Sometimes you just have to clear out a bunch of links (Trump/Musk LGBT hate)
Sometimes all you can do is clear out a bunch of links. I’ll be doing this a few times this week.
Honestly I just deleted a bunch – things which have had more coverage more recently, for the most part. These are hate campaigns which are already being forgot, and/or which haven’t received the coverage that they’d’ve received in previous times since… I don’t know. World War II? Hard to say.
Should I stay or should I go now? The process of placing your triplines on whether you need to flee your country.
Federal Court Rules In Favor of Forcibly Detransitioning Transgender Inmates In Florida: In the final days of 2024, a federal judge in Florida’s Northern District issued a ruling rejecting a preliminary injunction against a new Florida Department of Corrections (FDC) policy targeting transgender inmates. This policy, introduced on September 30, 2024, frames gender dysphoria as a “short-term delusion,” restricting access to gender-affirming care, permitting hormones only in “rare instances” deemed constitutionally necessary. The FDC bulletin also suggests psychotropic medications and psychotherapy as sufficient alternatives to medical transition, ignoring widely accepted medical guidelines.
Supreme Court takes up case claiming Obamacare promotes “homosexual behavior”: Don’t laugh it off, this is still in process and it’s by the guy who got Roe v. Wade overturned. His claim is that treating AIDS is a violation of Christian religious rights because it saves the lives of LGBT people, and by making same-sex relationships between men not be a death sentence, “promotes homosexual behaviour.” Yes, it’s another example of how the American fundamentalist movement considers LGBT existence to be the unforgivable crime.
My Child Is Trans. Here’s How We Can Protect Their Rights in the Trump Era. This is about states protecting LGBT children in general, and trans kids in particular. Understand that this wasn’t just an initial burst of hate that has been set aside; as I am writing this, Trump is threatening Maine over their continued refusal to hurt trans children.
On Day One, Trump Pits His Administration Against Trans People. Well, yeah. As promised. That’s what’s going to happen when the goal is, in their words, eradication.
A triptych of passport articles:
Note in that last one, “God-given sex, which was decided at birth.” This is purely an order of religious hatred – or as the courts have been putting it, “animus.”
Trump maligns trans service members, diversity, learning in discriminatory EOs:
On Monday evening, President Donald Trump took direct aim at nondiscrimination and diversity in the military in a pair of executive orders that include a discriminatory provision declaring transgender people unfit for military service.
Both orders have names that have nothing to do with what they seek to do, so I will note their formal names just once.
In the first order, named “Prioritizing Military Readiness and Excellence,” what Trump did was discriminate against trans people.
Here’s the order itself (whitehouse.gov link). It drips with contempt and hatred.
Here’s the order trying to ban health care for anyone trans under the age of 19.
Here’s the order trying to ban schools from supporting trans kids in any way. Unlike the above, it’s also implementing a defacto whites and men-first policy in all education.
Marco Rubio May Have Just Banned Trans Foreigners Seeking Visas From US Entry. This, along with multiple cases of abuse by border authorities, was followed by several European countries issuing travel warnings against travelling to the United States. This is the goal.
Mainstream media paved the way for Trump’s anti-trans policies – OPINION: Years of questionable coverage manufactured consent for Trump’s executive order targeting gender-affirming care. Sure did. Echoing bullshit, amplifying bad-faith bullshit and lies as equal to science, facts, and truth; all the usual complete failures of modern American political media.
Military issues policy banning trans military service, implementing Trump EO. And no, there is not any kind of “exception.”
Part of the “rewrite truth to match our lies” programme: CDC orders mass retraction and revision of submitted research across all science and medicine journals. Banned terms must be scrubbed. This applies to a lot more than LGBT people, but it certainly includes LGBT people.
This EO mandates Department of Transportation to prioritise areas with “high birth rates” and marriage rates. This is part of the “rural white people first” agenda, and is also kinda about eugenics.
Pentagon revokes travel policy for troops seeking reproductive health care, including abortions. This makes it harder for military families to get any kind of reproductive health care in red states, which is also about controlling sexuality, women, and eugenics.
