I know people are very sensitive about the use of the word β€œgenocide” but the attempts to medically eliminate trans children is very clearly meets the standard because they are trying to eliminate a population and also they know some of those kids are going to kill themselves

I’ve had these same thoughts for a long time. Got them out into a thread recently.

When I'm upset that people don't read, I don't mean that in the liberal educator "if we just read we'd solve our problems" sort of way. I mean "there's a book which is in part about the death of 3rd person perspective, out for 2 years, and someone didn't read it before writing it as an article"

one of my mottos is "personal preferences are not ideology", and that has made my life so much easier when trying to talk about sensitive topics

Do YOU want to read about a trans girl getting up to sweet pervert stuff with, respectively, a married couple and a t-boy?
Well have I got something for you (transhet and queer and hot!)

#queerwriters check in:

Quiet weekβ€”my grandmother passed Sunday. Wrote a 6k short story and that’s about it. More work than anyone expects from me rn.
But I felt compelled. i loved writing it.

That’s Kind Of The Point, Dipshit
We have no actual idea how our consciousness actually manifests. So we have no ability to understand how it could be created artificially! This is basic stuff

Wrote a 6000 word cis/trans f/f short story this week. i also started another, that’s sort of a prequel? egg moments!
Writing. It’s fun!

Still amazed that I’m transitioning. That’s crazy. I take two medications and change my life. never thought I could be this happy.
If they want to take it they will pry it from my cold, dead hands

Pardon me for Platner discourse, but everyone seems to be leaving out the fact that this Nazi tattoo was inked in Croatia, which, during WWII, was a fucking Nazi puppet state that collaborated with Germany and the SS during the war.
everyone knew. That’s not in doubt. It’s hilarious to say otherwise

Where’s the empirical analysis? Where’s the surveys? β€œSeveral studies” my friend you need citations when you make these kinds of assertions

Trans kids deserve protection and love, and it’s up to us to show that to them. They deserve to know that they’re loved, unconditionally, and that there is a world beyond the hate and fear that pointlessly demonizes them.

Institutional transphobia is a terrifyingly powerful tool, and they are only sharpening their methods. it is incumbent on all of us to fight for them, defend their right to exist, and push back wherever possible to ensure they get to live the lives they deserve.

And I mean social murder in the most basic, visceral sense of the phrase. They want us dead, but do not have the courage of their convictions, so we get separated from anything that could save us, and we die or kill ourselves. It’s a simple, cowardly, politically clean method.

I’ve talked a lot about β€œnormalizing social murder”, in the Engelsian sense, when I talk about the reactionary rhetoric around trans kids.
You find a wedge, immiserate them, destroy their support systems, outlaw their careβ€”everything possible to kill them indirectly. Then you escalate.
