WOW, Amanda #Marcotte minces no words when describing the fascist and #eugenic nature of Kennedy's 'health' plans.

- punishing people for perceived personal failures by putting them into labour camps.

- work full-time, presumably for little or no pay

-ideally in a "rural area" where they are denied most contact with family and friends.

- this vision of #labour camps isn't just vibes

- fits with Trump's fascist inclinations to "purify" the country.

"It all goes back to the nasty "they/them" tagline in the Trump ads."

Amanda Marcotte's illuminating, devastating commentary on the centrality of #trans hate to #MAGA. It made me rethink #Trump's perpetual use of "they." I always wonder who is "they"? Of course, it's anyone other than his #Christofascist followers, but after reading #Marcotte's column, I think it's a constant denigration of people who identify as they.
