People who support this know absolutely nothing about our history as a community and they should be ashamed of themselves.

Fuck them.

This is just a tactic to buy acceptance by throwing half the community under the bus (read: kill).

I just want to tell these people this: one day they will come for you too. And at that point, no one is gonna be there to protect you.

@Metamedia I don't know why, but reading this just makes me laugh. They really think that cutting us out is going to make them favourable to the elites or something? Or is this an attempt at drawbridging - they have their rights protected, so the rest of us shouldn't?

Either way, like you said: we're first. They're next.

@yassie_j I feel it's the former because one argument that is often made by these peeps is that the rates of lgbtq+ acceptance are now going down, and they see it as the result of all this "gender nonsense".

So they are probably thinking that, by cutting a piece of the boat, the titanic won't sink
Show threadYassie > moved to 0w0.isMar 10, 2023
@Metamedia is insane to think that this is a recent phenomenon in UK politics. Theresa May was pro-trans. The LGB Alliance have always existed, but they've always been seen as weirdos. Now we have a government with their friends in office. It's a top-down normalisation.

@Metamedia @yassie_j Well, they’re run by the same kind of people, unfortunately.

I feel like sitting on an island with every other landmass in sight being ablaze with roaring fire. And some people here are already playing with matches.

@orangelantern @yassie_j sorry to be so pessimistic, but this will eventually reach every country because the reality of the fact is that no one has an economic plan to solve the big issues we are facing now, so they just want to use our community as massive scapegoats

@Metamedia @yassie_j Hence the matches metaphor. Ofc this will reach everywhere. It's really hard to be optimistic, even without depression.

@Metamedia so bizarre to imagine that somebody could think it's smart declaring themselves a pitiful, cowardly quisling, ready to throw 50%+ of their community to the wolves. Surely they can't think this is a strong and sustainable position to be in?
Or perhaps they are so content with scraps of 'tolerance' and 'respectability' that they believe that once they've pulled up the ladder they won't immediately find a long knife in their back.
Imagine taking this stance and expecting anyone to forgive you once this is all over.

@rezzyreksya I need to dig it out because I don't remember the whole story, but this is not very dissimilar to how certain gay activists detached themselves from the trans community when they were trying to remove homosexuality/
Certain psychosexual disorders from the DSM.
