I've been saying what was happening to us trans people is anti-Trans genocide, even before my egg cracked two Augusts ago.
I can't thank you enough, Two-slurs. I don't use the term "genocide" lightly since I am Jewish like you are. However, I do think it is an accurate descriptor of what is happening to us.
After WWII so many people in Germany said they didn't know what was happening in the camps. But you knew that groups of people had their civil rights curtailed. You knew that people disappeared from their homes, entire families and neighborhoods. That wasn't done in secret. When people lose their civil rights then the govt. can easily argue for genocide. Oh sure maybe not in the open at first but it doesn't take much to get it going in secret. Especially if you surround yourself with loyal psychopaths who will do whatever you want. I'm terrified of the future.
When the government ships people off to Guantanamo and you do not cry out your opposition, you're saying that it's fine if those people are murdered. Because once they get to Cuban soil, there's no way that you can stop the government from murdering them.

Will definitely be covering this.

Ta, Crip Dyke. It. Can. Happen. Here. It's up to ALL of us to prevent it. Trans rights are human rights, full stop. Nothing else will do, ever.
Well said, Z.
