What transphobia sounded like in 2010
‘How Evil Works’ (2010) by the editor of WorldNetDaily. In discussing racism, antisemitism, sexism, homophobia, and transphobia, the author of course purports not to perpetuate them, but he very much does.

Classic transphobia — since 1981
Classic anti-trans arguments in ‘The Spiral Path’ by David Fernbach. Trans people have genders, but we don’t uphold, benefit from, or depend on the gender system any more than cis people do. That’s transphobic disinformation.

Ironic fiction doesn’t tell you who trans people really are
It’s rough entering Grace and Rubie’s restaurant. Good thing it’s fiction. Janice Raymond brought up this fictional story in her 1979 book to describe what trans women are really like. That’s not analysis. It’s disinformation.

What does Tucker Carlson say about LGBT people?
If you know someone who doesn’t know, show them this. Fox News talk show host Tucker Carlson opposes LGBT rights. Where is the inventory of his offensive remarks that demonstrates this? I have created it.

‘Jurisdiction’ isn’t ‘child custody’
Though if it were, I’d say we should go look for the trans kids in custody. Republicans are mad about this. Perhaps they should take up their complaint with the trans kids they believe Tim Walz has shipped to the moon.

The Texas Republican Party believes in UFOs but not in trans people
What are you willing to believe ?In making trans people more visible, the Republicans intend to label us as ‘fake’ and force us into the closet. This is a Republican cover-up.

The Texas GOP platform is riveting(ly bad) political reading
I could not tear myself away from it. The Texas GOP’s “Temporary Platform and Resolutions” packs in a huge amount of religious superiority, prejudice, and self-contradiction.

January 6 — and transphobia — make some people feel empowered
They enjoy the illusion that they’re the deciders. Post-2020 Trump supporters believe they have the power to decide how others already voted—and, if they don’t get their way, they’ll force it.

Why the Republicans chose Mike Johnson
He’s been made House Speaker because he’s serving their goals. Their goal is patriarchy, white Christian nationalism, and unfettered environmental destruction. They will make elections obsolete if they can.
