@talya@dybbuk.club that said, your post also does raise a FANTASTIC way to place the ongoing attempt at trans genocide into perspective that i hadn't considered. Obviously, genocide is by definition far, far deeper than simple blatant mass-murder- yet i find it far, FAR too common for people to deny the concept of a genocide of trans people on the basis that they aren't marching them out in the streets and murdering them. No- but they are destroying research (AGAIN, ALSO HAPPENED IN ACTUAL WW2 LOL), manufacturing a total media void that functionally allows them to manipulate and erase all elements of trans culture, discourse and stories related to us, building legal frameworks in which trans people can easily be marched out onto the street into camps once their current scapegoat of athletes and immigrants fails them, and once deportation is no longer an option for them- they will just as soon switch as the Nazis switch to the tasteless option once the "culturally acceptable one" no longer serves their needs. The only thing preventing this from happening with total success is the internet- and maybe that's the point of people like this? But i'm sorry, fuck you, a failed genocide is still a genocide. Do we need to forgive these monsters and not march them into a room and pump them full of lead like we would have for Hitler because "the internet saved us anyway"? Would Hitler have been forgiven if the holocaust happened today because his victims might have had the resources to mobilise and either escape or survive the onslaught because of the internet? Unfortunately i answered my own case just before, which is to say "anyone suggesting anything along these lines is beyond reason and is a tool of the fascists and should be met with bullets once the day for "Reason" to die comes along, same as they would have done to us"
