On any of the donation threads where it came up and he replied to it, the most he ever did was some half hearted corporate PR “apology” (ironic)

    Can’t use public bathroom for their gender even if they look like any other member of their gender.

    Can’t use public bathroom for their assigned-at-birth gender because they don’t look like that gender anymore and it will feel - and be - unsafe.

    Can’t enter their country of origin because their passport does not match their gender

    Frequently harassed and ostracized, increasingly likely they will be denied healthcare that helps keep them alive

    We’re not playing the “who had it worse” game because everyone loses.

    But they are absolutely fucking oppressed.

      Where do you base this on?

      also i’m not sure if slavery and lynching are the same as being denied a bathroom.

        Base what on? The countless stories of transgender (and cis misgendered) people being harassed in and around bathrooms?

        The understanding based on real world experience that many transgender people pass as their gender, and therefore are clearly out of place in bathrooms meant for the gender that was assigned to them at birth?

        The executive orders attempting to erase the recognition of transgender people entirely and require them to have the same gender listed on their passport as they did on their birth certificate? The State Department not returning or renewing passports for transgender people?

        also i’m not sure if slavery and lynching are the same as being denied a bathroom.

        How many times does this need to be said? How many times do majorities need to fucking hear this about minorities?

        We’re not playing the “who has it worse” game because everyone loses.
