Please do not read this if suicide is a major trigger.

It has just been reported that a transgender person committed suicide today wrapped in a transgender flag in Syracuse at the VA.
These attacks are killing us.
This must stop.

We have to stay strong and support each other thru this 😭🤬
Living is already resisting. Let's make sure we do what we can to keep each other alive.

Don't get sad, get ANGRY, get REVENGE, get JUSTICE!
Death before detransition means living in spite of those a-holes and not going quietly into the night.
That trans person didn't have to die, blood has been spilled and it's on MAGA hands.
Veterans: dial 988 and press 1 or text 838255.

For me, knowing myself, having had access to trans care is enough. I love life now, even when I'm scared. But as a kid I struggled with this... I can only imagine what it's like for those who weren't & aren't as lucky as me.
I wish the world was better. Or at least becoming better.

I mean I can hazard a guess but if that guess were true, that's a lot of effort into trying to cover this up.
I’m angry at all the people who watch and do nothing. I’m furious at the ones who fundraise for their campaigns promising to help only to vote yes on bills revoking my rights.
Please, if you know anyone close to the edge, drop everything (even work that can benefit all LGBTQIA+ people and the most at-risk groups) and HELP THEM.
You cannot appeal to the empathy of people who have no empathy. You cannot shame people who feel no shame. You cannot _ask_ your oppressors to oppress you more nicely.
You have to have inflict actual painful consequences on oppressors every time they take our rights away.
Where I live it can be "2 years to never" to get meds. I helped dozens of people to access meds outside the system.
People will help you, just ask.
Sending strength and love to their family.
I understand the hopelessness.
STAY ON PUBLIC PROPERTY, but be visible.
Show them our numbers. Show them we are EVERYWHERE.
I'll be doing mine in Spokane WA on the 5th
Our goal should be to OPEN hearts and minds to our plight. Not play into stereotypes.
May this person rest in peace!
why not now?
too many dead trans women, not enough dead fascists.

Our country continuously falls short supporting its veterans. And its treatment of trans people is an absolute abomination.
I don't want to but I'm worried it might be my only option
They already are.
we cant let them reduce our numbers over frivolous shit.
This tragedy falls right at the feet of the Orange Menace.
The world would be a kinder, happier place with fewer transphobes.
May they rest in power
THIS
IS
THEIR
GOAL
it always has been and always will be. It’s not a side effect, it’s their goal. It’s why they are mad that you exist.
We beat them once, we'll beat them again, and he Will Not Be Spared when this is over
...
I'm going to be brutally honest. This could have been me on election night. I was seriously thinking of doing almost this exact thing. I only was able to stop myself because my fiancee was there to support me...
I’m glad you’re still here. 💜
This is my fear with my own loved one. The hopelessness that doesn’t seem to slow at all this month.
This administration wants us to eliminate ourselves.
I love all of my trans sisters and brothers. Please rely on your support communities. Things are bleak, but we must continue to be here. To live, to exist, and to love ourselves.
May that individual rest in peace
This community is here for each other. Reach out for your supports, your community, anything. No is alone in this. We share this attack together, we endure this together. ❤️🏳️⚧️❤️

More of these are coming and it was all preventable.
They died because they have lost all hope in the country that was supposed to be about "freedom" and because they were afraid that the system would never treat them equally.
Conservatives are murderers.
My heart is aching. I'm sorry that you have to report on this today (or ever). Your work is important, never forget that.
May they rest in peace.
i just want people to be better to each other.
generally things are less hostile here than the UK and far right is so far less dominant, but ireland is quite heavily influenced by the US and UK so we’re very much still vulnerable to transphobic trends from those countries
