So increasing the minimum wage to a livable wage is “socialism”? But Amazon union busting, keeping wages low, and forcing workers onto public assistance while its founder increases his net worth by $7.9M an hour is the "free market"? Perhaps this could be a WaPo opinion piece.

To be clear: this was a chat room where trans people discussed medical procedures and surgeries. There was nothing "pornographic" about it, except in the imaginings of the bigots who deem every aspect of trans life pornographic. This is a purge of all trans employees, and nothing less.
