I fucking hate this framing because, yknow, there are also Jews under Trump. I’m pretty sure the Jews living under Trump today aren’t like “wow all these Nazi salutes sure are not about me”

Trans rights—to free expression, citizenship, and basic dignity—are a bellwether for the rights of us all. What Jews were to the Nazis and “kulaks” were under Stalinism, trans people are under Trump. Once they start getting rounded up and put into camps, it won’t be long for the rest of us.

once again, the reason to care about minorities being killed is because it implies we will be next. Not because, yknow, minorities are being killed.
People should feel able to express the strong emotions they are feeling while at the same time folks like you provide helpful guidance and alternative perspectives.
My cousins are Chabad & Hasids and some are ultra-conservative. They all voted for Trump they have all excused Bannon, Trump & Musk etc. All in the name of "Israel" BS.
I will never forgive them ever.
Never Forget the fools didn't learn a dam thing. OMG
I hope we come to our senses. I have hope, unfortunately this country consistently proves me wrong
Erased and maligned under the theory that all this gender stuff is a Jewish plot.
1. Othering trans people
2. Obscuring the threat to disabled, jewish, immigrant, or other marginalized/not cishet white christian people.
3. Taking space from unity framing
Also, it's not either/or, we don't win one thing at a time. There are a lot of great scholars, past and present, who talk about this, I am not one of them!
Next, if you aren't familiar, start with "what is cointelpro"

I am being sarcastic.
People only see the antisemitism of their enemies and nobody wants to confront their own antisemitism
*but maybe your audience could use a reminder
We need to unify in opposition to Nazis destroying our government, not divide our opposition which only weakens us.
