If you watch and support Harry Potter series, you are funding the anti-trans crusade that is killing people like me and stripping away our rights. Experts have warned that in the US and UK the steps toward genocide against trans people are accelerating.

Do you care about actual people like myself and our right to exist in society like you?

This isn't a trick question. Do the right thing please. #trans

But trans people shouldn't have to be philosophers and psychologists all wrapped up into one to have our experiences believed. 1/
