The NYT's continued war on trans kids and families is particularly heinous right now because they're targeting a group who can not speak up without endangering themselves. It's watching a minority group hide and flee for their lives while running a 6-part series about how the other side has a point.

I want to remind everyone that without Elon Musk, we wouldn't be in this situation where our academic institutions, science enterprise, and democracy are being dismantled, and millions of additional people around the world are going to die. We want both of them to lose horribly in this fight.

crazy how so many mainstream news articles on Elon v Trump completely ignored the Epstein accusations lol. they're so blatant.

Let’s see if the MAGAs who’ve been slandering me & other queer people as pedophiles for years say a damn thing about Trump’s close association with an actual pedophilia network.

battle to see who kills themself first

no words 😭

I love how these guys all are afraid of saying the quiet part aloud that the only "Groups" they hate are those who oppose medically torturing trans prisoners, and the primary "engaged liberals" they disagree with are trans people. Conservative Democrats are extremely obsessed with trans people.

this doesn’t make anyone seem tough, it makes them seem too soft to be in politics

Not knowing about things doesn’t mean they’re not happening.

‘You can’t change sex!’ Is a belief. There’s no huge barrier biologically to this. Positioning male and female as polar opposites is a belief. Biology says that they are just barely different. Our genes are overwhelmingly just ‘human’. People need to own up to this belief.

“i hope the wrong kind of person loses their livelihood and struggles to make ends meet”

I still think this is one of the most gutting notes I’ve ever read.

reminder this guy is single handedly going to have killed millions of poor people across the globe, by the end of Trump's term.. So yeah. Democrats would work with 99% Hitler if it gained them politically.

He can go fuck himself, actually.

If you want to hear me audibly livid about Asheville city hall making life worse for literally everyone else — including the firefighters who saved countless lives during Helene — besides themselves and the wealthy, have a listen. #avlnews

Republicans say that the only people who are going to lose their health care are able-bodied adults without dependents and illegal immigrants. But The CBO says undocumented immigrants account for only 1.4 million of the 10.9 million who would lose coverage. www.independent.co.uk/news/world/a...

“Liberation Weekend was a celebration, but it was no party at the end of the world—it was the repeated insistence of a people under attack that the world they’ve created cannot and will not end.” Thank you @pitchfork.com for spreading the word of @liberationwknd.bsky.social. Here’s to next year?

Unbelievable www.nytimes.com/2025/06/03/u...

This group exists for the specific purpose of trying to get Dems to throw trans people under the bus.

The GOP bill would cut $1 trillion from health care. This would kick 10.9 million people off their health insurance. That, plus the expiration of the APTCs (and the other half of the ACA rule), lead to 16 million people losing health insurance, pushing the uninsurance rate up 4 percentage points.

63% of American adults had unfavorable views of Martin Luther King Jr in August 1966, per Gallup surveys 46% of Mississippi GOP voters said interracial marriage should be illegal in a 2011 PPP poll to push w/e is popular instead of trying to popularize justice is to admit you lack moral leadership

every time one of these transexterminationist op-eds pulls this shit out its ass it's important to remember that this blatantly ahistorical retcon only looks even remotely plausible to outsiders because our institutionalizing movement shamefully kept trans activists and our work in the shadows

bodybuilders who use anabolic steroids are trans. EVIDENCE: - frequently they are called unnatural freaks - they are subject to much mockery and scorn - many of them are stealth to avoid social shunning - they love hormones - they feel solidarity with each other - they have gay sex i rest my case.

I follow the news constantly and I have no idea why Democrats are talking about tacos. I can't even begin to imagine how sterile and weird of a message that is for uninformed voters.

So many people are responding to the contemporary political moment as though it is still 2015. This means adopting the same outdated tactics that failed to yield long lasting results even under the most forgiving conditions. And yet people cling to them like they're our only chance.

as I suspected,it's like the FBI is trying to intimidate providers more than anything else. It's not a crime to provide medically necessary care to children in need.

The FBI began Pride month by asking Americans to report doctors, hospitals and clinics who offer gender-affirming surgeries to minors, claiming that those procedures amount to child mutilation.

A lot of 'centrist' Dems have loathed how "small donors" influence the party (in opposition to large donors,backed by millionaire or billionaire oligarchs). They explicitly want to defang the Democratic party and make it a right wing party that has no popular support.

great idea !!

the way these guys talk about the ACLU and trans people is so wild. yeah trans people are some evil secret cabal of elites puppeteering the Democratic party and society,that's why almost no one I know can find stable income and is constantly facing down existential threats.

Putting my senators into my phone as contacts has made it MUCH easier for me to go “oh, I have 5 minutes, I’m just going to call my senators”
