This is a Nazi move. Stripping people of rights, invalidating their IDs, setting them up for criminalization and imprisonment.

It seems all Kansas-issued trans drivers' licenses are invalid, effective tomorrow
It is now illegal for trans people to drive a car until they surrender their license at a DMV (that most will need to drive to) and have it reissued with the wrong gender marker

Please sign!!! Credit card companies should not be policing content. The effect is the criminalization of LGBTQ+ voices.
Once again, there is an ACLU petition specifically made to stop Mastercard from unlawfully policing adult content. It’s getting pretty grim for us out there. Please sign and/or spread the word.

it's so fascinating to see some feminists insist on criminalization as a solution while also recognizing that criminalization hasn't worked so far.
Moving aside the carceral logics throughout this piece, I find it so interesting that normalization of choking never gets tied to dark romance books? I can't tell if the author just doesn't know how big the "hand necklace" trend is. This was a trend on tiktok!
