OMG, the woke mafia is going after Marvel Rivals over racism, homophobia, transphobia, and so on: characters with too much skin, black characters with fewer outfits, reporting players. I really hope the devs don't come out with an apology for these trolls; everyone's always a target.

And there's a specific type of deeply opportunistic transphobia, directed at the Almost-Passes-But-Needs-Surgery trans people, I think uncanny valley related transphobia combined with opportunistic sadism of seeing someone near a finish line to escape the most common gravity field of transphobia

I do think there is a SPECIFIC TYPE of transmisogynist who hates the traditionally passable grey-zone trans woman a lot more than they hate trans woman who struggle with passing even after surgery, and that specific type of transmisogynist is the type that tormented me my entire life. #transphobia

The dem push towards transphobia by candidates in safe seats who have a comfortable margin is so when the midterms are a sweep because the GOP is falling apart the Dems can point to the transphobia and say "see, it works!"

all to appease their billionaire donors paying for our genocide.

Welcome to England! Sorry about all the transphobia...

Yeah, a few resister accounts have claimed that already.

But even if its "at best 5 dudes" its a stupid play: republicans aren't suddenly going to vote for a Dem just because they dabbled in some transphobia but it will cost them votes.
Seems like a good time to re-up this post. It is a list of 26 Dems at the statewide/national level that have made anti-trans statements or voted anti-trans policies.

I do not advocate for abstaining from all of the ones on this list, but if the worst offenders who call us “biological men,” I do.

Όλα όσα γνωρίζουμε για το νέο κουήρ θρίλερ του Κιτ Κόνορ   | Antivirus Magazine
Η κουήρ μεσαιωνική ταινία τρόμου «Rapture», με πρωταγωνιστές τον Κιτ Κόνορ από το «Heartstopper», τον Μάνου Ρίος από το «Elite» και τον Γουίλ Πούλτερ από το «Midsommar», βρίσκεται, σύμφωνα με πληροφορίες, σε στάδιο παραγωγής, ενώ τα γυρίσματα αναμένεται να ξεκινήσουν τον επόμενο μήνα. Το «Rapture» επικεντρώνεται σε μια «βαθιά, παθιασμένη σχέση» μεταξύ δύο νεαρών μοναχών, ενώ μια αρρώστια μεταμορφώνει τους ανθρώπους σε ζόμπι. Ο σεναριογράφος και σκηνοθέτης Τζόρνταν Τάναχιλ περιέγραψε το έργο σε συνέντευξή του στο Them, λέγοντας: «Είναι μια κουήρ ταινία τρόμου με έμφαση στο σώμα», προσθέτοντας: «Αφορά τον τρόπο με τον οποίο αυτή η μοναστική αδελφότητα αντιμετωπίζει την

It's the same for racism, homophobia, transphobia misogyny.

Shine a light on the shitty behaviour and the perpetrators duck back under their rock. But you keep the light shining.

this is perhaps an awkward question to ask but have you gotten any advice from older family about how to know when a pogrom is coming / when to flee town?

(I mean like OP said the transphobia in the united states isn't as bad as we're made to feel sometimes but)

I am a trans woman and somehow all of the socio-political stuff that really fucks up my personal life is class / economic stuff, lack of a social safety net, lack of public services, stuff like that.
Transphobia? It's there on the internet I guess
September 29, 2026 at 2:26 PM
Because a lot of them aren't Real (and like transphobia)
September 29, 2026 at 2:24 PM
You have to wonder, are the Democrats throwing now? Even the Third Way isn't on board with the transphobia, who is this even appealing to?
September 29, 2026 at 2:22 PM
Transphobia isn't "magic" as Republicans and right wing groups want us to believe.

“This could be a really important election for knocking Republicans away from that idea that (transphobia) is effective, that punching down all the time is a good strategy,” Don Haider-Markel, the U of Kansas prof, told me
September 29, 2026 at 2:22 PM
Transphobia, a U of Kansas prof told me, "is historically comparable to any point in history, when those in power are punching down at the weakest in society. When you concede to them these points, you’re conceding that it’s OK to punch down and letting them position themselves to ask for even more"

99.9% of people who aren't trans men: "pregnant man emoji LMAO"

tbf for some reason transphobia has a really hard time getting into German society. That thing in the anglosphere, where everybody left and right is super scared of trans folks just hasn't stuck until now like that. (which is weird because those people love to hate so much)
It really gives the game away when the anti trans orgs are calling the election of the neo nazi party in Germany a "glimmer of hope."

Some people live ignorantly, it feels weird to see sooo many people still enjoy hary potter. Transphobia aside do they not see the racism either??
September 29, 2026 at 2:08 PM
the background transphobia of my whole life rn mmmmmm
September 29, 2026 at 2:07 PM
—this mindset need to see a psych and work out what’s going on. Maybe they aren’t trans. But also maybe they are and have internalised transphobia. Or maybe they want to feel included more with their friends. Maybe they feel left out. Or maybe it’s something else. It could be any number of things

We love blatant transphobia in gaming :)

Playing @thewardogs.bsky.social and got stream sniped, team killed, and insulted over and over by multiple players. It got to the point where I couldn't bring a kit since I would be hunted by teammates and killed.

I think they got banned tho, but not fun.

The Guardian having got bored with mainstreaming far right evangelical American's transphobia is now helping the Russians select targets for bombing Ukraine.
Don’t worry, The Guardian said the National Academy of Sciences “has longstanding ties to Ukraine’s defence sector,” so you’re all good – bombed a military target after all. Big thanks to The Guardian for handing Russia an excuse for the strike.
