Evil that I can’t even describe.

New — The National Center for Missing & Exploited Children (NCMEC) was told this week by DOJ that they'd lose their funding if the org didn't remove any mentions of LGBTQIA+ issues from their public materials, I've learned. Staff were told they need to deadname trans kids in their reports to comply.

Remember that moment in the movie "Spartacus" where everyone stands up and claims to be Spartacus to protect him? Maybe all of us need to start identifying as trans just to gum up the works and blow the minds of these modern day Roman oppressors.

I'm at a loss.
Just don't even know how we're supposed to live like this.

genuinely nauseating

Hurting children, who are already in some sort of crisis, is up there on the horrible scale.

I really don’t want to use Handmaids Tale as an exemplar, but I’m tired and had an edible and it’s the only story I can think of where these kinds of rules are in place as a narrative device to show the viewer that these are fanatics who want to hurt people. Seeing it unfold live is terrifying.

im not entirely certain this wave of extremist reactionary conservative fascism is going to be on top forever. it may lose its cultural power like regular conservatism did during the dubya era

but i dunno if the US will ever recover from becoming a plutocrat banana republic

they want us dead so badly that they're chomping at the bit to make sure trans kids can't be rescued from the worst abuse

rozietoez.bsky.social•17 days ago

i mean, their demands serve no purpose except to make it harder to find missing trans kids and rescue abused trans kids. it's a deliberate sabotage when attempting to save a trans kids life. their only intention is to try to maximize the change of murder

They're also deliberately making detection and removal of CSAM harder, because they hate that it's illegal
