@robang74@ieji.de @hypha@cafe.mycelium.locahlo.st @ratsnakegames@mastodon.social In many states (not all) the laws about drivers' licenses were changed so abruptly that it became illegal to drive to office to get new license issued. People face huge fines for using the bathroom that corresponds to their gender. So a trans man who has a beard and well-developed upper body musculature 💪 is mandated to use the women's restroom. That's not going to end well. (Or he could stay home out of sight, which is the goal of the legislation.) Books with trans stories or by trans authors are being withdrawn from libraries. Physicians are being blocked from providing gender-affirming care. And federal law is reaching into the states that had been considered supportive. These days, the US is not a safe place for trans people, and I am very glad to be able to draw attention to ways to get to safer places.

@robang74@ieji.de I sort of knew that I was making a mistake by giving you the benefit of the doubt, but I appreciate you taking the time and effort to clearly affirm that for me, so I know not to waste my time trying to educate or inform you. Also, I want you to understand that I'm reporting you not because we disagree, but because I perceive you as being here for the purpose of either trolling or even as a paid professional advocate. It will be up to admins to make determination.

Hey @tor@ieji.de, Just wanting to flag this user for you. I didn’t want to make this my instance’s moderation problem, and I read your rules, which this clearly violates. Transphobia and harassment of people in the thread who have made it clear that this discourse is not welcome. User: @robang74@ieji.de

@robang74@ieji.de @hypha@cafe.mycelium.locahlo.st @ratsnakegames@mastodon.social @AnotherJen@mindly.social Being trans is not a choice. I would not have chosen to be trans or a woman in this horrible and sexist society. Especially because we have to deal with jerks like you

@robang74@ieji.de @hypha@cafe.mycelium.locahlo.st @ratsnakegames@mastodon.social @AnotherJen@mindly.social the amount of utter bullshit in one message is astounding. Drenched in falls narratives and a complete lack of understanding of how hard the attacks are raining on trans people and how many lives are ruined by things you so casually defend.

@robang74@ieji.de Spend more time learning what is going on here in the us. The Lemkin Institute for genocide preventions says the US is in early stages of a genocidal process against transgender people. This is very real. This isn't a joke nore is it just some internet debate. People are losing their healthcare. They are being labeled as domestic threats and targeted by federal law enforcement just for existing. Federal prisons are now experimenting medically on trans people. This isn't a joke, this is very scary. I am guessing you are just misinformed and thought you were correct but you are very much not correct and you are debating against people who are facing potential eradication by their own government. It makes you look infinitely cruel and out of touch. You really should apologize to everyone in this thread.

@robang74@ieji.de @hypha@cafe.mycelium.locahlo.st @ratsnakegames@mastodon.social @AnotherJen@mindly.social Bro im not reading all of that. Its cool that they give priority for trans people who might escape to Canada. Its the decent and human thing to do.

@robang74@ieji.de I think Canada's govt does perceive such an emergency, but they are currently bound by a 2002 agreement that would, by most current interpretations, forbid them from acting on that more overtly. (This is technically in review right now, I believe, but I'm no expert.) This might be a half-measure that's immediately available to them without major legislative or judicial action.

@robang74@ieji.de @AnotherJen@mindly.social There is, in fact, an emergency against those people in the US. The US regime is increasingly hostile to trans people, and there have been a significant number of laws passed that target trans people (48 such laws were passed in 2026 so far, with 773 more under consideration, of which 122 are national laws). These numbers were sourced from https://translegislation.com/ It's a matter of record that the leadership of the USA is actively targeting and dehumanizing trans people, and these actions are considered human rights violations. I think that you'd agree that victims of human rights violations should be fast-tracked, to allow them to more rapidly escape the country that is oppressing them?

@AnotherJen@mindly.social we're crying. this is going to save lives. we didn't seriously expect this kind of help. (it doesn't affect us personally but it will affect our community, you know?)

@robang74@ieji.de for the benefit of anyone else reading the above expression of hatred: the US doesn't have an agency called "NHS" and never has had anything like that. this person may be thinking of the UK? most countries that aren't completely sadistic do have national health services, but the US has never been in that category to Roberto: thanks for your input. goodbye forever.

@robang74@ieji.de @ratsnakegames@mastodon.social Oh look. Some advice from the country that murdered people for being homosexual not that long ago. Tell us you've learned nothing without telling us you've learned nothing. Actually, don't.

@AnotherJen@mindly.social I don't know how I feel about my country being a "backup plan" but I am super glad that the feds are processing trans folks as urgent because, well, it is.

@AnotherJen@mindly.social Sadly, I apparently have zero Canadian ancestry. We have NON-ancestral relatives who became Canadian, but none who are ancestors. Canada needs to revise its asylum rules, because the ones they have now were adopted in 2002, before the current dangerous insanity going on in the US.

@AnotherJen@mindly.social Just noting that in order to benefit for expedited treatment you have to ask for it expressly by explaining your situation. Just in case it can help someone!

@AnotherJen@mindly.social This is factual, one of my friends here in Virginia is finalizing arrangements of this for his trans son right now. It's such a relief to everybody. He is heading up there this summer and starting college.
