#AntiTransHateMachine
Today my team and I at @translash.org launched Season 4 of our investigative series #AntiTransHateMachine. For over a year looked at how Christian Nationalist and authoritarian forces are working together to destroy public education from the inside out using anti-trans hate.

There’s an assault on democracy from the ground up using anti-trans hate to undermine faith in public schools, the most common democratic touch point in America. Next week me and my team expose this coordinated attack in the 4th season of the #AntiTransHateMachine. open.spotify.com/show/0NuHlGN...
Book bans. Anti-trans attacks. A war on our schools. @imarajones.bsky.social investigates in Season 4 of Anti-Trans Hate Machine: A Plot Against Equality, premiering Oct 14. Listen wherever you get podcasts.

The Christian Nationalist and authoritarian forces behind the anti-trans sports cases are happy about the result, and that should worry everyone who wants an open, democratic future. Check out @translash.org #AntiTransHateMachine for a deeper dive.

In my reporting on the anti-trans attacks on schools for this season’s #AntiTransHateMachine I stumbled across January 6 insurrectionists who believe that there’s a traitorous conspiracy which uses trans kids, and who want to declare martial law. Vic Mellor is one of them.
In the new season of Anti-Trans Hate Machine, @imarajones.bsky.social traveled to FL to explore the interest that January 6 insurrectionists have in local education races, motivated by anti-trans politics. In June, she sat down with Vic Mellor, a far-right activist who breached the Capitol.

I and my colleagues @translash.org have detailed this for six years through the #AntiTransHateMachine podcast series. The fact that no one at the paper put on a pair of headphones to listen to it, so that they could report this story accurately, is astounding.

The new season of Anti-Trans Hate Machine is here. From anti-trans laws to book bans to “school choice” schemes, the far right is using fear to dismantle public education and democracy itself.

@imarajones.bsky.social exposes how anti-trans hate fuels it.

We unpack this in Season 4 of the @translash.org #AntiTransHateMachine where we show how the authoritarian project is not complete without destroying public education.

Have you ever heard that the New York Times is real shitty to trans people but had trouble finding a detailed breakdown as to why? I have a story for you!

Thinking about transphobia, Jewish community, and Christian Nationalism. Feeling grateful to the @translashmedia.bsky.social team and @eladn.bsky.social for their work. Wondering about Abigail Shrier's trans friends...

Season 2: Episode 4. Listen to it.

The NYT gets zero credit for trying to retrace how conservatives came to target trans people. The Anti-Trans Hate Machine is far better and also looks at how establishment media - like the NYT - gave hate a platform.

Some of these candidates have sent me text messages & emails asking for donations. Glad I didn't donate.

I vaguely remember Sherrod Brown from writing postcards to voters. Ick.
