Trans rights are human rights
Human rights are sacred
Pinned
Transphobia is top-down, billionaire-funded and orchestrated by professional provocateurs

Trans acceptance is grassroots and hugely popular

The older I get, the more my politics mature from childish, naïve beliefs like "the world is complicated and leaders have to make hard decisions" to more serious, adult principles like "hurting people is bad and helping people is good."

Related pet peeve: Google trying to be smart and giving me results for strings I did not search

I search specific terminology every day and any result that is not *about that exact verbatim word or phrase* is completely useless or worse

Automatically machine-translated reddit threads are the worst
I loathe grammar checkers. I don’t want you to mark ‘hard’ as an error because I could have used ‘difficult’; I want you to spot typos, missing words and mistaken words and THAT IS FUCKING IT.

Proofing takes a hundred times longer than it should because all the tools want to be smart. Eat shit.

Ze beweerden in de rechtszaal niets tegen transgender personen te hebben, want via-via kenden ze een transgender persoon met wie ze goed konden omgaan voordat hen in transitie ging. Uhuh, en na de transitie?

De internationale gemeenschap faalt in het beschermen van de Soedaneze bevolking tegen een dreigende genocide. Nederland moet onmiddellijk in actie komen voor een staakt-het-vuren en hulp opschalen voor mensen in nood.

volgens Yale is wat nu gebeurt in Sudan ‘de meest nauwkeurig voorspelde massamoord in de menselijke geschiedenis.’

hoe zit dat? wat is de rol van de Emiraten in dit verhaal?

en wat hebben Formule 1 en influencers hiermee te maken?

Happy Police Abolition Day!

A day to think about how we could build a society without authoritarian state-sanctioned violence. What if the laws against carrying weapons, harassment, assault, abduction and imprisonment applied equally to everyone, and not just to citizens?

Fascinating and insightful as always.
Hard recommend for anyone who cares about misogyny, queer persecution, racism OR the resurgence of fascism, all four of which are the central topic of this chapter at once

We often say 'same struggle, same fight' but damn, it's even more literal than you think
Today, I examine how the boundaries of the Nation are co-constituted by race, disability, and sexuality, but also---notably---gender and control over reproduction.

And ask everyone to stop saying transfeminism is 'imperialist'. For fuck's sake.

Nieuwe column! Cis mannen nemen steeds vaker borstverkleiningen. Super dat dat kan, maar hoezo kunnen cisgender mannen die behandeling makkelijk krijgen terwijl transgender mannen jarenlang door hoepels moeten springen? Dat is onrechtvaardig: zorg moet voor iedereen gelijk zijn.

Being openly trans is so cool, you'll make the world a better place for other trans people just by existing
To all the late transitioners out there:

Thank you for helping to normalize late-in-life transition.

Your openness took away so much of my fear, allowing me to finally see my own transition as a valid and hopeful possibility.

HR departments countrywide need to start treating gendercrit employees as potentially hostile. As soon as you are required to interact with one, you dust off the rulebook, you dot every eye and cross every t, and you assume bad faith at every turn.

They are a threat to every organisation.

The term “biological male/female” is a political term, and is not recognised by any medical experts, studies or organisations. But that hasn’t stopped the transphobic media and government interjecting it into common usage 😒

Many people are saying.

The entire trans panic is an elite affectation that violently and deliberately misreads the willingness of the general public to go along with it.

Transphobia is a luxury belief. Yes, ordinary people are often ambiently transphobic, but they have bigger things to worry about. The true believers are wealthy, powerful, influential, and face no real hardship that would force them to prioritize issues that affect them.
They genuinely don't have anything better to do. These are not people capable of great things. That she was so capable, that trans people can attain successes they must win with lies & slander, gnaws at them. Even when they win, for them it has no savor
