I'm guessing 0 people will turn out at airports to protest Trump's trans travel ban.

www.theguardian.com/us-news/2025...

The end result of this is trans people can't travel to the USA without the risk of being permanently banned from entering the USA on grounds of "gender fraud".

Already know trans folks in high tech fields who will be cancelling plans to give talks in America.

Will they turn away people who wear the opposite clothes too ? Will women be able to wear shirts and pants ?

irony: my local airport "Muslim ban" protest was organized by a trans woman

Yes. The ACLU just filed a lawsuit about it a couple weeks ago.

Guess I can't change my gender marker, or name, or get back on HRT until my partner is up here with me in Canada as a permanent resident, or risk not being allowed to visit him. Fucking fuck.

So fucking maddening.

Jesus. As long as they still let us leave. I pray.

I'm hoping it doesn't get bad enough that other countries start expressly inviting us with refugee status, but... it's not looking great.

No country will accept American refugees because we are a "safe" country under international law

killerbuni.bsky.social•1 day ago

And, if it gets bad enough that will not be true.

geometer.bsky.social•1 day ago

I'd argue that it's already untrue but I'll spare the details. This is an ugly place & I will never forgive these hateful people as long as I live.

I just called my Senators and was *quite* unhinged about this. Sickening and disgraceful.

Are the relevant groups organizing protests?

The immigrant groups were on it like a flash last time.

There is a transgender unity rally at the Capitol on March 1st. Planned before today, but definitely a good venue to protest this.

This is gross. But the cruelty is the point. It always has been.

I’m sorry 💜 😞

Hmmm LA Olympics organizers may be other good folks to reach out to.

Oh Little Marco. Is this the hill to die on?!

Are airports the best place to protest it?

dot-stevie.bsky.social•1 day ago

An airport wouldn’t be a good venue. The Muslim travel ban hit mid-transit for some leading to chaos and coverage.

I'm sure I'm not alone here but I know trans people from countries that have oppressive policies on trans people, who worked very hard to get to the USA so they could transition, who are going to be very hurt by this.
