Good news for our trans friends:

The European Court of Justice on Thursday ruled that European Union nations must provide transgender citizens with identification documents reflecting their "lived gender" rather than their gender at birth.

To translate this for non-EU people, it's the equivalent of the US supreme court (the ECJ here) ruling that states (the EU Member States here) must respect people's gender choices.

@joost Congratulations! Normally, my hope would be that this type of legislature would spread to the United States. With our current administration, I have no hope of that. That doesn't mean I'm bitter against anybody who is able to make use of this landmark decision! I wish you the best!
@AutumnBaum
Can't it be spread to America if another president besides Trump is elected?
@nuwagaba2 if that were the case, it's not that outside of the realm of possibility. Currently, he is in office until 2028. There is a backing supporting his third term, going against our country's constitution. There seems to be no respected boundary, protocol, or practice this man is not capable of walking over.
@AutumnBaum
According to the current situation in America forexample the violation of human rights by the ICE, the transgender violence, racism ,income inequalities and wars caused by Trump's regime, is there any possibility of a revolution that would change everything?
@nuwagaba2
That is my hope. Our system has failed, and it needs to be rebuilt. I am not in a position to fight for said revolution, as I am disabled, trans, and a transplant recipient. All I can do is this, and offer any help, support, within my skill set. There seems to be no organization to that end, however. We had 90 million people abstain from our last election, but I see no organization from said group. 90 million is enough to revolt. 90 million was enough to allow the greater of two evils.
@AutumnBaum
90 million is a good start. I have great hope that soon many people's eyes will be opened which will result into a great change. It's just about uniting people together against the same cause. Can I share with you about my project?
@nuwagaba2 What project is that?
@AutumnBaum
It's about fighting hunger in my community, I work with 12 young volunteer farmers to make this a reality by growing food for the needy, educate local farmers with advanced agricultural skills to help them improve on their production as well equip beginner farmers with required tools like seeds , fertilisers and organic pestcides to help them produce the best out of their gardens as well combat climate change through tree planting. Would you like some updates about it?
@nuwagaba2 That sounds like a just cause! I wish you the best in your endeavors, and I would help if I could. I believe that there's a beauty to returning to simple ways of survival. Not to mention, there's a certain satisfaction out of sustaining yourself off of your own work, your own food. Congratulations!
