   "What if I told you that there was a nationwide bill currently working its way through the U.S. Senate which, if passed, could be used to censor LGBTQ+ content on the internet? And what if I told you that it has bipartisan support and that President Biden has indicated he would sign it?"

     @threetails @Fayedray@mastodon.social @charliejane that person has shown up in a couple threads that I've seen with consistently terrible and contrarian opinions, I think they are a troll or something

     Yay I am excited for him to sign the #KOSA Bill so #Trans #CSA survivors like me have more of a chance to be found and protected.

     And for corporations to be forced to stop marketing guns at children and selling their data for profit.

     Go Biden! Go #KOSA Bill! Go Senator Blumenthal~!

     @Fayedray @charliejane You know that the bill's co-sponsor, Marsha Blackburn, has said this is really about silencing people like us right?

     If, for example, Florida's AG sees trans content as "harmful to children," he could sue social media platforms so that it becomes too costly for them to allow us to exist publicly. They would be forced to silence us.

     You're acting against your own interests. This won't help anyone. It will just force us into silence. You aren't immune.
