It should go without saying at this point, but be careful what you post on social media, especially if you live somewhere like Florida.

Reposted from Alejandra Caraballo

A trans woman on tiktok posted about getting her gender marker changed on her Florida drivers license. Florida investigated her over it, canceled her license, and then leaked the story to libs of tiktok to announce it publicly to humiliate her.

Of course they want us to self censor, and self report, and obey in advance. Parker you are right we should be careful but that only confirms how dark this all is.

Also don’t use period tracking apps

Unless you’re an AMAB man. Then use the hell out of them.

50 years from now, just like my German relatives after WWII, the people who voted for this shit show are gonna pretend like they had no idea what was going on. Hilary was right: they are deplorable.

ultralib.bsky.social•54 days ago

JFC. I do not understand the cruelty and vindictiveness that drives so much of current Rep politics. Like, I'm sorry there's no joy in your life but can't you just work on that?

madebyjoanne.bsky.social•52 days ago

This kind of stuff makes me SICK to my stomach

Libs of TikTok or on par with terrorists - They promote hate and incite violence - and eventually self-harm.

They're horrible people. ABSOLUTELY HORRIBLE.

hippiefarms.bsky.social•54 days ago

TBH, this is one reason I got off FB. I'm in FL and feel like it won't be long before they start coming after us based on what we're posting there. We all know the zuck doesn't care about basic human rights

monica1971.bsky.social•55 days ago

Hint~Get Out Of Florida. Did you see what they did in their prisons? Forced Detransition. Gender Dysphoria is a short term psychosis!

windrose23.bsky.social•55 days ago

This is why I only post pictures of my cats.

lydmed.bsky.social•55 days ago

Yup we live in shitty State of Florida watch your back, I don’t get this impulse to share all on Social media as well, specially in fkn Florida

lauraleibman.bsky.social•55 days ago

So frightening.

charliepurcell112.bsky.social•55 days ago

Fucking bastards

michelle-cat.bsky.social•55 days ago

And this is why layered messaging is a big deal, no one ever came up with this before, and sorry I don’t think it could have come about before the age of AI, but the ability to have public and private messages anywhere is going to be a big thing

michelle-cat.bsky.social•55 days ago

If you don’t have the message key you can only see the public messages, there is no endpoints so there is no sender or receiver, theirs no social media posts to comb through nothing.

michelle-cat.bsky.social•55 days ago

Seems to be going viral in some cyber security forums so I am getting some good feedback.

michelle-cat.bsky.social•54 days ago

We leave our public spec open to how the implementer derives the message table , in our private implementation we analyze both private and public messages and derive an offset we build the message key from that

michelle-cat.bsky.social•54 days ago

This means that if someone manages to compromise the key they can only at most decode one message, this is no more a risk than a compromise of any decryption key.

angelica-reed.bsky.social•55 days ago

Florida is such a weird fking place 😭

iwillrobyou.bsky.social•55 days ago

Honestly, is there even a reason to have sex listed? Is a cop going to pull you over, think you look feminine, and then check to see if you are hanging dong?

iwillrobyou.bsky.social•55 days ago

Even if you are “anti woke”, what is a valid reason for it?

fmldrea.bsky.social•55 days ago

humiliation

veronikasimms.bsky.social•55 days ago

Trans people changing their gender marker hurts no one. Banning them from doing it ruins lives.They want to attach future anti trans laws to official identity. They can criminalize putting your gender on official documents as fraud, and then segment so many things based on trans women "being men"

veronikasimms.bsky.social•55 days ago

cisgender people just think it's a letter. They don't realize this is just one of the first steps to banning trans women from everything they need. Trans men too, but that will be collateral

jwilkinson08.bsky.social•55 days ago

Post-chemo, when my hair was still growing back, the cops “Sir”ed me several times… gender is, as my friend Sadie so eloquently put it, just a box that you check

orpach.bsky.social•55 days ago

I've always assumed it's for identifying people they're looking for.

Like having height, weight, hair colour, and eye colour on them baffles me as a non-US person.

iwillrobyou.bsky.social•55 days ago

In the US, our drivers license is kinda our go-to ID, so I can at-least understand someone justifying something like height on it (even if I still think it isn’t that relevant)

But I can’t think of a reason for sex being on it other than as a gender norm thing

happylocs.bsky.social•55 days ago

I mean what’s the point of not allowing it, it’s not hurting anyone.

mx-peacekeeper.bsky.social•55 days ago

Apparently, passports didn't have sex listed until the '70s, when the government started seeing long-haired men and want to further delineate identity because they couldn't tell at a glance.

dirigojoe.bsky.social•55 days ago

I can hardly imagine the depravity and complete lack of character from the person who wrote this letter.

suesswassersee.bsky.social•55 days ago

This is heartbreaking

daughterofwitches.bsky.social•55 days ago

Goes without saying- get out of Florida.

jarekfa.bsky.social•55 days ago

They're so evil!

pdxcharlie.bsky.social•55 days ago

It cannot be overstated. For MAGA, the cruelty is the point.

freemind62.bsky.social•55 days ago

oeqqabo.bsky.social•55 days ago

I'm not trying to be flippant when I say if you live in a place like Florida you should really consider moving to a state with a Democratic-controlled government if at all possible. There are options outside the expensive metros if that's a barrier. People need to keep themselves safe

sophialarkrose.bsky.social•55 days ago

Honestly, this is the canary in the coal mine about contributing any info online at all.
Online contribution is going to be weaponized.

dmp2you.bsky.social•55 days ago

Straight out of the Nazi playbook .. Wonder what they'll make lgbtq sew into their clothes . Asking for papers won't be far behind .

rubyscubereloaded.bsky.social•55 days ago

This is very cruel and disgusting what they did to this young woman.
I couldn't imagine how hard it is to be a trans woman, especially in such a hateful state that dehumanized her. You wonderful women should be free to do as the rest of us do.😭😭😔😔

pfournier33.bsky.social•55 days ago

Just vile people. I can't understand this level of petty hate

qua12.bsky.social•54 days ago

A wacko state government👍

abbylynn55.bsky.social•55 days ago

FL needs a new government

alystiria83.bsky.social•54 days ago

The misgendering in the libs of Tik Tok post made me cringe.

lasunshine.bsky.social•55 days ago

If you live anywhere.

melissadl.bsky.social•55 days ago

we need a LOT more pitchforks

parkermolloy.com•55 days ago

Florida's had this horrific, discriminatory policy for a year now. It's horrible, but should be something people in the state know. If you somehow got around it, don't post it on social media.

Why can't people just live and let live?

jael.bsky.social•55 days ago

Or DONT POST YOUR ID ONLINE EVER like it is opsec 101. this isn’t just a trans thing

reeseourso.bsky.social•55 days ago

Texas enacted same law in Nov without notice. Arkansas did it without notice, got sued, gave notice and changed the law.

fastballs.bsky.social•53 days ago

I don't think it was an act of the legislature, just Ken Paxton's attorney general office issuing a directive to DPS, right? The effect is the same, but it's not actually a law.

antifascistasiempr.bsky.social•53 days ago

I'm visiting family in Miami now, but I moved away bc of this and all the other fascist bs in this state.

miyukijane.bsky.social•55 days ago

god they are such horrible evil fucking trolls

nunyabizkness.bsky.social•55 days ago

I wonder what desantis lists his height as.

alicewinterland.bsky.social•55 days ago

This is horrible, but not surprising that they’ve weaponized the system like this

nhmadman.bsky.social•54 days ago

Fuck Florida. I live here and they can kiss my ass

samwalmd.bsky.social•55 days ago

Florida is the gulag of America

altiam.bsky.social•55 days ago

Wise words, online footprints last forever.

antifascistgeneral.bsky.social•55 days ago

Yup. This is exactly it. Every trans person needs to assume creepy bigots are combing all our profiles to make us look like monsters.

northsleuth.bsky.social•55 days ago

Sometimes you need to know when to hold them.

hopedisappointed.bsky.social•55 days ago

That reminds me, I wouldn’t be at all surprised if trump’s administration begins scanning SM in order to root out his detractors. Once he gets your name and address, then what?

kljinoz.bsky.social•55 days ago

Isnt leaking the story a breach of privacy?

loblaws-balrog.bsky.social•54 days ago

I can’t help but think that it wouldn’t be that difficult to shut chaya raichik up forever, saving countless innocent lives. Oh well. gonna go play mario party
