It's incredible how it was revealed that the anti-trans push over the past decade was concocted in no small part by a literal PEDOPHILE CONSPIRACY and the reaction of transphobic lawmakers, journalists, academics has been a shrug and a "well, we gotta
carry out the orders from pedophile island"

X is absolutely cooking the brains of the entire political class that remains on there. The ones who think they're immune are probably the most affected.

FBI once again (!) confirming, in public, that they plan to make being transgender a federal crime - and it's crickets at best from the Democrats and the media.
Kash Patel: "We looked at the facts and the evidence. We saw a stream of violence related to transgender ideology that led to unfortunate deaths and assassinations, and we took action."

Just in case you didn't believe we were detaining 7 year olds for 2 months in child concentration camps across the country.

Save the evidence everywhere for the trials.
ProPublica published children's letters and drawings documenting their sadness and suffering at Dilley. And Dilley staff are now retaliating by confiscating kids' letters and drawings.

The main reason for it is if someone's an activist (i.e involved in political action of some kind that might affect other people's lives) they cease, at least in the eyes of editors, to be a private figure who might not need their lives invading for chatting online with other people.
The phrase "trans activist" is goofy because like 95% of the time it's used it refers to a trans person simply existing.

Media, pointing at a woman buying a coffee: behold, a trans activist.

Woman: buying coffee is not activism stop being so fucking weird

Media: trans activist criticizes media

They’re lashing out with increasing desperation and vulgarity because they already know that their time is limited.
Someone doused Renee Good’s Minneapolis memorial and a nearby pile of wood with gasoline and started a fire at about 9 p.m. Tuesday.

This is the kind of thing white supremacists have been doing to Emmett Till’s memorial for decades.

It’s wild to see them do this to a white woman who the entire world saw extrajudicially murdered.

The answer is that the guards would be trained not to see those children as human beings, let alone children. That’s how monstrously depraved they are.
Imagine this is your job.

Not just guard at a concentration camp for children - the specific guards who are tasked with stealing the drawing supplies of children to punish them for speaking about their lives and to silence them.

How would you look at yourself? How would you not eat a gun?

It seems kind of big to me that the U.S. Deputy Attorney General just tacitly admitted that the Trump Administration is hiding evidence of an international elite pedophile rape conspiracy that included the sexualized torture, and even murder, of children. And why? Well, the president was involved.
The fact that Deputy Attorney General Todd Blanche publicly stated that DOJ excluded all images showing “death, physical abuse, or injury” from Epstein files is almost certain proof that the images exist.

By withholding the images entirely rather than redacting minors, he is protecting the abusers.

Goddammit, this one hits hard.

Tom was such a sweet, kind soul, a singularly talented actor, writer and director, and a generous and lively interview.

He took me for a walk through a dodgy New York neighbourhood, saying it was safe because “the drug dealers are afraid of me.”
I'm not sure how much more of this I can take.

Tom Noonan was unlike any other actor. He made everything he was ever in more interesting to watch.

If you haven't seen his film, What Happened Was..., seek it out.

Tom Noonan gives one of my all-time favorite performances in Manhunter, his Francis Dollarhyde is pitch-perfect: somehow both utterly terrifying and heartbreakingly human. I still get chills when I watch this scene -- Noonan and Joan Allen are phenomenal here.

it’s insane that a decade ago we all agreed that giving mass shooters the attention they desired was a bad thing but now because rightwingers will quite literally lie about the shooter every single time we all have to be acutely aware of the shooters intentions and ideology

There is no drawdown. There is no retreat. ICE is just redistributing their assets to better avoid accountability.
The same day DHS announced the surge would end in Minnesota, ICE activity increased in small towns
The less densely populated areas outside the Twin Cities make it harder for protesters and observers to organize.
