war, transphobia
i guess that pretty much says it all
trans community: rallies round, does what they can to organise humanitarian aid, urges everyone who'll listen not to forget the people being bombed
the mainstream right: blames the war squarely on trans people, without even a hint of nuance. in an alarming number of cases, with even the same words.
folks, this is directed - and a prelude for (more) violent action against trans folk. consider the historical precedents. the fascists here think that the fascists in Russia have given them their chance.
stay safe, stay alert, stay together.
