𝐿𝒶𝓃𝒶 "not yet begun to fight"Mar 11, 2025

I really don't know how to keep saying this so cis people understand.

The Nazis in 1933 came for trans people. They burned our libraries to the ground. They raided and bombed our hospitals. They declared our existence illegal. And then they put us in concentration camps and gassed us.

The Nazis in 2025 came for trans people. They're burning our books. They're raiding and bombing our hospitals. They're declaring our existence illegal. And they're building concentration camps.

There's no fucking nuance here. There's no metaphor to be found. There's no allegory. There's no need to draw "similarities" between the Nazis then and the Nazis now, because it's the same people doing the same shit for the same reasons. It's not "similar". It's the same fucking thing.

And if you can't see that, if you've had blinders on for the last 92+ years, I just don't know how to fucking help you with that. If you think the Nazi attacks on trans people are somehow "recent", blame a Nazi, because Nazis are the reason you think that.

@Lana Honestly, it’s frustrating. People can’t see what’s happening right in front of them. I’m genuinely terrified for the future of what’s to come. Thing is, I don’t think anyone is coming to save us from this. We have to save ourselves and that will probably be the hardest part.

@ais_wey @Lana Forget "can't" and instead read "don't" want to see what's happening right in front of them. It's willful ignorance because they fear that seeing it will make it real. Those who aren't applauding it just want it to not be real, and most choose to look away in so far as it's not affecting them yet. It's fine when it's done to "the other". George #Orwell remarked on that in his novel 1984, see attached picture.

@RandamuMaki @ais_wey @Lana *hold my scarlett letter* akin to the salem trials, people snitching on others to avoid the obsessive, oppressive persecution.
