You know what bugs me? We grew up with all this lip service to the "horror and absurdity of the Holocaust", we witnessed the birth of a collective consciousness for humanity, rooted either in awe or guilt. We got existentialism, Hannah Arendt, the United Nations, I dunno what else came out of the short videos Eisenhower made public for the people to see. They made us think that the 1930s was a mass hysteria caused by the Great Depression and a good deal of Goebbels' propaganda. We now see state after state and country after country falling for this anti-transgender bullshit, and some of us do have an "aha" moment realizing that this is exactly how the Jews were vilified and targeted, and then there are those still thinking that TERFism is a matter of opinion around a divisive new "ideology". The moment you think its a novelty you have already fallen for it. Next morning you believe the litter-box hoax and join the choir of men condemning trans women in women sports. Even the details of pointing out the anatomical features is out of the antisemitic playbook, and then you have Rowling engaging in Holocaust denialism and using British libel laws to silence a journalist. Transphobes are crap people, because transphobia is rooted to a type of the Fascist personality, and I don't think it is an isolated opinion. Cis women should stay away from transphobe boyfriends as much as trans women do, because the saying is "an abuser will treat a trans woman in public as he would treat a cis woman privately". I have a dream, one day you should be kicked out of your job for being a racist, transphobe or homophobe, and not for being black, brown, gay, or trans. Until next time. Drop dead 'phobes!
