@AlliFlowers @sickmatter @serge I've been posting about SA, Hamas, and Russia quite a bit and thought it a good idea to share a SA voice of support.

It was never about "protecting children." Banning gender-affirming care for all ages was always the endgame for these people. It was always a lie when they said it was just about children. https://michiganadvance.com/2024/01/28/michigan-and-ohio-gop-legislators-discuss-endgame-of-banning-all-trans-health-care/

@AlliFlowers @RVLara23 I’ve said it before, I’ll say it again. “Great” in MAGA wasn’t 1950. It’s *1850* — pre-Civil War, pre-Reconstruction.
So some dude continually insisted that a cis high school athlete was trans, even after being shown that said athlete had complied with the state's disgusting and draconian genital verification laws. Yes, said dude was banned from the event, but that's not the point.
Too many people warned EVERYONE that exactly this kind of harassment of trans AND cis people was going to become the norm, based entirely on the vibes of whoever wanted to do the harassing, but wat too many in the general public handwaved it away as unlikely or irrelevant. And here we all are.
These laws need to die.

Ok, Dark Brandon.... you need to arrest these folks. It's not political speech. It's insurrection. They need to be put behind bars in the worst prisons available while the courts take the week off. Oh, and send them with a complementary bar of soap with a note that it's for cleaning out their filthy mouths....😉

One of my favorite political action organizations, Swing Left, has announced a strategy for 2024. They're focused on 12 states that are critical to winning back the House for Democrats, keeping the narrow Democratic majority in the Senate, reelecting Biden-Harris, and building Democratic power in the states.
They plan to double down on supporting and building local grassroots groups, a key to current and future wins. It’s a great organization to get involved with.
