@freemo I'm not sure how I can feel safe unless I know exactly how everyone around me is shaped, genitalia wise.

@JonKramer yes knowing what everyones geneitals looks like is the right wings equivelant of a safe space.
@freemo sooner or later they are going to demand that the only clothing worn is body paint.
To protect the children.
@Pat I know what you mean, BUT also they are passing laws that fuck over actual trans people so it actually is important, and moreover when people in power signal that a minority isn't going to be protected, it gives cover to bigots and transphobes to do harm. so, we can't just ignore the shithead distraction tactics, but have to make it clear their rhetoric is stupid and shameful

I understand. That's why they pick issues like racism and homophobia and transphobia because the issue can't be ignored by those who are being oppressed, so it sucks up all the bandwidth and it works out for the rich and the wealthy and the politically connected because either way the controversy resolves, the plutocrats still protect their interests.
I feel that the only solution is a revolution to completely take down that regime. Remove those bastards from power and start over from scratch with a real democracy with the people in charge.
Instead of wasting effort on these separate issues that often result in zero gain, go for the big prize.
Those bastards are weaker than you realize and we're more united than the mainstream media would have you believe.
