Our power is out again. It's 12 degrees outside. Why do we still have our electrical infrastructure above ground!?!?!?

Fuck. I worked at a rape crisis center for 21 years. To say I am disappointed in RAINN is a colossal understatement.

Feels like they’re given trolley problem, lose federal funding or lose supporting queer people. But we won’t be the last, they’ll be more and more people like us losing support until there’s no one left and no charity. The plan is complete erasure of all support services that give victims help/voice

NCMEC I understand: For all their "independence" they really are part of the DoJ (and the courts agree: NCMEC is considered a state actor for 4th amendment purposes). These others, however, are just amazingly cowardly.

This is frustrating, RAINN was who I turned to last year, and because of them decided to file a report.

Destroy all of them and use their funding for a REAL sexual abusive prevention/crisis center.

They no longer deserve to exist. Let them die and we will build better from the ashes.

As I understand this is all because of "only 2 genders"? But they still can use other grouping (like age), so can't they just use something that will not directly say trans/nonBinary, e.g. some old fucked up things when things might have been considered as mental health issues?

(I understand it's harder than that but is anybody trying to still include this but obfuscate as something differetn?

thx3188.bsky.social•4 days ago

the only thing i've seen is either not obeying in advance and leaving it all there or doing malicious compliance and only deleting the words while leaving the surrounding framework intact so you know something is missing

the list of banned words was pretty annoyingly comprehensive

imposeren.org•3 days ago

so it's really a list of censored words? I thought it was more about mentioning gay/trans/non-binary in context of gender (I saw Trump passing something about "only 2 genders") not a complete ban... Doesn't this conflict with free speech regulations somewhere in your laws and/or constitution?

Thank you i'll link this in my article.

It’s horrific. We made choices with VAWA that people warned would have consequences, and here we are.

I can proudly say we have zero plans to remove or censor anything from our 501c3

RAINN did that? That's fucking depressing.

whybee90.bsky.social•4 days ago

So depressing.😔 Same happened with the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children. Polaris Project still has blogs with LGBTQ in them but I swear they had more info previously. Will have to check another time.
