"Back in August of 2016 I created a list of 19 ways that the Nazis pushed Jews out of society[...] By my count, Republicans today are attempting to achieve all 19 of these effects but attacking trans people instead."

Ngl, this article paints a pretty grim future for America and especially for trans Americans.

  • You’re leaving because you’re a weak ass little bitch. Stand your ground, fight back, don’t let them steal it.

    • Don't be an asshole. Staying or going is an intensely personal decision. "Fighting back" can cost a lot, up to one's life. If someone isn't ready for that--and that is understandable--then they shouldn't be coerced. There is no shame in packing up and leaving.

      If you're staying, then part of fighting back is encouraging and helping those who are unwilling or unable to find the exit because if we are being very honest, the chance of coming out of "fighting back" alive is not very high, especially if you're a vulnerable minority.

      And yes, I'm staying.

      • My Grandfathers, and Great Uncle’s all fought against this shit, willingly. If you’re unwilling to defend our freedoms then you get what you deserve. Even just speaking up for others. But running away….. sigh….
