"We’re watching the illegal seizure of government power by private interests in real time ... There’s no complex legal theory that makes this okay.

If you are a straight, cis person and you feel that fucking knot in your stomach about what the administration is doing right now to trans people and trans children, you have to at the very fucking least say out loud in front of your friends and peers in real life "this is fucked up."

Regimes that commit atrocities never say “we’re building a concentration camp”—they call it “detention,” they say it’s temporary. They don’t announce that they’re rounding up ordinary innocents—they call those abducted “dirtbags” or “criminals”. But make no mistake. This is what it looks like.
