i have to say, as a trans journalist who has covered the "trans debate" for about a decade now, there is no daylight between how the trump administration and conservatives lie about tylenol and autism and how they've lied about youth trans care.

State AGs have released a video saying that they "will do whatever it takes" to protect trans people in their states.

While the message is admirable, they need to take the one step they have not yet:

Sue the hospitals that capitulate to Trump, violating state law.

the only actually existing forms of transhumanism are subsets of transsexuality and the hyperborean dream enjoyers are not happy with reality so they will rather kill everyone than let a girl have four arms and a pancreas that works

When the burgeoning neoreactionary movement was kicked off Less Wrong the vast majority of them very rapidly turned against transhumanism ("better to destroy all technology than let queers and brown folks use it") and started openly fetishizing becoming warlords in the smoking remains of civ.

the 2016 NC bathroom bill cost the state 400 million dollars & was called the most anti-LGBT law in the US. president obama called for its repeal. by 2021, state-level trans bigotry was so normalized that trans people started to lose everything from bathroom to healthcare access in 24 states.

"Universities are reviewing transgender equality policies after the University of Sussex was handed a record fine from the higher education regulator." [Times]

Reminder, those policies were to stop trans people being harassed and abused
Universities review trans policies after big fine Nicola Woolcock - Education Editor Universities are reviewing transgender equality policies after the University of Sussex was handed a record fine from the higher education regulator. Documents relating to the treatment of trans students and staff have been taken down or are being updated in the wake of the Office for Students (OfS) fining the University of Sussex for breaching free speech. Its investigation sprang from the treatment of Kathleen Stock, a former professor at the university, who was forced to resign after harassment over her views on sex and gender. She said many colleagues ostracised her or failed to speak up. After the fine of £585,000 was announced, Stock said that several other universities still held the same policies as Sussex. Arif Ahmed, the OfS’s director of free speech, said Sussex’s trans and nonbinary equality policy statement meant that students or staff wishing to express or discuss lawful views, including gender-critical views, could have been concerned about breaching that policy and facing potential disciplinary action. This policy required academies to “positively represent trans people and trans lives” in relevant course materials. Now several institutions appear to have reviewed their policies, according to Times Higher Education. One law firm, Shakespeare Martineau, said it had held conversations with several institutions because of the decision. Smita Jamdar, its head of education, said: “The main theme is anxiety that institutions cannot be sure if they are compliant or not.” The University of Leeds has updated its website to say the institution’s trans equality policy is being reviewed in light of the OfS investigation. Its policy currently says that the university would contain material that positively represents trans people and their lives.
