Hm. At the moment right wing extremists have turned trans people into scapegoats they can use to achieve their other goals, as in forcing all LGBTQA people back into their closet, engage in racism without being criticized and controlling the bodies of all women. What we see in America right now is Fascism, plain and simple. This is not democratic conservatism.

Here over in Europe Putin is now waging all out war against Ukraine, as he sees the country as an outpost of Western liberalism, and he is using LGBTQA people and "gender ideology" when paining this threat. Trans people are now doing their best to get out of Russia .

Yet here you are complaining about transgender activists trying to save their lives and give you the opportunity to live the quiet, unremarkable, life you are dreaming about.

We we have seen this before. In the 1930s Berlin became a haven for queer and trans people. The Hitler came, and good people did not do enough to stop the absolute evil he represented. It did not take long before queer and trans people were sent to concentration camps and killed.

In a Fascist state there will be no quiet and unremarkable lives for trans people. There will be no realistic discussion about priorities. There will be no life at all.

So stop repeating the right wing and TERF talking points about transgender activists and gender ideology. Start fighting the real enemy.
