Absolutely fed up with this country. My existence is only political because a bunch of hateful individuals make it so, and a lot of the rest of you tolerate their nonsense.
Be better.
Be better.
I want to make this into a long and heartfelt thread to illustrate how my existence is a genuine and valuable but the fact of the matter is I don& #39;t have the energy. Even if I come up with an impassioned speech which you all retweet, what changes?
Until people in the so-called & #39;reasonable middle& #39; accept that there is no & #39;trans debate& #39; and stop thinking & #39;oh it& #39;s difficult& #39; nothing changes. Labour have done NOTHING about Rosie Duffield. The Tories have done NOTHING about Nicholson/Doyle-Price. The BBC think we& #39;re a debate..
..and are absolutely riddled with people who literally are involved in the running of organisations which campaign against trans rights. They& #39;re ACTUALLY political and they do absolutely nothing about it. What do we do?
We can give you a million sob stories, hundreds of lives lost, ruined, lived apologetically or just never truly fulfilled - I can talk about sitting in the shower crying because someone& #39;s fucking 10yr old shouted abuse at me and their mum just laughed but it& #39;s just more trans...
...misery as currency. It gives the world another & #39;oh something must be done!& #39; before some fuckwit broadsheet wanker farts out another column scaremongering about trans people recruiting kids and it all becomes & #39;oh its so difficult& #39; again...
...I& #39;m not political, I& #39;m just an IT manager from Surrey who wants to kick a football about, go to the pub without worrying I& #39;ll get my head caved in and to occasionally be able to look in a mirror and feel something better than ennui. If that& #39;s & #39;difficult& #39; we& #39;re all fucked
