Always remember they're going after trans people not because trans people became too public, not because trans people asked for too much, not because trans people had too many genders, not because trans people were annoying online.
They're going after trans people because they lost to gay people.

We did it before and so we know we can do it again. And we will.
And then they lost.

We are the prefect scapegoat.
Also the TERFs should watch out when they come after all women regardless.
Now, they all spew the same shit about trans folk.
12 years later, I realised I love people regardless of gender aka I'm Pansexual. 🩷💛💙
We're an easier target...but they're going after us, or anyone, because hating an other is preferable to hating yourself and the shitty conditions that made you what you are.
And hating rich powerful people with big bullhorns to convince others they're them too and the "other" aint, is hard.
THEN probably minorities currently considered white
Fascism needs scapegoats.
But yes, they're also mad gay people ever got rights.
"In Obergefell, five unelected lawyers robbed 320 million Americans of their legitimate constitutional authority to define marriage as the union of one man and one woman." The 2024 RNC Platform attacks trans people but doesn’t dare to mention Obergefell. There know they lost.
This is not over. US Queer people need to stand together or you will fall one by one.
So I'll say it now. If I "disappear" it is not of my own free will.
In a free society, you are who you say you are.
If some of us aren't free, none of us are.
They lost to gay people and we must remind them that the gays who beat their ass last time are standing between them and trans folks.
(Bi and nonbinary here, usually read as cis lesbian, and sometimes that means playing the "hey, about my trans homies..." ally role)
