I am so, freaking, tired of this trans discourse
I am so frustrated and alienated with people who think it’s wrong to consider the actual harmful effects on *people who need this space for support* of spending every waking moment expecting your extermination by the state

Like, I get it: your friends have made you believe genocide is coming
And it’s hard to go against your friends
I know because *that’s my whole problem*

Like, people are repeating BLATANT FALSEHOODS like that the Biden Administration has not taken any actions to support transgender people, and the fact that I know factually this isn’t true makes me a pariah
The fact that my post-traumatic stress is triggered by hearing these forecasts of extermination repeated over and over again and treated as fact by people I care about, people I see as friends, and that me bringing this up is treated as an affront, is deeply hurtful AND SCARY
