I’m a transgender woman and like most of our kind, I’m fucking horrified.

The Democrats are blaming us for 2024’s lossx

Trump signed an executive order criminalizing our existence

And I’ve had cis friends turn on me, telling me “People like you should have left children out of it, you’ve hurt your cause forever!!111!11”

I have no hope for the future, I feel truly and horrifically, cooked.

I just wanna know. Why did this happen? Why does everyone suddenly hate transpeople when Anti-Trans Policies were deeply unpopular as recently as 2023?

Why? Why? Why?

I just want to know, what did we do wrong? What changed? Why is this happening to us? When do the papers come saying they’ve “corrected my gender marker” or are they just going to drag me off to the camps instead?

I just… I’m trying to hold it together, and I fucking can’t.

    The sad truth is that the Democrats were never your friend. They treated your existence as political capital, and betrayed you the second it was inconvenient for them

    I would call this pink capitalism. Same as meta going from period protections inside men toilets to : “trans identity is a mentql disorder”.

    All in all, you can go back to : “ecology without class warfare is gardening” or “feminism without class warfare is personal developement”. Capitalism corupts everything it touches and if you are careless, then you will get alienated
