  So you’re fine with being federated with nazis as long as you can ignore them, but leftists who call you out on your transphobia is a step to far.

  I don’t have any questions here, just stating what a despicable pile of dog vomit you are.

  I don’t know which of you folks is doing this, but your “impersonating the world’s most clueless and brainwashed liberal” bit has gotten way too elaborate.

  It’s fortunately not as bad as that everywhere, and there’s also different developments. A pretty large part of society is becoming more accepting of us, not just tolerant, but actually caring and genuinely curious and willing to help where they can. I’ve had overwhelmingly positive reactions when i came out, i actually have more and deeper friendships than i used to, there’s loads of wonderful, kind, supportive people out there.

  But there’s this backlash at the same time, and in the areas and milieus where that’s happening, it’s really terrifying and awful.

  Here’s an overwiew: motherjones.com/…/anti-trans-transgender-health-c…

  Also i know a ton of older trans people who were already out 20 years ago. There’s more of us not repressing our transness today, sure, and just 5 years ago i would’ve agreed with you that things have improved massively, but the last few yeasrs have been outright terrifying, there’s a very real backlash against trans rights and it is bankrolled with a ton of money from reactionary activists in the US, but also Brazil, the UK, the EU, Russia and the gulf states. Hate crimes are increasing,t his years’ pride season was full of attacks and vilification as well. Queerphobia is taking over as the right’s new favorite form of bigottry. Things are getting rough out there, i’ve regularly seen requests about migrating to Europe from American and British trans people during the last year, until the majority recently changed to posts like “im stuck in Florida and can’t leave, what happens to my body when i can’t take HRT (hormone replacement therapy) anymore?” Talks about where to move to when things turn south are fairly common among us nowadays, as are plans to arm and organize for community self defense.
