@robpike they told me i'd get more right wing as i aged. instead I became an anarchist.

@goatsarah yea, i've had that.

had two days now of trans mascs on Instagram argue that to talk about the patterns of behaviour exibited by men within our misoginistic society is to harm trans mascs and we shouldn't do it as #Trans people.

Is it just me or does this feel like #NotAllMen with extra steps?

remember when the #Tories tried to claim that the ONS had overestemated the number of #Trans people in the UK?

Well they where, unsulprisingly, wrong.

@yogthos as someone who has friends from within the pro-democracy movement in hong kong i find praise of chima troubling

@JohnShirley2023 @vantablack but, and here's the kicker, even this article could not find an example of this.

might it exist? yes but even the BBC, with paid researchers, could find not a single instance so, yea, i'd criticise any trans person doing this but there's no evidence of it happening.

what is true, however, is that trans people have a one in two lifetime chance of being raped, we suffer a higher instance of violence in both the street relationships + the workplace..

i mean, why are you following me if you think this anyway?

yea, gonna just up and block anyone playing the 'violent #Trans activists are stopping me speaking out!' line/ lie.

@BernieWonIowa that's stochastic terrorism for you.

as more and more comes out about #BriannaGhey including that her family had written to the school regarding the transphobic abuse she suffered the claims that this was not a #HateCrime become harder and harder to justify.

no motive can seem to be found for a #TransWoman who was bullied for months then killed in a targeted attack during a media storm of anti #Trans hate endorsed by the uk government? I think we can all think of a motive.

well would you look at that, trans athelites have no advantage over cis ones.

Well that's a shock.
