"Back in August of 2016 I created a list of 19 ways that the Nazis pushed Jews out of society[...] By my count, Republicans today are attempting to achieve all 19 of these effects but attacking trans people instead."

Ngl, this article paints a pretty grim future for America and especially for trans Americans.

As another poster indicated, if nukes start flying I'm grabbing a drink and sauntering directly towards the expected point of detonation. Having it all be over very quickly doesn't sound too bad.

Up until that point though? I have already spent most of my life having to fight against society to make room for myself because I'm not wired to just fit in. That's going to be true wherever I go and I'm OK with that. However, I'm not going to put even more effort info trying to fight what appears to be a losing battle just for the sake of it.
