A 10 year old trans girl just won a preliminary injunction from a federal judge in the Southern District of Indiana against the enforcement of the state's new anti-trans law prohibiting trans girls from playing in girls' sports teams. ^_^

"The singling out of transgender females is unequivocally discrimination on the basis of sex, regardless of the policy argument as to why that choice was made."

Reagan. May he burn in Hell forever.

"As of today, July 19th, 2022, surgical and other medical interventions, which until now have been carried out on intersex infants and children, secretly and without consent, to “conform” their sex characteristics with the “typical” male or female anatomy have been legally banned in Greece. Today is, therefore, historic for the protection and recognition of the human rights of intersex people, in Greece, in Europe and in the world."

If there's drama going on, and you're not a direct participant, it's often better to observe quietly than to voice your take on it -- the resulting game of telephone can end up causing more harm overall.

I mean the fact that people with autoimmune diseases are being denied refills of necessary medication because those medications are also abortifacients (miscarriage-inducing medication) is obviously ableist and misogynistic violence. https://people.com/health/roe-v-wade-reversal-has-led-to-restrictions-on-medication-for-patients-with-autoimmune-disorders/

What I'd like to focus on, though, is that this kind of cruelty is not some kind of aberration but entirely consistent with anti-abortion ideology. If you truly believe fertilized eggs are babies whose lives should be protected at all costs, why SHOULD abortifacients be available to patients in pain, especially those with uteri? What is chronic pain and the disabling of tens of thousands of people compared to the potential ~murder~ of ~innocent babies?~ Why shouldn't people suck up preventable pain and immobility for the safety of the babies?

The so-called "pro-life" mindset is fundamentally anti-dignity and anti-human. Never forget that.
