike where everything stops. No planes, no cars, no trains. We walk (after a normal commute maybe) and we stay until orange fuck boy gets the boot so hard that he goes flying past the helicopter and into the sunset with pretty boy Vance in his mouth and Elno in his ass.
When???
Random people online call for general strikes all the time but there’s no coordination or planning so nothing comes from them. However, there is one with real potential in the works being coordinated by an established union, United Auto Workers, with support from unions in several other industries. The date will be May 1, 2028, when many unions contracts with no-strike clauses have been coordinated to expire at once, and they are taking time to prepare, organize, and spread the word.
Google 50501
50 states, 50 protests, 1 day.
Feb 5th at your state capitol.
I searched “50501 protest” and got a lot of facebbok, instagram, and forum links. I can’t really find a single site listing all official information.
LGB is the most ridiculous thing I’ve seen.
I’m not THAT young (born in the 90s) and even I’ve never ever seen LGB as an initialism without the T.
Born in the 70s here. I do remember LGB without the T in the 1990s and early 2000s, you probably were too young to pick up on the term. In any case, trans rights came into the spotlight much later than LGB rights.
First they came for the Trans people, but I didn’t speak up, because I wasn’t Trans.
You know I had a crazy thought yesterday… I’ve gone in the bathroom a bunch of times and never once have I tried looking at anybody else’s genitalia… Why the hell does anybody care about this?
Edit: I mean not accepting people for being people everybody should just be cool with each other… What the government is doing is beyond evil and we need to do everything in our power to stop it.
You probably also don’t watch far right media all day. Fox News and it’s spawn have been fear mongering trans people almost non-stop for years now. That’s the entire disconnect from the right and normal people
And don’t forget conflating trans people and drag queens.
Ever do a drag show? Even if you’re cishet?
Sorry, you’re trans now.
Please keep telling me there’s no genocide of queer people in America. I hear that on Lemmy regularly these days.
Any gender-affirming care for teenagers have been canceled, so the (non-tracked) suicide rate will already skyrocket. However right now the camps are only for “immigrants” and those who get caught by ICE as collateral damage of their hunt; trans people are in second place though. I assume first they’ll come for teenagers as well, ripping them out of their families who’ll get accused of child abuse (for trying to protect their trans kids), then the camps for everyone else will be build.
Any gender-affirming care for teenagers have been canceled
Yeah, I doubt this… cis-boys getting their man-boobs removed, and cis-girls getting breast augmentations aren’t going to have any trouble.
You know gender affirming care isn’t just surgery, right?
I know. I think you missed the point of my comment.
My point is that it’s still going to happen, it’s just being cancelled for trans people.
