trans ppl for a decade: these ppl are fascists and here is exactly how they’re going to take over.

the media & political class: ppft fucking wokeness.

*fascist takeover*

the media & political class: here’s how wokeness and the trannies caused a fascist takeover.

Am sure this piece is well intentioned. But if you seek to analyse the pushback against (eg) trans people without acknowledging the *vast* sums the political right spends demonising them you will draw many false conclusions. 🧵 on.ft.com/4ha0Cyt

Also do the media forgot that trump won because he literally "rigged the election" as he literally said in rally like 2 weeks ago

i read the fucking thing and it feels very victim blame-y

sloanefragment.bsky.social•22 days ago

the author is a transphobe.

...ah.

Claimed trans people (or as he called them ‘men’) ‘muscled into’ women’s spaces.

I mean, my legs are quite toned as i do about 90km a week walking but otherwise i am not capable of muscling in on anything

elizabethveldon.bsky.social•22 days ago

Underestimate - more like about 120km.

I mean, the idea that trans women "muscled into women's prisons" like that's a place people wanted to get into...

Can’t access it, i’m kind of glad.

Verrry tired of these apologists. It’s like by standing up to the bully you’re blamed for making the bully angry. It very much sucks.

Indeed!

Ive been seeing a lot of this. Steven fry was talking about how its the lefts fault.

Its something centrists say after being called out for allowing this to happen. They say "well if the left hadnt been so mean, i wouldnt have felt the need to support nazis " without an ounce of irony

Of course it IS the Financial Times so seeking anything other than simpering bootlicking within their pages is like... I dunno, seeking it in the NYT too at this rate, I guess.

This is exactly what makes me question my own sanity some times. The absolute lag time between our community pointing out the obvious for years, and the follow up gaslighting when it happens.
