“Their calculation is the same as it was for Jews in the 1930s: It doesn’t matter if we end up in a homeless shelter far away, it is still safer than living under this fascist government.”

-Brynn Tannehill describes the human tragedies beginning to unfold under violently extreme Republican rule.

The End of Trans America Comes Into Focus

The laws proposed around the country by Republicans would make life for transgender people functionally impossible. The danger is in being under-wrought, not overwrought.

@alexwild " Texas and Florida have been drawing up secret lists of known transgender individuals, and state officials refuse to answer what purpose these lists might serve. Missouri, after effectively banning health care for all trans people in the state, set up a government web page “where people can report trans individuals and the people who help them,” but did not specify what it intends to use this information for." #trans #GOP #Nazi

@bok_bok_ba_gok @alexwild A really important thing for cis allies to be doing right now is donating to gofundmes for trans people who are trying to flee these states.

When awesome cis people want to know how they can help trans people, that's one of the most important things they can do.

Because that news is utterly terrifying, and I don't want anyone to have to find out what they want that information for.
