Translation: "transphobia has a political cover and if we do anything about it, we'll get hauled in front of congress. So we'll just feed trans people to the trolls to make our lives easier."

This should be grounds for account suspension. Jesse has explicitly white knighted for kiwi farms. These are exactly the kinds of people he associates with. His presence on this site inherently makes it unsafe for trans people.

I mean if they keep Jesse Singal, that means libs of TikTok ban could be overturned, J.K Rowling can join and take space, And basically, the worst of the worst from twitter will be here too; making this place no different lmao

we can have a vibrant community of trans people or we can have Singal and his followers maybe that’s not a choice you want to make as a platform, but if you don’t make it the trans people will make it for you by leaving

Singal spread untruths about my relationship with Trans Lifeline during the 2015-2017 period (carefully couched as just his opinion/just asking questions to avoid liability for defamation) in order to insinuate that I deserved to be harassed and stalked by Kiwi Farms.

I am also a cis person who doesn’t want Jesse Singal and his transphobic lying bullshit anywhere near this site.

It is disappointing that @safety.bsky.app keeps unsuspending Singal, when he explicitly stated he's here to target a group who helped build this site into what it is. Not even pretending good faith. He's here to ruin the vibes and try to normalize harassment of trans users. This is fucked up.

Hi @safety.bsky.app really, seriously, ban Jesse Singal

Let’s stop being obtuse and asking does Jesse Singal need to cause life threatening harm to trans users on BlueSky before action is taken when people are citing articles and personal experiences and just so much information . Literally some obtuse shit going on

I genuinely want to know the exact reason why the mod team keep reinstating Jesse Singal & removing the labels from his account. Please do inform us, the trans people that made bsky get to this point, what *exactly* the reasoning is here.

If the bluesky mods aren't going to kick him out we've got to block him and his minions into oblivion. The trans community helped build this site into the amazing safe space it is for all of us, we can't let the site throw them to the wolves. Block. Those. Transphobes. Into. Oblivion.

Good article in the Indie by @billiegayjackson.bsky.social about the scandal of GPs refusing healthcare to trans patients If GPs are claiming lack of knowledge, they are incompetent & should not be GPs If they are claiming “beliefs”, they should not be GPs www.independent.co.uk/news/uk/home...

Another cis person against Jesse Singal who joined here and immediately started posting his fancy dressed up transphobic articles.

I’m actually a grown adult with fully formed thoughts such as “trans people should be allowed to just exist and have human rights without assholes questioning their humanity” and I don’t need to hear the opinions of anyone who disagrees with that. It’s not a debate and I won’t pretend it is.

Like people really say wait until trans people get subject to further trauma and have their life threatened before action can be taken despite past evidence? Like some of yall showing you don’t see trans people are people deserving to live. Get that fucking dipshit Jesse out of here.

Jesse Singal's life's work is laundering transphobia into language that that cocktail party set finds palatable. This technique attacks a weakness of liberalism and democracy, and it's being exploited ruthlessly right now. You have to treat the shtick like the thing it's pretending not to be.

Okay so billionaires are immoral but they only exist because of our capitalist system We are all stuck in this system at varying degrees because it has rendered us dependent How do you dismantle capitalism?

Jesse has spent the last six years promoting the notion that large numbers of children are transitioning without assessment — something for which there is no evidence. He should be treated like anyone else peddling a false and harmful idea.

I did a lot of mass blocking of white folks in the beginning of Blue sky for this reason especially around hell thread and threats to @aliafonzy.bsky.social What happens to the least protected happens to all and it's a constant escalation ladder

Bluesky allowing Jesse Singal back on here and he runs harassment campaigns and want Trans users killed. Literally, the ball fumbling is tremendous. But of course, I’m sure they are well aware of what they’re doing

i too am a cis who wants jesse singal gone

I, too, am a cis person who does not want Jesse Singal on here. He's a transphobe who has built clout & career out of disseminating alarmist misinformation. His work is not reporting or investigation. It's lies. He does not deserve a platform or the benefit of the doubt. He has shown who he is.

kinda feel like the Bsky team won't listen to trans users about this, so I'll say it as a Cis Person: I don't want Jesse Singal on here spreading his lying hateful "just asking questions" bullshit. he is not acting in good faith, he causes active harm, and he adds nothing worthwhile to this platform

Whenever I explain that almost 95% of the disinformation that gets laundered through mainstream media comes from 10 people who are all in the same group chat together, people look at me like I'm a conspiracy theorist. But it's true.

FYI @bandcamp.com is waiving their revenue shares on sales today (Friday), so it's a great time to check out my music! Most of it has been with my previous noise-pop band Bitesize. you can purchase our entire discography (36 songs) for a mere $10.40! bitesize.bandcamp.com

I have so much to say about today’s case, legal analysis, and more. But the most powerful thing today was watching Chase Strangio argue in front of the court as the first trans attorney to do so. You could feel history, and nobody will ever take that away.

The last thing I'll say on Skrmetti is that like many people, HRT saved my life. It made my life worth living, it gave me dreams, it gave me a tangible way to treat gender dysphoria, a condition I would not wish on anyone. If I could have fixed it sooner as a kid, I would've done it in a heartbeat.

So, that was it. Oral arguments in US vs Skrmetti is now in the history books, though the judgement won't come until June. I haven't read other commentary. Not yet. I wanted to write a thread of my impressions first, and see what the experts are saying afterwards. 🧵

I did a quick video on why the Constitution will prove to be useless if the Equal Protection Clause doesn't protect trans people. The post is unlocked. www.patreon.com/posts/if-equ...

Good news everyone! The Montana Legislature has just voted no on banning Rep. Zooey Zephyr from the bathroom. Representative Beady, a Republican, said that banning her would "only serve as a distraction," and “will only have the effect of making certain people famous in the news." Video here:

Lady in the next stall: Do you have a tampon? *passes one to her* Lady: This is a string cheese.

So a long long time, when I was very young, I got married to a guy after the second time I failed out of college, and we got along fine and didn’t have too many problems when he saw me as a dropout who was supporting him by working full time while he finished a college degree.

What’s a line from a book that you think about a lot? For me: “Many were increasingly of the opinion that they’d all made a big mistake in coming down from the trees in the first place. And some said that even the trees had been a bad move, and that no one should ever have left the oceans.”

Signal boosting. You never know who needs this kind of thing, and finding out after it's too late is baaaaaad.

I don't promote it as often as i probably should but I have a Patreon that I depend on to pay my rent and I would love to grow it enough to cover another large monthly bill. Without it, I could not be a professional writer full time. Would love any vouches or reskeets <3 Patreon.com/katelynburns

If you ever want to know why I bring so much fire to my activism is because I got started in the translatina community in NYC. We didn't have the luxury of respectability politics and the comfort of the privileged. Y'all need to here from mother Sylvia. youtu.be/sQ24XukdSkg?...
