““They dragged little Greta [Thunberg] by her hair before our eyes, beat her, and forced her to kiss the Israeli flag. They did everything imaginable to her, as a warning to others,” the Turkish activist ErsinÇelik, a participant in the Sumud flotilla, told Anadolu news agency.”+

The free press in the US gasps toward its last breath, as a transmisic terf propagandist is annointed with the title of "Editor in Chief" of the CBS News Division. See www.transgendermap.com/issues/topic...

The trumpism obsession with eradicating TGD lives from American society goose-steps forward...

A: This is a horrifying reminder of the deadly fascist sh!thole that my country has become. B: This young man's brilliant escape from these criminal monsters is the most heartwarming happy ending I've seen all week.

Latter Day Saints (Mormon) and Southern Baptist Convention extremists, with the Coalition for Jewish Values and Jewish Coalition for Religious Liberty, filed a hate-filled amicus brief that demands "religious freedom" to eliminate human rights of Transgender people. #bloodontheirhands

When the moronic competes with the despotic within a single skull:

TGD individuals and families are finally starting to fight back against corrupt universities and health systems that violate medical privacy laws to out TGD minor and adult patients to hate groups and rogue government officials, putting lives at risk.

Horrifying state of anti-trans terrorism behind guns and badges: Texas cops slam an unarmed Trans woman into the concrete so violently that the sidewalk under her face is deep with blood. This is why I cannot dare to visit my family and dear friends in these perpetual Confederate hate states.

Encouraging news: Dr. Gordon Guyatt, one of the principal "researchers" in the notorious anti-trans propaganda partnership between McMaster University and the hate group, Society for Evidence-Based Gender Medicine (SEGM), reversed his condemnation of Trans and Gender Diverse medical care.

Once again, the moronic becomes homicidal...

This is what's left of the nation formerly known as the United States of America.

Another disgraceful attempt at eradication of TGD people from participation in US society: as trump files an "emergency" SCOTUS motion to stay the current court injunction on his prior unconscionable policy of forcing misgendered passports on TGD citizens.

Vivian Wilson has emerged as a clear, cogent international voice for TGD youth and the truth about medically necessary adolescent care that is often life-saving. She is one of my superheroines of her generation. ... www.instagram.com/p/DO11Au_ErkG/

NEW: This is a story I worked really hard on. I spoke to four American trans people about why they're claiming asylum in Canada or the Netherlands. It's an eye-opening window into just how unsafe people now feel here — and what drove them to that point. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

What Trans and Gender Diverse people in the US are up against, from the bigots behind Project 2025. This will be a step beyond the McCarthy Lavender Scare and beyond Paragraph 175.

"next week’s cover of The New Yorker: 'Remote Control,' by Barry Blitt"

CA Gov. Gavin Newsom, a man of lofty wealth, power, and privilege, stealing the very last earthly possessions from unhoused people who have so little for a photo op to appease the right-wing. #fauxliberal #cosplaydem

While the trump regime slanders Trans and Gender Diverse people as a "threat to society," there are no kind words for Rae Rae Preston, a disabled San Carlos Apache Two-Spirit person who was murdered with horrific brutality in their Arizona home on August 23. www.msn.com/en-us/crime/...

"How Corporate Media Failed in The Aftermath of Charlie Kirk's Murder with Allison Gill" A recording from Allison Gill and THE LEFT HOOK with Wajahat Ali's live video www.muellershewrote.com/p/how-corpor...

Transgender people are over four times more likely than cisgender people to be victims of violent crime. bit.ly/transvictimized

What we're up against...with thanks to @jokestress.bsky.social for this timely profile:

Once again: Not Trans Not a person of color Not Democrat Not liberal Not Muslim Not immigrant...

"Killing Charlie Kirk was horrific. But we also must not sanitize the memory of a man who wished harm on those he disagreed with, and who spread a message of hate to anyone willing to listen or pay him to so. We can denounce the violent killing of Charlie Kirk without praising his abhorrent legacy."

In 1886, General (and Congressman and Senator) John A. Logan could not have foretold the emergence of a trump-like autocrat atop a south-centered insurrectionist core more explicitly, had he scrawled it in ketchup on a Kentucky Fried Chicken bucket:

It's just a sports ban. It's just a bathroom ban. It's just a healthcare for kids ban. It's just a military service ban. It's just a federal jobs ban. It's just a university housing ban. It's just a passport & visa ban. It's just one Constitutional right. It's just your status as free citizens.

The Anti-Trans National Legal Risk Assessment Map, maintained by journalist Erin Reed, reflects an accelerated collapse of fundamental human rights for TGD people in the United States, especially for youth and even in Democratic states previously thought to be "safe."

"Trump Must Resign Now" --by Allison Gill So say we all.

Kudos to Drs. Diamond and Rosky for speaking truth to lies in their amicus brief, filed yesterday. This is an important reference that stands against disinformation from those who promote harmful conversion psychotherapy abuse.

Gov. Pritzker makes me proud and hopeful for my birth state of Illinois.

Recent political history that demands to be remembered: California Governor and presidential aspirant, Gavin Newsom, once again bowing at the feet of a right-wing-nut influencer, belching hate and lies about Trans and Gender Diverse lives and health care. www.youtube.com/watch?v=5BBq...

Just released--the 2025 UCLA Williams Institute publication: How Many Adults and Youth Identify as Transgender in the United States? The entire pdf report is worth a read. However, the report lacks acknowledgment of its own limitations in surveying a hidden, persecuted population.

History will remember Dobson for his hate and malice. I do not mourn him. I think the world is a more decent place without him. Instead, I honor the countless LGBTQ2IA people who lost their lives to the lies, persecution, systemic bigotry, and stochastic terrorism that he organized and incited.

As a former Texas State Rep, let me be clear: LOCKING Rep. Nicole Collier inside the chamber is beyond outrageous. Forcing elected officials to sign “permission slips” & take police escorts to leave? That’s not procedure. That’s some old Jim Crow playbook.

Free Texas Democratic Rep. Nicole Collier!

Sad, disgraceful that Richard Branson is competing with JK Rowling for the UK's TERF Villain of the Year Award. This fitness club transmisia is part of a systemic, eugenic agenda to attack Trans health, deny civil rights, and ever worsen TGD mortality. www.thepinknews.com/2025/08/15/v...

For those in the U.S. who are safely able, please demand that your federal legislators vote "No" on Bills HR 3944, HR 4213, HR 4016, and the unnumbered FY26 Financial Services and General Government bill, until the genocidal sections that ban funding for TGD health care are removed.

Those who fail to learn the lessons of history...will doom the rest of us.

Forced, cold-turkey endocrine detransision of Trans people in the U.S. state of Georgia (and much of the U.S.) is hate-biased torture.

Sec. Buttigeig's August 5 interview with social media political pundit Aaron Parnas on the topic of Trans public accommodation human rights in sports fails to clarify the double-standards and both-sides fallacies of his previous public statements. aaronparnas.substack.com/p/interview-...

Terrifyingly accurate metaphor:

I can't wait www.dazeddigital.com/film-tv/arti...

"Tactical retreat"?? From my Trans perspective at the bottom of the social food chain in this failed democracy, the "tactic" of damning persecuted minorities to disfigurement and death for the purpose of favoring privileged classes is eugenic reasoning. History should forever remember it as such.

This new video, by EssenceOfThought/Ethel Thurston, is a thoughtful introduction to Raymond's role in eviscerating TGD healthcare policy in the 1980s and inspiring the anti-scientific lies of "ROGD" and "social contagion" that threaten TGD lives today. This is history that demands to be remembered.

Shame on my alma mater. Those of the past send outrage.

The LinkedIn corporation holds a near monopoly on web-based employment search and career networking services. After deleting its diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) web page in January, LinkedIn bows even lower to trumpism and Silicon Valley transmisia. See: www.advocate.com/news/linkedi...

This five-hour video mini-course, describing the junk-science, false stereotypes, and hateful politics behind the relentless attacks on TGD lives, health care, and human rights, is remarkably comprehensive and nuanced. www.youtube.com/watch?v=JiOc...
