I’m honestly shaken at the number of infosec people, particularly women, who are endorsing and spouting Russian transphobic misinformation about Olympic athletes with added hateful TERF rhetoric. In public, right in front of queer and trans peers. Some I used to consider friends. We all see all of it. It’s absolute hell for trans community members. We need to be calling this crap out for what it is.
@hacks4pancakes I’ll just say that I have a unique vantage point and it’s quite pervasive.
@jerry @hacks4pancakes I don't know if this is healthy or not, but one if my main driving factors in my brain for always wanting to go the extra mile at work is that I hope I can make people rethink negative things about trans people if they have those negative thoughts. Like if I do great work hopefully they at least have to have a little pause and be like well I still think they're a godless abomination, but at least they do good work.
