So it goes without saying, but let's say it anyway: the concentration of attacks on trans people isn't because trans people are the only people fascists hate (although they absolutely do hate them). It's because they're the people they think non-fascists are least likely to defend.

Didn’t Trump make a bunch of anti-trans executive orders in his first term too?
(And of course other groups have always been targeted too - it’s hard and not really constructive to pick out a single first group)

They are using children (AGAIN!) to emotionally and rationally blackmail people, especially parents.
The most nasty tactic, ever.
You think that fascists give a single fuck about women's sports? You're finding common cause with people who are unconvinced women should be allowed to vote, and you're taking them at their word?
If I say something like that it's always "Don't be overly dramatic, it's going to be fine!"
