Least surprising news ever.

Of course the NYT sees the "DEI" stuff positively & is neutral on anti-trans discrimination
Comments
"The cruel obsession with transgender Americans – a minority targeted with disproportionate violence – is blatant scapegoating"
"Malice against transgender Americans is inexcusable"
They're there calling this sh*t out.

Them saying that trans people's rights (and soon legal existence) being destroyed and outlawed is completely inconsequential is unsurprising; and really it's very telling how very few with a platform care.
nty doing this is subliminal messaging atp
A couple of the writers appear to be MAGA cultists so their votes skew the graph wildly and neither write regularly for the NYT (about once a year).
To give an idea - one of them runs a conservative Catholic magazine.
Just about every topic is dragged to the right by them, especially the trans, DEI, and immigration ones because of course the transphobes are also racist d*ckheads.
the scores you assign by a factor that represents the amount of harm the policy change causes to impacted individuals. In other (more dramatic) words, committing genocide against a people numbering in the hundreds is still genocide.
Them saying it's inconsequential is a *good* thing.
E.g. Trump: the transes are destroying humanity, women, all of civilisation (consequential)
Stg the one thing our community hates more than anything else is allies and support.
And seeing as we aren't the centre of the universe, yeah. It's not consequential compared with the prospect of wwiii, mass deportations, and jettisoning all medical science.
Too many Americans are SUCKING at being human.
Trans rights are human rights.
Shame on you straight to hell.
So very wrong.

The majority say words to the effect of "it's unconscionable".

They've put us at the same level as the corruption and blackmail of a major political figure. Characterising that as "not that bad" is at best misleading.
Do not forget that Trump is not just going for us. He is going for anyone who is not a cis het white man.
We have to stick together because divide and conquer is so much easier if we do it to ourselves.

And here's the number demand she along with her transphobic team gets replaced:
866-273-3612
For they have no empathy.
Trans People have not caused any harm.
They deserve protection and compassion.
It's the oligarchs that are evil, they must be punished!
It’s not paranoia if the government is really coming after you.
For one brief moment in time
Our pink
Our white
Our blue
Unfurled across the sky
Unwritten in the clouds, so many names
So many names
I will scream my name defiantly into that vastness until I, too, return to dust

Or, if there were 10 people in a mandatory, in office, meeting and 9 of them would say ANYTHING to end the meeting so they didn't have to continue to interact with the 10th dickhead.
Probably not...
I re-subscribed last month just to bitch at them for their terrible takes
