i haven't been here for about a year, can someone explain what #nobridge means?

I've seen it in conversations about blocking transphobes since bluesky is currently acquiescing to fascists like jesse singal. / i've also searched the tag on mastodon, but i'm still confused.

I have no words.

Here's what Rula Jebreal had to say about this video: 'Fascism is thriving+socially acceptable in Italy. As Senate President La Russa recently bragged, “We are all the heirs to Mussolini.” Now, in Milan—Italy’s most cosmopolitan city—Mob of Neo-fascists are seen giving the Nazi hate Salute, without hesitation.'

One of the (dumb) arguments against acceptance of transgender people takes disagreement about the definition of “man” and “woman” as dangerous to a functioning society. Setting aside that this argument depends first upon confusion about the difference between gender and biological sex, the idea that we need to agree one this particular ontological fact is very odd when the people making the argument don’t say the same about other ontological (and metaphysical) disagreements.

The new #IPCC report out today shows how little is being done to curb emissions and keep the warming in check. It’s today’s profits vs our survival as a civilization, and our future is losing.
