  No it isn’t. There are choices.

    So trans people being bashed because of amercancer is their choice?

      Why do you lie so much . Stop putting words in my mouth. Lying is a hateful act.

      It’s Australia’s choice to follow the news about the prejudices of America and the choice of foolish and misguided and even hateful people to act on those prejudices. We could choose to be ourselves, we could choose to report and focus on many European countries and aspire to have many of the same social policies.

      But I think the main reason American news and social movements, for the good and bad, are reported on and followed are because we share the same language, English.

        Your words. Don't blame me for them. Taste a bit off do they? I'd hope so.

        You said it's my choice whether the crap out of the US affects me or not.
        No, I don't choose the actions of others.

        So you try to blame me.. that's ironic considering that's what you just did minutes ago.

        You can try to repackage it but people can read what you typed.. unless you delete it.

        As for me, I am blocking you, I don't want transphobes in my life. You can blame me for that too if you want.

      The US and Russia are both cancers on this earth, Russia has bots that post anti-trans, anti-lgbtqa+, anti-women, racist shite, and the US laps it up.

      I agree with you on this. This is all so fucked up.

        The bots are so bad.

        You can tell when it’s a bot. They never offer solutions. They only offer hate and division. They never look for conciliation or understanding. It’s us and them. Victim and transgressor. There is no nuance, no history. They are quick to accuse, stereotype and name call.

        We're much more connected to the US than RU and even CN.
        We have US "talking heads" here from the US as well. Alas, all propaganda has some effect.

        I transitioned over 15 years ago and had no issue. I fit into society perfectly well.... until trump. That's where I lay the majority of the blame. I had ONE transphobe in some 14 years. Now my life is at risk.

        Of course certain politicians here are reading from his playbook and we have certain groups here that are US RWNJ's.
