🧵MEGA THREAD: I'm tracking the far right anti-LGBTIQ groups targeting LGBTIQ events during Pride Month. Also, how are organizations, corporations, and lawmakers responding to the Trump Administration and Republicans' ongoing efforts to erase and criminalize the transgender and queer community.

Can confirm that my NSF grant "How False Beliefs Form & How to Correct Them" was cancelled today because it is "not in alignment with current NSF priorities" Shocking that understanding how people are misled by false information is now a forbidden topic. Our work will continue but at a smaller scale

Truth vs. lies. Who can tell the difference??? Hint: It's the PURPOSE of journalism to make the world LEGIBLE so that the people can meaningfully self-govern. #bothsidesing truth & lies isn't journalism. It's ANTI-journalism.

it is crazy to me that we have pundits, pollsters and democratic strategists staring directly at trump diving head first in a quagmire of a scandal and insisting that it is bad politics to make hay of it

Van Hollen: This case is not just about one man. It's about protecting the Constitutional rights of everybody who resides in the United States of America.

I’d share this far and wide, with the preface that these are not ‘myths’, these are intentionally spread lies exactly like the bigots were spreading about gay people or black people or just pick a minority. The tactics and lies are the same. The hate is the same. The bigots are often the same, too.

A beloved Florida teacher was fired after honoring a student's request to go by a different name because the parents didn't sign off on it. Right-wing media usually love defending teachers who defy policy in favor of their own beliefs. But not this time. www.mediamatters.org/education/ri...

So a few years ago in DC, I volunteered with a group called FORCE to help them install quilts made by survivors of domestic and sexual violence. It was a beautiful and commanding display of strength and community, one that had me thinking--what would it look like to do this for trans rights?

TDOV feels as complex as ever. On one hand, the U.S. government is actively trying to legally erase transgender people. There's the impulse to stand firm. On the other, the years of "debate" which has only gotten worse leaves a lot of us browbeaten and wanting to be left alone.

I feel like it's not out of the question to speculate that this new anti-LGBTQ movement (with specific emphasis on anti-trans) could logically evolve into an effort to push cis women back into being submissive housewives if left unchecked.

Trump's attack dog(e) just nixed a study on alternative menstrual products over an offhand mention of trans men. This comes less than a year after a study found arsenic and lead in dozens of the most commonly used tampons. Is this protecting women?

Worth a mention here that Lawrence v Texas, which overturned anti-sodomy laws, was decided only 22 years ago.
