  • trans men are almost always treated as invisible in these conversations

    Seconded. There’s almost zero solidarity most of the time in the trans community when it comes to trans-men, who often get treated as though they should just vie for themselves. It’s almost like some sort of reflexive trauma of not wanting to associate with anything remotely masculine post-op.

    I’ve seen trans-men literally get berated and put down for being enthusiastic about anything remotely masculine, be it sports or clothing, 24/7 by other trans people. They fucking hate them.

    Insanely well put and underrated comment.

    I really want to be happy about the turnout for No Kings. I wanted to be, but I actually followed the coverage of several sites of protests. Most of them were over in less than 2 hours from what I saw. It was like a weekend lunch break for most people, and they even brough their infant children with them because they couldn’t be arsed with a babysitter.

    If anyone believes it won’t be back to business as usual in the Fourth Reich on monday they are delusional. You need to care a hell of a lot more than that to stop a fascist regime, and the horrible sad truth is that most Americans just don’t. They’ve been bred to be far too individualist to give more than the just bare minimum. The moment it becomes an inconvenience for them they’re over it.

    This was a PR stunt at best. A corporate email stating “We’re working hard to dismantle the regime. We have our best people on it. Pizza party next Friday.”
