There is a couple billionaires that could afford to pay that out. Just saying.

It's so constant and I'm so weary.

Everything should be free for trans people for the rest of their lives.

I’ll be exceedingly generous and settle for free transition healthcare.

Here fucking here

Yes!

This is a good affirmation.

I need money, I NEED MONEY, I HATE BEING IN POVERTY

Seriously it's not like I can't do anything, trans people are specifically being prevented from making the best use of their abilities via discrimination.

At the absolute least, they deserve free healthcare. (We all do but trans folks deserve some extra special free healthcare.)

I say this with love to my fellow trans siblings, please consider how your black friends have been dealing all their lives with an entrenched system that also hated them way before we were more commonly known and try to check yourself before you start making tongue in cheek racist or ignorant jokes.

it's important to let the realization that compensation is deserved for how we've (white trans people) unduly suffered not lead to an acceptance for exploiting others but instead radicalize us in favor of ensuring those owed are compensated justly, especially the black community in America

I'm latina

I'm confused by what you are implying by this comment, I'm saying that you're right that people should be more aware of the ways that specific communities have been targeted and are owed reparations and that white trans women in particular need to let their realization of their own oppression 1/2

radicalize them into fighting for the compensation that is owed to people that have faced other systemic oppression as it is a shared fight rather than being a zero sum game to compete within

My hackles got raised at the "we" inclusion. I see your point and that is the intersectional support I do encourage. I'm not going to quote some of the comments I saw responding to OP that smacked of racism but I'm sure you saw some of them as well

Transphobia didnt start in 2019.

Cool. I transitioned in 2010. I don't think you're getting the racist or ignorant comments made in this thread getting lauded

Congratulations? If you want to call out racism then call out racism, don't tell people they havent suffered. You're literally making no sense. If you agree with me that transphobia isnt a recent phenomenon, then agree with me. Dont act like an ass when I'm right.

It sure would be nice

Indeed it would.

Seize the assets of the TERFs and hate preachers

Trans 👏 Reparations 👏 Now 👏

*ahem* RepHERations

No, I’d say trans men are just as worthy of compensation actually.

$10,000 a month feels fair

If Trans people are roughly ~1.4% of adults in the US, ~0.5% of Youth in US, ~0.5 % of the UK, ~0.3% of South Africa, ~0.33% of Canadian population, ~3% of germany, and ~0.9 percent of mexico. (totals up to 6.93%) I'm thinking $69,300 per month sounds a little better

I’m cool with this

I'm gonna spend that money on groceries, rent, groceries, porn, video games, more sexy boots, plushies, and a dog bowl with my name on it

Yes! At least a few million dollars for each Trans person who has been put through stress.

Honestly I would be ok with simple apologies and promises to be better but money is fine as well. I'd give to to people that need it more (I'm poor but I live decently comfortably due to my frugal lifestyle so).

I mean depending on the scale of this reparation I guess I could use money to buy a small trailer home and land so I could raise cool birds on it. That's about the only dream I have that's deeply out of reach.

yes, actually

Let's call the team from Leverage

I agree, .05% federal sales and payroll transgender compensation tax paid out monthly.

Also healthcare coverage. I'm about to get an ulcer.

I'd love to sue for reparations.

Please ;;

Yes, yes we do, and it should be backpaid. A lifetime of this fucking stress, we deserve compensation.

As someone who’s had to stop hrt I should be entitled to at least a 6 figure number

Worries over medication access including having had it revoked before make me incredibly paranoid about making sure I have a stable supply.
