One day for murdering Breonna Taylor? FU. Along with his efforts to distract us from his cover-up of Jeffrey Epstein's client list (we know you're on it Donald), Trump wants to wave it in everyone's face that he thinks people of color lives' are worth nothing. This is pathological beyond measure.

But the ideas are alligned. All surgery carries a high cost. Do Do you think the same about cosmetic surgery? Far more people have that. I'm an intersectional feminist and you're not. We won't change each others minds, but discourse is important.

I'm strong enough to face abuse in being called a rape apologist and misogynist. To me, it is a reflection of the fears of the name caller. I know it's false. A trans person is a human being with all the complexities of being human. By denying their identity, one is causing hurt and pain.

Once upon a time, that was (and still is) said about gay and bi people. Money, you say. How so? I don't believe in speaking over trans people. They experience this hatred. Tate, Trump, Yaxley-Lennon et al want people to think this about trans people. None of whom are feminists.

I mean, GC people are the minority. Everyone else doesn't seem to think that trans people are dangerous - oh and that their allies are somehow rape apologists. It stems from colonialism and, latterly, RW gutter media.
