OK. How did I miss this? This how you do it. You meet hate and ignorance with joy and love and a little bit of civil disobedience. https://msmagazine.com/2024/12/05/trans-bathroom-ban-capitol-hill-congress-dance-party/

  We Heart: Trans Activists Stage Peaceful (and Joyful) Dance Party Protest in Capitol Hill Women’s Restroom - Ms. Magazine
  
  from Ava Slocum
  
  Anyone walking into the bathroom on Capitol Hill Thursday morning found a buoyant dance party in progress: A group of trans artists and activists staged a protest in a women’s restroom in the U.S. Capitol, dancing to the song “Meeting in the Ladies Room” by the all-women pop and R&B band Klymaxx. "It always starts with things that people feel are insignificant, like public restrooms, but it never stops there," said Hope Giselle-Godsey, one of the Capitol Hill dancers. "We're here today to ensure they understand that we will not be erased—one bathroom at a time—or shoved back into the proverbial closet out of deference to the comfort of those who speak to eradicate us."
