“Never believe that [bigots] are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, and open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly since he believes in words. The [bigots] have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. (…) If then (…), the [bigot] is impervious to reason and to experience, it is not because his conviction is strong. Rather his conviction is strong because he has chosen first of all to be impervious.” Adapted from "Anti-Semite and Jew. An Exploration of the Etiology of Hate" by Jean-Paul Sartre

How To Disenfranchise Minority Groups In America Segregate restrooms, schools, sports, and healthcare. Claim a group abuses social services and shutter the services. Claim white women are naturally endangered by hypersexual minority groups. Dismiss hate crimes. Write laws that almost exclusively target minorities Fetishize minority groups as naturally libidinous and promiscuous. Accuse them of taking poor peoples jobs. Use pseudoscience to claim a group has 'natural biological advantages'. Use pseudoscience to claim a group is a threat to health and wellness. Assign random mental illnesses to a group. Use violent outliers as proof a group is dangerous to a community. Cite a 'good one' doing well as proof to dismiss claims of systemic oppression.

This is a 510,000 pixel box. That's how many active NCAA athletes there are. 10 of the pixels are red. That's how many trans athletes were banned by Trump's segregator policy.
Jesse Dollemore is shocked (SHOCKED!) to learn the same people segregating women's and LGBTQ+ healthcare are fine with making it harder for qualified minorities to find work and want to weaponize the DOJ to threaten private companies that hire too many of "them" "In the name of the greatest people that have ever trod this earth, I draw the line in the dust and toss the gauntlet before the feet of tyranny, and I say segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever." -George Wallace's 1963 Inauguration for governor of Alabama

Terms LGBTQ+ Allies and News Sources Need To Normalize "Segregation" "Apartheid" "Refugees" It isn't "266,000 LGBTQ+ Young People Left States With Anti-LGBTQ Laws" It's "266,000 LGBTQ+ Refugees Fled Apartheid Governments" Don't let politicians and corporate infotainment control the narrative of their hate crimes.
Heh. Thanks, Grok.

Me: "Can I have book featuring a nonbinary Jewish-coded Autist's fight for their peoples rights?" Jo: "A what!?" Terry: "I have two! This one's got a gay/trans allegory overcoming her religious indoctrination while they work together to improve their world." Me: "I'll take both!"

Too many anti-LGBTQ+ conspiracy theories and hate speech can be traced directly to white nationalist/Christofascist/Nazi propaganda sources.
J.D. Vance's pre-nomination Xitter account was following a few, too.
No one cared then either. White Nationalism has been the Conservative standard for centuries.
For cisheteronormative Western traditional reasons they're fine with straight people changing their names and identities whenever they want, but will pretend queer people should be excluded from this right.
Imagine the outrage if Christofascist moral panickers demanded JK Rowling answer to "Joanne Artantes". If they deadnamed her, ignored her right to self-identification, and insisted she eternally identify with her abusive ex because they don't believe in divorce.

a tan flyer with red text and blue accents that says Walkout for healthcare reform. December 21st, 2024. This Saturday 2pm at Washington Square Park. The healthcare system is the real terrorist threat.
I don’t know if this is a real demo but people are circulating it and, crucially, they’ve edited Luigi Mangione into Che so for that reason alone it’s important to make you all aware of this call to action this Saturday:
Always has been
Yes, body dysmorphia related to early puberty is still treated with elective hormone therapy in the US, the UK, and the EU and no one says anything because that's how segregated healthcare works.
He blocked me, but I've no idea why.
All I did was suggest his obtusely suggest his "journalism" is financially motivated and that he doesn't actually care about childrens' health.
"If third graders can get used to the constant threat of murder, so can you!"
It's the same moral panic
1 You're not reporters. You're filler for corporate infotainment
2 If you cared about pediatric medicine, you'd do something about elective natal circumcision in the US and its 10,000 injuries per year instead of moral panicking whether a kid's being treated for body dysmorphia or gender dysmorphia.
Won't someone think of the credibly accused predators and traffickers in Trump's inner circle!?
An ad from my Xitter feed posted by a verified account. Elon's a Nazi enabling bigot, he's fine with Nazis and bigots, or he's so incompetent that he doesn't screen for Nazis and bigots. Regardless, he's gone full mask off.

HBO has declined to renew “Sesame Street” for new episodes. The series that’s been teaching generations of little kids since 1969 now has no studio.
Please consider donating to Sesame Workshop to ensure the residents of 123 Sesame Street are still around to teach kids of all needs and backgrounds.
"54%" isn't "most", it's about "half" and it's based on a telephone survey of 1,011 Boomers who still have landlines in 2024.
The same survey says Biden had a 66% approval, Obama 84%, W 61% and Clinton 67%.
The best you can say is Trump beat his own high score from 2016 (40%).
"Echo chamber" my ass!
There is no "natural age" for puberty, there's just an accepted average.
The youngest recorded natural pregnancy is four years old.
https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/early-or-delayed-puberty/ https://www.nhs.uk/conditions/gender-dysphoria/treatment/
Compare the NHS's elective pediatric treatments of body dysmorphia caused early puberty and gender dysmorphia in trans patients.
Puberty blockers are simultaneously fine and untested medications that may cripple patients based on their identity.
If they're so dangerous why aren't they banned?
